Acquired from a European private collection in 1980.
-The piece comes with a certificate of authenticity and an export license (European Union passport).
IMPORTANT: Due to new laws governing the export of archaeological objects, we have decided to NO LONGER sell to the following countries outside Europe: SWITZERLAND & the UNITED STATES of AMERICA.
For other destinations outside Europe, all our items will be shipped once a definitive export license has been obtained from the Spanish Ministry of Culture. Please note that this process may take between 4 and 8 weeks. Under Spanish law, items sent outside the European Union are subject to export taxes. These taxes will be added to the invoice at the buyer's expense. Export fees are calculated on the final auction price. The tax rate is not applied directly to the total value of the item being exported; instead, the following rates apply to each price bracket:
Up to 6,000 euros: 5%. / From 6,001 to 60,000 euros: 10%.
Please note that shipping to distant destinations (Asia, the Middle East, etc.) will incur an additional cost.
