The Life of Bo Legendre

Bo

The Life of

Legendre Among her many pursuits and accomplishments, Bokara "Bo" Legendre was an artist, performer, philanthropist, and writer. To those who knew her best, Bo will be remembered for her sharp wit, sparkling personality, and most of all, her fierce self-determination.

Throughout her life, Bo was able to bring warmth into the lives of all those who were touched by her compassion and inspired by her fearlessness.

While many in their youth struggle to fit in, Bo had no such hindrances—she refused to be ignored and had little concern for adhering to the status quo. Even at age nine, little Bo was able to capture the attention of any audience, donning her favorite costume of black velvet pants, a white silk blouse and a scarlet cummerbund—a madly glamorous getup that was hardly suitable for a child of that age. Yet Bo pulled it off with panache and nary a care for parental disapproval.

Being an heiress, Bo was faced with the daunting task of following in her parents’ footsteps. Her father, Sidney Legendre, was a tall and handsome man hailing from a prominent New Orleans family with deep roots in French Creole culture and a firm dedication to military service. Bo’s mother, Gertrude “Gertie” Sanford Legendre, was the daughter of carpet magnate John Sanford. Gertie was an exuberant woman who never quite fit the mold of the obedient and delicate debutante. In her lifetime, Gertie was an

experienced big-game hunter, an escaped P.O.W. during World War II, and the life of the party in human form, known popularly as “Charleston’s Grandest Dame.” She was a socialite of aristocratic proportions.

Sidney and Gertie were two youngsters of social influence that shared an equal passion for travel and hunting. While on a safari in Ethiopia, the two met and fell in love. Soon after Gertie and Sidney married in 1929, they made the impulse decision to purchase the 6,000+ acres of South Carolina’s oldest surviving plantation, Medway Plantation. With help from Gertie’s father, the newlyweds bought the plantation for $100,000.

They immediately took to restoring the plantation home, a structure that has stood since 1682. The once derelict property was transformed into an environmentalist’s paradise. Rice fields once dug by slaves were turned into ponds for rare, migratory birds. Medway was once poetically described as a place where “restless Time himself has come to rest.”

The plantation also served as the Legendre’s personal hunting grounds. Gertie was an outstanding hunter and a woman who truly had no capacity for fear—she collected many trophies of the beasts that fell victim to her rifle. From her expeditions to Africa,

Indochina, Persia and beyond, many of her "winnings" were donated to New York City's American Museum of Natural of History and are still on display to this day. However, many others would find a new home in a Medway lodge, populating the "Trophy Room." Gertie was famous for her schedule that ran from spring until fall and consisted almost entirely of shooting, picnics, more shooting, and cocktails at sunset. Even after her husband passed away unexpectedly, when Bo was only 8 years old, Gertie went on countless hunting expeditions around the globe.

While Bo never shared her mother’s excitement for hunting, she did inherit her mother’s free spirit and love of adventure. In fact, Bo was named after Bukhara, a beautiful city in Uzbekistan, and a testament to the love that mother and daughter shared for faraway places. Bo’s appreciation for the diverse cultures of the world is reflected in her spectacular collection of jewelry and objets de vertu, from the exemplary Cartier jewels of the Art Deco movement, which perfectly characterize the opulence of high society to which she had belonged, to the rare collection of Suzanne Belperron’s creations that bespeak exotic cultures and sensual, organic forms.

Bo had the spirit of an artist and, above all, was passionate about being a writer and performer. She experimented with stage performance and later appeared as Sarah Bernhardt at CafĂŠ La MaMa in New York. She did work in television and broadcasting, hosting a Palm Beach late-night weekly television show where she interviewed famous television and film personalities. She was a freelance reporter for The Charleston News and Courier, covering topics of worldly and social significance. Later, she moved on to writing stories for The Washington Post and ultimately became a reporter for The New York Times Family & Style section.

Later, she turned countless journal entries that spanned decades into monologues.

Her only book, Not What I Expected, released in July of 2017, gives an intimate account of her life.

