A quest for beauty, a passion of a lifetime For many decades, Colette Ghysels has taken us on a journey between land and sea, from North to South and East to West. Her wideranging and boundless interests have taken us from the sands of the Sahara to the heart of the equatorial forest, in Asia from Syria to Japan, and further to Oceania and the Americas. Colette’s taste for traveling was instilled by her parents, who were great world travelers. From her early childhood on, both parents initiated her to the arts, each in their own way. Her Armenian mother opened the doors of the Orient to her, with its magnificent carpets, textiles, and jewelry. On her fourteenth birthday, she received her first ethnic jewel, a fibula from the Maghreb that had caught her eye during a stay in Paris. With her father - a mining engineer in the Congo a century ago - she had special complicity. He would take her from an as early age as three, to the museums of Tervuren and Fine Arts in Brussels, where he made her discover the diversity of cultures from all over the world. The decisive beginning of her collection, unbeknownst to her at the time, started in Africa where Colette worked as a conference reporter for the CCTA/CSA, an international organization chaired by Claude Cheysson and Jacques Millot. It was in Madagascar that she bought a necklace made of solid silver pearls from the Androy, for which she sacrificed her plans to travel to Reunion. As it turned out, it was a necklace that was exceedingly rare.
After finishing her mission in Uganda, she received an invitation from Jean-Pierre Ghysels to join him in India. He would travel there from Brussels in 2CV, she left from Mombasa by boat. In Delhi, she met with the man who would be the love of her life. Together they traveled to Nepal, which had just opened its borders, and got married there. Upon their return in Brussels in 1960, the couple settled in Brussels, rue Marconi, where Jean-Pierre had his sculptor's studio. Colette could not fathom then that almost twenty years later she would organize exhibitions there to show the treasures she had collected during her numerous travels: from the antique market of Portobello to the gallery of Susie Montiel-Colmenares on King's Road in London, Colette discovered beautiful pieces wherever her road was leading her. Christianization and Islamization led many cultures to give up their ancestral traditions. This opened a new trade where European adventurers and African merchants quenched the thirst of collectors. Not only sculptures and masks, arrived in abundance from Africa, but also everyday objects and ethnic jewelry, which had been neglected or ignored until then. Some of this jewelry, such as bronze bracelets, was originally intended as currency, destined to be melted down. Collecting objects like these actually saved a number of beautiful artifacts, such as the kota bracelet included in this auction (lot 63).
At the time, young collec tors who were not wealthy but who had a keen eye and were eager to travel were able to build outstanding collec tions. Amongst those, Colette and Jean-Pierre Ghysels, who from the 1970s onwards multiplied their intercontinental travels. Beauty, authenticity, quality of execution, and a per fec t state of conser vation guided their choices. Connoisseur of a wide array of things, Colette collec ted over the years thousands of objec ts in a variety of fields. In 1977, the ever-suppor ting Jean-Pierre encouraged his wife to use his workshop as an exhibition space to organize annual shows where she could present the fruit of her tireless hunts for beautiful ar tworks and ar tifac ts. Quality was always at the hear t of her selec tions: classical or unusual, any beautifully craf ted objec t was of potential interest to Colette. The exceptional Amlash vase (lot 10) presented here is a per fec t illustration of this interest in both extraordinar y craf tsmanship and exceptional beauty of forms. She was drawn to the ingenuity and skills of craf tsmen, regardless of discipline or eras. As could be expec ted from a woman like Colette - for those who know her - nothing was lef t to chance in the exhibitions she organized. Ever y detail was thought through, ever y objec t was selec ted with care. She understood the ar t of revealing the beauty and diversity of ever yday objec ts and was able to communicate these aesthetic emotions. She opened the eyes of many a new collec tor and kindled the curiosity and interest of the more seasoned ones. Always eclec tic, Colet te might focus sometimes on one theme or culture, but alongside African ornaments, one would also find a statue, a mask, ceremonial weaponr y, ceramic s, Akan gold jewelr y, or a stunning headdress. Showing objec ts alongside each other pieces from the Indian subcontinent, minorities of southwest China and the Golden Triangle, the Philippine and Indonesian archipelagos - think of the rare Borneo armor (lot 60) made quite an impression.
