This artwork by Gio Ponti achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2020. In the Thinking Italian Art and Design Evening Sale auction, the work Large chandelier sold for GBP 106,250.00 (€ 117,981.56) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 40,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Gio Ponti; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A Rare and Important Low Table sold at auction in October 2017 with the realized price of GBP 143,750.00 (€ 163,903.14).
