HK$ 25,000-38,000 NT$ 101,000-154,000 US$ 3,200-4,900 清早期 宜興窯仿天青哥釉四方委角瓶

Made from the sands of Yixing, this vase has squared, downward turning corners and a short narrowed neck. This then flows into shoulders that continue into a rectangular midsection. Sitting on a flat square base, the vase continues to gradually narrow towards a square shaped bottom. The entire vase is covered in an azure glaze which seemingly pieces together broken fragments. Due to the thinness of the glaze at the vase's four corners, rugged lines of dark soil are exposed form underneath. The bottom is fully glazed with no writing. It's a square vase, with clean, streaming contours. The glazed surface gives a dignified elegant look. The piece was created

by Dabin's pupil, Zhenchun, during the Yixing era. 宜興砂胎，四方委角口，口緣下內斂，短束頸，溜肩，長四方腹， 腹下漸收，四邊起委角，平底，方圈足。通體施天青色釉，釉面開 細碎片紋，四邊角因釉薄之故，露出深色胎土的出筋線，底部滿 釉，無款。是件四方瓶，線條簡潔流暢，釉面幽雅凝重，或是出自 宜興時大彬弟子歐正春之手的「歐窯」佳器。

The words, "Made in the Guangxu Period of the Qing Dynasty," are written on the bottom in a iron red, Chinese calligraphy style and arranged in two lines of six characters.

The board takes on a peach shape, with the pointy edge facing the right and a raised rim framing the four sides. The front utilizes subtractive carving techniques to etch a dragon. The dragon's neck is turned to face forwards whilst its eyes are round and shaped like a pig's nose. Meanwhile, its antennas drift forward. The dragon's long body and wheel shaped claws make for a splendid and lively image in the tradition of dragon patterns during the Wanli Period. The back is smooth and bare with no special polish. Three sets of elephant noses are perforated near the sides in a tripartite arrangement. The entirety of the jade body glistens whilst the sculpting is intricate. What these things create is a stand-out piece of art. 桃形板片狀，尖端向右，四周起邊框，正面以減地技法雕一行龍， 行龍轉頸昂首，圓眼豬形鼻，探鬚向前飄揚，細身輪形爪，形象鮮 活，具有萬曆龍紋的時代風格。背面平整光素，不做細緻打磨，三 組象鼻穿孔於近周緣處做鼎足排列。通體玉質潤澤，雕工精美，顯 露不凡的藝術造詣。

a hornless dragon crawling upwards. At the other end, an openwork technique is also used to create intertwining studded ganoderma vines which serve as a handle. The lines of the ganoderma flow and hold a healthy posture. The patterns are arranged so as that from an observation of the surface, the images of the hornless dragon and ganoderma are combined as one. This also infers the meaning, "be tight lipped and live comfortably."

Gilt bronze figure wearing a helmet with a knot on top and a conical cap that spreads to cover the shoulders.

With a fair and handsome face that appears to be powdered, and lips that are red and full, the figure exudes a youthful energy beneath its armor and boots. In particular, a fine level of craftsmanship can be seen in the knee pieces. Both arms cross in front of its chest whilst one hand holds an official government seal. Standing on a low, rectangular seat, this figure is a standard representation of Guan Ping.

According to history, Guan Yu was deified after his death.

His temple was established at the ancient location of Junmin. As a deity, Guan Yu can often be seen attended by two people: on his left is, Zhou Cang; to his right, Guan Ping, holding a seal. 銅鎏金立像，頭戴兜鏊，頂有繫結，巾幘垂肩。臉形清 秀，面如敷粉，唇若塗脂，一派年輕俊俏的模樣。身 著披甲，足著戰靴，覆膊、膝甲雕工精細，雙臂交於胸 前，手捧官印，立於四方矮座之上，是典型的關平造 像。 史載，關羽死後被封為神祇，歷代君民皆為其設廟，配 享祭祀。做為神祇的關羽身邊常有兩人隨侍，左邊是仗 青龍偃月刀的周倉，右邊捧印的就是關平。

Featuring thick eyebrows, a moustache, and a goatee beard in five tufts, the plump face carries a solemn expression. The figure wears gold armor, robes, and a leather belt. Both arms hang naturally. The right arm appears as if ready to bow, whilst a clenched fist rests lightly near its waist. Its left palm faces downwards, gently touching its thigh. Robes drape down its knees.

On a cloud, the figure looks to be squatting comfortably.

Guan Yu was a famous general and champion during the Three Kingdoms Period China. Known for his loyalty and bravery, he was later deified as Guan Di.

A greenish-white jade rectangular table screen with partial brown spots and carvings on both sides. The front features a relief of a vast landscape of towering mountains, amongst which are several traditional pavilions. A winding path alludes to the poetic imagery of "A thousand hills, but no birds in flight; Ten thousand paths, with no persons in sight." The back features a gold foil engraving of an imperial poem, "Living amongst riches did not bring peace, so I retreated to Song Liao Mountain to live a hermit's life. A period of solitude brings joy to the mind, thus I plan to ride my horse to a far away place. Here, with its crisp and clear waters, is like no other place on earth. Vast nature stretch beyond, inviting me to live within her in solitude." The calligraphic work is of a orderly and flamboyant style, evoking a temperament of dignity.