The mingei arts of Japan also held a special place in her heart. In the auction, we find a wonderful fireman's costume (lot 90), ceramics, scholarly and tea ceremony objects (lot29), and a number of impressive ikebana flower baskets (lots 22, 56, 98 and 106). We also find Chinese furniture, including a bed (lot 118) and an armchair (lot 133) with an almost contemporary design. Textiles were still another field of her expertise. Amongst the lots illustrating this aspect of her insatiable curiosity we should mention an Ottoman pirpiri tunic (lot 66) from Albania in gold thread, a sumptuous abaya (lot 45), a man's coat from Syria, the Naga warrior shawls decorated with cowries (lots 18 and 117), and the lusciously embroidered dress reserved for the men of the Hausa or Yoruba social elite (lot 7). Other noteworthy examples of magnificent textiles from all over the world are the ndebele aprons from southern Africa (lots 42 ans 43), some pieces in "Kasai velvet" with its sophisticated compositions of geometric patterns (lots 35 and 89), tapa made of beaten and painted bark from the Fiji Islands (lot 58), and Aymara sacred clothing from Bolivia (lot 102). Regardless of the fact that it would take most people multiple lifetimes to assemble so many pieces of the so-called "minor arts", what strikes us in the first place with the pieces collected by Collette Ghysels, is that when chosen by a discerning eye, these pieces easily stand their ground next to the fine arts. Whether it be the work of weavers, goldsmiths, woodworkers, or potters, when made by master craftsmen, there is no such thing as "minor arts", and thanks to the expertise, passion, and discerning eye of Colette it can be shown to us this in all its richness and glory. The objects she collected and that found their way to museums all over the world, a series of meticulously designed publications focusing on unique subjects, and exhibition catalogs on ethnic jewelry from the five continents all bear witness to that sacred fire that has driven this tireless collector throughout her life and will hopefully inspire many future generations.

Ritual vessels like these were most likely used for pouring liquids during religious ceremonies and were found mainly in burial sites. Amlash pottery distinguishes itself by its extraordinary craftsmanship and unusual shapes that have a strikingly modern feel.

The linear engraved decorations to be found on this particular vessel make it an exceptionally refined example of Amlash ceramic art. A material analysis by Scantix, provided and executed by Dr. Marc Ghysels reveals the extreme thinness of this jug.

€ 3000 - 4000 Made in par ticular by Sema and Chang women, this cloth was draped over the shoulder of men as a sign of braver y. The embroidered cowrie circles would evoke the full moon, which was propitious for nighttime head-hunting expeditions; the stylized figure stands for the vic tims.

030. Ethiopian Processional Cross Ethiopia - 14th - 15th C. Copper, 27,2 cm Provenance: Colette Ghysels collec tion, Brussels
€ 10 000 - 15 000 This exceptionally well-preserved processional cross bears a close resemblance to the one belonging to the Smithsonian Museum of African Art (inv.2004-7-8). The way the central cross is surrounded by an intricate pattern of smaller crosses around a central shape is a striking common feature. The addition of a star-shaped pattern surrounding the open-worked central cross, and the more elaborately engraved details make the one presented here even more delicate and complex. The small crosses radiating from the center allude to the symbolic, regenerative properties of the cross. Processional crosses that follow this pattern also called "wheel" crosses, are typical for the province of Lasta, site of the churches of Lalibala.

They were used by of ficials to write notes during their audience with the Emperor. Hu tablets were handed out by designated doorkeepers upon entr y of the Imperial Palace and permitted the cour t of ficial to enter the restric ted areas.

Regular valiha are unadorned, but given their cultural and ceremonial impor tance, they could also be given as prestigious presents to notable people. Those valiha would be decorated, and as is the case in the one presented here, the elaborate adornments in ivor y testif y of the impor tance of the person it was destinated to.

077. Baule Gold Necklace with 18 Beads Ivor y Coast Gold, 71 cm around Provenance: Timothy F. Garrard, London Colette Ghysels collec tion, Brussels
€ 8000 - 10 000 The exquisite finesse of the gold beads in this necklace can only be found in older, 19th-centur y necklaces. The Baule used a lost wax casting technique, where waxed threads were arranged in intricate patterns of rows and spirals. The most prevalent Baule bead forms are basically simple and abstrac t: discs, rec tangles, tubes, and bicone forms. They are named according to their size or the arrangement of the wax threads forming the design. For instance, senze "setting sun", for large disc beads, and strala "bamboo door" for rec tangular beads. These forms are likely to be traced back to old Akan forms which were adopted by the Anyi and Baule in the 17th and 18th centuries. Most of ten they were worn by women and children, but sometimes they were also made for a chief and hung on strings before him on festive occasions. Similar necklaces can be found in the collec tion of the Barbier-Mueller Museum (a.o. inv.1034-233, 1034-192, 1034-218).

