Royal House Antiques

Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this one of a kind,custom made to order by a Polish Count, complete Asprey Green Crocodile leatherwith 24ct gold inlaid crown, desk suite

This is pretty much the most luxurious desk set ever made. Custom orderedin the early 90’s by a polish count for the princely sum of £17,000, in today’smoney that’s a surreal £41,114. The dealer I purchased it off managed theprobate for the sale so they saw all the original purchases prices. The Smythson’s24ct gold tipped paper which is included was £800 a pad!

This suite is the only green example in the world, it is embossed withthe Counts sypher which is a Crown very similar to the Rolex crown. The base ofeach piece is silk and finished with Asprey in gold

The condition is pretty much retail new so far as I can see, there maybe the odd age or transport related patina mark but I can’t see any

The gilt scissors and letter opener come in a wonderful case which isrubber lined so they never slip out, the scissors are also engraved for Asprey

IMPORT DUTY

Most countries charge some kind of import duty however almost all of ouritems won’t incur any charges as the items are exempt from tax due to the ageand materials used

For European deliveries the price you will be quoted will include allclearance documentation and any customs charges so there won’t be anyadditional fees

For international deliveries such as the United States there can be someimport duty to pay and or a clearance fee, I would estimate that 99% of alldeliveries clear customs without being stopped for either

All duties are the responsibility of the purchaser who is the importer,they can’t be covered by the seller or shipping agent or factored in withadditional retrospective discounts

RETURNS

Royal House Antiques offers a no quibble return policy if the item isnot as described, if there are any issues with the piece you will be refundedin full once the item has been returned and inspected within 14 days,alternatively if there is a small issue, we can discuss finding a mutualresolution that makes all parties happy

We don’t offer a sale on approval service which means you can purchasethe item, have it delivered and if you simply don’t like it, return it, thiscomes under change of mind or doesn’t fit. There is a lot of time, money andwork involved in transporting goods around the world, the costs incurred can bevast so my advice would be if you are unsure on a piece please ask as manyquestions as you like to make sure you understand everything before you buy, ifyou are still unsure then please either arrange a viewing in person or ifthat’s not possible then don’t buy from an online retailer, perhaps look for alocal gallery instead