Footnote: The featured imperial poem is poem number 124 from volume three page 49 of the Qing Gao Zong Prose Set. The piece was written in 1765 during Emperor Qianlong's fourth inspection tour of the south, therefore it is also included in The Nanxun Shengdian (The Southern Tour). 青白玉，局部有褐色斑。長方板片狀，兩面雕工。正面以俯視宏觀 視野與剔地浮雕技法，琢飾崇山峻嶺，此間參天古松掩映之處有亭 台樓閣數座，幽徑依山勢蜿蜒起伏，激盪出「千山鳥飛絕，萬徑人 踪滅」的縹緲景象。另一面以陰刻填金技法，鐫〈御製詩〉一首， 詩曰：「三度駐金未駐焦，隱虞頓置笑松寥。回鑾得趁一時興，策 騎偷逍十裡遙。信是無雙棲淨域，還因有暇涉崇椒。水天俯仰惟空 闊，小矣奚稱隱士招。」所鐫字體工整，氣勢飛動，予人莊重端正 之感。 註：插屏所鐫〈御製詩〉係出自《清高宗御製詩文集》(第三集，卷 四十九，古今體一百二十四首，乙酉七)，原名為〈自丹徒跋馬至象 山渡江駐焦山〉。又乙酉年為乾隆三十年（1765），乃乾隆皇帝第 四次南巡期間，因亦記載了南巡的相關事蹟，故也收錄於《欽定南 巡盛典》之中。

It does not reveal its hidden meaning, yet the world is already stunned; It does not reject being felled, but who could move it? How can the bitter heart of the tree avoid enduring crickets and ants; its fragrant leaves are in the end home to phoenixes. Gentlemen aspiring to benevolence – do not complain or lament; since ancient times, talent has been hard to use." The last plaque features two two-character seals, "Bi De" and "Lang Run". It is dated as being from winter of the Dingmao Year.

With its polished texture and beautiful carvings, this set of white jade plaques with sophisticated calligraphy inscriptions is not only aesthetically to the eye, but also rich in meaning.

Held up by three short legs, this bamboo carving possesses a round opening and a cylindrical abdominal. The rim is inlaid with a ring of rosewood. The literary pictures on the outer wall were carved by integrating the techniques of openwork and incision. An openwork technique is used to construct the appearance of a rocky mountain.

With the full use of openwork, the outer appearance seems to possess a sense of visual penetration. Close-up, towering pines offset the ease of green peaks, and we are able to see a gathering of elegant women. Wearing graceful clothing, the noble people bear a sense of casual elegance.

Under pines and cypresses, a herd of deer are leisurely running around, creating a peaceful scene of well-being. It is a piece of a hundred deer that mimics the shape of porcelain, also known as a piece of a hundred deer heads. This is an integral furnishing to the Qing Dynasty palace. 金屬胎，圓口起唇緣，短頸，溜肩，垂腹，腹以下漸收，下承廣圈 足。肩腹兩側安一對鎏金螭龍耳，腹壁外施淺藍色琺瑯釉為地，復 飾掐絲琺瑯百鹿山水圖。近口緣下一圈二方連續三角幾何紋，幾何 紋下飾一匝三角幾何垂珠紋。近底部一圈變形蕉葉紋，圈足外飾捲 草花卉紋。是件百鹿尊的構圖繁複，蒼松翠柏下群鹿悠哉地奔跑， 營造一種祥和安樂的太平情景。是類百鹿尊應是摹擬瓷器的造型， 又稱鹿頭尊，是清代宮廷不可或缺的大型陳設器。

8025 A GILT BRONZE FIGURE OF MAUDGALYAYANA 17th Century H: 32.5 cm

HK$ 550,000-800,000 NT$ 2,227,000-3,239,000 US$ 70,900-103,200 17 世紀 銅鎏金目犍連尊者立像

This gilt bronze figure has a thick gold coating. In a standing position, Maudgalyayana possesses a square head with a round top. With beads hanging from both ears and a benevolent face, the figure wears a chest robe on its upper body and a dhoti on its lower body, matching the appearance of a Buddhist monk. The figure's left arm is pressed against the chest for mendicancy, whilst the right arm hangs down naturally holding a cane (lost). The dhoti tightly fits the lower body with smoothly flowing pleated lines. Barefooted, the figure stands on a lotus pedestal. There is a flame pattern branded on its back. This statue of Maudgalyayana stands upright, embodying the spirit of heroism. The clothing lines seem natural and realistic. The statue bears the fine details of carving. This is a rare Buddhist statue of exceptional value.

Maudgalyayana is also known as Maha Maudgalyayana, wherein the "Maha" is Sanskrit. It contains three meanings: great, numerous, and victorious. Because this elder was respected by the king, he is considered to be "large". He was able to learn all of the classics written in Tripitaka Twelve, thus the meaning of "numerous" applies to him. He was also different from other non-traditionalists in that he was able to surpass them, thus the meaning of "victorious" applies to him. In addition, "Maudgalyayana" can be translated from Sanskrit to "Selecting Legumes." "Selecting" means to "select and take", while "Legumes" are a type of bean. "Selecting Legumes" is his surname. It is also translated to "Radish Root" which is basically a radish. As his ancestors cultivated themselves according to a religious doctrine, they ate this kind of food. "Radish Root" therefore became their surname. His first name is "Kolita" which is the name of a particular tree. His parents planted this tree and prayed there. This led to the birth of Maudgalyayana and his parents so forth named him Kolita.

