Christie’s sale of Fine Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art yesterday totaled $10.9 million, highlighted by a 14th-century blue-and-white vase that sold for $2 million. The sale and two others held yesterday helped Christie’s to a single-day total of $20.1 million, the highest ever amount for a series of Chinese art sales in New York, according to the house. Today, Sotheby’s hopes to bring in between $14.5 million and $20 million during its Chinese art sales.