Although Bo was incredibly grateful for her career accomplishments, her adventurous spirit drove her to move past them and dig deeper, in search for truth and life’s higher meanings. With a thirst for knowledge and a desire to explore her curiosities, she took an interest in shamanism, native traditions, and Eastern spiritual disciplines. She created

a television show called “Lunch with Bokara” on Link TV, in which she investigated the wisdom of many cultures by interviewing spiritual masters, scientists, and philosophers.

She was especially drawn to Tibetan Buddhism, and in 1978 she went to the Himalayan country of Sikkim and was ordained as a Buddhist practitioner, beginning a quest of achieving spiritual discipline, and eventually becoming an accomplished meditator.

What began as a story of great privilege—a life of comfort and ease in the natural escape of historic Medway, extravagant parties with the upper echelon of society, and voyaging across the globe to exotic places—transformed into a beautifully crafted account of a woman with the purest hope of finding a true home in this immense world, and her lifelong journey of discovering it.

Fortuna is honored to present the personal jewelry collection of the late Bo Legendre, and the spirit of exploration, strength, beauty, and culture that it represents.

D E S I G N ER S P OT LI G H T

Jean

Schlumberger Designers are different than most people; they observe the world through their own unique lens, constantly searching for that which drives them to create. Jean Schlumberger was no exception.

He looked at the world as an artist, interpreting it in his own way. When speaking of his creative process he stated, “I try to make everything look as if it were growing, uneven, organic. I want to capture the irregularity of the universe. I observe nature and find verve.”

This suite, an early production of Schlumberger’s, may provide a glimpse at the origin of his singular artistry before the collaboration with Tiffany & Co. that would propel his career to new heights.

While the luxury retailer provided Schlumberger the resources required to create some of his most ambitious and idiosyncratically whimsical pieces, as well as the visibility to cement his name as one of the most talented jewelry designers of the 20th century, his early works of which this magnificent suite is an example of, cannot be ignored as the genesis of his creative force.

To create jewelry that embodied the growth and energy he sought, Schlumberger did not need enormous gemstones. In this suite, the diamonds and emeralds are mostly of relatively modest size for the designer. Particularly in his early work, it was the design of the jewel in its entirety that was important. Here, the delicate twisted wirework provides dynamism to the composition while complementing the sparkling gemstones. In the earclips, to achieve the impression of dimension he championed, Schlumberger created convex rows of diamonds that undulate in an almost snake-like manner, creating a curved mounting that seems to rise and fall. The result is a set of jewelry that is not entirely atypical to the artist, but still depicts a curious, and even unusual manifestation of his style.

Schlumberger tells of the fluidity of thought that comes to him during his creative practice: “Truth to tell, I never have any definite ideas when I begin to design an object. Ideas come to me at pencil point, following a process that is as inexplicable as it is unconscious.”

Suzanne

Belperron With her unapologetically bold style and sensually carved designs, Suzanne Belperron would distinguish herself among the first female master jewelers of the early 20th century as a designer whose aesthetic was so unique, it would serve as her signature.

Belperron's creative genius quickly drew the attention of esteemed clientele including: the Duchess of Windsor, Josephine Baker, Christian Dior, and countless more high-profile figures; yet, she never sought public recognition. When asked why she never signed her pieces, as was customary of all haute joaillerie maisons, Belperron famously said, “my style is my signature.”

Writing in the San Francisco Sunday Chronicle in 1961, journalist Cécile Sandoz, expressed that the creations of Belperron possessed an instantly recognizable “abstract fluidity of form, a Pharaonic or Aztec sheen that gives a centuries-old patina and a highly personal technique of setting precious gems in larger semiprecious stones.”

From humble beginnings, Suzanne Vuillerme Belperron grew up in a small town in eastern France. In 1916, she enrolled at the Écoles Municipales de Musique et des Beaux-Arts, located in Besançon, a city that would be known as the birthplace of France’s watch industry. It was here that she began her formal study of jewelry design. Knowing that versatility would give her the competitive advantage she sought, Belperron immersed herself and excelled in a variety of studies. Her early productions revealed an intuition of style and form, as well as a wealth of talent.

