In 2013 Cambi created a department dedicated to the sector of Ancient and Collection Silvers, and after three years here is an analysis of what looks like a race towards an always greater success.
We started the first year with two sales held alongside Jewellery, where of the approximately 220 lots presented of silverware 170 were awarded , recording a percentage of sales of 75%. Among these, an important Russian tea service, made in St. Petersburg in 1840 for the Grand Duchess Olga, the daughter of Tsar Nicholas I, which reached 28.000 euros.
2014 saw an increase to three the auction rounds, with awards for about 500,000 euros, tripling the previous year's results. Under the hammer of the auctioneer we saw passing a beautiful Milanese coffee maker of the eighteenth century, from the prestigious workshop of Buccellati and sold for 15,000 euros, and a rare collection of works in silver filigree, many of them documented in major publications and collections including a refined Genoese casket of the nineteenth century which has reached more than 9,000 euros.
2015 saw this Department conquering amazing results, reaching one million euros of awards thanks to the quality of works for sale.