In Buddhism, Maudgalyayana is considered to be "foremost in supernatural powers," possessing the greatest supernatural powers. Having just been licensed as an Arhat and whilst still cultivating himself according to a religious doctrine, he obtained six kinds of supernatural powers: the divine eye, a divine ear, telepathy, the ability to remember one's former abodes, extinction of mental intoxicants, and higher powers.

8026 A PAIR OF YELLOW JADE BRACELETS WITH DRAGONS AND MICE CARVINGS 17th Century D: 7 cm

HK$ 500,000-750,000 NT$ 2,024,000-3,036,000 US$ 64,500-96,700 17 世紀 黃玉子辰紋鐲一對

Specially selected from yellow Nephrite, the jade of these items is purely colored. Some parts contain a brown matte coloration.

The bodies of the bracelets are formed into Chi dragons with their heads connected to their tails. With fat and lean bodies integrated together, the curves of the dragon are graceful and elegant. There are embossed money mice near the ends of the bracelets, forming a "Zi-Chen" theme. The mouse is ordered as "Zi" in the Chinese zodiac and the Twelve Earthly Branches, whilst the dragon is ordered as "Chen". Therefore, the combination of two images embodies the meaning of "Zi-Chen". In the Han Dynasty, the meaning of blessings and peace was bestowed upon Zi-Chen. However, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zi-Chen obtained the auspicious connotation of "having great hopes for one's offspring." 精選頂級和闐黃玉，玉色凝純，局部有褐色斑。玉鐲的主體做一首 尾相銜的環形螭龍，螭龍身軀肥瘦合宜，曲線優美，近尾端並浮雕 一尾錢鼠，形成典型的「子辰」題材。根據紋樣寓意顯示，鼠在中 國傳統生肖與十二干支的組合排序為「子」，而龍則為「辰」，因 此兩相結合即有「子辰」的意象，漢代的子辰珮被賦予保佑平安的 表徵，爾後延續至明清時期，子辰則有望子成龍的吉祥寓意。

This porcelain integrates glaze and underglaze. In the production process, high-temperature firing is first applied to the porcelain. Next, yellow glaze is applied to the blank spaces. Finally, the porcelain is baked at a low temperature between 850 degrees to 900 degrees.

Among many monochrome glazes, the yellow glaze had the strictest control by the royal family. Because the Chinese characters for "yellow" and "emperor" sound very similar, yellow glaze porcelain in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was only permitted for royal usage, and no one was allowed to overstep the emperor's authority.

This particular pattern originated from a mysterious blue-bronze pattern. Furthermore, the character looks similar to the character "明" from the Jin Dynasty. Deriving from the meaning of the Jin character, it therefore could also mean bright. Sanskrit writings appeared on Guan kilns (imperial kiln) as recent as the Ming Dynasty.

Similar blue Baochu pattern plates were made in the Yongzheng period as well. Most surviving blue Baochu pattern plates have

8039 A JINGDEZHENG YAO IRON-RED VASE Yuan Dynasty H: 25 cm PROVENANCE: Sotheby's London 5 December,1995, lot384

HK$ 800,000-1,200,000 NT$ 3,239,000-4,858,000 US$ 103,200-154,700 元 景德鎮窯釉裡紅纏枝靈芝紋玉壺春瓶

|

94

This bottle consists of an angled mouth, a long slim neck, dropped shoulders and a dropped belly supported by a round, outward angling foot. The entire body is covered in white glaze with iron red decorative patterns. There are two circles of bow string patterns on either end of the neck. The bow string patterns are made of simple Jianyei patterns filled with branches of Lingzhi. To create the Lingzhi, an outline was first drawn with a fine brush, then colored in with glaze. This underglaze red bottle stands out and excels with its smooth contours and rich color.

Iron red is an innovation of the Yuan Dynasty Jingdezheng kiln.

Oxidized bronze is the main ingredient for the pigment. After drawing with the color, a layer of transparent glaze is applied to the piece before it is fired under high heat. However, it is very difficult to control the temperature of the kiln with oxidized bronze. Therefore, most Yuan Dynasty underglaze red vessels turned out black or with bleeding colors. This particular bottle is one of the few pieces with vibrant red color and clear decorative patterns, making it a rare and precious find. 撇口，細長頸，溜肩，垂腹，下承外撇圈足。通體施白釉，以釉裡 紅裝飾紋樣。頸壁上下各飾兩圈弦紋，兩弦紋內繪簡化的尖葉紋， 尖葉紋內填飾折枝靈芝。腹壁飾纏枝靈芝，所飾靈芝先以細筆勾勒 輪廓，然後在雙鉤線內敷填釉彩，整體線條流暢，發色艷紅，是元 代釉裡紅新興產品中的醒目佳作。 釉裡紅是元代景德鎮窯新創燒的品種，主要以氧化銅為著色彩料， 然後施透明釉於高溫下燒成。不過由於氧化銅的窯爐氣氛不好控 制，因此元代釉裡紅的發色不是泛黑，就是多有「飛紅」現象，惟 本件釉裡紅釉色紅艷而且紋飾尚稱清晰，故在元代釉裡紅瓷器中， 實屬難能可貴。

8041 A JIZHOU TORTOISESHELL GLAZED VASE Song Dynasty H: 25 cm

HK$ 500,000-750,000 NT$ 2,024,000-3,036,000 US$ 64,500-96,700 宋 吉州窯玳瑁釉玉壺春瓶

Featuring a angled mouth, long neck, sloped shoulders, hanging abdomen, and wide foot, the body of this spring flower vase is covered in a tortoiseshell glaze save for its foot, which is unglazed.

