Auction Consignment Services
We closely monitor trends and developments in the art auction market. Taking into account the characteristics and regional strengths of various auction houses, we carefully select the most suitable platform for each artwork. Our goal is to maximize value for our clients by offering reliable valuations backed by up-to-date market insights.
STEP.1
General Art Advisory
We offer comprehensive consignment advisory services tailored to the nature of each artwork and the client’s needs. This includes guidance on selecting the most suitable auction house, valuation and market analysis, an overview of the consignment process, assistance with documentation, coordination of transport and insurance, tax consultation, and post-sale support.
STEP.2
Artwork Appraisal (Free Preliminary Valuation)
Based on the information provided by the client, we offer a provisional valuation of the artwork at no charge. We will also recommend the most suitable auction strategy or provide alternative suggestions tailored to your needs.

Artwork Handling & Valuation Process
Clients may schedule an appointment for an on-site visit or bring their artwork directly to our gallery for in-person appraisal. After assessing the condition, provenance, and other relevant details of the piece, we will provide a professional valuation accordingly.

Consignment Agreement
Based on the appraised value, we will discuss important details such as the estimated sale price and reserve price to be listed in the auction catalogue. Upon the client's agreement to our consignment terms, including commission and related service fees, a preliminary agreement will be signed.
For artworks requiring authentication, we can assist in arranging professional appraisal and certification on the client's behalf.
