This year's New Year treats come from Laholms Auktionskammare, which has gathered a delightful collection of varied antiques just in time for the year's end. A salon table with figural inlays is perfect for resting a coffee cup, while the plate from an East Indiaman brims with historical resonance. Naturally, it pairs well with Walter Bengtsson's silver shell with its enameled interior.
The auction’s sole painting is a French landscape by Helge Johansson, whose fascinating but tragically brief life story adds depth to the work. And the pièce de résistance among these New Year treats is the extensive collection of Alfa and Corall trading cards—including the iconic photograph of Edson Arantes do Nascimento, better known as Pelé.