She began her career in Paris in 1919 as a draftswoman for one of the leading firms at the time, Maison Boivin. Her talent was recognized quickly, and within four years she was the lead designer. While she created countless designs in the popular Art Deco style, she quickly grew tired of the rigid aesthetic and began experimenting in a more organic

There’s no one else like her.

style, assimilating natural forms and motifs. In 1932, she left Boivin to join Bernard Herz, a prominent dealer in gemstones and pearl. Herz recognized her virtuosity and skill, and Belperron was given full artistic freedom to design in his name.

This partnership put forth a daring new look for jewelry that was stunningly modern. Finding inspiration in a wide range of cultures—African, Cambodian, Celtic, Egyptian and Indian—her designs incorporated an unconventional use of materials and techniques including carved gemstones displaying bold and sensual silhouettes, now an unmistakable mark of her production.

Close friend and fellow jewelry designer, Christopher Walling, holds fond memories of the time he spent with Belperron. As a woman of extreme aesthetic sensitivity, everything from her home décor to her hair color was impeccably thought out. Her house was filled with an elegant mélange, from contemporary French furniture to pre-Columbian art and Tang Dynasty horses. When commenting on her personal style, Walling recalls that the same care was taken, “It was always white with pearls, or white with diamonds. Green with emeralds; blue with sapphires. And it may not sound like it would work, but it did. And it was extraordinary […] It wasn’t frivolous; it was a continuation of her art.”

While Belperron’s designs caught the eye of countless European nobility and jewelry connoisseurs alike, their relative scarcity due to their unique nature and limited production has led many of her works to remain hidden from the public. It is estimated that Belperron only made between 3,000 and 5,000 jewels in her lifetime. On the rare occasions when her jewels surface publicly, collectors around the world clamor with excitement.

As the highlight of Bo Legendre's magnificent private jewelry collection, Fortuna is honored to present the following treasures designed by the hand of Suzanne Belperron.

These terms govern your participation in the auction as a bidder and/or buyer and/ or representative as well as your access to and use of any digital, print, and intellectual properties and materials owned

by Fortuna. If you are using any digital platform including but not limited to websites, mobile applications, or online bidding platforms (“digital platform” or “digital platforms”), whether owned by Fortuna or a third party, additional terms and conditions may apply and shall be posted by or made available to you by the platform owner. We retain the right, in our sole discretion, to change these Terms and Conditions from time to time, at any time, for any reason, and without notice to you. Any such changes shall be sent to you via posted mail, email, and/or posted online or otherwise made available to you by the means of our choosing. By participating in the auction and/or accessing, using, bidding, and/or buying, on any digital platforms at our auction, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, as well as any additional terms and conditions required by the digital platform you are using. Upon any update or change in any of these Terms and Conditions, your continued use, access, and/or participation will be considered acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions you may not participate in the auction and may not access or use any digital platform to register for, participate in or access any of our auctions.

These Terms and Conditions, including any amendments made by Fortuna via published or posted notices and/or verbal announcements during the sale, along with the Master Consignment Agreement, constitute the entire terms and conditions upon which the Property listed in the catalog shall be offered for sale and/or sold by Fortuna Auction LLC and any consignor of such property for whom we serve as agent.

These Terms and Conditions shall bind the successors and assigns of all bidders and/or buyers and inure to the benefit of our successors and assigns. No waiver, amendment or modification of the terms herein, other than published or posted notices and/or oral announcements during the sale, shall bind us or our successors or assigns, unless explicitly stated in writing and signed by a Fortuna Authority.

1. TERMINOLOGY The following terminology, which is used throughout these Terms and Conditions, shall be defined as follow: Hammer Price: The Hammer Price is defined as the final and winning bid, secured by the landing of the gavel (hammer) during the live sale.

Total Purchase Price: The sum of the Hammer Price, the buyer’s premium (to be retained by us for our account and payable by the winning bidder/buyer), any associated fees and expenses due to us, and any applicable taxes.

