NOTICE TO BIDDERS
This notice is addressed by Bonhams to any person who may be
interested in a Lot, including Bidders and potential Bidders (including
any eventual Buyer of the Lot). For ease of reference we refer to
such persons as “Bidders” or “you”.
Our List of Definitions and Glossary is incorporated into this
Notice to Bidders. It is at Appendix 3 at the back of the Catalogue.
Where words and phrases are used in this notice which are in the List
of Definitions, they are printed in italics.
IMPORTANT: Additional information applicable to the Sale may be
set out in the Catalogue for the Sale, in an insert in the Catalogue
and/or in a notice displayed at the Sale venue and you should read
them as well. Announcements affecting the Sale may also be given
out orally before and during the Sale without prior written notice. You
should be alert to this possibility of changes and ask in advance of
bidding if there have been any.
1. OUR ROLE
In its role as auctioneer of Lots, Bonhams acts solely for and in
the interests of the Seller. Bonhams’ job is to sell the Lot at the
highest price obtainable at the Sale to a Bidder. Bonhams does
not act for Buyers or Bidders in this role and does not give advice
to Buyers or Bidders. When it or its staff make statements about a
Lot or, if Bonhams provides a Condition Report on a Lot it is doing
that on behalf of the Seller of the Lot. Bidders and Buyers who are
themselves not expert in the Lots are strongly advised to seek and
obtain independent advice on the Lots and their value before bidding
for them.
The Seller has authorised Bonhams to sell the Lot as its agent on its
behalf and, save where we expressly make it clear to the contrary,
Bonhams acts only as agent for the Seller. Any statement or
representation we make in respect of a Lot is made on the Seller’s
behalf and, unless Bonhams sells a Lot as principal, not on our
behalf and any Contract for Sale is between the Buyer and the Seller
and not with us. If Bonhams sells a Lot as principal this will either
be stated in the Catalogue or an announcement to that effect will be
made by the Auctioneer, or it will be stated in a notice at the Sale or
an insert in the Catalogue.
Bonhams does not owe or undertake or agree to any duty or
responsibility to you in contract or tort (whether direct, collateral,
express, implied or otherwise). If you successfully bid for a Lot and
buy it, at that stage Bonhams does enter into an agreement with
the Buyer. The terms of that contract are set out in our Buyer’s
Agreement save for those varied by announcement given out orally
before and/or during the Sale, which you will find at Appendix 2 at
the back of the Catalogue. This will govern Bonhams’ relationship
with the Buyer.
2. LOTS
Subject to the Contractual Description printed in bold letters in
the Entry about the Lot in the Catalogue (see paragraph 3 below),
Lots are sold to the Buyer on an “as is” basis, with all faults and
imperfections. No reference is made in the Catelogue to any defect,
damage or restoration of the Lot. Please see paragraph 15.
Illustrations and photographs contained in the Catalogue (other
than photographs forming part of the Contractual Description) or
elsewhere of any Lots are for identification purposes only. They may
not reveal the true condition of the Lot. A photograph or illustration
may not reflect an accurate reproduction of the colour(s) of the Lot.
Lots are available for inspection prior to the Sale and it is for you to
satisfy yourself as to each and every aspect of a Lot, including its
authorship, attribution, condition, provenance, history, background,
authenticity, style, period, age, suitability, quality, roadworthiness
(if relevant), origin, value and estimated selling price (including the
Hammer price). It is your responsibility to examine any Lot in which
you are interested.
It should be remembered that the actual condition of a Lot may
not be as good as that indicated by its outward appearance. In
particular, parts may have been replaced or renewed and Lots may
not be authentic or of satisfactory quality; the inside of a Lot may
not be visible and may not be original or may be damaged, as for
example where it is covered by upholstery or material. Given the age
of many Lots they may have been damaged and/or repaired and you
should not assume that a Lot is in good condition.
Electronic or mechanical parts may not operate or may not comply
with current statutory requirements. You should not assume that
electrical items designed to operate on mains electricity will be
suitable for connection to the mains electricity supply and you should
obtain a report from a qualified electrician on their status before doing
so. Such items which are unsuitable for connection are sold as items
of interest for display purposes only.
If you yourself do not have expertise regarding a Lot, you should
consult someone who does to advise you. We can assist in
arranging facilities for you to carry out or have carried out more
detailed inspections and tests. Please ask our staff for details.
Any person who damages a Lot will be held liable for the loss
caused.
3. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS AND ESTIMATES
Contractual Description of a Lot
The Catalogue contains an Entry about each Lot. Each Lot is sold
by its respective Seller to the Buyer of the Lot as corresponding only
with that part of the Entry which is printed in bold letters and (except
for the colour, which may be inaccurately reproduced) with any
photograph of the Lot in the Catalogue. The remainder of the Entry,
which is not printed in bold letters, represents Bonhams’ opinion
(given on behalf of the Seller) about the Lot only and is not part of the
Contractual Description in accordance with which the Lot is sold by
the Seller.
Estimates
In most cases, an Estimate is printed beside the Entry. Estimates
are only an expression of Bonhams’ opinion made on behalf of the
Seller of the range where Bonhams thinks the Hammer Price for the
Lot is likely to fall; it is not an estimate of value. It does not take into
account any Tax or Buyer’s Premium payable. Lots can in fact sell for
Hammer Prices below and above the Estimate. Any Estimate should
not be relied on as an indication of the actual selling price or value of
a Lot.
Estimates are in the currency of the Sale.
Condition reports
In respect of most Lots, you may ask for a Condition Report on its
physical condition from Bonhams. If you do so, this will be provided
by Bonhams on behalf of the Seller free of charge. Bonhams is not
entering into a contract with you in respect of the Condition Report
and accordingly does not assume responsibility to you in respect
of it. Nor does the Seller owe or agree to owe you as a Bidder any
obligation or duty in respect of this free report about a Lot which
is available for your own inspection or for inspection by an expert
instructed by you. However, any written description of the physical
condition of the Lot contained in a Condition Report will form part of
the Contractual Description of the Lot under which it is sold to any
Buyer.
The Seller’s responsibility to you
The Seller does not make or agree to make any representation of
fact or contractual promise, guarantee or warranty and undertakes
no obligation or duty, whether in contract or in tort (other than to
the eventual Buyer as set out above), in respect of the accuracy or
completeness of any statement or representation made by him or
on his behalf which is in any way descriptive of any Lot or as to the
anticipated or likely selling price of any Lot. Other than as set out
above, no statement or representation in any way descriptive of a Lot
or any Estimate is incorporated into any Contract for Sale between a
Seller and a Buyer.
Bonhams’ responsibility to you
You have the opportunity of examining the Lot if you want to and the
Contract for Sale for a Lot is with the Seller and not with Bonhams;
Bonhams acts as the Seller’s agent only (unless Bonhams sells the
Lot as principal).
Bonhams undertakes no obligation to you to examine, investigate or
carry out any tests, either in sufficient depth or at all, on each Lot to
establish the accuracy or otherwise of any descriptions or opinions
given by Bonhams, or by any person on Bonhams’ behalf, whether in
the Catalogue or elsewhere.
You should not suppose that such examinations, investigations or
tests have occurred.
Bonhams does not make or agree to make any representation of
fact, and undertakes no obligation or duty (whether in contract or
tort) in respect of the accuracy or completeness of any statement or
representation made by Bonhams or on Bonhams’ behalf which is in
any way descriptive of any Lot or as to the anticipated or likely selling
price of any Lot.
No statement or representation by Bonhams or on its behalf in any
way descriptive of any Lot or any Estimate is incorporated into our
Buyer’s Agreement.
Alterations
Descriptions and Estimates may be amended at Bonhams’ discretion
from time to time by notice given orally or in writing before or during a
Sale.
THE LOT IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AND YOU MUST FORM
YOUR OWN OPINION IN RELATION TO IT. YOU ARE STRONGLY
ADVISED TO EXAMINE ANY LOT OR HAVE IT EXAMINED ON YOUR
BEHALF BEFORE THE SALE.
4. CONDUCT OF THE SALE
Our Sales are public auctions which persons may attend and you
should take the opportunity to do so.
We do reserve the right at our sole discretion to refuse admission
to our premises or to any Sale without stating a reason. We have
complete discretion as to whether the Sale proceeds, whether
any Lot is included in the Sale, the manner in which the Sale is
conducted and we may offer Lots for sale in any order we choose
notwithstanding the numbers given to Lots in the Catalogue. You
should therefore check the date and starting time of the Sale,
whether there have been any withdrawals or late entries. Remember
that withdrawals and late entries may affect the time at which a Lot
you are interested in is put up for Sale.
We have complete discretion to refuse any bid, to nominate any
bidding increment we consider appropriate, to divide any Lot, to
combine two or more Lots, to withdraw any Lot from a Sale and,
before the Sale has been closed, to put up any Lot for auction again.
Auction speeds can exceed 100 Lots to the hour and bidding
increments are generally about 10%. However these do vary from
Sale to Sale and from Auctioneer to Auctioneer. Please check with
the department organising the Sale for advice on this.
Where a Reserve has been applied to a Lot, the Auctioneer may, in
his absolute discretion, place bids (up to an amount not equalling
or exceeding such Reserve) on behalf of the Seller. We are not
responsible to you in respect of the presence or absence of any
Reserve in respect of any Lot.
If there is a Reserve it will normally be no higher than the lower figure
for any Estimate in the Catalogue, assuming that the currency of
the Reserve has not fluctuated adversely against the currency of the
Estimate.
The Buyer will be the Bidder who makes the highest bid acceptable
to the Auctioneer for any Lot (subject to any applicable Reserve) to
whom the Lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer at the striking of
the Auctioneer’s hammer. Any dispute as to the highest acceptable
bid will be settled by the Auctioneer in his absolute discretion.
All bids tendered will relate to the actual Lot number announced by
the Auctioneer.
An electronic currency converter may be used at the Sale. This
equipment is provided as a general guide as to the equivalent
amount in certain currencies of a given bid. We do not accept
any responsibility for any errors which may occur in the use of the
currency converter.
We hereby give you notice that we may use video cameras to record
the Sale and may record telephone calls for reasons of security and
to assist in solving any disputes which may arise in relation to bids
made at the Sale.
At some Sales, for example, jewellery Sales, we may use screens on
which images of the Lots will be projected. This service is provided
to assist viewing at the Sale. The image on the screen should be
treated as an indication only of the current Lot. It should be noted
that all bids tendered will relate to the actual Lot number announced
by the Auctioneer. We do not accept any responsibility for any errors
which may occur in the use of the screen.
5. BIDDING
We do not accept bids from any person who has not completed
and delivered to us one of our Bidding Forms, either our Bidder
Registration Form, Absentee and Telephone Bidding Form before
the Sale. You may be asked for proof of identity, residence, financial
details and references, which, if asked for, you must supply if your
bids are to be accepted by us. Please bring your passport, Hong
Kong Identity Card (or similar photo proof of identity) and a debit or
credit card. We may request a deposit from you before allowing you
to bid.
We may refuse entry to a Sale to any person even if that person has
completed a Bidding Form.
Bidding in person
You should come to our Bidder registration desk at the Sale venue
and fill out a Bidder Registration Form on (or, if possible, before) the
day of the Sale. The bidding number system is sometimes referred
to as “paddle bidding”. You will be issued with a large card (a
“paddle”) with a printed number on it. This will be attributed to you
for the purposes of the Sale. Should you be a successful Bidder
you will need to ensure that your number can be clearly seen by
the Auctioneer and that it is your number which is identified as the
Buyer’s. You should not let anyone else use your paddle as all Lots
will be invoiced to the name and address given on your Bidder
Registration Form. Once an invoice is issued it will not be changed.
If there is any doubt as to the Hammer Price of, or whether you are
the successful Bidder of, a particular Lot, you must draw this to the
attention of the Auctioneer before the next Lot is offered for Sale. The
decision of the Auctioneer is considered final and conclusive.
At the end of the Sale, or when you have finished bidding please
return your paddle to the Bidder registration desk.
Bidding by telephone
If you wish to bid at the Sale by telephone, please complete an
Absentee and Telephone Bidding Form, which is available from our
offices or in the Catalogue. Please then return it to the office which
is responsible for the Sale at least 24 hours in advance of the Sale. It
is your responsibility to check with our Bids Office that your bid has
been received. Telephone calls may be recorded. The telephone
bidding facility is a discretionary service and may not be available in
relation to all Lots. We will not be responsible for bidding on your
behalf if you are unavailable at the time of the Sale or if the telephone
connection is interrupted during bidding. Please contact us for
further details.
Bidding by post or fax
Absentee and Telephone Bidding Forms can be found in the back
of this Catalogue and should be completed and sent to the office
responsible for the Sale. It is in your interests to return your form as
soon as possible, as if two or more Bidders submit identical bids for
a Lot, the first bid received takes preference. In any event, all bids
should be received at least 24 hours before the start of the Sale.
Please check your Absentee and Telephone Bidding Form carefully
before returning it to us, fully completed and signed by you. It is your
responsibility to check with our Bids Office that your bid has been
received. This additional service is complimentary and is confidential.
Such bids are made at your own risk and we cannot accept liability
for our failure to receive and/or place any such bids. All bids made
on your behalf will be made at the lowest level possible subject to
Reserves and other bids made for the Lot. Where appropriate your
bids will be rounded down to the nearest amount consistent with the
Auctioneer’s bidding increments. New Bidders must also provide
proof of identity when submitting bids. Failure to do this may result in
your bid not being placed.
Bidding via the internet
Please visit our Website at http://www.bonhams.com for details of
how to bid via the internet.
Bidding through an agent
Bids will be accepted as placed on behalf of the person named as
the principal on the Bidding Form although we may refuse to accept
bids from an agent on behalf of a principal and may require written
confirmation from the principal confirming the agent’s authority to bid.
Nevertheless, as the Bidding Form explains, any person placing a bid
as agent on behalf of another (whether or not he has disclosed that
fact or the identity of his principal) will be jointly and severally liable
with the principal to the Seller and to Bonhams under any contract
resulting from the acceptance of a bid.
Subject to the above, please let us know if you are acting on behalf
of another person when bidding for Lots at the Sale. Equally, please
let us know if you intend to nominate another person to bid on your
behalf at the Sale unless this is to be carried out by us pursuant to an
Absentee and Telephone Bidding Form that you have completed. If we
do not approve the agency arrangements in writing before the Sale, we
are entitled to assume that the person bidding at the Sale is bidding
on his own behalf. Accordingly, the person bidding at the Sale will
be the Buyer and will be liable to pay the Hammer Price and Buyer’s
Premium and associated charges. If we approve the identity of your

