• Important Notice to Buyers

Any reference to condition in the catalogue is for general guidance only and does not constitute a full condition report. These are available upon request. 

Some countries e.g., the US, prohibit or restrict the purchase by its citizens (wherever located) and/or the import of certain types of Iranian-origin works. It is each buyer's responsibility to ensure that they do not bid or import a lot in contravention of the sanctions or trade embargoes that apply to them. Where possible we have, as a convenience to the buyer, noted in the catalogue if the lot is subject to the US embargo on the import of carpets of Iranian origin as of August 6th 2018.

• AAR: Lots marked with ‘ARR’ may be subject to a levy. This levy is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or to the artist’s heir each time a work is resold during the artist’s lifetime and up to a period of 70 years after the artist’s death. Royalties are calculated on a cumulative sliding percentage scale based on the hammer price excluding the buyer’s premium. Please see our full terms for further info.

CONDITION REPORTS: Lots offered for sale will be available for viewing in person at such place and times as are advised. We always recommend inspection in person. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to examine personally any goods in which they are interested BEFORE the auction takes place. Whilst every care is taken in the accuracy of condition reports, Curated Auctions provide no other guarantee to the buyer other than in relation to forgeries. Many items are of an age or nature which precludes their being in perfect condition and some descriptions in the catalogue or given by way of condition report make reference to damage and/or restoration. We provide this information for guidance only and will not be held responsible for oversights concerning defects or restoration, nor does a reference to a particular defect imply the absence of any others. Prospective purchasers must accept these reports as genuine efforts by Curated Auctions or must take other steps to verify condition of lots.

• Clock Condition Notes: Any notes regarding the working or condition of clocks included in the cataloguing are for guidance only, they do not form any guarantee and are not intended as full condition reports.

All weights given are approximate.
