PARIS (AP) - A Paris auction of art belonging to Japanese fashion designer Kenzo Takada has netted $2.63 million.

Auctioneer Claude Aguttes said Wednesday that 75 percent of the sale's 1,100 items were sold.

Kenzo decided to part with the collection, acquired over the past two decades, when he sold his Paris mansion to move into a smaller Left Bank apartment.

The collection included a rich variety of Eastern and Western art, from bronze Buddhas to Hopi Kachina dolls from the American southwest. An 8th-century Buddha sculpture from Burma sold for $88,575, while the Kachinas fetched $14,115.

Some of the auction's lots didn't sell, however, including a set of 16th-century red lacquerwear from a Japanese monastery.