HK/NTB/MAIN/3.2022
client in advance, we will be in a position to address the invoice to your
principal rather than you. We will require proof of the agent’s client’s
identity and residence in advance of any bids made by the agent on
his behalf. Please refer to our Conditions of Business and contact our
Customer Services Department for further details.
6. CONTRACTS BETWEEN THE BUYER AND SELLER AND
THE BUYER AND BONHAMS
On the Lot being knocked down to the Buyer, a Contract for Sale
of the Lot will be entered into between the Seller and the Buyer on
the terms of the Contract for Sale set out in Appendix 1 at the back
of the Catalogue save for those varied by announcement given out
orally before and/or during the Sale. You will be liable to pay the
Purchase Price, which is the Hammer Price plus any Tax.
At the same time, a separate contract is also entered into between
us as auctioneers and the Buyer. This is our Buyer’s Agreement,
the terms of which are set out in Appendix 2 at the end of the
Catalogue. Please read the terms of the Contract for Sale and our
Buyer’s Agreement contained in the Catalogue in case you are the
successful Bidder. We may change the terms of either or both of these
agreements in advance of their being entered into, by setting out different
terms in the Catalogue and/or by placing an insert in the Catalogue and/
or by notices at the Sale venue and/or by oral announcements before and
during the Sale. You should be alert to this possibility of changes and ask
if there have been any.
7. BUYER’S PREMIUM AND OTHER CHARGES PAYABLE BY
THE BUYER
Under the Buyer’s Agreement, a premium (the Buyer’s
Premium) is payable to us by the Buyer in accordance with the terms
of the Buyer’s Agreement and at rates set out below, calculated by
reference to the Hammer Price and payable in addition to it. Storage
charges and Expenses are also payable by the Buyer as set out in the
Buyer’s Agreement.
For this Sale the following rates of Buyer’s Premium will be payable
by Buyers on each Lot purchased:
27.5% of the Hammer Price on the first HK$200,000; plus
26% of the Hammer Price from HK$200,001
and up to HK$7,500,000; plus
20% of the Hammer Price from HK$7,500,001
and up to HK$50,000,000; plus
14.5% of the Hammer Price above HK$50,000,000
8. TAX
The Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium payable by the Buyer
is exclusive of any goods or service tax or other Tax (whether
imposed by Hong Kong or otherwise). If any such Tax was to be paid
under Hong Kong laws or any other laws, the Buyer shall be solely
responsible to pay such Tax and at the rate and time as required by
the relevant law, or if such Tax is to be paid by us, we may add such
Tax to the Purchase Price payable by the Buyer.
9. PAYMENT
It is of critical importance that you ensure that you have
readily available funds to pay the Purchase Price and the
Buyer’s Premium (plus Tax and any other charges and
Expenses to us) in full before making a bid for the Lot. If you
are a successful Bidder, payment will be due to be made to
us by 4.30 pm on the second working day after the Sale so
that all sums are cleared by the seventh working day after
the Sale. Payment will have to be by one of the following
methods (all cheques should be made payable to Bonhams
(Hong Kong) Limited). Bonhams reserves the right to vary
the terms of payment at any time. Unless agreed by us
advance payments made by anyone other than the registered
buyer will not be accepted.
Bonhams’ preferred payment method is by

