Overview

• A Meissen‑decorated jewellery casket from around 1900, estimated at €1,800–€2,100, drew a bidding war and sold to Fabian Kahl for €3,200.
• During setup of a Mazzega/Murano lighting set, a glass element broke, prompting apologies; dealer interest then lagged and the sellers withdrew the lot.
• A 19th‑century diamond brooch valued at €5,000 went to jeweller Susanne Steiger for €4,000 after the seller had named just €500 as a wish price.
• An oversized Wilhelm II promotional pencil, estimated at €80–€120, sparked competition in the dealer room and sold to Roman Runkel for €250, well above the sellers’ €50 hope.
• Other segments saw abrupt exits after low appraisals or last‑minute reversals, underscoring how dealer demand and emotions can overrule expert estimates.
