BEACHWOOD, OH, UNITED STATES, October 8, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Neue Auctions’ online-only Property of a Gentleman auction slated for Friday, October 18th, beginning promptly at 12 o’clock noon Eastern time, features a single-owner’s collection of luxury items, jewelry and art. It’s not a huge auction – just 191 lots – but what it may lack in size it more than makes up for in the quality and value of the merchandise.
Most of the artwork was purchased from galleries in California over the last 20 years. The luxury items, including fine watches and jewelry, all pre-owned, are in very nice condition, some with original box and papers. Very few items have reserves. The Friday auction date at 12 noon, now true of all Neue sales moving forward, is designed to accommodate all US and European bidders.
“This auction gives bidders a glimpse of how this gentleman lived,” said Cynthia Maciejewski of Neue Auctions. “It’s one of the most fun and colorful auctions we’ve ever presented. I look around and see constructed LEGOs, some displayed on stacks of orange Hermes boxes, a Warren Platner table nearby and a large Hugo Rivera painting on the wall – all so full of life and color.”
Maciejewski said the auction is “a great tribute to a life well lived, and we’re so pleased to create this auction catalog for all our bidders to enjoy.” Auction highlights include three Hermes bags (two of them Birkins), a Bvlgari Serpenti Viper ring and a Panthère de Cartier ring, pre-owned watches by Breitling, Rolex, Cartier, Muller and others, plus Apple/Hermes watches as well.
The Hermes handbags are expected to attract keen bidder interest. They include the following:
• An Hermes Birkin 50 Ebene Barenia Faubourg brown leather bag with palladium plated hardware, fully lined leather interior, protective feet at the base, with lock, keys, dust bag and original box (est. $6,000-$10,000).
• An Hermes Ebene Clemence Jean Paul Gaultier designed shoulder Birkin bag 42, with palladium plated hardware, protective feet at the base, lock, keys, clochette and dust bag and original box. (est. $5,000-$8,000).
• An Hermes Chocolate Veau Doblis suede Victoria bag, with Clemence brown leather handles and trim, palladium plated zip closure hardware and protective feet at the base, with lock, keys, clochette, luggage tag, dust bag and original box (est. $2,000-$4,000).
The jewelry category is just as tantalizing, with fine offerings that include these superb pieces:
• A Panthère de Cartier 18k white gold diamond and emerald ring in the form of a panther, set with pave diamonds, inset emerald eyes and black onyx nose, marked Cartier, with Cartier hallmark and AU 750, having 72 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 0.68 cts. (est.$4,000-$6,000).
• A Bvlgari 18k white gold and diamond Serpenti Viper ring, in original boxes, one coil, with pave diamonds. The brilliant-cut diamonds have an approximate total weight of 0.55ct tdw. (est. $3,000-$5,000).
• A Cartier 18k white gold ‘Juste Un Clou’ bangle bracelet, size 19, hinge and clasp bracelet in the form of a nail, marked Cartier 19 BLB929 750. In original box and exterior box with booklet. Approximate Weight: 38 grams (est. $2,500-$4,500).

A men’s Franck Muller Casablanca watch with stainless steel case, engine turned steel salmon colored dial with Arabic numerals and luminous hands, has an estimate of $1,500-$2,500. Also, a Series 6 Hermes for Apple 1 watch made in France, boasting a stainless-steel case, sapphire crystal leather display and Hermes emerald green leather band, is expected to bring $200-$400.
