Rarity is how seldom something by France & Søn is sold at auction, compared with every other name we follow, based on sales in the last two years. It measures supply, not value.
Price trend
What France & Søn has sold for at auction, converted to a single piece in normal condition.
Based on a sample of 1,292 of 1,321 sales, spread evenly across the years. Each sale is normalised to a neutral single item — hammer price divided by empirically measured quantity and condition factors (a pair ≈ 1.41× a single, damaged ≈ 0.82×) — the same recipe as the Tupendan valuation engine. Trend is a Theil–Sen fit over quarterly medians; under ±5%/yr we call it stable.
