Thus, two aficionados increased the price for Bodil Kjaer's elegant writing desk, 1959, famous for its appearance in two James Bond movies, from €15,000 to €23,000. A German collector secured himself Tapio Wirkkala's 'TW 9' bowl, 1954, for its lower estimate of €9,000. The eleven-partite 'PK 111' screen by Poul Kjaerholm, 1956 will go back to its designer's Danish home country for €8,000. Gaudy glass objects were sought after as well, Oiva Toikka's 'Bird' from the 1960s changed hands for €2,800.
