The catalogues for Crafoord Auktioner Stockholm’s Art & Antiques sales are like a delightful journey through the fascinating world of art and antiquities. As we arrive at the twelfth edition, we are met with nearly 250 carefully curated lots. Here we trace the legacy of the Grand Tour, the trade with Asia, and the domestic heritage of high-quality craftsmanship.
Discerning collectors can explore treasures both small and grand in scale. Among the highlights are an Italian letterweight in red-speckled marble, a pair of utterly charming Louis XVI-style candlesticks, NK’s classic credit token, a cast-iron signal cannon, and an impressive silver tankard crowned with a Viking king on its lid. Add to that Swedish plein-air painting, various antique firearms, and Peter the Great on horseback, executed in bronze with a clever little hiding compartment in its base.
Just a few examples from this splendid array of historical delights.
Welcome to Crafoord Auktioner Stockholm!
