Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Mermaid and Sailor in Chinese Junque by Ralph Cahoon was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2009. The result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 6,835.27) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ralph Cahoon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Luck of the Sailfish Club in January 2007 with an auction result of USD 96,000.00 (€ 73,857.52).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Mermaid and Sailor in Chinese Junque von Ralph Cahoon kam im September 2009 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 6.835,27) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ralph Cahoon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Luck of the Sailfish Club im Januar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 96.000,00 (€ 73.857,52).
