to Leonard Joel in 2014 or what I like
to refer to as “the economy of beautiful
things and interesting people”. Visitors to
Leonard Joel will enjoy an environment
that in so many ways retains the
original character and atmosphere of
a 19th century auction room but with
a commitment to provide each client a
professional, transparent and ultimately
enjoyable experience.
Since 1919 Leonard Joel has provided
private, public and commercial clients alike
a complete suite of auction management
services and the largest auction market for
the dispersal and purchase of art, objects,
antiques, jewellery, collectables, design and
interior furniture in the country.
From the identification and valuation of
single items through to the dispersal of
major private and corporate collections,
Leonard Joel has become synonymous
as an auction house with the broadest
specialist expertise and unparalleled local
market knowledge.
So whether you are selling or buying at
Leonard Joel my commitment is to ensure
that the market we create at every auction

SolD, 80 YEarS on
This important carved Carrara marble
sculpture, depicting a semi-draped
maiden, was originally sold by Leon-
ard Joel as part of the estate of Henry
F. Young in 1929, over 80 years ago.
We then had the great pleasure of
selling “Susanna” (Italian, dated
1890) again in 2010, realising a sale
price of $48,800 IBP.
Since 1919 Leonard Joel has been the auctioneer of choice for all the important Melbourne dispersals and our recently
renamed Specialist Collector department has been specifically designed to provide every seller of a collection a bespoke
solution with flexible and transparent pricing options. To explore our history of single-owner sales go to page 10-11

Australia’s only specialist photography department and auctions were conceived when the executors of the estate of Wolfgang Sievers approached Leonard Joel to conduct an auction of the collection of this Australian icon . Before this auction a mere $4692 of auction sales for Sievers had been generated in Australia but since this auction hundreds of thousands of dollars have been sold for the estate. Since the Wolfgang Sievers sale Leonard Joel has firmly positioned itself as the Australian auction market leader in photography with record-breaking sales for the artist Angus O’Callaghan and more recently the collection of Dr Dinesh Parekh.

February 10-13 the awarded, �The New Joneses’ eco-cool
lifestyle returns to FedSquare, when Ch7 Sunrise’s Edwina
Bartholomew lives the �new normal’ of an energy efficient,
no-waste lifestyle daily, in-front of a national TV audience. The
house will be open to the public Feb 15-16 as part of Sustainable
Living Festival.
The New Joneses proudly partner with Leonard Joel, who do a
brilliant job promoting the style, quality and benefits of second
hand and pre-loved luxury goods.
After realizing that sheets and towels in luxury hotels have
been used before, The New Joneses decided wherever possible
(with the definite exception of undies�) to buy everything they
can, second hand.
In-line with �new consumption’ (thoughtful, not wasteful)
Bartholomew’s clothes, furniture and home wares will all be
sourced secondhand, highlighting the benefits of extending
the life of existing goods.
In The New Joneses 8 star energy-rated house, (hydraulically
lifted onto FedSquare), Bartholomew and the Sunrise audience
will experience sustainable living tips, from energy efficiency,
the secondhand economy, reducing food waste, buying local
from Aussie producers, electric vehicles, living chemical free,
composting, maximizing resources, minimizing waste and
�growing their own’.
Bartholomew will learn to save money by measuring and
modifying energy use, eat food sourced direct from the farmer,
grow some veggies, practice home composting, keep chickens
and a worm farm and on trips where she can’t walk or bike
ride, she’ll drive a 100% electric car.
School kids will tour the house daily, gathering fresh eggs
(provided by the resident chickens) �closing the loop’ by
feeding chickens food waste and will learn to up-cycle and
repurpose existing goods.
The New Joneses are brought to life by Ecoliv Buildings,
Powershop, Farmhouse Direct, Gumtree.com.au, Nissan
LEAF, LEDified, Metropolitan Waste Management Group,
Earth Choice, Organic Care, Positive Charge, Sustainable
Living Festival, City of Melbourne, Vertical Gardens Australia,
