The BNZ art collection that went under the hammer at Webb's sold better than predicted.

Of the 50 pieces up for grabs in round one, it was a white glove sale meaning they all went - and a lot of them for over their expected value at record sale prices.

Overall 13.5 million dollars was forked out for the best pieces.

Director of Art at Webb's auction house Charles Ninow joins me now.