Customer Services Department.
10. COLLECTION AND STORAGE
The Buyer of a Lot will not be allowed to collect it until payment in full
and in cleared funds has been made (unless we have made a special
arrangement with the Buyer). Details relating to the collection of a
Lot, the storage of a Lot and our Storage Contractor after the Sale
are set out in the Buyer’s Agreement as set out in Appendix 2 of the
Catalogue.
11. SHIPPING
Please refer enquiries on this to our customer services department
dealing with the Sale.
12. EXPORT/TRADE RESTRICTIONS
It is your sole responsibility to comply with all Hong Kong export and
overseas import regulations relating to your purchases and also to
obtain any relevant export and/or import licence(s).
The need for export and import licences varies from country to
country and you should acquaint yourself with all relevant local
requirements and provisions.
The refusal of any import or export licence(s) or any delay in obtaining
such licence(s) shall not permit the rescission of any Sale nor allow any
delay in making full payment for the Lot.
13. CITES REGULATIONS
Buyers are advised to check the regulations applicable to Hong Kong
exportation and overseas importation when exporting any goods
from Hong Kong to the place of importation. Buyers should also
be aware that the export from Hong Kong of any items made of or
incorporating ivory, whalebone, tortoiseshell, rhinoceros horn, coral
and other restricted materials is prohibited unless a CITES export
licence is obtained from the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation
Department of Hong Kong. A period of 8 weeks may be required for
the purposes of obtaining such export licence.
Please note that Lots marked in the catalogue with a Y next to the
lot number contain one or more of the aforesaid restricted materials.
However, the omission of such letter Y does not automatically mean
that the Lot is not subject to CITES regulations. Buyers are advised
to obtain information from the relevant regulatory authorities regarding
export and import restrictions, requirements and costs prior to
bidding.
14. THE SELLERS AND/OR BONHAMS’ LIABILITY
Other than any liability of the Seller to the Buyer of a Lot under the
Contract for Sale, neither we nor the Seller are liable (whether in
negligence or otherwise) for any error or misdescription or omission
in any Description of a Lot or any Estimate in respect of it, whether
contained in the Catalogue or otherwise, whether given orally or
in writing and whether given before or during the Sale. Neither we
nor the Seller will be liable for any loss of Business, profits, revenue
or income, or for loss of reputation, or for disruption to Business
or wasted time on the part of management or staff, or for indirect
losses or consequential damages of any kind, irrespective in any
case of the nature, volume or source of the loss or damage alleged
to be suffered, and irrespective of whether the said loss or damage is
caused by or claimed in respect of any negligence, other tort, breach
of contract (if any) or statutory duty, restitutionary claim or otherwise.
In any circumstances where we and/or the Seller are liable in relation
to any Lot or any Description or Estimate made of any Lot, or the
conduct of any Sale in relation to any Lot, whether in damages,
for an indemnity or contribution, or for a restitutionary remedy or
otherwise, our and/or the Seller’s liability (combined, if both we and
the Seller are liable) will be limited to payment of a sum which will not
exceed by way of maximum the amount of the Purchase Price of the
Lot irrespective in any case of the nature, volume or source of any
loss or damage alleged to be suffered or sum claimed as due, and
irrespective of whether the liability arises from any negligence, other
tort, breach of contract (if any) or statutory duty or otherwise.
Nothing set out above will be construed as excluding or
restricting (whether directly or indirectly) our liability or excluding or
restricting any person’s rights or remedies in respect of (i) fraud,
or (ii) death or personal injury caused by our negligence (or by the
negligence of any person under our control or for whom we are legally
responsible), or (iii) acts or omissions for which we are liable under the
Occupiers Liability Ordinance (Chapter 314 of the Laws of Hong Kong),
or (iv) any other liability to the extent the same may not be excluded or
restricted as a matter of law or (v) our undertakings under paragraph 9
of the Buyer’s Agreement. The same applies in respect of the Seller,
as if references to us in this paragraph were substituted with references
to the Seller.
15. DAMAGE AND RESTORATION
Bidders should note that there is no reference to any defect, damage
or restoration in this Catalogue. A detailed Condition Report can
be provided by Bonhams up to 24 hours before the Sale. When
providing Condition Reports, we do not guarantee that there are
no other defects present which have not been mentioned. Bidders
should satisfy themselves by inspection, as to the condition of each
Lot. Please see the Contract for Sale printed in this Catalogue.
16. BOOKS
As stated above, all Lots are sold on an “as is” basis, subject to all
faults, imperfections and errors of Description save as set out below.
However, you will be entitled to reject a Book in the circumstances set
out in paragraph 11 of the Buyers Agreement. Please note that Lots
comprising printed Books, unframed maps and bound manuscripts
are not liable to VAT on the Buyer’s Premium.
17. CLOCKS AND WATCHES
All Lots are sold “as is”, and the absence of any reference to the
condition of a clock or watch does not imply that the Lot is in good
condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks
and watches have been repaired in the course of their normal lifetime
and may now incorporate parts not original to them. Furthermore,
Bonhams makes no representation or warranty that any clock or
watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine
and complex mechanisms, Bidders should be aware that a general
service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer
is solely responsible, may be necessary. Bidders should be aware
that the importation of watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and
Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches may
not be shipped to the USA and can only be imported personally.
18. JEWELLERY
Gemstones
Historically many gemstones have been subjected to a variety of
treatments to enhance their appearance. Sapphires and rubies are
routinely heat treated to improve their colour and clarity, similarly
emeralds are frequently treated with oils or resin for the same
purpose. Other treatments such as staining, irradiation or coating
may have been used on other gemstones. These treatments may
be permanent, whilst others may need special care or re-treatment
over the years to retain their appearance. Bidders should be aware
that Estimates assume that gemstones may have been subjected to
such treatments. A number of laboratories issue certificates that give
more detailed Descriptions of gemstones. However there may not be
consensus between different laboratories on the degrees, or types
of treatment for any particular gemstone. In the event that Bonhams
has been given or has obtained certificates for any Lot in the Sale
these certificates will be disclosed in the Catalogue. Although, as a
matter of policy, Bonhams endeavours to provide certificates from
recognised laboratories for certain gemstones, it is not feasible
to obtain certificates for each Lot. In the event that no certificate
is published in the Catalogue, Bidders should assume that the
gemstones may have been treated. Neither Bonhams nor the Seller
accepts any liability for contradictions or differing certificates obtained
by Buyers on any Lots subsequent to the Sale.
Estimated Weights
If a stone(s) weight appears within the body of the Description in
capital letters, the stone(s) has been unmounted and weighed by
Bonhams. If the weight of the stone(s) is stated to be approximate
and does not appear in capital letters, the stone(s) has been
assessed by us within its/their settings, and the stated weight is a
statement of our opinion only. This information is given as a guide
and Bidders should satisfy themselves with regard to this information
as to its accuracy.
Signatures
1. A diamond brooch, by Kutchinsky
When the maker’s name appears in the title, in Bonhams’ opinion
the piece is by that maker.
2. A diamond brooch, signed Kutchinsky
Has a signature that, in Bonhams’ opinion, is authentic but may
contain gemstones that are not original, or the piece may have been
altered.
3. A diamond brooch, mounted by Kutchinsky
Has been created by the jeweller, in Bonhams’ opinion, but using
stones or designs supplied by the client.
19. PICTURES
Explanation of Catalogue Terms
The following terms used in the Catalogue have the following
meanings but are subject to the general provisions relating to
Descriptions contained in the Contract for Sale:
? “Jacopo Bassano”: in our opinion a work by the artist. When the
artist’s forename(s) is not known, a series of asterisks, followed
by the surname of the artist, whether preceded by an initial or
not, indicates that in our opinion the work is by the artist named;
? “Attributed to Jacopo Bassano”: in our opinion probably a work
by the artist but less certainty as to authorship is expressed than
in the preceding category;
? “Studio/Workshop of Jacopo Bassano”: in our opinion a work by
an unknown hand in a studio of the artist which may or may not
have been executed under the artist’s direction;

