A party seeking the nullity of a sale for alleged error regarding the essential qualities of the object sold must demonstrate that the error was mutual and concerned a quality that was the primary reason for entering the contract, as the court held that a subjective appreciation of the value or utility of the object, even if mistaken, does not generally constitute a legally relevant error sufficient to void the agreement unless that specific quality was expressly agreed upon as essential by both parties.
