I liked the quality of this auction

Carl Ferdinand Schaedler Auction Results

I guess that Mr Schaedler will be happy with the amount of money he will receive, but I guess it was not his ideato go back home with 86 % of his pieces.

Some of the top quality pieces found a new home, and also the cheapest priced items (that probably where sold without a limit price)