20. PORCELAIN AND GLASS
Damage and Restoration
For your guidance, in our Catalogues we detail, as far as practicable,
recorded all significant defects, cracks and restoration. Such
practicable Descriptions of damage cannot be definitive, and in
providing Condition Reports, we cannot Guarantee that there are
no other defects present which have not been mentioned. Bidders
should satisfy themselves by inspection, as to the condition of each
Lot. Please see the Contract for Sale printed in this Catalogue.
Because of the difficulty in determining whether an item of glass
has been repolished, in our Catalogues reference is only made to
visible chips and cracks. No mention is made of repolishing, severe
or otherwise.
21. WINE
Lots which are lying under Bond and those liable to VAT may not be
available for immediate collection.
Examining the wines
It is occasionally possible to provide a pre-Sale tasting for larger
parcels (as defined below). This is generally limited to more recent
and everyday drinking wines. Please contact the department for
details.
It is not our policy to inspect every unopened case. In the case of
wines older than 20 years the boxes will usually have been opened
and levels and appearance noted in the Catalogue where necessary.
You should make proper allowance for variations in ullage levels and
conditions of corks, capsules and labels.
Corks and Ullages
Ullage refers to the space between the base of the cork and the
wine. Ullage levels for Bordeaux shaped bottles are only normally
noted when below the neck and for Burgundy, Alsace, German
and Cognac shaped bottles when greater than 4 centimetres (cm).
Acceptable ullage levels increase with age; generally acceptable
levels are as follows:
Under 15 years old – into neck or less than 4cm
15 to 30 years old – top shoulder (ts) or up to 5cm
Over 30 years old – high shoulder (hs) or up to 6cm
It should be noted that ullages may change between publication
of the Catalogue and the Sale and that corks may fail as a result
of transporting the wine. We will only accept responsibility for
Descriptions of condition at the time of publication of the Catalogue
and cannot accept responsibility for any loss resulting from failure of
corks either before or after this point.
Options to buy parcels
A parcel is a number of Lots of identical size of the same wine,
bottle size and Description. The Buyer of any of these Lots has the
option to accept some or all of the remaining Lots in the parcel at the
same price, although such options will be at the Auctioneer’s sole
discretion. Absentee Bidders are, therefore, advised to bid on the
first Lot in a parcel.

and/or by notices at the Sale venue and/or by oral announcements
before and during the Sale at the Sale venue. You should be alert to
this possibility of changes and ask in advance of bidding if there have
been any.
UNDER THIS CONTRACT, THE SELLER’S LIABILITY IN RESPECT OF
THE QUALITY OF THE LOT, ITS FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE AND
ITS CONFORMITY WITH ANY DESCRITION IS LIMITED. YOU ARE
STRONGLY ADVISED TO EXAMINE THE LOT FOR YOURSELF AND/
OR OBTAIN AN INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION OF IT BEFORE YOU
BUY IT.
1 THE CONTRACT
1.1 These terms govern the Contract for Sale of the Lot by the
Seller to the Buyer.
1.2 The Definitions and Glossary contained in Appendix 3 in the
Catalogue are incorporated into this Contract for Sale and a
separate copy can also be provided by Bonhams on request.
Where words and phrases are used which are in the List of
Definitions in it, they are printed in italics.
1.3 Seller sells the Lot as the principal to the Contract for Sale,
such contract being made between the Seller and you
through Bonhams which acts in the sole capacity as the
Seller’s agent and not as an additional principal. However, if
the Catalogue states that Bonhams sells the Lot as principal,
or such a statement is made by an announcement by the
Auctioneer, or by a notice at the Sale, or an insert in the
Catalogue, then Bonhams is the Seller for the purposes of
this agreement.
1.4 The contract is made on the striking of the Auctioneer’s
hammer in respect of the Lot when it is knocked down to you.
2 SELLER’S UNDERTAKINGS
2.1 The Seller undertakes to you that:
2.1.1 The Seller is the owner of the Lot or is duly authorised to sell
the Lot by the owner;

Seller is aware, all third parties have complied with such
requirements in the past;
2.1.5 subject to any alterations expressly identified as such made by
announcement or notice at the Sale venue or by the Notice to
Bidders or by an insert in the Catalogue, the Lot corresponds
with the Contractual Description of the Lot, being that part

letters and (except for colour) with any photograph of the Lot
in the Catalogue and the contents of any Condition Report
which has been provided to the Buyer.
3 DESCRIPTIONS OF THE LOT
3.1 Paragraph 2.1.5 sets out what is the Contractual Description
of the Lot. In particular, the Lot is not sold as corresponding
with that part of the Entry in the Catalogue which is not
printed in bold letters, which merely sets out (on the Seller’s
behalf) Bonhams’ opinion about the Lot and which is not part
of the Contractual Description upon which the Lot is sold. Any
statement or representation other than that part of the Entry
referred to in paragraph 2.1.5 (together with any express
alteration to it as referred to in paragraph 2.1.5), including any
Description or Estimate, whether made orally or in writing,
including in the Catalogue or on Bonhams’ Website, or by
conduct, or otherwise, and whether by or on behalf of the
Seller or Bonhams and whether made prior to or during the
Sale, is not part of the Contractual Description upon which
the Lot is sold.

not make or give and does not agree to make or give any
contractual promise, undertaking, obligation, guarantee,
warranty, or representation of fact, or undertake any duty of

Description or Estimate is incorporated into this Contract for
Sale.

5.1 Risk in the Lot passes to you when it is knocked down to you

indemnify the Seller and keep the Seller fully indemnified

and losses arising in respect of any injury, loss and damage
caused to the Lot after the fall of the Auctioneer’s hammer
until you obtain full title to it.

of our taking steps under this paragraph 7 on a full indemnity
basis together with interest thereon (after as well as before
judgement or order) at the rate specified in paragraph 7.1.5
from the date upon which we become liable to pay the same

towards the Purchase Price of each Lot) and secondly to the

8 CLAIMS BY OTHER PERSONS IN RESPECT OF THE
LOT
8.1 Whenever it becomes apparent to us that the Lot is the
subject of a claim by someone other than you and other than
the Seller (or that such a claim can reasonably be expected
to be made), we may, at our absolute discretion, deal with
the Lot in any manner which appears to us to recognise
the legitimate interests of ourselves and the other parties
involved and lawfully to protect our position and our legitimate
interests. Without prejudice to the generality of the discretion
and by way of example, we may:
8.1.1 retain the Lot to investigate any question raised or reasonably
expected by us to be raised in relation to the Lot; and/or
8.1.2 deliver the Lot to a person other than you; and/or
8.1.3 commence interpleader proceedings or seek any other order
of any court, mediator, arbitrator or government body; and/or
8.1.4 require an indemnity and/or security from you in return for
pursuing a course of action agreed to by you.
8.2 The discretion referred to in paragraph 8.1:
8.2.1 may be exercised at any time during which we have actual or
constructive possession of the Lot, or at any time after such
possession, where the cessation of such possession has occurred
by reason of any decision, order or ruling of any court, mediator,
arbitrator or government body; and
8.2.2 will not be exercised unless we believe that there exists a
serious prospect of a good arguable case in favour of the
claim.

