--Previous Message-- : I think the estimates were fair. It is the : historical and royal provenance which : resulted in a price waaaay over the top. Lots 505 and 215 had no royal provenance, neither had 372, 379, 218, but these natural pearl necklaces sold for the tenfold (and more) of the estimate - and the first two for a (much) higher price than the pearls of the House of Orange - so one can hardly make the royal provenance responsible for the price increase.
