Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Labubu With Dino Star Costume by Okokume was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in May 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 50,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 151,200.00 (€ 15,983.01). Admittedly, works by Okokume have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Eyes of the Soul (2 Works) in April this year with an auction result of HKD 69,300.00 (€ 70,768.86).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Labubu With Dino Star Costume von Okokume im Mai 2021 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 50.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 151.200,00 (€ 15.983,01) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Okokume auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Eyes of the Soul (2 Works) im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 69.300,00 (€ 70.768,86).