you have become aware that the Lot is or may be a Forgery,

reflected the then accepted general opinion of scholars and
experts or fairly indicated that there was a conflict of such

acknowledged to be a leading expert in the relevant field; or
9.3.2 it can be established that the Lot is a Forgery only by means
of a process not generally accepted for use until after the
date on which the Catalogue was published or by means of
a process which it was unreasonable in all the circumstances
for us to have employed.
9.4 You authorise us to carry out such processes and tests on
the Lot as we in our absolute discretion consider necessary
to satisfy ourselves that the Lot is or is not a Forgery.
9.5 If we are satisfied that a Lot is a Forgery we will (as principal)
purchase the Lot from you and you will transfer the title to
the Lot in question to us, with full title guarantee, free from
any liens, charges, encumbrances and adverse claims, in

of Hong Kong) and we will pay to you an amount equal to

Expenses paid by you in respect of the Lot.

assignment by, you.

rights and benefits under this paragraph will cease.

於圖錄後的附錄三內，釋義內所收錄的詞語及用詞
在本文內以斜體刊載。
重要事項﹕有關拍賣會的額外資料可載於拍賣會的
圖錄、圖錄的插頁及／或於拍賣會場地展示的通
告，閣下亦須參閱該等資料。本公司亦可於拍賣會
前或於拍賣會上以口頭形式發出會影響拍賣會的公
佈，而毋須事先給予書面通知。閣下須注意此等可
能變動的情況，並於競投前查詢是否有任何變動。
1. 本公司的角色
作為拍賣品的拍賣人，邦瀚斯 純粹代賣家及為賣家
的權益行事。邦瀚斯 的職責為於拍賣會以可從競投
人取得的最高價格出售拍賣品。邦瀚斯 並非以這角
色為買家或競投人行事，亦不向買家或競投人提供
意見。邦瀚斯 或其職員就拍賣品作出陳述或若邦瀚
斯提供有關拍賣品的狀況報告時，邦瀚斯 或其職員
乃代表賣家行事。本公司強烈建議本身並非有關拍
賣品之專家的買家或競投人須於競投前尋求並取得
有關拍賣品及其價值的獨立意見。
賣家已授權邦瀚斯 作為其代理及其代表出售拍賣
品，除非本公司明確表示並非如此，邦瀚斯 僅作為
賣家的代理行事。除非邦瀚斯 作為主事人出售拍賣
品，本公司就拍賣品所作的任何陳述或申述均為代
表賣家作出而非代表本公司作出，而任何銷售合約
乃買家與賣家訂立而非與本公司訂立。倘若邦瀚斯
作為主事人出售拍賣品，本公司會就此情況於圖錄
內說明或由拍賣人作出公佈，或於拍賣會的通告或
圖錄的插頁說明。
邦瀚斯 毋須對閣下承擔亦概無向閣下承諾或同意
任何合約或侵權法下的義務或責任（不論直接、間
接、明示、暗示或以其他方式）。在閣下成功投得
並購買拍賣品時，邦瀚斯 會在其時與買家訂立協
議，該合約的條款載於買家協議，除非該等條款已
於拍賣會前及／或於拍賣會上以口頭公佈形式被修
訂，閣下可於圖錄後的附錄二查閱該協議。邦瀚斯
與買家的關係受該協議所規管。
2. 拍賣品
在圖錄內有關拍賣品的資料內以粗體刊載的合約說
明所規限下（見下文第3段），拍賣品乃以其「現
況」售予買家，附有各種瑕疵及缺點。在圖錄內並
無就拍賣品的任何瑕疵、損壞或修復提供指引。請
參考第15段。
圖錄內或其他地方有關任何拍賣品的插圖及照片
（屬合約說明一部份的照片除外）僅供識別之用，
可能並不反映拍賣品的真實狀況，照片或插圖亦可
能未有準確重現拍賣品的顏色。
拍賣品於拍賣會前可供查看，閣下須自行了解拍賣
品的每個和各個方面，包括作者、屬性、狀況、出
處、歷史、背景、真實性、風格、時期、年代、適
合性、品質、駕駛性能（如適用）、來源地、價值
及估計售價（包括成交價）。對閣下有興趣的任何
拍賣品進行審查乃閣下的責任。
敬須注意拍賣品的實際狀況可能不及其外觀所顯示
的狀況。尤其是可能有部件已置換或更新，拍賣品
亦可能並非真品或具有滿意品質；拍賣品的內部可
能無法查看，而其可能並非原物或有損壞，例如為
襯裡或物料所覆蓋。鑑於很多拍賣品出品年代久
遠，故可能有損毀及／或經過修理，閣下不應假設
拍賣品狀況良好。
電子或機械部件或會不能操作或並不符合現時的法
定要求。閣下不應假設其設計為使用主電源的電器
物品乃適合接上主電源，閣下應在得到合格電工報
告其適合使用主電源後，方可將其接上主電源。不
適合接上電源的物品乃僅作為擺設物品出售。
若閣下對拍賣品並無專業知識，則應諮詢有該等知
識人士的意見。本公司可協助閣下安排進行（或已
進行）更詳細的查驗。詳情請向本公司職員查詢。
任何人士損毀拍賣品須承擔所導致的損失。
3. 拍賣品的說明及成交價估計
拍賣品的合約說明
圖錄內載有每項拍賣品的資料。賣家僅按資料內以
粗體刊載的部份以及（除顏色外，該等顏色可能未
有準確重現拍賣品的顏色）圖錄內所載的任何照
片，向買家相應出售每項拍賣品。資料內其餘並非
以粗體刊載的部份，僅為邦瀚斯代表賣家就拍賣品
提供的意見，並不構成合約說明一部份，而賣家乃
根據合約說明出售拍賣品。
成交價估計
在大部份情況下，成交價估計會刊載於資料旁邊。
成交價估計僅為邦瀚斯代表賣家表達的意見，而邦
瀚斯認為拍賣品相當可能會以該價成交；成交價估
計並非對價值的估計。成交價估計並無計及任何應
付稅項或買家費用。拍賣品實際成交價可能低於或
高於成交價估計。閣下不應依賴任何成交價估計為
拍賣品實際售價或價值的指標。
成交價估計採用拍賣會所用的貨幣單位。
狀況報告
就大部份拍賣品而言，閣下可要求邦瀚斯提供拍賣
品的狀況報告。若閣下提出該要求，則邦瀚斯會免
費代賣家提供該報告。邦瀚斯 並無就該狀況報告與
閣下訂立合約，因此，邦瀚斯並不就該報告向閣下
承擔責任。對此份供閣下本身或閣下所指示專家查
閱的免費報告，賣家向閣下作為競投人亦不承擔或
並無同意承擔任何義務或責任。然而，狀況報告內
有關拍賣品的書面說明構成拍賣品的合約說明一部
份，賣家乃根據合約說明向買家出售拍賣品。
賣家對閣下的責任
就賣家或其代表所作出以任何形式說明拍賣品或有
