Zeiss Ikon Cocarette Luxus III 522/17
The Zeiss Ikon Cocarette Luxus III 522/17 is a folding roll-film camera produced by the German manufacturer Zeiss Ikon. It belongs to the early 20th-century Cocarette folding family, positioned at the upper end of the range as a Luxus (deluxe) model.
Auction data for the Cocarette Luxus III 522/17 is very thin: a single UK saleroom record from 2004 shows a hammer price of £104, and that figure remains the only documented data point we can cite today. Because this is a wholesale auction result rather than a dealer asking price, retail values for clean working examples are typically higher, and condition of the bellows, leather and brightwork drives most of the spread in what this camera sells for.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Zeiss Ikon Cocarette Luxus III 522/17 worth today?
Public auction evidence is limited to a single UK hammer result of £104, so any current value estimate carries significant uncertainty and depends heavily on cosmetic and mechanical condition.
How much does a Cocarette Luxus III 522/17 sell for at auction?
The only verified UK auction price on record is £104 hammer, achieved in 2004; more recent comparable sales would be needed to establish a reliable price range.
Is the Cocarette Luxus III 522/17 a rare camera?
It appears infrequently in UK auction listings, which is why sales-history data is sparse and individual results can vary widely from the one recorded figure.
