The object caught his eye
That day, she received Jordan, who aspires to become an antique dealer. The young man came to present an old compact dating from the mid-20th century signed Line Vautrin. The latter’s creations, jewelry or decorative objects, are rather popular with collectors.
It was Marylou Combalier, auctioneer, who was responsible for estimating the find. But obviously, the little object caught Julia Vignali’s eye. The presenter did not hesitate to grab it and manipulate it until she opened it.
She got caught for her mistake
It was at this moment that a little powder escaped from the compact before the eyes of its owner. The expert then took back the clumsy girl and said: “Be careful! There is some powder left. » Rather embarrassed, Thomas Sotto’s former colleague noticed: “There is a little bit of powder…”. Before asking Marylou Combalier: “Isn’t it worth less?!”
Fortunately for her, the auctioneer reassured her. The object has not lost its value even if the powder inside dates from the last century. The powder compact also sold quite well. It was Adeline Jaquet, one of the buyers of the show who finally acquired the object for 850 euros when it had been estimated at 500 euros. More fear than harm for Julia Vignali.