CONDITIONS OF SALE - NATIVE SPRL Taking part in auctions constitutes unconditional acceptance of these Conditions of Sale. 1. Auctions and state of the objects a) The objects at auction are put up for auction by Native on behalf and in the name of the person who has deposited them ("Vendor"). Adjudication is made in favor of the highest bidder in Euros acknowledged by Native at the time of the auction ("Buyer") and the Sales Contract between the depositor and the Buyer is concluded by this adjudication. The object being sold is released to the Buyer only against payment in cash or bank transfer. To be accepted as means of payment, cheques must be cleared by the bank on which they are drawn before the object auctioned can be released. b) Objects are put in the auction in the state in which they are found at the time of the auction. Subject to point 1c. below, any guarantee for material damage or legal damages is excluded. The objects are on display during the event. The descriptions shown in catalogs, advertisements, brochures or any other article or document issued by Native are given purely by way of illustration. They in no way commit the liability of Native. Consequently, Native guarantees neither the accuracy of the explanatory notes contained in the catalog, nor the origin, date, age, cultural background or provenance of the objects put up for auction. It is the depositor who is solely liable for the explanatory notes in the catalog. Native agrees to reproduce them in the catalog only in its capacity as agent for the depositor.
c) An auctioned object must be paid for within 7 days after the auction. If the Buyer remains in default on payment 30 days after the auction, any sum due at that time will, as of right and without any formal notification being necessary, be subject to interest on arrears of 10% per annum. Moreover, in the event of non-payment by the final deadline, any sum due will be increased as of right by a flat-rate indemnity of 15%, without prejudice to Native’s right to seek full reparation of the damage suffered. In addition, if the payment due by the Buyer does not take place or is not made in time, Native can, as it chooses and in the name of the depositor, either continue to demand that the sales contract be executed or, without being bound to set a fixed time, waive the right to require execution of the sales contract and claim damages for nonexecution or even renounce the contract. The Buyer is liable in respect of Native and the depositor for all damages resulting from non-payment or late payment. d) According to the law of 30 June 1994 on authors’ rights, the Buyer shall pay in addition to the hammer price an Artist Resale Right (droit de suite) of 4% on the part of the hammer price from 0 € to 50,000 €, of 3% on the part of the hammer price from 50,001 € to 200,000 €, of 1% on the part of the hammer price from 200,001 € to 350,000 €, of 0.5% on the part of the hammer price form 350,001 € to 500,000 € and of 0.25% for the last part of the hammer price above 500,001 €. e) The exporting of any object from Belgium and the importing into a third country may be subject to particular authorisations. The Buyer is responsible for obtaining all necessary export or import licenses. Refusal of these authorisations or any delays after they have been obtained will in no case be grounds for a cancellation of the sale or a delay in payment.
c) Native freely states that it is prepared to cancel the auction on behalf of the depositor and refund only the hammer price, commission and VAT if an object sold should prove, within 1 year from the date of the auction, to be a modern intentional fake. By modern intentional fake is to be understood a reproduction which it can be proved has been made with the intention of falsely deceiving others whether in respect of origin, date, age, cultural background or source, without this having been shown in the catalog.
3. Registration and attendance at the Sale
The condition for this refund is that the Buyer sends an immediate claim by registered letter to Native as soon as the defect has come to light and at the latest by 1 year from the date of the auction and that he immediately return the fake object in the same state as on the day of the auction and exempt of any third-party claim. The Buyer must provide proof that the object auctioned is a fake compared with the description in the catalog and that the object is identical to the item auctioned. Any other claim by the Buyer is excluded.
b) Bidders who are not personally known to Native are bound to give legitimate proof of identity before the beginning of the auction. Native reserves the right to request proof of the bidder’s solvency. If this latter document is not available, Native is authorised to demand the immediate payment of a cash deposit equal to 10% of the auction price or the lodging of a guarantee. If this deposit is not paid or guarantee lodged, Native is authorised on behalf of the depositor to cancel the auction.
