A Modernism Garden Story

Any condition statement provided by Circa is offered as a courtesy to potential bidders or buyers, is solely an opinion, and should not be treated as a statement of fact. Circa is not responsible for any errors or omissions. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that an item is in perfect condition or free from wear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. All statements regarding an item (whether in a condition report, catalog, or on Circa's website, orally or in writing) are intended as opinions only and do not constitute representations or warranties of any kind. Dimensions and weights are approximate, and descriptions may not account for all faults or restorations. Bidders should rely solely on their personal examination of the item. Circa does not undertake any obligation to examine, investigate, or test items in depth, or at all, to establish the accuracy of descriptions or opinions provided in the catalog or elsewhere. Bidders should not assume that such examinations have occurred. Printed estimates reflect Circa's opinion on behalf of the seller regarding the likely range of the final hammer price. Estimates are not an indication of an item's value and do not include the buyer's premium or other applicable fees. Actual hammer prices may fall below or above the estimate range. Items are offered for sale "as is," with all faults and imperfections. Many items are second-hand and may vary in condition. Illustrations and photographs are provided for identification purposes only and may not accurately reflect color or condition. Buyers are responsible for personally evaluating each item for authenticity, condition, provenance, and suitability before bidding.

Bidders are solely responsible for errors in their bidding. Identical bids are prioritized based on the order received. The auctioneer's declaration of the winning bidder is final. In the event of disputes or errors, the auctioneer may reoffer the lot at their discretion. Circa reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time. Buyers must arrange for the pickup of purchased items within ten (10) days. Items not collected within this timeframe may incur storage fees or be deemed abandoned.
