This lot contains ivory. The ivory trade is regulated. Piguet therefore recommends that buyers inform themselves of the applicable regimes and requirements before taking any action relating to the purchase or handling of an ivory object. Piguet will not apply on behalf of buyers for exemption certificates, CITES licences, registrations or other necessary documentation, including renewals or updates, and will not arrange import or export permits required for international shipments. The buyer's inability or delay in obtaining the necessary documents or in legally arranging the export or import of the consignment shall not justify cancellation of the sale or delay in payment.
CITES 2026
Lots containing material from protected or regulated species or materials (including ivory, tortoise shell, crocodile, alligator, coral, exotic skins or woods) may be subject to export, import, transport or customs restrictions under CITES or other applicable regulations. It is the buyer's responsibility to check the requirements in their country before bidding. Piguet Hôtel des Ventes will not be able to assist buyers in obtaining any required permits or documents, nor will it be able to arrange for the international shipment of such lots.
For certain lots containing regulated components (notably crocodile/alligator bracelets or ivory components, or other removable components subject to restrictions), pre-shipment withdrawal may be offered at the buyer's request. This withdrawal is final and irreversible, and the buyer waives any right of ownership, restitution or claim on the withdrawn item.
Should the buyer find it impossible to obtain the necessary authorisations or to legally export, import or transport a lot, this difficulty may not be invoked to justify either the cancellation of the sale or a delay in payment.