Fortuna Authority: At the time of last revision of these Terms and Conditions, Fortuna Authority shall solely and exclusively refer to either: John Saxon, Co-CEO or Seth Holehouse, Co-CEO. 2. PROPERTY CONDITION, AUTHENTICITY, REPRESENTATION, AND WARRANTY 2.1 Property is Sold “As Is” All Property is sold “As Is”, without any warranty or rep| 104 |

V1.2

resentation, expressed or implied, by us. The absence of a Property condition report does not imply any particular condition. All statements contained in this catalog, on our website, in any digital platform, in any materials, in any condition report, in any invoice, or elsewhere as it relates to this sale, as to source, authorship, origin, condition, provenance, period, culture, quality, importance, rarity, and/or historical significance are statements of opinion.

3. BUYER’S PREMIUM

2.2 Property is Available for Inspection and Condition Reports are Available Upon Request It is your responsibility to inspect and/or request additional photographs, videos, and/or condition reports for any Property you intend on bidding for, prior to the day of the sale. Fortuna will not be held responsible or liable for providing such information to you in time for the sale, if you do not request the information at least 48 hours prior to the sale.

4. AUCTION PROCESSES, PROCEDURES, AND PLATFORMS

2.3 Certificates of Authenticity Fortuna will, from time to time, for various lots offered, obtain certificates of authenticity from the designer and/ or manufacturer, when possible and practical, in our sole discretion and under our sole judgement. However, not all designers and manufacturers issue certificates upon request.

In the event that you are a winning bidder and you attempt to obtain such a certificate from a designer and/or manufacturer and are unable to, you understand and agree that this will not constitute grounds to rescind the sale. Furthermore, you assume all such risks in the purchase of the lot(s) that you bid for and win and will not hold Fortuna liable for any costs, expenses, losses, liabilities, and/or damages as a result of such events.

2.4 Gemological Certificates and Reports Fortuna does not guarantee and accepts no responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in any gemological reports and/or certificates. Fortuna uses such reports and/ or certificates as a point of reference. All liability with regards to accuracy shall be assumed by the gemological laboratory from which the certificate and/or report originates. Please note that different laboratories may differ in their assessments (including but not limited to: origin, type and extent of treatment) and thus such certificates and/or reports from different laboratories may contain different results. If, following a sale, a buyer obtains a gemological laboratory certificate or report from a laboratory other than the one used by Fortuna, Fortuna will not be held liable for any differences in certificates or reports. From time to time, Fortuna will guarantee certain characteristics for a gemstone offered for sale and oftentimes, the sale is contingent upon receipt of a certificate confirming such characteristics. When such a situation occurs, Fortuna will explicitly and clearly state the terms of the guarantee.

2.5 Timepieces Fortuna does not guarantee the working condition of any timepieces. All timepieces are sold without warranty. Fortuna attempts to identify significant damage and make note of such damage in catalog descriptions, when and where possible. However, Fortuna makes no guarantee as to the full and complete condition report of any timepiece. Furthermore, catalog descriptions and condition reports do not necessarily include all faults, imperfections, or restorations performed on the timepiece.

2.6 Estimated Gemstone Weights Certain gemstone weights are estimated using techniques that yield approximate measurements. The values produced by these techniques and reported in the catalog descriptions are to be used as approximations, and should not be relied upon as exact measurements.

The following premiums will be applied to the buyer’s account, and due to Fortuna, on top of the Hammer Price: 25% on the first $300,000 20% from $300,001 to $3,000,000 12.5% on the excess over $3,000,000

4.1 Auctioneer’s Rights and Permissions The auctioneer may sell, pass, withdraw, or advance a lot in any manner he or she decides and may split any bid increment for any lot at any time, all at his or her sole discretion.

