The work Wrapping Bonbon by Laurence Jenkell was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art auction at Christies in New York in March 2018. The »bidding war« ended at USD 137,500.00 (€ 111,607.14), 72% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Laurence Jenkell - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bonbon Aluminum Polimiroir, which sold at auction in November 2019 for USD 325,000.00 (€ 294,945.09).
