The Golden Sieve
Object ID 11611

About

We deposit gold on objects with history in previous markets. The gold transforms the object into a direct form of currency. It shifts the role of the object from use-value to exchange value. At the same time, because the deposit sits upon a historical object, it embeds history into currency; allowing meaning to remain embedded in the flow of valuations.

You can purchase an option on this object before open bidding begins, which allows you to bid on it, during open bidding. There will only be one owner per object: the winning bidder. There are multiple objects within a given theme or story, (such as The Golden Sieve). Owners of objects can barter and exchange objects with other owners within the same series, while the theme is still active.
