We are proud to present our Fine Art Auction, featuring distinguished Old Masters including Adriaen van de Velde, alongside later artist like Lesser Uri. Among the Israeli Art the auction features rare early works by Puchadze and estate-fresh pieces by Shmuel Charuvi. Complementing the art is a refined capsule collection of Cartier jewelry and iconic luxury handbags—including Chanel—acquired in Paris approximately 20 years ago and impeccably preserved. A unique opportunity for collectors of both art and elegance.
