On lots which are characterized by an R, the buyer shall pay a premium of 24 % on the hammer price up to € 400,000 and 20 % on the surpassing amount; onto this (hammer price and premium) the statutory VAT of 19 % will be added (regular scheme). Exports to third (i.e. non-EU) countries will be exempt from VAT, and so will be exports made by companies from other EU member states if they state their VAT identification number. For original works of art, whose authors are either still alive or died after 31.12.1945, a charge of 1.8 % on the hammer price will be levied for the droit de suite. The maximum charge is € 12,500. If a buyer exports an object to a third country personally, the VAT will be refunded, as soon as Lempertz receives the export and import papers.

These types of vases are referred to as "Tradescant" jars, named after the English botanist John Tradescant (ca. 1570-1638) who collected curiosities during his travels. An identical jar of this type can be found in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. Wares of this type were made in kilns in Guangdong and Fujian and exported to South-East Asia, Indonesia, to the Philippines and to the Pacific Area.