d) Buyers must, at their own expense, come and collect the objects auctioned within 7 days from the end of the auction during opening times at Native, namely from Monday to Friday 10.00 to 13.00 and 14.00 to 17.30. If sufficient time is available, objects will be released after each session. In accordance with point 1, handover will be against payment in cash. During the abovementioned period, Native is liable for the loss, theft, damage or destruction of the objects auctioned and paid for, although only up to the amount of the price of the auction, commission and VAT. On the expiry of this period, Native’s liability ceases. If the objects auctioned are not withdrawn within 7 days, they will be stored at the expense and risk of the Buyer. e) Each Buyer is personally responsible for the item awarded to him at auction. Proof of powers of attorney may be required from persons acting as third-party representatives or as an organ of a corporate body. The representative is jointly and severally liable with the person represented for meeting all commitments. 2. Hammer price, commission, risk transfer, ownership transfer, payment, invoicing, VAT, importing and exporting a) In addition to the hammer price, the Buyer owes a supplement ("commission") on the hammer price. Commission is 20% of the hammer price. In case of bidding through an internet platform, an extra commission will be added by those. Commission for drouot.com is 1,5% on the hammer price, for liveauctioneers.com 3%. The Buyer must also pay Belgian VAT (21%) calculated only on the commission. For lots where the Vendor is a non-resident of the EU (lots indicated by ‡), the Buyer will pay an import tax of 6% in addition to the bid price plus legal costs. The amount of this tax will be reimbursed on presentation of proof of export outside the EEC. b) Ownership of the object auctioned passes to the Buyer once the hammer has come down finally. Until full payment of the hammer price, commission and VAT, Native reserves a right of retention and lien on all objects in its keeping. The release of the auctioned object to the Buyer is not made until after full payment of the hammer price, commission and VAT.
a) The submission of a bid or an absentee bid unconditionally and irrevocably binds the bidder. The bidder remains bound to his offer until this becomes the subject of a higher bid or is rejected by Native. Double bids become the subject of an immediate new call to bid; in cases where there is doubt, the senior auctioneer decides the matter by drawing lots.
c) Native is free to reject a bid without giving reasons. Similarly, it is within its rights to hold an auction without selling or withdraw objects from the auction. Native reserves the right to refuse any person access to its commercial premises or forbid any person from taking part in one of its auctions. d) Bids from interested parties who do not wish to attend the auction personally will be taken into consideration if they communicate such a wish in writing 24 hours before the start of the auction. Interested persons can bid by telephone if they have not announced their wishes in writing at least 24 hours before the start of the auction. Native accepts bids by telephone for lots whose lowest estimate reaches at least €1,000. Native disclaims all responsibility for offers that have not been taken into account as well as for bids made by telephone which may not have been taken into account. The rules set down in point 3b in respect of providing proof of identity and solvency also apply to persons bidding by telephone or in writing. For bidders who place their offer via the Internet, in other words an absentee bid, point 3b applies only in respect of solvency. 4. Miscellaneous The auction is held under the joint authority of a huissier de justice (Court Justice). Any liability on the part of Native arising from acts attributable to the huissier involved is excluded. b) The foregoing stipulations are an integral part of each individual sales contract concluded at sales by auction. Amendments to them are in no way binding unless Native has given its agreement to them in writing. c) Any dispute on the validity, interpretation and execution of these Conditions of Sale and any dispute on the conducting of the auctions will be subject to Belgian law, with the exception of (a) the stipulations of the Vienna Convention on international sales contracts and (b) the rules of referral to Belgian international private law. d) Only the courts and tribunals of Brussels are competent to rule on any disputes.

