Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An Ornate Silver Ewer, A Gilt Chalice, Shells And A Quince, On A Partly-Draped Stone Ledge; And An Ornate Silver Ewer, A Silver Basin With The Judgement Of Paris, Shells And Flowers, On A Partly-Draped Stone Ledge by Meiffren Conte was sold in the Old Masters including Old Master & British Drawings and Watercolours auction at Christies in London in December 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 9,846.84) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Meiffren Conte - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A silver incense burner and sideboard dish, a silver-gilt ewer and vase with nautilus shells, a sabre and a jewelry box on a ledge draped with a velvet curtain, which sold at auction in May 2012 for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 34,
