Upper estimate price exceeded by 88 %.
This artwork by Elizabeth Keith achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2007. In the Japanese Ceramics & Works of Art auction, the work Unknown sold for GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,575.29) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Elizabeth Keith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hong Kong in July 2020 with an auction result of USD 18,750.00 (€ 15,924.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 88 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Elizabeth Keith erzielte im November 2007 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Japanese Ceramics & Works of Art wurde die Arbeit Unknown für GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.575,29) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Elizabeth Keith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hong Kong im Juli 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 18.750,00 (€ 15.924,92).
