Catalogue entry

A tall narrow vase in an iron slip over a bone-coloured body, with an unusually crisp change of angle at the shoulder where the form was re-cut on the wheel.

Watertight. The interior is glazed to within an inch of the rim.

Provenance

  • Direct from the maker’s studio

What you actually pay

Bids are on the hammer price. A buyer’s premium of 18% is added to the hammer, and shipping is quoted separately — $44 for this lot, packed and sent domestically. At the current next minimum of $345 that comes to $407.10 before shipping, or $451.10 delivered.

The published increment table

The step is set by the table, not by us on the day.

The band your bid falls into decides the smallest legal step above it. At the current $320 that step is $25, so the next acceptable bid is $345. Leave a maximum and we bid for you in these steps, stopping as soon as you are in front — you will often pay less than your maximum.

Soft close. A bid inside the final 3 minutes pushes the closing time out by 3 minutes from that bid, and there is no cap on extensions. A lot closes when 3 full minutes pass with nobody bidding. You never have to be here at the published minute.