Native n’accepte de les reproduire dans le catalogue qu’en tant qu’intermédiaire de ce dernier. c) Native se déclare librement disposée à annuler l’adjudication au nom du déposant et à rembourser uniquement le prix de l’adjudication, la commission et la TVA, si un objet vendu devait s’avérer, dans un délai de 1 an à compter de la date de l’adjudication, être le résultat d’un faux intentionnel moderne. Il faut entendre par faux intentionnel moderne une reproduction dont il est prouvable qu’elle a été faite dans l’intention de tromper fallacieusement autrui, que ce soit en ce qui concerne l’origine, la date, l’âge, le cercle de culture ou la source, sans que cela ressorte du catalogue. La condition de ce remboursement est que l’Acheteur adresse une réclamation immédiate, sous pli recommandé adressé à Native, dès la découverte du vice et au plus tard dans un délai de 1 an à compter de la date de l’adjudication, et qu’il restitue immédiatement l’objet falsifié à Native dans le même état que le jour de l’adjudication et exempt de toute prétention de tiers. L’Acheteur doit fournir la preuve que l’objet adjugé est un faux par rapport à la description du catalogue et que l’objet est identique à la chose adjugée. Toute autre prétention de l’Acheteur est exclue. d) Les Acheteurs doivent venir chercher, à leurs propres frais, les objets adjugés dans les 7 jours qui suivent la clôture de la vente aux enchères, pendant l’horaire d’ouverture de Native, soit du lundi au vendredi de 10h00 à 13h00 et de 14h00 à 17h30. Si le temps à disposition est suffisant, les objets seront délivrés après chaque séance. Conformément au point 1., la remise a lieu contre paiement en espèces. Pendant le délai précité, Native est responsable de la perte, du vol, de l’endommagement ou de la destruction des objets adjugés et payés, à concurrence toutefois du montant du prix de l’adjudication, de la commission et de la TVA. À l’expiration de ce délai, la responsabilité de Native cesse. Si les objets adjugés ne sont pas retirés dans les 7 jours, ils seront entreposés aux frais et aux risques de l’Acheteur. e) Chaque Acheteur répond personnellement de l’adjudication qui lui a été faite. La preuve de pouvoirs de représentation peut être exigée de personnes qui agissent comme représentants pour le compte de tiers ou comme organe d’une personne morale. Le représentant répond solidairement avec le représenté de l’accomplissement de tous les engagements. 2. Prix de l’adjudication, commission, transfert des risques, transfert de la propriété, paiement, facturation, TVA, importation et exportation a) Outre le prix d’adjudication, l’Acheteur est débiteur d’un supplément ("commission") sur le prix d’adjudication. La commission est de 20% du prix d’adjudication. En cas d'enchère via une plateforme internet, une commission supplémentaire sera ajoutée par celle-ci. Pour drouot.com cette commission s'élève à 1,5% sur le prix marteau, pour liveauctioneers.com à 3% sur le prix marteau. L’acheteur doit également s’acquitter de la TVA belge (21%) calculée uniquement sur la commission. Pour les lots dont le vendeur est non-résident de l’ E.U (lots signalés par ‡) l’adjudicataire paiera une taxe importation de 6% en sus de l’adjudication, plus les frais légaux. Le montant de cette taxe sera remboursé sur présentation de la preuve d’exportation hors CEE. b) La propriété de l’objet adjugé passe à l’Acheteur dès l’adjudication. Jusqu’au complet paiement du prix de l’adjudication, de la commission et de la TVA, Native se réserve un droit de rétention et de gage sur tous les objets sous sa garde. La délivrance
En outre, si le paiement dû par l’Acheteur n’a pas lieu ou n’intervient pas à temps, Native peut, à son choix et au nom du déposant, soit continuer à exiger l’exécution du contrat de vente, soit sans être tenu d’impartir un délai renoncer au droit de demander l’exécution du contrat et réclamer des dommages et intérêts pour cause d’inexécution ou encore se départir du contrat. L’Acheteur est responsable vis-à-vis de Native et du déposant de tous les dommages découlant du non-paiement ou du paiement tardif. d) Conformément à la loi du 25 juin 1921 frappant d’un droit les ventes publiques d’œuvres d’art au profit des artistes et auteurs des œuvres vendues, l’acheteur devra payer en sus du prix de vente et pour les artistes un droit de suite qui s’élève à 4% pour autant que l’adjudication soit égale ou supérieure à 2.000 Euro. Le droit de suite s’éteint lorsque l’artiste est décédé depuis plus de 70 ans. e) L’exportation de tout objet hors de la Belgique et l’importation dans un pays tiers peuvent être sujettes à des autorisations particulières. L’Acheteur est responsable de l’obtention de toutes les autorisations requises à l’exportation ou à l’importation. Le refus de ces autorisations, ou tous retards consécutifs à leur obtention, ne justifiera en aucun cas l’annulation de la vente ni un retard de paiement. 