注意事项
On occasion, Christie's has a direct financial interest in the outcome of the sale of certain lots consigned for sale. This will usually be where it has guaranteed to the Seller that whatever the outcome of the auction, the Seller will receive a minimum sale price for the work. This is known as a minimum price guarantee. This is a lot where Christie’s holds a direct financial guarantee interest.
The Worshipful Company of Framework Knitters was granted a charter by Cromwell in 1657. The Company used arms of this form between 1657 and 1738, when they were redesigned.
