Wilsons Auctions, Ireland and the UK’s largest independent auction company, has received instruction to manage the unreserved online auction of the contents of one of Dublin’s longstanding restaurants, The Unicorn.
The timed online auction will start at 1pm on Friday 2nd April and will run for four days, timing out at 1pm on Tuesday 6th April.
The popular restaurant, operated in Merrion Row since 1938 and was seen as Dublin’s favourite Italian establishment, will see all areas of its contents go under the hammer from dining tables, chairs and large benches to kitchen equipment, décor and soft furnishings.
Ahead of hospitality re-opening and with a focus on outside dining, items that will be of particular interest to potential buyers include three recently installed large automated awnings, windbreaks plus a 6m x 3m custom-made tent as well as outdoor patio heaters, large flowers pots and more.
Lots will include a large selection of table and chairs, cutlery, glasses, cups, fridges and freezers, various ovens, fryers and kitchen counters. Other Lots will include a sound system, room divider as well as extra-large mirrors, curtains, cushions, pictures and paintings, large barrels and outdoor electric awnings.
