Question

The little Chinese statue was the next item to come under the auctioneer's hammer. Lot 103 caused those quiet murmurings that always precede the sale of a
masterpiece. The auctioneer's assistant held up the delicate piece of ivory for the packed audience to admire while the auctioneer glanced around the room to
be sure he knew where the serious bidders were seated. I studied my catalogue and read the detailed description of the piece, and what was known of its
history.

word.
