賺翻! 10英鎊購入的古董花瓶最終賣出6萬英鎊!

A rare Chinese vase, bought for 10 pounds at a Hampshire car boot sale, has been sold for more than 60,000 pounds.

在新罕布什爾州跳蚤市場以10英鎊買入的一箇中國稀有花瓶，日前竟然賣出了超過60000英鎊的高價。

The enamel "two quails" vase, is thought to have been made at Beijing's Imperial Palace at least 220 years ago.

這件繪有“兩隻鵪鶉”的琺琅花瓶被認爲是在北京故宮製作的，距今至少有220年了。

Auctioneers Woolley And Wallis said the owner only realised its true value after he put it on eBay.

拍賣商伍利·沃利斯表示，賣家在把這件花瓶放到eBay上之後才意識到了它的真正價值。

It had been estimated as being worth up to 30,000 pounds, but sold at auction in Salisbury for 61,000 pounds, including the buyer's premium.

拍賣前這件花瓶的估值高達30000英鎊，但是最終在索爾茲伯裏的拍賣會上賣出了61000英鎊的高價（其中包括了買方的溢價）。

The seller, who did not wish to be identified, picked up the vase at a car boot sale near Lymington.

賣家並不願意透露身份，據稱他是在利明頓附近的一個汽車跳蚤市場上相中了這個花瓶。

When eBay bidding reached 10,000 pounds he withdrew it and took it for a valuation.

當eBay上的出價達到10000英鎊之後，他將花瓶下了架，然後拿去估值。

Woolley And Wallis Asian art expert John Axford confirmed the vase bore the four-character Qianlong mark - the sixth emperor of the Qing dynasty - and would have been made by Imperial command in the palace workshop between 1736 and 1795.

伍利·沃利斯拍賣會亞洲藝術專家約翰·阿克斯福德證實，這件花瓶上留有清朝第六任皇帝乾隆的四個題字，並且應該是按照朝廷命令在宮裏的作坊中製作的，時間大約在1736年至1795年。

He said it had turned out to be an "excellent investment".

他表示，這件花瓶是一個“非常優秀的投資”。
