Overview

  • YouTube viewers criticized a perceived rise in €10 bidding increments, labeling early offers "lächerlich" and "peinlich."
  • After a proposed dice roll to decide a silver dice cup, Wolfgang Pauritsch rolled a six, yet Fabian Kahl continued bidding and purchased the piece for €2,500.
  • A Wilhelm Neumann‑Torborg bronze valued at €2,800–€3,400 drew offers only up to €1,000, so the family opted to keep the sculpture.
  • High‑value jewelry landed below or near estimates, with a 19th‑century gold bracelet and etui selling for €2,600 and an 8‑carat diamond brooch going for €3,200.
  • A purported Émile Gallé vase raised authenticity and condition doubts in the dealer room and sold for €400 versus the expert’s €500–€700 range in its current state.
