Additional information

• SNUFF BOTTLE STOPPER DISCLAIMER
  Please note that snuff bottle stoppers are not included in any snuff bottle lots or in the purchase price of such a lot hereunder, regardless of whether the snuff bottle lot is illustrated with one or more stoppers. While Bonhams makes reasonable efforts to ensure that a stopper illustrated or exhibited with a snuff bottle lot accompanies the lot upon collection or release, it accepts no liability for not doing so or for damage or for loss to stoppers during storage or shipment. In addition, if a snuff bottle lot is exhibited or purchased by a buyer outside of the United States, Bonhams may remove any stopper accompanying a lot that contains restricted materials.

  NO GUARANTEE OF AUTHENTICITY FOR CHINESE PAINTINGS
  Current scholarship in the fields of Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy does not permit unqualified statements as to Authorship or date of execution. The limited right of recession does not apply to Chinese paintings contained in the Conditions of Sale. Nonetheless, if within twenty-one days of the sale of any such lot, the original purchaser gives written notice to Bonhams that the lot is a forgery and within fourteen days after giving such notice, the original purchaser returns the lot to us in the same condition as at the time of sale and demonstrates to our satisfaction that the lot is forgery, Bonhams will rescind the sale and refund the purchase price received. For this purpose a 'forgery' is defined as a work created with the intent to deceive.

  LOTS IN THE Catalogue WITH A "T" NEXT TO THE LOT NUMBER CONTAIN A US IMPORT TARIFF
  Please note that lots with a "T" next to the lot number are subject to an import tariff of 7.5%. The buyer will be required to pay the import tariff, which is included in the purchase price, along with sales tax, if applicable. The amount of the import tariff due is a percentage of the value declared upon entry into the United States (it is not based on the final bid price). Bidders interested in "T" lots should contact Bonhams prior to the sale to determine the amount of the import tariff.
