It is planned that the price of antiques will be from 50,000 to 70,000. Well, considering that the case is finished in silver and the handles are made of ivory, the price is quite adequate.

The auction itself was founded in 1763 and focuses primarily on fine arts and antiques. The new auction building will be located on Madison Avenue.