Tortoiseshell glaze is a type of colored ceramic glaze used in Jizhou Yao, giving vases a colorful hue similar to that of hawksbill sea turtles.

As a result, it has been dubbed "tortoiseshell glaze." The glazing process for tortoiseshell consists of first covering the body with a high iron glaze before randomly sprinkling a second, lighter toned layer.

Under the high temperatures of a kiln, the artistic effect of dark and light-colored patches is formed.

Fully-shaped without being excessive, this spring flower vase features a straight neck and a rounded vertical abdomen that are stunningly proportionate in combination. In addition, the natural arrangement of tortoiseshell markings exude a rich and pleasant visual sensation. 撇口，長頸，溜肩，垂腹，廣圈足。通體施玳瑁釉，底足不掛釉。 玳瑁釉是吉州窯的一種窯變色斑釉，因其色相與海龜玳瑁相似，以 致被冠以玳瑁釉的美稱。玳瑁釉施釉工序是，先在坯體上罩一種含 鐵量很高的釉料，然後隨意甩灑另一種色調較淺的色釉，再於窯爐 的高溫作用下，形成深色地淺色斑的藝術效果。 本件玉壺春瓶的造型豐而不腴，碩頸的勁挺與垂腹的渾圓，形成絕 美的比例組合，除此之外，全器甩灑自然的玳瑁斑，更讓人有目不 暇給的豐盛喜悅。

saucer, and a tall, outward sloping foot. The entire body is covered in in a thin glaze, revealing a faintly white tone. With a beautiful shape, a delicate body, and a moist glaze, this ware serves as an excellent example of a Ding ware cup and saucer set.

Cup and saucer combinations were popular wares during the Song Dynasty due to the prominence of tea culture at the time. In the production of cup and saucer combinations, various different kilns and shapes were used. However, the Ding Yao persimmon-glazed cup

and saucer were, regardless of era, truly rare items. 盞托共分三部分，分別由圓形盞、淺腹盤與外撇高圈足組成，通體 施柿釉，盞與盤的口緣薄釉處露出淺白色的燈草口，全器造型秀 美，胎質細膩，釉水滋潤，為定窯盞托中的成功佳作。 盞托為宋代流行的品種之一，這或與當時熾熱的飲茶風氣有關，惟 盞托的窯口與造型各有不同，但諸如定窯中的柿釉盞托，無論是當 時與傳世精品，都屬不可多得。

Important Notice Attention, the Prospective Buyers: As far as possible, the descriptions of auction items will mention obvious defects of the items; however, they do not necessarily include all flaws, defects, or incomplete aspects. The Company does not guarantee that the Lots on auction are in good working condition and the descriptions in the catalogue must not be construed as implying such. The description of the auction items also do not imply that the items have not gone through readjustment or repair or allude anything about the current state or storage conditions of the items. Any omission in the catalogue description regarding the current condition or the appraisal of defects in the items by no means represent that those items are in good condition, function normally, or that there will be any free repair or replacement of parts. We strongly recommend the Prospective Buyers to personally view the items for which they plan to bid before the auction itself. If a Prospective Buyer is unable to view an item for whatever reason, then in our role as a service provider, we would be more than happy to offer our opinion of an item’s special characteristics and current condition. However, the Company is not a professional restorer of the Lots; therefore, any description in the catalogue or any statement provided by the Company is purely the Company’s subjective opinion and not a statement of fact, not for representations or warranties.

d. Catalogue Explanations Any statement of the author, history, date, year, size, material, ownership, authenticity, origin, condition of preservation or estimated selling price of any of the Lots and certificates thereof shown in the catalogue or the authentication opinion made by the Company, or any other verbal or written statements made separately shall be solely statements of opinions and shall not be deemed the basis for the statements of actual fact. The photographs shown in the catalogue shall serve as reference only and shall not be deemed as the basis for determining the color or tone of any Lots or disclosure of the defects of such item. The estimates of the auction price shall not be deemed the price at which such item will be successfully sold or the statement of the value of the item for other purposes.

Many auction items fail to maintain their perfect condition because of time and other environmental factors. Some of the explanations in the catalogue or the authentication opinions will state defects and/or the repair background of the Lots. Such information is meant for reference only. Missing information in the statements does not mean the Lot has no defects or has not been repaired. Any statement of one particular defect does not mean there is no any other defect. e. Responsibility of the Buyer The Buyer is responsible for clarifying and satisfying himself about the condition of the items and any related matters stated in the catalogue descriptions and making his/her own judgment or estimation independently regarding the items.

If the Company receives several commission bids for one particular item, with all bid prices being equal and of the highest bid price at the auction, priority shall be given to the Buyer whose bid commission is delivered to the Company first. Commission bids are subject to auction conditions. The situation at the auction may prevent the Company from making the bid as commissioned. This is a free service provided by the Company to the Prospective Buyers pursuant to the provisions prescribed.

(3)If the Buyer owes the Company several payments as a result of different transactions, the payments will setoff any payments due in any particular transaction, regardless of whether the Buyer specifies to setoff such payments.

(4)Refuse the Buyer to make, or to make on behalf of others, bids in any future auctions and/ or to require a security deposit from the Buyer before accepting any future bids from him.