關拍賣品預測售價或可能售價的任何陳述或申述的
準確性或完備性，賣家並無或並無同意作出任何事
實陳述或合約承諾、擔保或保證，亦不就其承擔不
論合約或侵權法上的任何義務或責任（除對上述對
最終買家的責任除外）。除以上所述外，以任何形
式說明拍賣品或任何成交價估計的陳述或申述概不
納入賣家與買家訂立的任何銷售合約內。
邦瀚斯 對閣下的責任
如閣下擬查看拍賣品，閣下會獲得有關安排。有關
拍賣品的銷售合約乃與賣家訂立而非邦瀚斯；邦瀚
斯 僅作為賣家的代理行事（邦瀚斯作為主事人出售
拍賣品除外）。
邦瀚斯 概不向閣下承擔任何對於每件拍賣品進行查
驗、調查或任何測試（足夠深入或完全不進行），
以確定邦瀚斯或代表邦瀚斯的任何人士在圖錄內或
其他地方作出的任何說明或意見的準確性或其他
的責任。
閣下不應假定已經進行該等查驗、調查或測試。
就邦瀚斯 或其代表所作出以任何形式說明拍賣品或
有關拍賣品預測售價或可能售價的任何陳述或申述
的準確性或完備性，邦瀚斯 並無或並無同意作出任
何事實陳述，亦不就其承擔任何（不論合約或侵權
法上的）義務或責任。
邦瀚斯 或其代表以任何形式說明拍賣品或任何成交
價估計的陳述或申述概不納入買家協議內。
修改邦瀚斯可於拍賣會前或於拍賣會上以口頭或書
面形式給予通知下，不時按邦瀚斯的酌情權決定修
改說明及成交價估計。
拍賣品可供查看，而閣下必須自行對拍賣品作出判
斷。本公司強烈建議閣下於拍賣會前親自或委託他
人代閣下查看拍賣品。
4. 拍賣會的規則
本公司舉行的拍賣會為公開拍賣，各界人士均可參
加，閣下亦應把握其機會。
本公司亦保留權利，可全權酌情拒絕任何人士進入
本公司物業或任何拍賣會，而無須提出理由。本公
司可全權決定銷售所得款項、任何拍賣品是否包括
於拍賣會、拍賣會進行的方式，以及本公司可以按
我們選擇的任何次序進行拍賣，而不論圖錄內所
載的拍賣品編號。因此，閣下應查核拍賣會的日期
及開始時間，是否有拍賣品撤銷或有新加入的拍賣
品。請注意有拍賣品撤銷或新加入均可能影響閣下
對其有興趣的拍賣品的拍賣時間。
本公司可全權決定拒絕任何出價，採用我們認為適
合的出價增幅，將任何拍賣品分開拍賣，將兩項或
以上拍賣品合併拍賣，撤銷於某個拍賣會上拍賣
的任何拍賣品，以及於有爭議時將任何拍賣品重
新拍賣。
拍賣速度可超過每小時100項拍賣品，而出價增幅
一般約為10%。然而，這些都可因不同的拍賣會及
拍賣人而有所不同，請向主辦拍賣會的部門查詢這
方面的意見。
倘若拍賣品有底價，拍賣人可按其絕對酌情權代表
賣家出價（直至金額不等於或超過該底價為止）。
本公司不會就任何拍賣品設有底價或不設底價而向
閣下負責。
倘若設有底價，並假設底價所用的貨幣單位對成交
價估計所用貨幣單位的匯率並無出現不利變動，底
價通常不會高於圖錄所載的任何最低成交價估計。
任何拍賣品的買家為出價最高者（在符合任何適用
的底價的情況下）並為拍賣人以敲打拍賣人槌子形
式接納其出價的競投人。任何有關最高可接受出價
的爭議由拍賣人以絕對酌情權決定。
所有競投出價須就拍賣人宣佈的實際拍賣品編號
作出。
拍賣會上可能會使用電子貨幣換算機。該設備乃為
採用若干貨幣的出價而提供與其相等幣值的一般指
引，本公司不會就使用該等貨幣換算機的任何錯誤
而負責。
本公司謹此知會閣下，本公司可能為保安理由以及
協助解決拍賣會上可能在出價方面產生的任何爭
議，而以攝錄機錄影拍賣會作為記錄及可能將電話
內容錄音。
在某些例如拍賣珠寶的拍賣會，我們或會在銀幕上
投射拍賣品的影像，此服務乃為便於在拍賣會上觀
看。銀幕上的影像只應視為顯示當時正進行拍賣的
拍賣品，閣下須注意，所有競投出價均與拍賣人實
際宣佈的拍賣品編號有關，本公司不會就使用該等
銀幕的任何錯誤而負責。
5. 競投
參加競投的任何人士，必須於拍賣會前填妥並交回
本公司的競投表格，競投人登記表格或缺席者及電
話競投表格），否則本公司不會接受其出價。本公
司可要求閣下提供有關身份、住址、財務資料及介
紹人的證明，閣下必須應本公司要求提供該等證
明，否則本公司不會接受閣下出價。請攜帶護照、
香港身份證（或附有照片的類似身份證明文件）及
扣賬卡或信用卡出席拍賣會。本公司可要求閣下交
付保證金，方接受競投。
即使已填妥競投表格，本公司仍有權拒絕任何人士
進入拍賣會。
親自出席競投
閣下須於拍賣會舉行當日（或，如可以，之前）前
往拍賣會的競投人登記櫃檯填寫競投人登記表格。
所採用的競投編號制度可稱為「舉牌競投」。閣下
會獲發一個註有號碼的大型牌子（「號牌」），以
便閣下於拍賣會競投。要成功投得拍賣品，閣下須
確保拍賣人可看到閣下號牌的號碼，該號碼會用作
識別閣下為買家。由於所有拍賣品均會按照競投人
登記表格所載的姓名及地址發出發票，故閣下不應
將號牌轉交任何其他人士使用。發票一經發出後將
不予更改。
若對於成交價或閣下是否成功投得某項拍賣品有
任何疑問，閣下必須於下一項拍賣品競投前向拍
賣人提出。拍賣人的決定得視為最終及不可推翻
的決定。
拍賣會結束後，或閣下完成競投後，請把號牌交回
競投人登記櫃檯。
電話競投
若閣下擬用電話於拍賣會競投，請填妥缺席者及電
話競投表格，該表格可於本公司辦事處索取或附於
圖錄內。請於拍賣會舉行前最少24小時把該表格交
回負責有關拍賣會的辦事處。閣下須負責查核本公
司的競投辦事處是否已收到閣下的出價。電話內容
可能被錄音。電話競投辦法為一項視情況酌情提供
的服務，並非所有拍賣品均可採用。若於拍賣會舉
行時無法聯絡閣下，或競投時電話接駁受到干擾，
本公司不會負責代表閣下競投。有關進一步詳情請
與我們聯絡。
以郵遞或傳真方式競投
缺席者及電話競投表格載於本圖錄後，閣下須填妥
該表格並送交負責有關拍賣會的辦事處。由於在有
兩個或以上競投人就拍賣品遞交相同出價時，會優
先接受最先收到的出價，因此，為閣下的利益起
見，應盡早交回表格。無論如何，所有出價最遲須
於拍賣會開始前24小時收到。請於交回閣下的缺
席者及電話競投表格前，仔細檢查該表格是否已填
妥並已由閣下簽署。閣下須負責查核本公司的競投
辦事處是否已收到閣下的出價。此項額外服務屬免
費及保密性質。閣下須承擔作出該等出價的風險，
本公司不會就未能收到及／或代為出價而承擔任何
責任。所有代閣下作出的出價會以盡可能最低的價
格作出，惟須受拍賣品的底價及其他出價的規限。
在適當時，閣下的出價會下調至最接近之金額，以
符合拍賣人指定的出價增幅。新競投人在遞交出
價時須提供身份證明，否則可導致閣下的出價不
予受理。
網上競投
有關如何在網上競投的詳情，請瀏覽本公司網站
http://www.bonhams.com。
透過代理人競投
本公司會接受代表競投表格所示主事人作出的出
價，惟本公司有權拒絕代表主事人的代理作出的出
價，並可能要求主事人以書面形式確認代理獲授權
出價。儘管如此，正如競投表格所述，任何作為他
人代理的人士（不論他是否已披露其為代理或其主
事人的身份），須就其獲接納的出價而根據因此
而產生的合約與主事人共同及個別向賣家及邦瀚
斯負責。
在上文規限下，倘若閣下是代表他人於拍賣會競投
拍賣品，請知會本公司。同樣，倘若閣下擬委託他
人代表閣下於拍賣會競投，亦請知會本公司，但根
據閣下所填缺席者及電話競投表格而由本公司代為
競投除外。假若本公司並無於拍賣會前以書面形
式認可有關代理安排，則本公司有權假定該名於拍
賣會上競投的人士是代表本身進行競投。因此，該
名於拍賣會上競投的人士將為買家，並須負責支付
成交價及買家費用以及有關收費。若本公司事先已