The auctioneer may also, in his or her sole discretion, for any reason he or she deems necessary, especially in the event that the auctioneer doubts the validity of a bid or a bidder, reject any bids, from any bidder, for any Property, at any sale and at any time. In event of a bidding dispute, the auctioneer has the sole, exclusive, and final decision in the selection of the winning bidder, the cancelation of the sale, the reentering of a previously withdrawn lot, the re-opening and re-offering of a previously passed lot, and/or the re-selling or re-passing of the disputed lot. Any post-auction disputes that arise shall be resolved by review of our sales records, which shall act as a master record, and shall be conclusive in all respects.

4.2 Property Withdraw, Lot Consolidation/Division, and Lot Re-Sequencing We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, for any reason we deem necessary, to withdraw any property from any sale at any time prior to the sale of such property, divide property of a lot up into multiple lots to be offered for sale, or consolidate multiple lots into fewer lots to be offered for sale, or rearrange lot sequencing. You agree to hold Fortuna harmless for any such actions. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalog and no lots shall be divided or combined for sale.

4.3 Lots With Reserves We may offer lots subject to a “Reserve,” which is a confidential minimum price below which a lot will not be sold. If, during the course of bidding, a lot does not meet its Reserve, the auctioneer shall pass the lot. The auctioneer may bid on behalf of the consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding in response to other bidders, until the reserve is reached, at which point the auctioneer will cease bidding on the consignor’s behalf. If Fortuna has an interest in a lot, the auctioneer will behave in the same manner, with respect to bidding on the behalf of the consignor to meet a reserve price, that he or she would otherwise behave for any third party consignor.

4.4 Consignor Integrity Under no circumstances is any consignor or representatives of any consignor allowed to bid on their own items. If such an event takes place, the consignor will be subject to all applicable penalties and Fortuna will be permitted full authority to resolve the matter in using any available means and manner contractually and legally permitted, as outlined in the Master Consignment Agreement.

4.5 Bidding By Representative If you wish to send a representative to bid on your behalf, you must first seek and gain the express written approval of Fortuna. You and your Representative shall accept and agree to be bound by the Terms and Conditions herein. Furthermore, the Bidder and/or Buyer agree to be held liable for the actions of your Representative, pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. In such an event, we will need the buyer’s and/or bidder’s signature on a letter of authorization, to be provided

Fortuna Buyer Terms and Conditions

by Fortuna upon request.

4.6 Absentee Bidding, Phone Bidding, and Online Bidding Not Guaranteed We may permit and execute absentee bidding including written bids, telephone bidding, and internet bidding as a convenience to you, if you are unable or would prefer not to attend the auction in-person. We are not responsible for any errors related to this type of bidding in any way. You further agree to hold us harmless should we fail to execute any such bids or should the digital platform, software, tool, and/or technology that you used to bid fail you at any point, for any reason.

4.7 Online Platforms and Bidding Fortuna may allow clients to bid online via our own website, mobile application, or other third-party online platforms. By using any of these digital platforms to participate in a sale, you acknowledge that you are bound by these Terms and Conditions, as well as any additional terms and conditions stipulated by the digital platforms. At any time, Fortuna may terminate, suspend, change, discontinue, or add to any aspect of the digital platforms and/or services, in our sole discretion, without liability. We also may restrict, suspend, or terminate use of access for anyone at any time. When using any third-party digital platforms to participate in a sale. You acknowledge that Fortuna has no responsibility for any of the content, interaction, or risks associated with a third-party digital platform. Under no circumstances is Fortuna liable, directly or indirectly, for any loss or damage that you may incur on a third-party digital platform.

4.8 Title to the Property Upon the landing of the auctioneer’s hammer, title passes to the winning bidder, subject to these Terms and Conditions and the winning bidder’s ability to fulfill his or her obligations as detailed herein. On the landing of the auctioneer’s hammer, the winning bidder shall have purchased the offered lot pursuant to, and subject to compliance with, these Terms and Conditions. At such a time the winning bidder: (a) assumes full risk and responsibility therefor, (b) if requested will sign a confirmation of purchase, and (c) will pay the purchase price in full. No lot may be transferred. Any person placing a bid as agent on behalf of another (whether or not such person has disclosed that fact or the identity of the principal) may be jointly and severally liable with the principal under any contract resulting from the acceptance of a bid.

