Looking to meet the suggestions that have been presented to us, in order to begin our auctions sooner – so that we can also finish sooner – we have decided to revise our traditional schedule.Therefore, the auction sessions (which until now began at 21:30) are to begin, from now on, at 19:30.

Looking forward to have the pleasure to welcome you at our auction, our exhibition or our website www.cml.pt,

Yours sincerely,
