  & Works of Art

On December 13th and 14th, the Furniture & Works of Art department will auction more than 400 lots from private European collections with prestigious provenances, including an exceptional Sèvres porcelain garniture that once belonged to King Louis XV.

On 20th October 2023, in parallel with Paris+ par Art Basel, Artcurial auctioned the Eclectic Eye collection coming from a London apartment, and assembled in over 20 years by discerning collectors. This was a rare, cutting-edge collection that brought together objects and periods: from the great modern artists Berthe Morisot and Pierre Bonnard, to contemporaries Peter Doig and Olafur Eliasson, as well as rare 18th-century furniture and exceptional Chinese and Sèvres porcelain. This collection of nearly 160 lots represented a unique journey into the free and intuitive spirit of collectors.

Among the works presented in the sale An Apartment overlooking the Seine, the collection of a Parisian amateur on 25th November 2022, an exceptional pair of vases from the Qing dynasty stood out. Extremely rare, these two works bear the sigillary mark of the Qianlong emperor and belonged to Baron James de Rothschild.

On 25th November, Artcurial auctioned the private collection of a Parisian amateur. Among the highlights of the sale, a magnificent and rare pair of flask-form vases from the Qing dynasty, Qianlong mark and period (1736-1795), and previously owned by Baron James de Rothschild at the Château de Ferrières, was presented. Remarkable Chinese porcelains and enamels, elegant 18th century pieces of furniture and works of art and an exceptional set of drawings by Théophile Steinlen completed this unique collection.

On 7th and 8th September 2022, Artcurial held the sale of a selection of furniture and objects from the Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, an icon of French art de vivre for almost a century.