If the Buyer fails to make payment within 35 days, the Company is entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights in addition to the aforementioned: (a)To bring legal proceedings against the Buyer on behalf of the Seller to claim the entire payment due and the legal fees and attorney fees resulting from such proceeding based on a total claim.

Export Permit Except where otherwise agreed in writing by the Company, the fact that the Buyer’s wishes to apply for an export permit does not affect the Buyer’s responsibility to make the payments in 7 days following the auction date; nor does it affect the Company’s right to impose interest on delayed payments.

If the Buyer requests that the Company applies for the export permit on his behalf, the Company is entitled to collect monies made in connection with such an application and any miscellaneous expenses together with any relevant value added taxes.

If the Buyer makes the payment regardless of the fact that an export permit is needed, the Company is not responsible for returning to the Buyer any interest or other expenses incurred therefrom.

Otherwise, whether the Buyer, the Company, any employees or agents of the Company will not be held liable for any statements of the author, history, date, year, ownership, authenticity or origin of any auction item or any errors with respect to any explanations and any flaws or defects of any auction item. The Buyer, the Company, the employees or the agents of the Company make no guarantee impliedly or explicitly with respect to any auction items. Any warranty of any kind shall not be included herein.

6. Return of Payments for Counterfeits The transaction will be cancelled and payments made before remit to the Seller will be returned to the Buyer if the Lot of the Company is confirmed to be a counterfeit by the professional appraisal party agreed and recognized by the Company in writing. However, if: a. The catalogue explanations or the notice at the auction distributed on the auction day corresponds to the opinions generally accepted by the academic or professional fields or explicitly indicates it conflicts with the opinions generally accepted by the academic or professional fields; or b. The method used to prove that the Lot is a counterfeit is a scientific procedure not generally accepted for use before the publication of the catalogue or a procedure unreasonably expensive on the day of the auction, or impractical, or may cause damage to the Lot; the Company is not liable for the return of any payment under any circumstances. In addition, the Buyer’s payment can only be refunded when the following terms are met: 1. The Buyer must notify the Company in writing within 10 days following the auction day that he considers the relevant auction item a counterfeit. The Buyer must return the Lot to the Company within the following 14 days after notice and the said notice and the condition of the item must be the same as on the auction day and without any damage.

2. Upon returning the Lot, the Buyer must present evidence as soon as possible to convince the Company that the Lot is a counterfeit (The Company has the final and sole discretion and decision and such decision shall not be objected in this regard). The Buyer may also assign the good ownership of the Lot to the Company, which shall not concern any third party claim.

Under no circumstances is it necessary for the Company to pay the Buyer an amount more than what the Buyer pays in connection with the Lot and the Buyer can not claim interests.

The interests of the warrantee cannot be assigned and belong solely to the Buyer who receives the original invoice on which such Buyer’s name is recorded from the Company when the Lot is sold.

Such Buyers shall remain the owner of the auction Lot and cannot assign any interest of the Lot to any other person. The Company is entitled to ascertain that the Lot is not a counterfeit based on a scientific procedure or any other procedure, regardless of whether such procedure is being used on the day of the auction.If the result of appraising and verifying whether the Lot is a counterfeit by the Company conflicts with the evidence provided by the Buyer, the Company’s said result shall prevail over the evidence provided by the Buyer.

Article 3.The Seller 1. The Company as the Agent The Company acts as the agent of the Seller at a public auction. The Closing Agreement of the Lot is the agreement by and between the Buyer and the Seller, through the agency of the Company on behalf of the Seller. The Seller shall be responsible to the Buyer for performing the obligations and responsibility of a seller.

2. Expenses The Seller shall bear costs relating to the following: a. Packing of the Lot and shipping to the Company for the auction b. Any applicable shipping insurance c.

The administration cost of the Company reaches the total amount of 10% of all the expenses and 10% of the damages incurred as a result of client services provided. j. Any marketing and promotional expenses 3. Insurance Coverage to be Arranged by the Company a. Unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the Lot will be automatically insured under the the Company art relic policy in the amount as deemed appropriate and estimated by the Company.

However, the insured amount is not the amount the Company undertakes to be successfully reached during the auction. b. The Company will collect 1% of the hammer price from the Seller or 1% of the Reserve Price if the Lot is not successfully auctioned as the insurance fee. If the shipping is arranged by the Company, an additional amount will be collected by the Company from the Seller as the shipping insurance. Such amount varies depending on the individual condition of each auction item. The Company will refer a freight forwarder if necessary. However, in no event shall the Company be not responsible for any legal responsibilities and liabilities incurred therefrom. c. The Lot will remain insured up to 7 days after the auction date. If the Lot has not been sold, it will be at the Seller’s risk upon the expiry of 7 days. d. We are unable to accept responsibility for damage caused by woodworm or changes in atmospheric conditions, moisture, force majeure or unforeseeable conditions, or any reason not attributable to the Company.

The Seller must informby himself/herself the underwriter of the Seller the provision herein.

5. Commitments Made by the Seller with Respect to the Lot The standards for the Company to handle the Lots are provided hereunder. These standards also stipulate and limit the sale relationship between the Seller and Buyer. In the event such standards are incorrect in any aspect, the Company or the Buyer may bring legal actions against the Seller.

