Overview

• An Art‑déco diamond ring from the 1920s, estimated at about €500, drew a bidding contest and sold to Elke Velten‑Tönnies for €700.
• A 19th‑century 800 silver Zuckerkasten appraised at €750–850 was hammered at €570 to Christian Vechtel after the seller pushed for a little more, prompting a final €20 raise.
• A roughly 100‑year‑old Rolex ladies’ watch valued at €1,000–1,200 went to Julian Schmitz‑Avila for €1,500 as he pursued the piece for potential follow‑on opportunities with the seller’s collector family.
• Two other lots underscored condition and maker appeal: a Samson‑Tabak figure missing its stand still made €150 against an €80–120 estimate, and a David Andersen enamel spoon set achieved €270 over a €180–220 valuation.
• On‑air dynamics fueled discussion as Julian Schmitz‑Avila withdrew a low bid on a set of vintage printing letters and advised the seller to try an online auction instead, leaving the item unsold.
