Chapter 427 Sky-high Antique Furniture
"Ladies and gentlemen, this set of royal furniture from London, England in 1860, which originally belonged to the Baron of Notting Hill, is now up for auction.
The starting price is 2.8 million US dollars, and the minimum increase in the asking price must not be less than 100,000 US dollars. Bidding starts, 2.8 million US dollars, 2.8 million US dollars, which lady or gentleman should bid? "
Brad's voice is exceptionally loud and passionate! It jetted out at high speed, bombarding the eardrums of all the bidders.
Many European and American bidders in the audience have long been impatient, waiting for this moment!
Before the words fell, someone immediately raised the bidding number plate and shouted loudly:
"Brad, $3 million, I want this set of royal furniture!"
The bidder who raised his placard to call for the price was a caucasian old man in his fifties with a big waist and a big waist. He was very imposing and looked determined to win.
While asking the price, he kept staring at the pictures of antique furniture on the big screen and the auctioneer, his eyes were extremely bright and full of desire, wishing that Brad would immediately sell the hammer!
But this is just the beginning, how could he get what he wanted? Even if others don't object, it's impossible for Ye Tian to agree!
"No. 153, Mr. Keynes of Toronto asked for 3 million US dollars, now 3.2 million US dollars, 3.2 million US dollars, does anyone have an offer? This is antique furniture from the British royal family, everyone must not miss it!"
Brad raised his hand to make a gesture, and quickly reported the new price.
At the same time, his eyes were also rapidly scanning the room in order to spot new bidders.
"$3.8 million, Brad"
The voice came from the entrance of the auction hall. It was still a white buyer, about forty or fifty years old!
This guy raised the price significantly as soon as he made a move, and directly raised 600,000 US dollars on the basis of the quotation, which can be called a big deal, obviously strong!
After quoting the price, this one didn't stop, but joked with the one who made the previous quotation.
"Keynes, you should rest! Since this set of royal furniture appeared in New York, it is a treasure belonging to the United States. It is impossible for you, a fat man, to get it and take it to Canada!"
The two obviously knew each other, and their relationship was okay, so they could make some harmless jokes!
It is not surprising that they know each other. For many antique art collectors in the United States and Canada, New York is their main battlefield! We often meet at auctions in New York.
We have met many times, so we will naturally get to know each other! Some people can even exchange needs and become business partners or good friends!
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter at the scene, slightly defusing the tense atmosphere.
Amidst the laughter, there were also many echoing voices.
"Man, you're right. Since this kind of top-notch antique furniture appeared in the United States, it should stay here, and these Canadian guys must not let it be bought!"
"Don't worry! Guys, I will keep this royal furniture in the United States, in New York, and use it to decorate my villa in Long Island!"
Keynes, who was sitting in the front row, stood up, turned his head and cursed at the entrance of the auction hall with a smile:
"Monroe, you are a rude bastard! Do you know how to appreciate Renaissance art? You bastard is only worthy of riding a horse and herding cattle. Don't spoil these works of art!"
"Hahaha"
There was another burst of laughter in the auction hall.
Immediately afterwards, Brad's passionate voice came again, drowning the laughter with the help of speakers.
"No. 209, Mr. Monroe from Montana asked for $3.8 million, now it's $4.1 million, $4.1 million, who will take this price?"
Before the words were finished, a Sotheby's staff member raised his bidding number.
It was a telephone auction, and another buyer began to participate in the competition.
This shot is also very generous,
To come up is to raise prices sharply, trying to show the determination to win by this means, to deter or repel other competitors.
"Five million dollars!"
The voices of Sotheby's staff resounded throughout the audience, and everyone heard it very clearly.
"Whoa! Where is this buyer from! Crazy!"
There was a burst of exclamation at the scene, and this kind of generosity shocked many people!
In particular, many buyers from China were stunned.
Classic Chinese antique furniture is not cheap. There are tens of millions of dollars of furniture, but very few tens of millions of dollars. It can be said that it is rare!
The reason is mainly because many of the Chinese-style furniture handed down are not complete sets, most of which are one or two pieces, and more than four pieces are very rare.
In addition, due to many turmoil in history, the identity, origin, and inheritance information of most Chinese-style antique furniture have no evidence to test, which has virtually lowered the value of these furniture.
The present set of British royal furniture does not have these problems. Not only are they well preserved, but they are presented in a complete set, without missing a single piece! Very commendable!
More importantly, this set of furniture has an orderly inheritance and is well documented.
This will undoubtedly greatly increase its value, making this set of furniture very popular and becoming the target of many European and American collectors, and they are willing to donate generously for it!
With the current hot competitive atmosphere, it is certain that this set of antique furniture will fetch more than 10 million US dollars! It is even possible to fetch even more jaw-dropping sky-high prices!
Faced with such a set of antique furniture that seems to cost tens of millions of dollars, everyone was naturally shocked.
At the same time, some buyers who knew about this set of antique furniture were even more envious when they saw the smiling Ye Tian in the crowd, wishing they could replace it!
Even collectors like Ma Ye were shocked by the fiery bidding scene in the auction hall, and said to Ye Tian in disbelief:
"You kid is awesome! You have found such a complete set of antique furniture. It seems that you are going to launch a satellite today, and you may be able to set this year's antique furniture auction record!"
"I would like to borrow your good words! Master Ma, it would be great if I could win this year's antique furniture auction record, but I would like to win the all-time antique furniture auction record. I don't know if there is a play or not?"
Ye Tian said with a smile, showing his ambition by the way.
"Hahaha, the auction record for antique furniture in history! You really dare to think about it! Don't be afraid that the wind will flash your tongue! To tell you the truth, there is no play at all!
Your set of British royal furniture will not exceed 25 million U.S. dollars, which is far from the record of 36 million U.S. dollars! Don't think about beautiful things! "
Ma Ye said in a low voice angrily, shattering Ye Tian's unrealistic fantasy.
"The 'Benderminton' cabinet is just a cabinet, and it can fetch a sky-high price of 36 million US dollars. This is a complete set of 32 pieces of royal furniture! Isn't it better than one?"
Ye Tian whispered disdainfully, with a bit of resentment in his tone.
"The auction record for the 'Bender Minton' cabinet was set in 2004, if it were put up for auction now, it would be possible for that cabinet to sell for $300 million!
If your boy can put the President of the United States or the Queen of England's Resolute table at auction that day, it will definitely set a new record! Now, you kid can enjoy the harvest in front of you! "
Master Ma made a joke, then turned to look at the auction table.
"You're right! Let's just enjoy what we've got! Look at how much money these crazy foreign devils will end up giving buddies!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, his face was full of color!
Auction prices for royal furniture continue to soar upwards, reaching $12 million, fully double the reserve price, and showing no signs of stopping!
For this price, Ye Tian is already very satisfied.
But who thinks money is too hot? Naturally, the more the better.
"No. 47 should be priced at $13 million, this is a beautiful lady, now it's $13.5 million, 13.5 million, which lady or sir?
OK! Placard No. 175 is from online bidding. The current latest price is 14 million US dollars, 14 million US dollars, who will take this price? ")!!
