But most of us raising a virtual paddle are not in it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/?p=366761\">just to win it<\/a>. We\u2019re in it for the deal. We\u2019ve discovered something we must have \u2014 a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/art\/photography\/\">vintage photograph<\/a>, say, or a beautiful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/furniture\/seating\/chairs\/\">antique chair<\/a> or chic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/fashion\/handbags-purses-bags\/\">designer handbag<\/a>. And often, that coveted object has an opening bid set low enough to stir up competition and can be acquired for less than we would pay in a private or retail sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s even better is that, thanks to the transparency of the bidding process, we can see if the price is escalating and where we stand vis-\u00e0-vis our competitors and then decide exactly how much we are willing to spend. So, unless there is a particularly wild bidding frenzy, there are incredible finds to be had at appealing price points, whether we\u2019re scouring auctions for something specific or taking pleasure in browsing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAuctions offer a unique opportunity for clients to engage more actively, allowing them to set the value based on their own interest and passion for a piece,\u201d says 1stDibs seller Adrian Agudo, of 20th-century design specialists <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/dada\/\">DADA<\/a>, in Barcelona, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/salvador-dali-xai-lamb-tables\/\">has been participating<\/a> in 1stDibs Auctions since they launched, in 2021. \u201cAuctions create a dynamic and interactive marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past three years, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/about\/vetted-sellers\/\">vetted dealers<\/a> have put hundreds of objects, across a variety of categories \u2014 from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/auctions\/jewelry\/\">jewelry<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/auctions\/fashion\/\">fashion<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/auctions\/furniture\/\">furniture<\/a>, design and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/auctions\/art\/\">art<\/a> \u2014 on the block, where they&#8217;ve sold for great prices.

While the painting is unsigned, which was typical at the time, Potter notes strong similarities with the work of renowned Italian-born painter Jacopo Amigoni (1685\u20131752), the \u201cgo-to portraitist for the fashionable and glamorous of European aristocracy.\u201d As a dealer, Potter appreciates the democratic nature of auctions and the wide range of buyers that he can engage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-australian-crystal-opal-and-diamond-halo-ring-in-18-karat-white-gold-setting-2022\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/rings\/cocktail-rings\/52-ct-crystal-australian-opal-diamond-halo-ring-18k-white-gold\/id-j_16316232\/\">Australian Crystal Opal and Diamond Halo Ring in 18-Karat White-Gold Setting, 2022<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/rings\/cocktail-rings\/52-ct-crystal-australian-opal-diamond-halo-ring-18k-white-gold\/id-j_16316232\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/j_16316232_1657089866228_bg_processed.webp\" alt=\"Crystal Australian Opal and Diamond Halo Ring in 18-Karat White Gold, 2022\" class=\"wp-image-420656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/j_16316232_1657089866228_bg_processed.webp 700w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/j_16316232_1657089866228_bg_processed-350x350.webp 350w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/j_16316232_1657089866228_bg_processed-120x120.webp 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/j_16316232_1657089866228_bg_processed-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/j_16316232_1657089866228_bg_processed-216x216.webp 216w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>List price:<\/strong> $3,600<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Final price:<\/strong> $1,600 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A unique object with great intrinsic value, this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/style\/art-deco\/\">Art Deco<\/a>\u2013style cocktail ring, put up by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/lilly-m-jewelers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lilly M Jewelers<\/a>, of Bangkok, Thailand, is a sparkling example of the fine jewelry attainable at competitive prices through 1stDibs Auctions.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/R3922_O_D2_WG_b_01_master.webp\" alt=\"opal and diamond ring on hand\" class=\"wp-image-420725\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/R3922_O_D2_WG_b_01_master.webp 700w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/R3922_O_D2_WG_b_01_master-350x350.webp 350w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/R3922_O_D2_WG_b_01_master-120x120.webp 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/R3922_O_D2_WG_b_01_master-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/R3922_O_D2_WG_b_01_master-216x216.webp 216w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The updated classic design centers on a large Australian crystal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/jewelry\/rings\/cocktail-rings\/stone\/opal\/\">opal<\/a> \u2014 so named <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/october-birthstone-opal\/\">for its translucency<\/a> \u2014 weighing 5.52 carats.

Put on the block by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/dada\/\">DADA<\/a>, the stool is a prime example of iconic French designer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/charlotte-perriand\/\">Charlotte Perriand<\/a>\u2019s progressive modernism and a relative rarity on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Perriand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/introspective-magazine\/charlotte-perriand\/\">is best known<\/a> for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/le-corbusier-jeanneret-perriand\/\">steel tubular furniture<\/a> she made with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/le-corbusier\/\">Le Corbusier<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/pierre-jeanneret\/\">Pierre Jeanneret<\/a> in the late 1920s, she preferred working with wood. She designed this stool in the 1960s as part of a suite of furniture for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/charlotte-perriand-les-arcs\/\">Les Arcs<\/a>, a ski resort in the French Alps known, in part, for being Perriand\u2019s last major architectural project. The piece demonstrates how modernist figures like Perriand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/introspective-magazine\/mid-century-modernisms-first-comeback\/\">brought good design to the masses<\/a>. The pine wood used, which came from the region (Savoie), was affordable, and the designs were sturdy and reproducible on a large scale, as well as beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat makes this piece unmistakably Perriand is her meticulous attention to material quality and craftsmanship \u2014 like the way different elements of the stool are joined,\u201d says Agudo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perriand didn\u2019t just design furniture at Les Arcs, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/travel\/2019\/nov\/30\/skiing-les-arcs-an-architectural-ski-tour-50-years-anniversary-modernist\">she created a concept<\/a>. As the lead architect, she situated the mass housing to minimally disrupt the natural landscape, and the units were designed with open plans so that women wouldn\u2019t be alone in the kitchen, cut off from social interactions. The furnishings are hard to come by, which makes this stool&#8217;s price especially remarkable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPerriand&#8217;s furniture has become increasingly rare, as her pieces are highly collectible and sought after,\u201d says Agudo. \u201cHer work <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/buy\/charlotte-perriand-les-arcs\/\">from the Les Arcs project<\/a>, in particular, appears on the market infrequently.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"interstitial-banner interstitial-banner-collection interstitial-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"interstitial-content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"interstitial-background-image\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"571\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/lp_auctions_icons.webp\" class=\"attachment-interstitial size-interstitial\" alt=\"auctions\" \/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"container interstitial-text\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"interstitial-link-around-text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/auctions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"interstitial-heading\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tShop 1stDibs Auctions\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"interstitial-subheading\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"gold-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/auctions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span>View All<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For some collectors, the allure of buying at auction is about the thrill of the win.
