Purchased lots will become available only after full payment has been made. The sale will be conducted in Euros. In addition to the hammer price, the buyer agrees to pay a buyer’s premium along with any applicable value added tax.

From 1 to 150 000 € the buyer’s premium is 25% + VAT amounting to 30% (all taxes included) and 23% of any amount in excess of 150 001€ over + VAT amounting to 27.6% (all taxes included). Books (25% + VAT amounting to 26,375%).

In addition to the hammer price and buyer’s premium, live auction buyers will pay a 1,80% TTC (fees 1,5% HT + 0,30% VAT) commission to the Drouot Digital platform.

NB :

+ Auction by order of the court further to a prescription of the court, buyers fees 14,40% VTA included.

° Lots on which the auction house or its partners have a financial interest

* Lots which have been temporarily imported and are subject to a buyer’s fee of 5.5% (20% for jewelry, motorcars, wines and spirits and multiples – F1 helmet) in addition to the hammer price and sale fees.

~ This lot contains animal materials. Import restrictions are to be expected and must be considered.

The legislator imposes strict rules for the commercial use of inert animal species. The international regulations of March 3, 1973 (CITES) requires for different annexes a correlation between the specimen and the documentation proving the origins to be lawful. This regulation transcribed in European Community law (Annexes A/B/C) in Rule 338/97 of 9/12/1996 permits commercial use of regulated specimens (CITES) upon presentation of documentation proving lawful origin; these documents for this variation are as follows :

• For Annex A : C/C provided outlining the specimen’s history (for specimens of recent date)

• For Annex B : Bird specimens are either banded or equipped with transponders, and are accompanied by documents of licit origin. The auction’s sale record must be conserved as it contains the complete history of every specimen.

All cases concerning specimens of recent date that are protected under the French Env.ironmental Code and which were born and raised in captivity are permitted by the derogation clause AM of 14/07/2006. As such, they can be used commercially provided traceability between the specimen and the documentation proving licit origins. Other specimen cases dating prior to clause AM of 21/07/2015 can, due to this fact, be used commercially. Specimens dating before 1947 included in this auction sale benefit from clause 2M of the derogatory Rule 228/97 of 9/12/1996, permitting their use for trade. However, exporting them outside of the EU them requires a pre-CITES Convention agreement.

For huntable species of the European continent and elsewhere, commercial use is allowed under certain conditions. Domesticated species (D) included in this auction sale are free for trade. Old specimens from before the Convention (i.e. before 1975) comply with the conditions of the AM of 23/12/2011 and, as such, are free for trade.

The other specimens in this auction sale are not subject to NR regulations and are free for commercial use and trade. The auction record will substantiate their licit origin.

To leave the EU, with regards to the Annexes I/A, II/B et III/C, a CITES re-export document at the expense of the acquirer will be necessary.

GUARANTEES

However in this period of pandemie the photos are worth exhibition, and no claims will be admitted once the award is pronounced. The reproductions in the catalog of works are as faithful as possible, a difference in color or tones is nevertheless possible. The dimensions are only given as an indication.

The text in French is the official text which will be retained in case of dispute. The descriptions in other languages and the indications of dimensions in inches are given only as an indication and cannot be at the origin of a complaint.

The state of conservation of the works is not specified in the catalog, the buyers are therefore obliged to ask for additional photos, videos and/or condition reports. No claim will be accepted concerning possible restorations or accidents once the auction has been pronounced.

The condition reports requested from SAS Claude Aguttes and the expert before the sale are given for information only. They do not engage their responsibilities and cannot be the cause of a legal claim. Under no circumstances do they replace the personal examination of the work by the buyer or his representative.

BIDS

The highest and final bidder will be the purchaser.

Should the auctioneer recognize two simultaneous bids on one lot, the lot will be put up for sale again and all those present in the saleroom may participate in this second opportunity to bid.

Important : Bidding is typically conducted in the auction house. However, we may graciously accept telephone bids from potential buyers who have made the request.
