I reckon the edition size of these bottles is huge. I think for something to be defined as limited the edition size should have to be stated.

Yeah it’s making me want to panic buy

[Art for Love 1]

edition size is 1,000

[tonys]

I'm torn - if I drink the contents, will it still retain its value?

I’ve not seen that figure quoted anywhere. Where did you see it?

floor manager at selfridges told me as she checked it.

[JAlternatión]

No promo code, but you can usually get a shedload of air miles at Selfridges using Virgin or BA referral pages. Worth mentioning that Art republic is often on them as well (see also Quidco)

[Woodey1001]

I'm going to buy this but I know it will end up just getting drunk, randomly one night. 🙄

[macstreet]

1400 bottles have already been sold in Japan

1000 bottles for Selfridge only or for the UK

don't know how many bottles are sold in the US and any other countries

Way lower than a Banksy print run then

For anyone with a Halifax current account who's thinking of buying.... Check your cashback offers.... Selfridges is on mine. I get 10% cashback...when paying from that account.

[Lord Lucas Roham]

Sitting on Selfridges... no flip. Bad Champagne. Will give it a miss.

[rogerwu99]

I'm in NYC and got a few bottles delivered last week for hopefully some sort of celebration next week.

did you get them through Reservebar?

yes! they look great ... i think the price is actually in line with the 2012 vintage and the kusama box is icing

[Love Is In The Air]

IMHO Box is v nice if you are Kusama fan, has a kinda revolving wheel the bottle sits on inside.

Will look nice on display and then will maybe drink the champagne on a special occasion ; )

I’m hearing this is possibly a 12,000 or so “limited edition” worldwide.

Have gone onto official Veuve website and looks like Selfridges will stock in the UK in November. The RRP is £150, I think about £30 mark up on bog standard bottle.
Anyone have any idea how many of these being made? Presume it will be thousands but would be keen to get a couple if I can as have friends who are Yayoi fans and this would be a great gift.

Cheers to inknart for the original post.

Depends on how long the lockdown lasts

sold out !

[iceman81]

I called Selfridges to ask if they would restock but they weren't very helpful and just told me to keep checking the website in case they would restock... She didn't even look up the item I was talking about

[iceman81]

They are still available in France for 190 euro + shipping
www.millesima.fr/veuve-clicquot-la-grande-dame-2012-yayoi-kusama.html

If you go to the veuve website and select France as country you get 4 shops that sell them

[Love Is In The Air]

If any Kusama fans in and around London are still looking for these PM me. Looks like I can get a case of six from Veuve and I would like to get some bottles for Xmas gifts. I would be happy to let a couple of go if members don't mind paying RRP and then splitting postage cost with me as will save me few quid.

On a side note, if anyone is thinking of cracking this open at Christmas, I am told it will taste good but will be a lot better in 5 years or more. Cheers

[grief]

Anybody knows where this is still instock in the EU?

[LJCal]

It will hammer for above this for sure, it's small but still worth £18-22k

Could someone give me some advice. I have wanted a Kusama for years, however they are always out of my price range. There is one in this auction and it is currently 11k (still out of my price range), but Isn't that cheap for a Kusama Pumpkin? 

Does anyone know what the differences are regarding the Kusama pumpkins and which is most/least popular, thanks.

On a side note, that Anish Kapoor looks cheap compared to the one at Tate Ward last week for 2k!
