Holly’s International (HK) is set to host their first-ever auction in the city later this month from 25–27 May at the Grand Ballroom of the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong, with an expansive array of lots on offer. Premium items include Chinese classical paintings and calligraphy, modern and contemporary art, Chinese ceramics, porcelain and jade, as well as jewellery and watches, which will be sold over the course of nine different sessions.
While this will be Holly’s International (HK)’s first showing in Hong Kong, the international auction company’s team comprises professionals from across the globe and has been operating in southern China for over 25 years. The international organisation prides itself in its ability to create a centre for Asian and Western scholars and art, while ensuring collectors have the opportunity to take home true masterpieces.
Among the impressive collection, perhaps one of the most unique lots is a series of 12 print spray canvases that have been painted on by the late American comic book writer, editor, publisher and producer, Stan Lee. Marvel fans will surely be delighted with the series as it includes covers from vintage Captain America, Spiderman and The Hulk issues, and more, all of which have been personally autographed by Lee.
Meanwhile, Holly’s department of jewellery and watches has selected a series of luxurious gems and precious stones for the exhibition, including a number of jade objects crafted from a rare Myanmar jade which was discovered in 2014 and weighed a whopping 233kg. Those with jewellery aficionados will also want to keep their sights set on the sapphires and rubies that will go under the hammer next week.
