At its London Interiors sale on August 10, Christie’s will show this Cloisonne Jardiniere, embellished with butterflies, foliage, and dragon, suitable for holding a lush fern or mossy orchids. Its contents would not likely match its cost, though, at an estimated $6,000 or more.

In August, a Chicago auction house will place the utensils used to autopsy Elvis Presley in 1977 on the block.

Together, they should achieve $10,000 in sales.
