Wynn pays $12.8 million for Chinese vases

American casino mogul Steve Wynn paid US$12.8 million for four eighteenth century Chinese vases at a Christie’s auction in London on Thursday.

The vases will be used to decorate the upcoming Wynn Resorts Macau, set to open on the Cotai Strip in 2015.

“We are delighted to be able to return these extraordinary examples of Chinese culture to the People’s Republic of China,” Steve Wynn said.