HK/NTB/MAIN/3.2022
認許閣下所代表的當事人，則我們會向閣下的主事
人發出發票而非閣下。就代理代表其當事人作出的
出價，本公司須事先獲得該當事人的身份證明及地
址。有關詳情，請參與本公司的業務規則及聯絡本
公司客戶服務部。
6. 買家與賣家及買家與邦瀚斯的合約
於買家投得拍賣品後，賣家與買家須按圖錄後附錄
一所載銷售合約的條款，訂立拍賣品的銷售合約，
除非該等條款已於拍賣會前及／或於拍賣會上以口
頭公佈形式被修訂。閣下須負責支付買價，即成交
價加任何稅項。
同時，本公司作為拍賣人亦會與買家訂立另一份合
約，即買家協議，其條款載於圖錄後部的附錄二
內。若閣下為成功競投人，請細閱本圖錄內銷售合
約及買家協議的條款。本公司可於訂立該等協議前
修訂其中一份或同時兩份協議的條款，修訂方式可
以是在圖錄載列不同的條款，及／或於圖錄加入插
頁，及／或於拍賣會場地以通告，及／或於拍賣會
之前或之上以口頭形式公佈。閣下須注意此等可能
修訂的情況，並於競投前查詢是否有任何修訂。
7. 買家費用及買家須支付的其他收費
根據買家協議，買家須按照買家協議條款及下文所
列的費率向本公司支付費用（買家費用），該費用
按成交價計算，並為成交價以外的收費。買家亦須
按照買家協議的規定支付儲存收費的開支。
買家須就本次拍賣會所購買的每件拍賣品按以下費
率支付買家費用：
成交價首200,000港元的27.5%
成交價200,001港元以上至7,500,000港元的26%
成交價7,500,001港元以上至 50,000,000港元的20%
成交價50,000,000港元以上的14.5%
8. 稅項
買家支付的成交價及買家費用並不包括任何商品或
服務稅或其他稅項（不論香港或其他地方是否徵收
該等稅項）。若根據香港法例或任何其他法例而須
繳納該等稅項，買家須單獨負責按有關法例規定的
稅率及時間繳付該等稅項，或如該等稅項須由本公
司繳付，則本公司可把該等稅項加於買家須支付
的買價。
9. 付款
於出價競投拍賣品前，閣下必須確保擁有可動用資
金，以向本公司全數支付買家及買家費用（加稅項
及任何其他收費及開支）。若閣下為成功競投人，
閣下須於拍賣會後第二個工作日下午四時三十分前
向本公司付款，以便所有款項於拍賣會後第七個工
作日前已結清。閣下須以下列其中一種方法付款
（所有支票須以Bonhams (Hong Kong) Limited)。
邦瀚斯保留於任何時間更改付款條款的權利。除非
本公司事先同意，由登記買家以外的任何人士付款
概不接受。
邦瀚斯首選的付款方式是通過銀行匯款：
閣下可把款項電匯至本公司的信託帳
戶。請註明閣下的號牌編號及發票號碼作為參考。
本公司信託帳戶的詳情如下：
銀行： HSBC
地址： Head Office
1 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong
帳戶名稱： Bonhams (Hong Kong)
Limited-Client A/C
帳號： 808 870 174001
Swift code: HSBCHKHHHKH
若以銀行匯款支付，在扣除任何銀行費用及或將付
款貨幣兌換為港元後的金額，本公司所收到的金額
不得少於發票所示的應付港元金額。
由一家銀行的香港分行付款的私人港元支票：須待
支票結清後，閣下方可領取拍賣品。
銀行匯票／本票：如閣下可提供適當身份證明，而
這些資金源自您自己的帳戶，且本公司信納該匯票
屬真實，本公司可容許閣下即時領取拍賣品。
現金： 如所購得的拍賣品總值不超過HK$80,000，
閣下可以使用鈔票、錢幣為這次拍賣會上所購得的
拍賣品付款。如所購得的拍賣品總值超過
HK$80,000，HK$80,000以外的金額，敬請閣下使
用鈔票、錢幣以外的方式付款。
由香港銀行發出的扣賬卡 (易辦事)：以此等卡支付
將不會收取附加費。
中國銀聯（CUP）借記卡： 以此方法付款，將不
收取額外的費用。
我們建議，閣下在拍賣前可預先通知發卡銀行，以
免您於付款時，由於需要確認授權而造成延誤。
信用卡：美國運通卡，Visa, Mastercard卡及中國
銀聯信用卡均可使用。請注意，以信用卡付款的
話，本公司每次拍賣接受總數不超過HK$200,000
。如所購得的拍賣品總值超過HK$200,000，閣下
可使用匯款或以上提及的方式支付。
在符合我們的規定下，如要以通過電話的形式以
信用卡支付，本公司每次拍賣接受的總數不超過
HK$50,000，但此方式不適用於第一次成功競拍
的買家。
10. 領取及儲存
拍賣品的買家須待全數以已結清款項付款後，方可
領取拍賣品（本公司與買家另有安排除外）。有關
領取拍賣品、儲存拍賣品以及本公司的儲存承辦商
詳情載於圖錄後的附錄二之買家協議。
11. 運輸
有關這方面的問題，請向本公司負責拍賣會的客戶
服務部門查詢。
12. 出口／貿易限制
閣下須單獨承擔符合與閣下購買拍賣品有關的香港
所有出口及從海外進口的規例以及取得有關出口
及／或進口許可證的責任。
各國對發出進出口許可證有不同的規定，閣下應了
解所有有關的當地規定及條文。
倘若閣下未能或延誤取得該等許可證，閣下不可撤
銷任何銷售，亦不容許閣下延遲全數支付拍賣品。
13. 瀕危野生動植物種國際貿易公約（「CITES」）
建議買家在需要從香港出口任何貨物到進口地時，
了解適用的香港出口及海外進口規例。買家亦須注
意，除非取得香港漁農自然護理署發出的CITES出
口證，香港禁止出口任何以象牙、鯨魚骨、龜甲、
犀牛角、珊瑚及其他受限制物品所做成的物品或包
含該等原素的物品。辦理該等出口證可能需時八
個星期。
請注意在圖錄內拍賣品編號旁附有Y的拍賣品包含
一個或多個上述的限制物品。但沒有附有Y字母
的，並不自動地表示拍賣品不受CITES規例所限。
本公司建議買家在出價前從有關監管機構取得關於
進出口管制的資料、規定及費用。
14. 賣家及／或邦瀚斯的責任
除根據銷售合約賣家須對買家承擔的責任外，本公
司或賣家（不論是疏忽或其他）概不對拍賣品說明
或拍賣品的成交價估計的任何錯誤或錯誤說明或遺
漏負責，而不論其是載於圖錄內或其他，亦不論是
於拍賣會上或之前以口頭或書面形式作出。本公司
或賣家亦不就任何業務、利潤、收益或收入上的損
失，或聲譽受損，或業務受干擾或管理層或職工浪
費時間，或任何種類的間接損失或相應產生的損害
而承擔任何責任，而在任何情況下均不論指稱所蒙
受損失或損害賠償的性質、數量或來源，亦不論該
等損失或損害賠償是否由於任何疏忽、其他侵權
法、違反合約（如有）或法定責任、復還申索或其
他而產生或就此而申索。
在任何情況下，倘若本公司及／或賣家就任何拍賣
品或對任何拍賣品的說明或成交價估計，或任何拍
賣品有關拍賣會的進行而須承擔責任，不論其是損
害賠償、彌償或責任分擔，或復還補救責任或其
他，本公司及／或賣家的責任（倘若本公司及賣家
均須負責，雙方聯同負責）將限於支付金額最高不
超過拍賣品買價的款項，而不論指稱所蒙受損失或
損害賠償或所申索應付款項的性質、數量或來源，
亦不論該等責任是由於任何疏忽、其他侵權法、違
反合約（如有）或法定責任或其他而產生。
上文所述不得解釋為排除或限制（不論直接或間
接）本公司就(i)欺詐，或(ii)因本公司疏忽（或因本
公司所控制的任何人士或本公司在法律上須代其負
責任的任何人士的疏忽）引致人身傷亡，或(iii)根據
香港法例第314章佔用人法律責任條例，本公司須
負責的作為或不作為，或(iv)任何法律上不可排除或
限制的其他責任或(v)本公司根據買家協議第9段的
承諾，而須承擔的責任，或排除或限制任何人士就
上述而享有的權利或補救方法。此段同樣適用於賣
家，猶如本段凡提述本公司均以賣家取代。
15. 損壞及修復
競投人須注意本圖錄並無就任何瑕疵、損壞或修復
提供指引。邦瀚斯可在拍賣會前24小時提供一份詳
細的狀況報告。本公司在提供狀況報告時，不能保
證並無任何沒有提及的其他瑕疵。競投人應自行審
視拍賣品，以了解其狀況。請參閱刊載在本圖錄的
銷售合約。
16. 書籍
如上文所述，拍賣品乃以其「現況」售予買家，附
有以下拍賣品說明所列出的各種瑕疪、缺點及錯誤。
然而，在買家協議第 11 段所列出之情況下，閣下
有權拒絕領取書籍。請注意：購買包含印刷書籍、
無框地圖及裝訂手稿的拍賣品，將無須繳付買家費
用的增值稅。
17. 鐘錶
所有拍賣品均以拍賣時的「現況」出售；對於鐘錶
狀況並沒有提供任何指引，並不代表該拍賣品狀況
良好、毫無缺陷，或未曾維修、修復。大部份鐘錶
在其正常使用期內都曾維修，並或裝進非原裝的配
件。此外，邦瀚斯並不表述或保證鐘錶都在正常運
轉的狀態中。由於鐘錶通常包含精細而複雜的機械
裝置，競投人應當知悉鐘錶或需接受保養、更換電
池或進行維修，以上全是買家的責任。競投人應當
知悉勞力士、法穆蘭及崑崙等品牌的腕錶進口至美
國是有嚴格限制的，或不能經船運而只能由個人帶
進。
18. 珠寶
寶石
根據以往經驗，很多寶石都經過一系列的處理去提
升外觀。藍寶石及紅寶石慣常會作加熱處理以改良
色澤及清晰度；為了類似原因，綠寶石會經過油或
樹脂的處理。其他寶石則會經過如染色、輻照或鍍
膜等的處理。此等處理有些是永久的，有些則隨著
年月需要不斷維護以保持其外觀。競投人應當知悉
估計拍賣品的成交價時，已假設寶石或接受過該等
處理。有數家鑑定所可發出說明更詳盡的證書；但
就某件寶石所接受的處理與程度，不同鑑定所的結
論並不一定一致。倘若邦瀚斯已取得有關任何拍賣
品的相關證書，此等內容將於本圖錄裡披露。雖然
根據內部政策，邦瀚斯將盡力為某些寶石提供認可
鑑定所發出的證書，但要為每件拍賣品都獲取相關
證書，實際上並不可行。倘若本圖錄裡並沒有刊出
證書，競投人應當假設該等寶石已經過處理。邦瀚
斯或賣家任何一方在任何拍賣品出售以後，即使買
家取得不同意見的證書，也概不負責。
估計重量
如該寶石重量在本圖錄內文裡以大寫字母顯示，表
明該寶石未經鑲嵌，並且是由邦瀚斯稱重量的。如
果該寶石的重量以「大約」表示，以及並非以大寫
字母顯示，表明該寶石由我們依據其鑲嵌形式評估，
所列重量只是我們陳述的意見而已。此資料只作為
指引使用，競投人應當自行判別該資料的準確度。
署名
1. 鑽石胸針，由辜青斯基製造
當製造者的名字出現在名稱裡，邦瀚斯認為該物件
由該製造者製作。
2. 鑽石胸針，由辜青斯基署名
邦瀚斯認為有署名的該是真品，但可能包含非原裝
的寶石，或該物件經過改動。
3. 鑽石胸針，由辜青斯基裝嵌
邦瀚斯認為物件由該珠寶商或寶石匠創作，但所用
寶石或設計是由客戶提供的。
19. 圖畫
拍賣品圖錄詞彙解釋
以下詞彙在本圖錄裡有下列意義，但以銷售合約內
跟拍賣品說明相關的一般條文為準：
「巴薩諾」：我們認為這是該藝術家的作品。倘若
該藝術家的名字不詳，其姓氏後附有一串星號，不
論前面有沒有列出名字的首字母，表示依我們的意
見這乃是該藝術家的作品；
「出自巴薩諾」：我們認為這很可能是該藝術家的
作品，但其確定程度不如上一個類別那麼肯定；
「巴薩諾畫室／工作室」：我們認為這是該藝術家
畫室裡不知名人士的作品，是否由該藝術家指導下
創作則不能確定；
「巴薩諾圈子」：我們認為這是由與該藝術家關係
密切的人士所創作，但不一定是其弟子；
「巴薩諾追隨者」：我們認為這是以該藝術家風格
創作的畫家的作品，屬當代或接近當代的，但不一
定是其弟子；
「巴薩諾風格」：我們認為這是該藝術家風格的、
並且屬較後期的作品；
「仿巴薩諾」：我們認為這是該藝術家某知名畫作
的複製作品；
「由……署名及／或註上日期及／或題詞」：我們
認為署名及／或日期及／或題詞出自該藝術家的手

