Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Square Stoneware Vase with Rope-impressed and Inlaid Design by Shimaoka Tatsuzo was sold in the Art of Japan: Online auction at Christies in London in December 2019. The price achieved of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,772.82) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shimaoka Tatsuzo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Rice-husk ash and copper-green-glazed square stoneware dish, which sold at auction in March 2001 for USD 4,935.00 (€ 5,611.78).