The Company should base the purchase and handling of auction items on the following undertaking made by the Seller: a. The Seller is the only legal owner of the Lot and has the unlimited rights to assign his ownership to the Buyer which should not concern any third party right or claim (including but without limitations copyright claims, liens, mortgage). b.

i. 出口許可證 除本公司另有書面同意外，買家希望申請出口許可證之事實，並不影響買家在成功拍 賣日後起算七天內付款之責任，亦不影響本公司對延遲付款收取利息之權利。 如買家要求本公司代為申請出口許可證，本公司有權向其收回與此項申請有關之付出款 項及零碎開支連同任何有關之稅款。 如買家不管需要有出口許可證之事實而作出付款，本公司並無責任退還買家因此而引致 之任何利息或其他開支。 5. 本公司之法律責任 本公司僅在第二條第6項所列之情況下，得將退還款項予買家。除此之外，不論賣家或本 公司，或本公司任何僱員或代理人，對任何拍賣品之作者、來歷、日期、年代、尺寸、 材質、歸屬、真實性、產地、保存狀況或估計售價之陳述，或任何拍賣品之任何缺陷， 均不負有任何責任。賣家、本公司、本公司之僱員或代理人，不論明示或暗示，均無就 任何拍賣品作出任何保證。 6. 贗品/贓物之退款 如經本公司拍賣之拍賣品，經本公司書面認可之專業鑑定機構出具鑑定報告證實為贗品 或贓物，則交易將取消，已付之款項於交付賣方前將退還予買家。但如： a. 在拍賣日發出之目錄說明或拍賣場通告符合當時學者或專家普遍接納之意見，或清楚 表明有抵觸當時學者或專家普遍接納之意見，或 b. 證明拍賣品為贗品之方法，只是一種在目錄出版前仍未普遍獲接納使用之科學程序， 或是一種在拍賣日仍屬昂貴得不合理或並不實際或很可能會對拍賣品造成損壞之程 序，則本公司無論如何並無責任退還任何款項。此外，買家只在滿足下述條件下方可 獲得退款： 1. 買家必須在付款領取拍賣品後的十日內以書面通知本公司，說明買家認為有關拍賣 品乃贗品或贓物之詳細理由及證據，並通知後十四日內及將拍賣品送還本公司，而 其狀況應維持與拍賣當日相同，不得有任何損壞；及 2. 送還拍賣品時，買家須出示證據，足以使本公司確信拍賣品乃贗品或贓物(本公司保 有最終及不可異議的決定權)。在任何情況下，本公司均毋須向買家支付多於買家就 有關拍賣品而支付予本公司之款項，而買家亦不能索取利息或任何賠償。 本條款之利益不能轉讓，完全屬於拍賣品成功拍賣時獲本公司發給正本發票之買家所有 (該買家名稱確係被記載於發票上)，該名買家並須自拍賣後一直保持拍賣品擁有人之身 分，而且並無將拍賣品之任何利益讓予任何第三人。本公司有權依據任何科學程序或其 他程序確定拍賣品並非贗品，不論該程序在拍賣當日是否已使用或已在使用，如本公司 驗證拍賣品是否屬於贗品之結果與買家出示證據相衝突者，應以本公司驗證結果為準。 三.賣家 1. 本公司作為代理人 本公司在公開拍賣會中，以作為賣家代理人身份行事。拍賣品成功拍賣後，即產生賣家 通過本公司之代理與買家達成之合約，由賣家負責向買家履行出賣人義務及責任。 2. 開支 賣家須負責與下述各項有關之費用： a. 將拍賣品包裝並運予本公司作拍賣。 b. 任何適用之運送保險。 c. 如拍賣品交回賣家其包裝與付運。若拍賣品由海外進口，付運費與進口適用之稅項。 d. 受保於本公司之精品保險單（下文另有解釋）。 e. 預先與賣家協定之對拍賣品作出之任何修整。 f. 本公司為擬定目錄說明指定需由外界專家作出之鑑定。 g. 本公司指定之任何外界專家意見。 h. 拍賣品拍賣前後之裝卸、貯存及保管等費用。 i. 本公司之行政費用，金額為因賣家而引致之一切費用及損害金額之10%。 j. 任何市場之推廣及廣告費用。 3. 由本公司安排保險事宜 a. 除非與本公司另有協定外，否則拍賣品將自動受保於本公司藝術品精品保險單，保險 值為本公司自行評估 當時認為適當者。然而保險金額並非本公司承諾拍賣品會成功拍 賣之款額。 b. 本公司將向賣家收取拍賣落槌價之1%或若未拍賣成功時以拍賣品底價之1%，作為保險 費。如由本公司安排運送，本公司將向賣家收取額外款項，作為運送保險費，款額視 每宗拍賣品之特定情況而定。如有需要，本公司可建議/介紹承運人，但不論於何種情 況下，本公司均不承擔任何有關此方面之運送法律責任。 c. 拍賣品在成功拍賣日後起算七天內保險仍然有效。如拍賣品未能成功拍賣，保險屆期 以後風險全由賣家承擔。 d. 由蛀木蟲、空氣、水份情況轉變或其他不能預見或人力不可抗拒情況而對拍賣品造成 之損壞，或其他非可歸責於本公司之事由所致之損壞，本公司不承擔任何法律責任。 4. 物主購買保險 如賣家特別指示本公司毋須為拍賣品購買保險，風險全由賣家承擔，直至拍賣品交付予 買家為止。賣家無條件同意須保障本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人，以及買家（如適 用）免負因拍賣品而針對本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人，以及買家索償之賠償責任， 而不論索償因何引起。賣家亦同意應本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人，以及買家所要 求，負責償還因此種索償而引致之開支，縱使本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人，以及買 家有疏忽之處，而未證明有任何法律責任而作出之付款，亦須償還。賣家須自行將本條 條款揭露予賣家之承保人。 5. 賣家就拍賣品所作之承諾 本項列出本公司處理拍賣品之基準，規範賣家與買家之間的買賣關係。如此基準在任何 方面有不確實之處，本公司或買家可採取針對賣家之法律行動。本公司處理拍賣品及購 買拍賣品，均以賣家所作之下述承諾及擔保為基準，賣家承諾及擔保如下： a. 賣家為拍賣品之唯一所有權人及/或合法持有人，具備將其所有權及相關所有權利(於無 質押、無產權負擔及無涉及第三人權益或申索的情況下)轉讓予買家之無限制權利。 b. 賣家已遵守一切與拍賣品之進出口有關之法律或其他方面之規定，並已將過去任何第 三人未能遵守此等規定之事以書面通知本公司。 c. 賣家已將其所知之有關拍賣品之任何重大修改以及第三人就拍賣品之所有權、狀況或 歸屬所表示之任何關注以書面通知本公司。 如上述a、b或c等三項擔保有任何不確實之處，賣家須應本公司及/或買家之要求，完全負 責及彌償本公司及 或買家一切因此而引起之損失索償、訴訟費、律師費、所有費用及 開支，而不論是因拍賣品還是因拍賣收益而引起。