HK/NTB/MAIN/3.2022
筆；
「載有……的署名及／或日期及／或題詞」：我們
認為簽署及／或日期及／或題詞是由他人加上的。
20. 瓷器及玻璃
損毁及修復
在本圖錄裡，作為閣下的指引，在切實可行的範圍
內，我們會詳細記述所有明顯的瑕疪、裂痕及修復
狀況。此等實際的損毁說明不可能作為確定依據，
而且提供狀況報告後，我們不保證該物件不存在其
他沒有提及的瑕疪。競投人應當透過親自檢查而自
行判別每件拍賣品的狀況。請參閱刊載於本圖錄裡
的銷售合約。由於難以鑑別玻璃物件是否經過磨光，
本圖錄內的參考資料只列出清晰可看的缺口與裂
痕。不論程度嚴重與否，磨光狀況均不會提及。
21. 葡萄酒
凡在本公司總部拍賣場的以及需繳納增值稅的拍賣
品，或不能立刻領取。
檢驗葡萄酒
對於較大批量（定義見下文）的拍賣品，偶爾可進
行拍賣前試酒。通常，這只限於較新的及日常飲用
的葡萄酒。
我們一般不會開箱檢驗未開箱的葡萄酒。酒齡超過
20 年的酒通常已經開箱，缺量水平及外觀如有需要
會在本圖錄內說明，
酒塞與缺量
缺量指瓶塞底與液面之間的空間。波爾多酒瓶的缺
量水平一般在瓶頸下才會注意得到；而對於勃艮第、
阿爾薩斯、德國及干邑的酒瓶，則要大於 4 厘米（公
分）。可接受的缺量水平會隨著酒齡增加，一般的
可接受水平如下：
15 年以下－瓶頸內或少於 4 厘米
15-30 年－瓶肩頂部 (ts) 或最多 5 厘米
30 年或以上－瓶肩高處 (hs) 或最多 6 厘米
請注意：缺量水平在本圖錄發行至拍賣會舉行期間
或有所改變，而且瓶塞或會在運輸過程中出現問題。
本圖錄發行時，我們只對狀況說明出現差異承擔責
任，而對瓶塞問題所招致的損失，不論是在圖錄發
行之前或之後，我們概不負責。
批量購買的選擇
批量拍賣品乃指一定數目批次的、包含同款葡萄酒、
相同瓶數、相同瓶款及相同說明的拍賣品。批量拍
賣品內任何某批次的買家，可選擇以同樣價錢購買
該批量拍賣品其餘部份或全部的拍賣品，雖然該選
擇權最終由拍賣官全權酌情決定。因此，競投批量
拍賣品時，缺席的競投人最好能從第一批開始競投。
酒瓶細節及酒箱詞彙
本圖錄內下列詞彙有以下的意義：
CB – 酒莊瓶裝
DB – 葡萄園瓶裝
EstB – 莊園瓶裝
BB – 波爾多瓶裝
BE – 比利時瓶裝
FB – 法國瓶裝
GB – 德國瓶裝
OB – 奧波爾圖瓶裝