3. Enregistrement et participation à la vente a) La remise d’une enchère ou d’un ordre d’achat " absentee bid ’ lie inconditionnellement et irrévocablement l’enchérisseur. L’enchérisseur demeure lié à son offre jusqu’à ce que celle-ci fasse l’objet d’une surenchère ou qu’elle soit écartée par Native. Les enchères doubles font l’objet d’un nouvel appel immédiat ; dans les cas douteux, la direction des enchères tranche par tirage au sort. b) Les enchérisseurs qui ne sont pas personnellement connus de Native sont tenus de se légitimer avant le début de la vente aux enchères. Native se réserve le droit d’exiger une preuve de la solvabilité de l’enchérisseur. Si ce dernier document fait défaut, Native est habilitée à exiger le paiement immédiat d’un acompte en espèces équivalent à 10% de l’adjudication ou le dépôt d’une garantie. À défaut du versement de cet acompte ou du dépôt de cette garantie, Native est autorisée au nom du déposant à annuler l’adjudication. c) Native est libre d’écarter une enchère sans indication des motifs. De même, elle est en droit d’adjuger sans vente ou de retirer des objets de la vente aux enchères. Native se réserve le droit de refuser à toute personne l’accès à ses locaux commerciaux ou d’interdire à toute personne de participer à l’une de ses ventes aux enchères. d) Les offres d’enchères émanant d’intéressés qui ne souhaitent pas assister personnellement à la vente aux enchères seront prises en considération par écrit jusqu’à 24 heures avant le début de la vente aux enchères. Les personnes intéressées peuvent enchérir par téléphone si elles se sont annoncées par écrit au minimum 24 heures avant le début des enchères. Native accepte les enchères par téléphone pour des lots dont l’estimation basse atteint au moins 1000 €. Native décline toute responsabilité pour les offres n’ayant pas été prises en considération ainsi que pour les enchères téléphoniques qui n’auraient pas été prises en compte. Les normes prévues au point 3b. concernant la légitimation et la preuve de la solvabilité s’appliquent également aux enchérisseurs par téléphone et par écrit. Pour les enchérisseurs, qui donnent leur offre via Internet dans le cadre d’un ordre d’achat (absentee bid), le point 3b. ne s’applique qu’en ce qui concerne la solvabilité. 4. Divers a) La vente aux enchères se déroule sous l’autorité conjointe d’un huissier de justice. Toute responsabilité de Native du fait d’actes imputables à l’huissier instrumentant est exclue. b) Les dispositions qui précèdent font intégralement partie de chaque contrat individuel de vente conclu à l’occasion des ventes aux enchères. Leurs modifications n’ont de portée obligatoire que si Native leur a donné son accord écrit. c) Tout litige relatif à la validité, l’interprétation et l’exécution des présentes conditions de vente et tout litige relatif au déroulement des enchères sera soumis au droit belge, à l’exception (a) des dispositions de la Convention de Vienne concernant les contrats de vente internationale et (b) des règles de renvoi du droit international privé belge. d) Seuls les cours et tribunaux de Bruxelles sont compétents pour connaître d’éventuels litiges.
VERKOOPVOORWAARDEN - NATIVE BVBA Het deelnemen aan het opbod veronderstelt de onvoorwaardelijke aanvaarding van onderhavige voorwaarden. 1. Opbod en staat van de voorwerpen a) De ter veiling aangeboden voorwerpen worden door Native geveild voor rekening en in naam van de persoon die ze hiervoor heeft afgeleverd ("verkoper’). De toewijzing gebeurt aan diegene die tijdens de veiling door Native als hoogste bieder in euro wordt erkend ("koper’) en geldt als verkoopovereenkomst tussen de verkoper en de koper. Het voorwerp van de verkoop wordt alleen aan de koper overhandigd tegen contante betaling of na bankoverschrijving. In geval van betaling per cheque dient de uitgeschreven cheque te worden bevestigd door de bank waarop hij getrokken wordt, alvorens het toegewezen voorwerp wordt overhandigd. b) De voorwerpen worden geveild in de staat waarin zij zich op het moment van de veiling bevinden. Onder voorbehoud van hierna vermeld punt 1c. is elke garantie voor materiële of juridische schade uitgesloten. De voorwerpen kunnen worden bezichtigd tijdens de tentoonstelling. De