Will do, but just want =o make sure I understand Mr. Epstein's priorities. Is it most =mportant that he sells the desk by the end of the year or would he =ather wait if there is a better sale or opportunity in early 2018 for =im to realize a potentially higher price?

We have a single owner =ollection sale this October of largely French furniture which includes = similar desk. It is by a different maker but the form and decoration =ill appeal to the same client base. The reception and interest on =hat desk will be a good barometer and also could flush out new =rospective buyers for Mr. Epstein's desk for us to pursue for =otential private sale.

The head of the Paris =urniture department will be here in New York next week and I will speak =o him about his thoughts of offering the desk either there or in =ondon.

I am happy to discuss =hat with my European colleagues. I know some are currently on holiday =o I may not be able to get an immediate response.

We have a sale this October in New York =ut it has more of a concentration of English furniture. If we were to =ell the desk in New York, I'd rather wait until we had a critical mass =f good French furniture so that Mr Epstein's desk would get the best =xposure.

Still working on it but everything really slows down in July =nd August with clients and colleagues on vacation, particularly in =urope. However, I wanted to reassure you that it is still very much on =y mind.
