Upper estimate price exceeded by 70 %.
The work The Finished Edge by David Diao was auctioned at Christies in Shanghai in October 2016. It achieved a price of CNY 780,000.00 (€ 105,024.63), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 70%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by David Diao; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Twin Dragons sold at auction in May 2019 with the realized price of HKD 1,250,000.00 (€ 143,062.16).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 70 % übertroffen
