We hereby inform all those participating in the auctions (live and online) that they shall be held subject to the following conditions and that anyone taking part in the auctions hereby accepts these conditions as applicable. As auctioneer, One East Larasati, herein referred to as the Company, acts as agent for the seller(s).

Section I
LOTS
Objects of Art Subject to Auction
Article 1.
The Company shall auction an object of art consigned to it for sale by auction (such object of art shall hereinafter be referred to as "the Lot") in the Company's own name.


Condition of Lot
Article 2.
On the grounds that the Lot will usually be by its very nature old and is to be sold on an "as is" basis, the Company shall in no way be responsible for stains, scratches, or any other defects of the Lot, or for any latent defect of the Lot.


Preview
Article 3.
(1) The Company shall arrange a preview of the Lot for prospective bidders before the auction.
(2) Prospective bidders may inspect and examine the Lot at the preview (but shall not be permitted to touch the Lot except when necessary and with the Company's consent. The same shall apply hereinafter). Any person who places a bid does so at his own judgment and responsibility, having due consideration for the condition of the Lot (including any defects).
(3) The Company may ask any person desiring his admittance to the preview to present proof of identity, and may, at its absolute discretion and without explanation, refuse admittance thereto.


Catalogues
Article 4.
(1) The Company shall prepare catalogues providing information on the Lots and distribute the same to prospective bidders at a price.
(2) Illustrations contained in the catalogues are intended solely for the purpose of identification and reference, and may not be taken to accurately represent the color or shape of the Lot nor to indicate the conditions or qualities thereof. The Company shall in no way be responsible for any discrepancy between the illustrations contained in the catalogues and the actual objects.
(3) The descriptions and comments that appear in the catalogues (such as artist, title, material, restorations, signature, size, time and place of production, expert opinion, provenance, bibliography) are compiled by the Company with due care and attention. Nevertheless, these descriptions and comments appear solely for the reference of prospective bidders, the Company shall in no way be responsible for any errors in the statements made or any discrepancies between the catalogue descriptions and the actual object. Prospective bidders shall inspect and examine the actual objects at the above mentioned preview and shall place a bid at their own examination and on their own responsibility, having formed their own judgment with respect to the matters contained in the descriptions and comments.
(4) The Company may publish the appraised value of the Lot in its catalogues. The appraised value is given as the range between a high and low figure designated in Hong Kong Dollars (HKD) or any other currencies (and does not include the buyer's premium). The appraised value shall appear solely for the reference of prospective bidders based on what the Company considers appropriate, taking factors such as present market conditions into account. In view of the very nature of an auction, the actual sales price shall in no way be determined by the appraised value. Therefore the actual price may be either more or less than the appraised value. However, no sale shall be made at a price below the reserve price (which shall be confidential and which need not be less than the appraised value) provided for in Article 22.


Changes to Catalogue Entries
Article 5.
Descriptions and comments in the catalogues are subject to change without notice. Any change shall be posted in writing at the auction site or announced orally by the auctioneer immediately before the auction of the Lot in question. In the case of any changes, the auction shall be regarded as having been conducted according to the terms as changed.

Method of Auction
Article 8.
(1) The auction shall be presided over by an auctioneer appointed by the Company and conducted as a series of progressively higher bids in the manner described below. The bid price shall not include the buyer's premium. A bidder agrees to pay to the Company upon the conclusion of any sale the purchase price, as prescribed in Article 13.
(2) The Company shall not announce the name of a consignor or the reserve price if the reserve price has been placed according to Article 22, except where the consignor's consent has been obtained.
(3) The auction shall progress in sequence following the numbers of the Lot ("lot number") in the catalogue. However, the Company may withdraw a scheduled Lot from the auction without prior notice, or auction separately a number of Lots originally listed under the same lot number, or auction altogether Lots originally listed under several lot numbers.
(4) The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in the conduct of the auction and shall be completely free to set the opening bid and the increment of each successive bid. (Where the reserve price has been placed according to Article 22, the opening bid shall be set regardless of the reserve price and may fall below or exceed it).

(8) The Company shall, in order to attain the reserve price defined in Article 22, bid on behalf of the consignor until a bid from another bidder reaches or exceeds the reserve price.

(9) The auctioneer may, at his absolute discretion, refuse any bid without explanation.
(10) Any person who has placed a bid shall be bound by that bid until a higher one is placed (including a bid by the Company as referred to in Paragraph 8). If a higher bid is placed, the previous bid shall become null and void, except if the higher bid shall be invalidated due to a refusal by the auctioneer or other circumstances in which case the previous bid shall remain binding.
(11) A bid shall also become null and void if it is refused by the auctioneer, or if the auction closes without reaching the reserve price, or if the relevant Lot is put up for re-auction by the auctioneer.
(12) When the auctioneer calls the highest bid price which he has recognized from among the bid prices two or three times and lets the hammer fall, a contract of sale for the highest bid price shall take effect between the Company and the highest bidder, who shall then become the purchaser. A bidder who has become a purchaser as above shall be hereinafter referred to as "the successful bidder" and the price shall be hereinafter referred to as "hammer price".
(13) If the highest bidder wishes to withdraw his bid before the hammer falls, the decision whether the highest bidder or the next highest bidder shall become the purchaser is at the absolute discretion of the auctioneer.
(14) Any question or dispute concerning the auction shall be settled by the auctioneer at his absolute discretion, and all parties involved shall abide by his absolute decision.

(5) If two or more written bids for the same Lot offer the same price, precedence shall be given to whichever was received first by the Company. If two or more such bids are received at the same time and the Lot in question is knocked down at the bid price described under the preceding Paragraph, the successful bidder shall be decided by lottery later.

If the Buyer at that time has not yet paid the full amount due, the Company shall have the right to cancel the sale and/or if the Buyer has paid the full amount and if the Company have at the time not paid the seller the whole or part of the full amount due to the seller, then the Company will refund to the Buyer the purchase price of the lot and/or If the Buyer had paid the full amount and if the Company at that time had also paid the Seller the whole or part of the full amount due, then the Seller must refund to us, on demand, the total amount paid. The Company shall then refund the total amount received from the Seller to the Buyer plus any balance due to the Buyer to pay back the full purchase price of the lot. The Buyer does not reserve the right to claim any interests on the purchase price paid by the Buyer. In the latter case the Company shall exercise a lien over any property of the Seller under our control as security for the amount due. The Company reserve the right to seek for further expert opinion.
