Timeless Treasure Artistic Echoes of the Past

Thousand Planet Auction House

Welcome to "Timeless Treasure: Artistic Echoes of the Past," an auction that transcends time, showcasing a curated selection of items from major estate auctions. Each piece in this collection, acquired from estates in Dubai and various hobby enthusiasts, stands as a testament to artistic expression, irrespective of its age. Our collection is unique in its approach; we present these items as art first and foremost, emphasizing their aesthetic and artistic value rather than their historical or archaeological significance. This perspective allows us to appreciate each item for its beauty, craftsmanship, and artistic merit, detached from the constraints of time and origin. Starting at an accessible $10, each lot invites bidders to explore and appreciate art in its purest form. We encourage bidders to view these items through the lens of art connoisseurs, making personal judgments about their value and appeal. Please note that each lot is sold 'as is,' inclusive of all existing faults or imperfections. Thousand Planet Auction House represents the first point of provenance post-acquisition, and while we strive for detailed descriptions and high-quality photographs, we do not guarantee the condition, authenticity, or completeness of any lot. As bidders, your role is pivotal. We urge you to conduct your own research, review all provided materials, and consult external expertise if necessary. Our final sales are conclusive; we do not accept returns or issue refunds based on condition or authenticity disputes. Our dedicated team has worked tirelessly to research each artifact, employing visual analysis and comparison, drawing upon academic research and global records. However, we acknowledge the limitations of our research and encourage bidders to conduct their own investigations for a comprehensive understanding of each lot.