5. ACCOUNT SETTLEMENT & RECEIPT OF PROPERTY 5.1 Balance Due and Due Date You will be required to pay the total balance of your account, which is equivalent to the Total Purchase Price. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing and signed by a Fortuna Authority, payment is due within seven (7) calendar days of the completion of the auction. Under certain circumstances Fortuna may offer extended payment plans/terms for certain buyers. We shall, in our sole discretion, make such decisions without disclosing any information regarding such decisions to any other party. If the buyer makes a partial payment, we shall, in our sole judgement, apply the partial payment to any particular line items or lots on the buyers account balance that we see fit in whichever manner we see fit. Payment will not be deemed made in full until we have collected good funds for all amounts due and all funds have cleared our bank account.

5.2 New York State Sales Tax New York sales tax shall be applied to a buyers’ accounts, as a percentage applied against the taxable portion, if any, of the Total Purchase Price, and collected by Fortuna at the time of settlement, regardless of the state or country in which the buyer/bidder/representative resides or does business.

Property delivered to a destination outside of New York by a shipper who is considered a “common carrier” by the New York Department of Taxation and Finance (e.g., DHL, FedEx, UPS, and/or USPS) will not be subject to New York sales tax.

Buyers/bidders/representatives who make any other such

arrangements for pickup or delivery in the state of New York, will be subject to New York State Sales Tax, pursuant to the details herein and all applicable laws. One final exception: If a Buyer/Bidder/Representative possesses and presents to Fortuna a resale ID, taxes are not applicable and will not be applied or collected.

5.3 Accepted Forms of Payment and Associated Limitations and Service Charges You may settle your account using the following accepted means of payment: cash, check, money order, cashier’s check, book transfer, wire transfer, direct deposit, debit card, charge card, or credit card (the latter three collectively referred to herein as “card” or “cards”). The following cards will be accepted: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and/or American Express. A 2% service charge will be applied to the Total Purchase Price for all card payments. Card payments shall not be accepted from first time buyers, unless otherwise approved in writing by Fortuna and authorized by a Fortuna Authority. Card payments are limited to a maximum $10,000 per buyer/bidder/representative per auction. We reserve the right, in our sole discretions, for any reason we deem necessary, to permit or deny any form of payment for any buyer/ bidder/representative and the right to increase or decrease any maximums, minimums or thresholds stated herein.

5.4 Property Pickup or Delivery Prior to account settlement, you must inform Fortuna in writing (email is preferable) of your desired method of receipt of your new property—either pickup or delivery. If requesting delivery, Fortuna will arrange a fully-insured shipment for you, with a reputable “common carrier” (e.g., DHL, FedEx, UPS, and/or USPS), however, you will be responsible for any and all insured shipping costs and/or costs affiliated with receiving the property. If picking up, or requesting delivery to a New York mailing address, you understand that you will be subject to any applicable sales taxes, as detailed herein. If you do not pick up or accept delivery of your purchased property within 10 business days of account settlement, or if we have not come to some other written agreement with regards to your receipt of the property, we may consider that property abandoned and rescind the sale on behalf of property owner. If not so, Fortuna will charge a fair and reasonable daily storage fee to cover, at a minimum, the insurance and management of your property. We reserve the right to hold the merchandise until cleared or certified funds are received and your account is fully settled. You will be charged $50 for each check returned for insufficient funds, and will be held liable for any fees or charges incurred by Fortuna for such an event. Unless exempt by law, all purchases (including buyer’s premium) are subject to New York State Sales Tax. 6. BUYER’S DEFAULT AND RESCISSION OF SALE 6.1 Buyer’s Default If you fail to fully pay for your auction purchases, including all applicable expenses, fees, and taxes, by the due date (seven calendar days after the date of sale) or if any of the terms and conditions herein are not complied with by you and/or your Representative or if we suspect, for any reason, that you or your Representative are fraudulent or are incapable of fulfilling your obligations as a buyer, pursuant to these Terms and Conditions, you will be in default, and Fortuna will be fully entitled to and may elect to: 6.1.1 Cancel the Sale We may cancel the sale and either offer the lot at a future auction, sell the lot privately, or return the lot to the consignor. Regardless of the course of action we elect to take, if the lot is re-sold, you shall be held fully responsible for the difference between the original total balance due and the proceeds from the resale. If we return the lot to the consignor, you shall be held fully responsible for any loss of commission we incur as a result of your actions and any other fees and expenses originally due to us on the total balance due as well as any fees and expenses we incur during the process of