6.拍賣安排 a.本公司對目錄內拍賣品之描述與圖示方式、鑑定意見書、拍賣地點與方式、讓何人進場 競投以及競投價之接受、是否應尋求專家意見，以及將物品合併或分開拍賣等均有完 全之決定權。 b.任何估價，不論口頭或書面，均只屬意見，而非拍賣品最終可賣得的價錢之保證。 c.未得本公司事前書面同意，賣家不可撤回拍賣品之委託。但本公司保留隨時因後述原因 而撤回、中止或終止拍賣品委託授權之權利。此等原因為： (1)本公司對拍賣品之界定或真實性或上述第5a、 b或c項所指之承諾之準確性有懷疑； 或 (2)有任何違反本業務規則之情況；或 (3)本公司認定將拍賣品納入或繼續執行拍賣並不適當者。 d. 撤銷委託或授權條款 (1)非經本公司事前書面同意，賣家不得撤回、中止或終止對於標的作品之委託或授予 本公司之權利。 (2)賣家依前項規定撤回、中止或終止拍賣品之委託或授與本公司之權利者，委託者除 應對本公司負損害賠償或經濟上損失賠償責任外，尚須支付委託底價之40%作為懲 罰性違約金付與本公司。 (3)如賣家有任何違約情事，本公司有權隨時終止委託事項，賣家須支付本公司所有之 前為履行委託或授權工作所產生之費用及開支。 7. 拍賣守則 a. 本公司將會參照底價進行拍賣品之拍賣程序。底價不得高於拍賣目錄所印登載估價之 下限，但如所同意之底價為港幣以外之貨幣，並因協定底價之日與成功拍賣之日上匯 率波動而致底價高於估價下限，則不在此限。在此情況下，除本公司另行同意外，底 價須為相等於以緊接成功拍賣前一個工作天之收市匯率計算之港幣款項。 b. 如競投價不能達到底價，本公司在任何情況均不負有任何責任，但本公司有權決定將 拍賣品以低於底價拍賣。如本公司如此將拍賣品拍賣，本公司將有責任向賣家支付成 交價與底價之差額。 c. 賣家不得以自己或第三人名義隨意哄抬競投價格，不得以自己或第三人名義參與競標 拍賣品，亦不得聘請任何人代賣家參與競投，惟本公司有權代理賣家參與競投。 8.成功拍賣後 a. 結算 成功拍賣後，本公司協助賣方要求買家最遲於成功拍賣日後7日內全數付款。在買家付 款後，除非本公司收到通知謂拍賣品為贗品，否則，本公司會於成功拍賣日期後60個 工作天，將一筆相等於成交價減去賣家應支付之所有費用之款額匯予賣家。如遇買家 延遲付款，則本公司將在買家付款後7個工作天內匯款予賣家。如因任何理由而使本公 司在買家付款前即已付款予賣家，則本公司即獲得拍賣品之完整之擁有權與所有權。 但在本公司因拍賣品為贗品而被迫向買家收回拍賣品下，賣家方須將已收取之拍賣收 益退還予本公司。 除賣家另有書面指示外，本公司將以港幣付款。如賣家要求以港幣以外之貨幣付款， 依拍賣現場由香港匯豐銀行公佈之匯率計算付款金額。 b.賣家支付每件拍賣品之手續費： (1)本公司之拍賣須至拍賣完成後買家實際付清所有款項予本公司時，視為交易完成。 (2)當交易完成，賣家須依約定支付本公司手續費。 c. 買家不付款 如買家在成功拍賣日後起算7天內未支付應付之全部款項，本公司即有權代理賣家就 付款、貯存與保險而協定特別條款，並有權代理賣家採取本公司認為適當的任何步驟 以向買家收取其應付之款項，因而產生之相關費用及損害，概由賣家自行承擔。但本 公司並未承擔任何付款責任，亦無義務代理賣家採取任何行動(包括但不限於法律行 動)。但本公司將與賣家討論如何採取適當行動以向買家追討拍賣款額。 d. 贗品/贓物 如買家於付款領取拍賣品後之十日內，使本公司相信或懷疑拍賣品為贗品或贓物或涉 及任何不法情事者，本公司得自行決定無條件買家交付之拍賣落槌價(本公司得扣處因 此所致之相關處理費用)予買家時，而拍賣品將由本公司退回賣家或送交警方處理，賣 家不得異議或對本公司主張任何權利或請求，賣家並應於本公司通知後，於三日內無 條件退還其所得之全數金額予本公司，賣家並應於十日內付清相關基本支出費用，及 賠償本公司因此所致之所有損失、損害及相關費用等。逾期退還、給付者，賣家應另 外支付按不超過香港匯豐銀行最優惠利率加10%之年利率收取整筆欠款之利息。此外 本公司可同時按日收取依賣價（含佣金）1％計算之違約金。本公司亦得自行選擇將賣 家未付之款項，用以抵銷本公司或其他附屬公司在任何其他交易中欠下賣家之款項， 賣家絕無異議。 e. 未能成功拍賣之拍賣品 (1)任何拍賣品如未能成功拍賣，或不包括在拍賣之內，或因任何理由而撤回、中止或 終止拍賣，則在本公司發出通知予賣家要求賣家領回拍賣品後之35天內，賣家必須 領回拍賣品。 (2)任何此等拍賣品如在35天過期後仍未領回，本公司可向委託者徵收每天每件標的作 品參佰港元 (HK$300)貯存費，並收取額外費用以購買保險。賣家須在付清所有未付 費用後，方可領回拍賣品。 (3)此等拍賣品如在發出領回通知後之60天內仍未領回，則可被移往第三人之貨倉貯 存，開支費用由賣家承擔。 (4)任何此等拍賣品如在拍賣日期後或上述通知日期後之90天內（以較早之日期為準） 未被領回，則本公司可視乎是否合適而將該拍賣品處置。處置包括將拍賣品移往第 三人之貨倉而開支費由賣家承擔，以及將該拍賣品按本公司認為適當之條款（包括 有關估價與底價之條款）公開拍賣。本公司其後會將拍賣收益扣除所有欠款後支付 予賣家。 (5)任何拍賣品如在拍賣中收回或未能成功拍賣，則本公司有權代理賣家在拍賣後的兩 個月內作為賣家之獨家代理人，按賣家可收取之淨款額（即扣除賣家應付之一切費 用後之款額），私下出售拍賣品。本公司得事前扣除所致之費用。在此情況下，賣 家就該拍賣品而對本公司所負有之責任、義務及付款條件等，與拍賣品成功拍賣時 一樣。 9. 圖片與圖示 賣家同意本公司有權對拍賣品制作照片、圖示、錄像或其他形式的影像制品，此等照 片、圖示、錄像及影像制品之著作權及其他一切權利均屬本公司所有，且本公司有權以 任何本公司認為適合之方式使用之，賣家絕無異議。

