Overview
- An ashtray from the Madoura manufactory was identified as a 1952 Pablo Picasso edition and sold in the dealer room to Anaisio Guedes for €1,600.
- A brooch attributed to Fabergé’s Hollming workshop changed hands for €5,000 after Horst Lichter clarified hallmark conventions that had made dealers hesitant.
- A 19th‑century diamond and pearl collier drew a bidding duel and sold to Lisa Nüdling for €5,500, far above the expert’s guidance to the sellers.
- High‑expectation pieces stalled: a Cartier Santos Carrée topped out at a €5,000 offer and was withdrawn, and a diamond‑sapphire ring was revalued to €3,000–€3,500, prompting the owners to end their appearance.
- Smaller deals underscored condition and niche demand, including a damaged Goerz exposure meter at €140, a worn Steiff ‘King Peng’ penguin at €250, a Victor Bonato Op‑Art mirror at €575, a mourning hair brooch at €400, and follow‑ups showing resales such as a cast‑iron motor model to a U.S. collector and a Schlotter animal bronze to a specialist buyer.
