Upper estimate price exceeded by 38 %.

The work `Aux Ombelles De Lorraine' Pair Of Armchairs And Double Seat Sofa by Louis Majorelle was sold in the The Gunter Sachs Collection Day Auction auction at Sothebys in London in May 2012. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 13,750.00 (€ 17,131.90), 38% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louis Majorelle achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Aux Orchidées' Desk And Chair in May 2012 with an auction result of GBP 145,250.00 (€ 180,975.11).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 38 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit `Aux Ombelles De Lorraine' Pair Of Armchairs And Double Seat Sofa von Louis Majorelle wurde im Mai 2012 in der Auktion The Gunter Sachs Collection Day Auction bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 13.750,00 (€ 17.131,90) und damit 38% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louis Majorelle erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Aux Orchidées' Desk And Chair im Mai 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 145.250,00 (€ 180.975,11).