beschrijvingen in de catalogi, advertenties, brochures of andere geschriften afkomstig van Native hebben een louter indicatieve waarde en stellen Native geenszins aansprakelijk. Native biedt dus geen garantie met betrekking tot de juistheid van de beschrijvingen in de catalogus, de oorsprong, de datum, de leeftijd, de cultuur of de afkomst van de geveilde voorwerpen. Alleen de verkoper is aansprakelijk voor de in de catalogus opgenomen beschrijvingen. Native neemt deze beschrijvingen alleen in zijn catalogus op als tussenpersoon van de verkoper. c) Native verklaart zich bereid om de verkoop in naam van de verkoper te annuleren en de hamerprijs, de commissie en de btw terug te betalen, indien binnen 1 jaar na de verkoopdatum zou blijken dat een verkocht voorwerp het resultaat is van een opzettelijke moderne vervalsing. Onder opzettelijke moderne vervalsing verstaan wij een reproductie waarvan bewezen kan worden dat zij is gemaakt met het opzet een ander te bedriegen, hetzij met betrekking tot de oorsprong, hetzij op het vlak van de datum, de leeftijd, de cultuur of de bron, zonder dat dit duidelijk uit de catalogus blijkt. Voorwaarde voor deze terugbetaling is dat de koper onmiddellijk na de ontdekking van het gebrek en ten laatste binnen een termijn van 1 jaar te rekenen vanaf de datum van de verkoop aangetekend klacht bij Native indient, en dat hij het nagemaakte voorwerp onmiddellijk aan Native terugbezorgt in de staat waarin het zich op de dag van de verkoop bevond en vrij van elke aanspraak van derden. De koper moet het bewijs leveren dat het verkochte voorwerp een vervalsing is ten opzichte van de beschrijving in de catalogus en dat het voorwerp wel degelijk het verkochte voorwerp is. Elke andere vordering van de koper is uitgesloten. d) De koper dient op eigen kosten en binnen een termijn van 7 dagen na het afsluiten van de veiling de gekochte stukken af te halen. Dit kan tijdens de openingsuren van Native: van maandag t/m vrijdag tussen 10.00 en 13.00 uur en tussen 14.00 en 17.30 uur. Indien er voldoende tijd is, worden de voorwerpen na elke zitting overhandigd. Zoals bepaald in punt 1, worden de voorwerpen overhandigd tegen contante betaling. Tijdens de hierboven vermelde termijn is Native aansprakelijk voor verlies, diefstal, beschadiging of vernieling van de verkochte en betaalde goederen. Deze aansprakelijkheid beperkt zich tot maximaal het bedrag van de verkoop, de commissie en de btw. Na deze termijn eindigt de aansprakelijkheid van Native. Indien de verkochte voorwerpen niet zijn afgehaald binnen een termijn van 7 dagen, worden zij bewaard op kosten en voor risico van de koper. e) Elke koper staat persoonlijk in voor de verkoop die aan hem werd gedaan. Aan personen die handelen als vertegenwoordiger en voor rekening van derden of als een orgaan van een rechtspersoon, kan een bewijs van machtiging tot vertegenwoordiging worden geëist. De vertegenwoordiger is solidair verantwoordelijk met de vertegenwoordigde voor het naleven van alle verplichtingen. 2. Hamerprijs, commissie, risico-overdracht, eigendomsoverdracht, betaling, facturatie, btw, import en export a) Naast de prijs van de verkoop is de koper ook een toeslag ("commissie’) op de hamerprijs verschuldigd. De commissie bedraagt 20 % van de hamerprijs. Indien geboden wordt via een internet platform zal een extra commissie aangerekend worden door deze. Voor drouot.com bedraagt deze commissie 1,5 % op de hamerprijs, voor liveauctioneers.com 3%. De koper is eveneens de Belgische btw (21 %) op de commissie verschuldigd. Voor kavels waarvan de verkoper niet-ingezetene is van de E.U. (kavels aangeduid met ‡) betaalt de koper een invoertaks van 6 % op de hamerprijs, plus de wettelijke kosten. Het bedrag van deze taks wordt terugbetaald op vertoon van het bewijs van export buiten de E.E.G. b) De eigendom van het verkochte voorwerp gaat over op de koper vanaf het ogenblik van de verkoop. Tot op het ogenblik van de volledige betaling van de hamerprijs, de commissie
