Record-Breaking Persian Rug With a pre-auction estimate of $5 to $7 million, this antique rug far exceeded sale expectations. This was one of the important carpets from the William Andrews Clark estate sold at auction in 2013. The final hammer-down price, including buyer's premium, was the amazing sum of $33.76 million. The rug was described by Sotheby's as follows: a Sickle-Leaf, vine scroll and palmette 'Vase'-technique carpet, probably Kirman, Southeast Persia. Condition and rarity played a part in bringing this record-breaking sum. #info #EverythingsInfo
