INFORMATION AND GUARANTEES All Lots are sold in the condition in which they are at the time of their Auction, with any defects and imperfections. The fact that the description does not include specific information on the condition of a Lot does not mean that the Lot is free of defects or imperfections. The information in the Catalogue is provided by Millon and the independent experts mentioned in the Catalogue, and may be amended by rectifications, notifications and/or declarations made before the Lots are auctioned, and recorded in the minutes of the Sale. The information appearing in the Catalogue, in particular the characteristics, dimensions, colours, condition of the Lot, incidents, accidents and/or restorations affecting the Lot, cannot be exhaustive, reflects the subjective assessment of the expert who provided it, and cannot therefore be sufficient to convince any interested party to bid without having personally inspected the Lot, once it has been the subject of a public exhibition. For all Lots whose low estimate in the Catalogue exceeds €2,000, a condition report on the state of conservation may be made available to any interested party on request. All the information contained in this report remains subject to the personal assessment of the interested party. In accordance with article L.321-17 paragraph 3 of the French Commercial Code, civil liability claims arising from voluntary sales of furniture by public auction are subject to a limitation period of five years from the date of the Auction. Lots marked with the symbol "°" contain elephant ivory or rhinoceros horn, the sale of which is free under the exemptions provided for in the Order of 4 May 2017 amending the Order of 16 August 2016 on the prohibition of trade in elephant ivory and rhinoceros horn on national territory, and have been the subject of an intra-Community certificate required for their sale within the European Union issued by the Direction régionale et interdépartementale de l'environnement, de l'aménagement et des transports (DRIEAT). Lots preceded by a letter "J" will be sold by the company [...], holder of a judicial commissioner's office, and will be the subject of a judicial report and will give rise to legal sales costs of 12% excluding VAT of the Auction Price (i.e. 14.40% including VAT) to be borne by the successful bidder. Lots preceded by the symbol "Ⓛ" indicate that the lot is stored in London. Buyers are invited to contact the department for any further information regarding the logistics, examination or removal of the lot. UK VAT of 20% applies to lots currently located in London. If exported from the UK, VAT and sales charges may be refunded upon presentation of valid customs documentation. A currency conversion facility may be available at the time of the Sale. The currency equivalents of bids placed in the room in euros are provided for information only.
