We scour the world to bring you information on great R Lalique items coming up for auction, and there can be no better example of the info flowing in here at World Headquarters than our listing of an R Lalique Senart Vase coming up for auction in Istanbul Turkey on December 20th at the Alif Art Auction House! Yes, Istanbul, you read it right! Figuring that many of our readers may not have done business in Turkey before, we’ve contacted the auction house directly to obtain information for you on how to make arrangements to investigate and bid on the vase. Here is the edited combined contents of two email replies we received from the auction house:
The vase is in good condition. H: 21cm
İf you want to participate, please give me a fax number so İ could send you a written bid form for you to complete with a credit card number as references (nothing will be debit from it).
The payment could be done by credit card within 1 week or by wire transfer 3 to 5 days after the auction date.
Concerning the shipping cost, it will depend the way we will send the item. Normally we use DHL, easiest way. As we are used to send marchandise overseas, be sure there will be no problem.
Thanks you very much for your interest and help. For the phone bids, İ just need a fax number so İ can send a written bid form to complete, sign and add a credit card number as references. During the auction, İ will call. İn the case of no fax number, İ will ask all the necessary informations (full name, address, passport number, phones, credit card numbers) but İ would rather have the bid form SİGNED by the bidder.
Concerning the vase, there is no problems (no damages, holes…) The glass is black (inside and outside), with some grey parts.
Do not hesitate to contact me for further information,
Sincerely yours,
Celine CHALABİ