canceling and re-selling the lot(s); or 6.1.2 Blacklist You We may blacklist you and prevent you from bidding with us indefinitely or for a finite amount of time, at our sole discretion, or we may require you to place a deposit with us before accepting future bids from you; or 6.1.3 Charge You Interest We may charge you interest at a rate of up to 1.5% per month (or, if less, the maximum allowable by law), on the amount of your unpaid balance. The first interest payment will accrue one month after the due date, and will continue to accrue for each month the balance is unpaid; or 6.1.4 Hold You Legally Responsible We can hold you legally responsible for the Total Purchase Price, plus any applicable fees or interests, and taxes, and choose to begin legal proceedings to recover it, as well as any additional legal fees, accounting fees, collections costs, incidental damages, expert fees or costs related to the matter.

6.2 Rescission of Sale Limitations If within six (6) months from the date of sale, the original buyer provides to Fortuna written notice claiming that the representation of a lot(s) is substantially incorrect with regards to the BOLD TEXT in the catalog lot title, based on a fair reading of the catalog in its entirety and including consideration of any amendments made by Fortuna prior to the sale, and so far as the claim is in full compliance with this Section 6.2 and the following Section 6.3, Fortuna will open a case internally for further investigation. However, to remain an open case under consideration, the original buyer and property must comply with all terms herein, as follows: (1) The property in question must be returned to Fortuna within ten calendar days after such notice was provided; (2) The property must be in the same condition as it was at the time of sale; (3) The buyer must be the original buyer; and (4) The notice provided must establish a claim that is substantially complete with all necessary details, including two (2) or more written opinions by recognized and credible experts in the field, as we may reasonably require, and according to our sole judgement.

Upon completion of and compliance with the prior terms, the case shall be reviewed by Fortuna and the sale of such lot will be rescinded and the original Total Purchase Price returned to the original buyer, unless we have already paid to the consignor proceeds owed him or her in connection with the sale, in which case we shall pay the original buyer an amount totaling the sum of the buyer’s premium we collected from the original buyer at the time of account settlement, as well as any recoverable taxes, fees, and expenses charged to the buyer’s account for that sale and collected from said buyer at the time of account settlement. Furthermore, we will demand of the consignor of said lot to pay the balance of the original Total Purchase Price to the original buyer. Should the consignor fail to pay such amount promptly, we may in our sole discretion disclose the identity of the consignor to the original buyer and assign to the original buyer our rights against the consignor with respect to the obligations the consignor has, if any, regarding warranties and representations, as well as the rights to collect on the subject lot under such conditions.

6.3 Claims of misrepresentation made by an original buyer will be considered unsubstantial and rescission of sale will be rejected if, for the lot(s) in question any of the following apply: (1) Representation of authenticity of such lot was in accordance with the generally-accepted opinion of specialists, scholars, and authorities of that time at the time of sale; or (2) It was specifically mentioned that there was an existing conflict in expert opinion between specialists, authorities, and/or scholars regarding the authenticity of the lot, at the time of sale; or (3) The representation of periods and/or dates in the catalog description were made using a reasonable amount of effort and with the tools and technology that were generally available and in common use at the time of | 105 |

Fortuna Buyer Terms and Conditions publishing the sale—furthermore, if new tools, knowledge, and/or technology exists at the time of the claim, that was either not in existence, for which the accuracy was in dispute, for which was not in practice, or for which was not practically obtainable at the time of publication.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
