Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2019 Phillips in an online auction held the auction HEATWAVE: Online Auction, which included the work 'Drop' chair, designed for the SAS Royal Hotel, Copenhagen by Arne Jacobsen. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,125.00 (€ 2,333.11) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arne Jacobsen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pair of Early Production Egg Chairs in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 44,518.49).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2019 führte Phillips in einer Online-Auktion die Auktion HEATWAVE: Online Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit 'Drop' chair, designed for the SAS Royal Hotel, Copenhagen von Arne Jacobsen zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 2.125,00 (€ 2.333,11) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arne Jacobsen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pair of Early Production Egg Chairs im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 44.518,49).
