There are only four days left until Sotheby’s new auction begins in Paris.
This time the auction house will present a collection of Yolanda Eleta de Fierro, from her Madrid residence, including her dazzling jewelry.
Why this collection is so unique
Sotheby’s notes that this auction should be an epitome of beauty and charm:
A stage of beauty, created by a lady of fabulous allure and elegance, this house was a warm family home and the setting of many glamorous social gatherings. In the true cosmopolitan spirit of the celebrated decorating firm Maison Jansen, the collection put together in this opulent mansion in the heart of the Spanish capital, reflects D. Yolandaβs international upbringing and education.
