This artwork by Charlotte Perriand achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in June 2007. In the Jean Prouvé's Prototype Maison Tropicale and Works by Jean Prouvé,Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret from the Collection of Eric Touchaleaume auction, the work An Exotic Wood, Lacquered Aluminum And Steel Bathroom Cabinet, 1952 sold for USD 28,800.00 (€ 21,301.78) - well above the upper estimate of USD 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charlotte Perriand achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Important “Bibliotheque Murale,” in May 2010 with an auction result of USD 314,500.00 (€ 254,264.69).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charlotte Perriand erzielte im Juni 2007 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Jean Prouvé's Prototype Maison Tropicale and Works by Jean Prouvé,Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret from the Collection of Eric Touchaleaume wurde die Arbeit An Exotic Wood, Lacquered Aluminum And Steel Bathroom Cabinet, 1952 für USD 28.800,00 (€ 21.301,78) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charlotte Perriand erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Important “Bibliotheque Murale,” im Mai 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 314.500,00 (€ 254.264,69).
