Rob Michiels Auctioneers Chinese – Japanese Art In May | Auction NEWS

May 14, 2020 By plcombs Leave a Comment

Brugge, Belgium: On May 26th and 27th Rob Michiels Auctioneers will conduct a two day 700 lot auction of Chinese and Japanese art along with a fine selection of delft and middle eastern ceramics.

This week we created a video for the sale as we have in the past to highlight some of the lots we particularly liked, it was tough to do as we liked a lot of the content in this sale.

His company also tends to take a sensible route when it comes to estimates. Modest estimates translate into modest reserves, which is the case here.

This sale like Rob's auctions in the past is well photographed, well described with dates and periods, dimensions and contact information is easily accessible.