en de btw, kan Native pandrecht en retentierecht inroepen voor de stukken die het in bewaring heeft. Het overhandigen van het aan de koper verkochte voorwerp vindt pas plaats na volledige betaling van de hamerprijs, de commissie en de btw. c) Een verkocht voorwerp moet binnen de 7 dagen na sluiting van de veiling betaald zijn. Indien de koper 30 dagen na de verkoop nalaat te betalen, worden alle bedragen die op dat ogenblik verschuldigd zijn van rechtswege en zonder voorafgaande ingebrekestelling verhoogd met een verwijlinterest van 10 % per jaar. Bij niet-betaling op de vervaldag wordt elk verschuldigd bedrag bovendien van rechtswege verhoogd met een vaste vergoeding van 15 %, ongeacht het recht van Native om de volledige vergoeding van de geleden schade te eisen. Indien de door de koper verschuldigde betaling niet of niet tijdig plaatsvindt, kan Native bovendien naar eigen keuze en in naam van de verkoper hetzij de uitvoering van de verkoopovereenkomst eisen, hetzij - zonder daarom gehouden te zijn tot het toekennen van een termijn - afstand doen van het recht om uitvoering van de verkoopovereenkomst te eisen en schadevergoeding vragen voor niet-naleving van het contract, hetzij afzien van het contract. De koper is aansprakelijk ten opzichte van Native en de verkoper voor alle schade ingevolge niet-betaling of laattijdige betaling. d) Overeenkomstig de wet van 25 juni 1921, die de openbare verkopingen van kunstwerken ten voordele van de artiesten en auteurs der verkochte werken met een recht bezwaart, zal de koper bovenop de koopprijs en voor de artiesten een volgrecht betalen van 4% indien de toewijzingsprijs gelijk of hoger is dan 2.000 Euro. Het volgrecht dooft uit wanneer de artiest sedert meer dan 70 jaar is overleden e) Voor export van een voorwerp buiten België en import in een ander land kunnen bijzondere vergunningen vereist zijn. De koper is verantwoordelijk voor het verkrijgen van alle vereiste export- of importvergunningen. Niet-toekenning of vertraging door de laattijdige toekenning van de nodige vergunning vormt geen geldige reden voor annulatie van de verkoop of uitstel van betaling. 3. Inschrijving en deelname aan de verkoop a) Het uitbrengen van een bod of het doorgeven van een aankooporder "absentee bid’ is onvoorwaardelijk en onherroepelijk bindend voor de bieder. De bieder blijft gebonden door zijn bod tot er een hoger bod gedaan wordt of het bod door Native verworpen wordt. In geval van een dubbel bod wordt onmiddellijk opnieuw afgeroepen; bij twijfel beslist de directie van de veiling door loting. b) Bieders die niet persoonlijk bij Native bekend zijn, dienen zich bij aanvang van de veiling te legitimeren. Native behoudt zich het recht voor een bewijs van kredietwaardigheid van de bieder te vragen. Indien dit document niet kan worden voorgelegd, is Native gemachtigd onmiddellijk betaling van een contant voorschot van 10 % van de toewijzing of een borg te eisen. Bij afwezigheid van voorschot of borg is Native gemachtigd om de verkoop in naam van de verkoper te annuleren. c) Native mag naar eigen inzicht een bod verwerpen zonder verklaring van zijn beslissing. Bovendien heeft Native het recht om voorwerpen te gunnen zonder verkoop of uit de veiling terug te trekken. Native behoudt zich het recht voor aan personen toegang tot de handelslokalen of deelname aan de veiling te weigeren. d) Personen die niet persoonlijk aan de veiling wensen deel te nemen, kunnen hun bod schriftelijk uitbrengen tot 24 uur voor de aanvang van de veiling. Ook telefonisch bieden is mogelijk, indien de telefonische bieder zich ten minste 24 uur voor de aanvang van de veiling schriftelijk heeft aangemeld. Native aanvaardt telefonische biedingen voor kavels waarvan de waarde op minstens 1000 euro is geschat. Native weigert elke aansprakelijkheid voor biedingen die niet in aanmerking zijn genomen of indien geen rekening werd gehouden met een telefonisch bod. De criteria vermeld in punt 3b met betrekking tot de legitimatie en het bewijs van kredietwaardigheid zijn ook van toepassing voor personen die hun bod per telefoon of schriftelijk uitbrengen. Voor bieders die hun bod via de website uitbrengen in het kader van een aankooporder (absentee bid), geldt alleen de vermelding in punt 3b met betrekking tot de kredietwaardigheid. 4. Varia a) De veiling vindt plaats onder medetoezicht van een deurwaarder. Native weigert elke aansprakelijkheid met betrekking tot daden die toe te schrijven zijn aan de instrumenterende deurwaarder. b) Voormelde bepalingen maken integraal deel uit van elk individueel verkoopcontract dat ter gelegenheid van een veiling gesloten wordt. Wijzigingen aan deze voorwaarden zijn slechts bindend indien Native zich hiermee schriftelijk akkoord heeft verklaard. c) Voor geschillen over de geldigheid, interpretatie en uitvoering van onderhavige verkoopvoorwaarden en het verloop van de veiling, is het Belgische recht van toepassing, met uitzondering van (a) de bepalingen van de Conventie van Wenen met betrekking tot internationale verkoopovereenkomsten en (b) de regels die verwijzen naar het Belgische Internationale Privaatrecht. d) In geval van geschil zijn alleen de rechtbanken van Brussel bevoegd.