10.稅制 a. 依香港稅法規定，拍賣品成交後委託者須提供報稅名單及相關資料，由本公司提報稅 捐單位。 b. 如果賣家為香港公司或香港居民，根據香港稅法，本公司毋須向賣家代扣香港利得 稅。如果本公司其後發現賣家之聲明及文件不實，本公司保留向賣家追討香港稅款及 其他相關費用（如利息、罰款及律師費等）的權利。 c. 若委託者非香港本地人士，委託者並同意本公司直接代扣落槌價或底價(如底價高於落 槌價)之0.5%，作為拍出後之利得稅，由本公司代為申報並繳交稅捐單位。由本公司 扣除的款項將隨著當時的稅率而調整。 四.買家與賣家均適用之條件 1. 智慧財產權 與拍賣品有關之一切影像、圖示與書面材料之相關智慧財產權(包括但不限於著作權、 專利等)，於任何時候均屬於本公司之財產及所有。未得本公司事先書面同意，賣家、 買家或任何人均不得使用。 2. 通知 a. 根據本業務規則發出之通知，均須以書面發出。如採用郵遞發出，則在付郵寄出後第 二個工作天，視為收件人已合法收受；如收件人在海外，則為付郵寄出後第五個工作 天，視為收件人已合法收受。 b. 本公司根據本業務規則、委託授權書或買家所提供之聯絡資料對賣家或買家發出之通 知，凡已依據委託授權書後附或買家所提供資料上所載的地址、電子郵件地址或傳真 號碼統稱「聯絡方式」)以書面發出該通知者，均視為該通知已有效發出。若賣家或 買家之聯絡方式有變更時，應立即以書面通知本公司。 3.可分割性 a. 如本業務規則有任何部份遭任何法院認定為無效、不合法或不可強制執行，則該部分 可不予理會，而本業務規則之其他條款仍繼續有效及可強制執行。 b. 本業務規則第二條買家條款項下之各條款，專屬適用本公司與買家間法律關係，賣家 不得主張適用。本業務規則第三條賣家條款項下之各條款，專屬適用於本公司與賣家 間法律關係，買家不得主張適用。 4.本業務規則同時存在中文及英文版本，如二版本內容有所歧異，應以中文版條文為準。 5. 本業務規則得隨時由本公司修改，買方及賣方均同意遵守修改後之業務規則。 6. 法律及管轄權 本業務規則受香港法律規範，本業務規則之解釋與效力均適用香港法律。賣家與買家須 服從香港法院之排他性管轄權。
