Basketry Masterworks and Pre-Columbian Treasures Headline Heritage's Dual Nov. 6. Ethnographic Art Auctions Exquisitely curated auctions feature exemplary ancient goldwork, work from legendary weavers, rare tribal feast bowls and African ritual masks, among other prized antiquities November 6 marks a banner day for Heritage Auctions, as it presents an extraordinary pair of auctions with items for antiquities collectors and institutions of all levels. Heritage's Ethnographic Art: Property From an Important New York Collection Signature® Auction showcases a small but distinguished selection of works, while its Ethnographic Art: American Indian, Pre-Columbian and Tribal Art Signature® Auction celebrates the artistry and cultural legacy of indigenous and ancient peoples from around the world with a bounty of superb baskets, pottery, jewelry, textiles, ceremonial and presentation items. "Each of these auctions offers a superlative collection of lots representative of the fine craftsmanship and artistic expression displayed by a diverse, millennia-spanning assortment of indigenous people," says Delia Sullivan, Heritage Auctions' Ethnographic Art Director Among the many standouts in the American Indian, Pre-Columbian and Tribal Art Auction is a finely shaped tumbaga shaman-figure pendant. The figure clasps a baton or rattle in each hand and wears an enormous elaborately designed crest, his face characterized by an intense entranced expression. This exceptional gold alloy piece stands at an impressive 5-3/4 inches height and weighs in at a sturdy 206 grams. Read the full press release
Bidding Notes
Web Tips How to use HA.com Website Bidding Tutorial
New: Financing Now Available Heritage now offers extended payment plan options up to 6 months to qualified clients on select items. See more details here.
Bid Protection Bid Protection allows you to ensure you are not outbid by automatically increasing your bid to the next full increment if you are outbid during the live event. This protects you from being "sniped" by a single increment. Bid Protection can be entered on all items except the current lot and the next upcoming lot in a Live Auction. Note: The extra increment won't be placed until the item is up for live bidding, so it is possible that you could be outbid by a bid placed prior to live bidding, such as another proxy bid, live proxy bid, mail bid, etc., which could result in your losing the lot by that one increment. For the same reason, it is also possible that a currently losing bid with bid protection placed could potentially win the lot once the lot is subject to live bidding and the Bid Protection increment(s) is placed.
Buyer's premium A Buyer's Premium is charged in addition to the successful bid. The applicable Buyer's Premium for bids placed with Heritage for this Auction is 25% of the successful bid (minimum $49) per lot..
Heritage Live! allows you to place late proxy bids and compete live against the auction floor from your PC or mobile device*. We recommend placing proxy bids before the live session in the unlikely event either side experiences technical problems during the auction. Note: Proxy bidding ends ten minutes prior to the session start time. Live Proxy bidding on Heritage Live now starts within 2 hours of when the auction opens for proxy bidding and continues through the live session.
