A public auction gives an entrusted item optimum visibility on the fine art and collectables market. The aim is to present this exceptional item to as many connoisseurs, collectors and fine art market professionals as possible, so that they can compete with each other in the brief, intense moment that the auction represents.

Using our services is therefore an excellent way of selling your goods, as you benefit from our expertise in identifying the nature and value of your items as accurately as possible, and then selling them advantageously thanks to the competitive bidding mechanism.

For each auction, we advertise widely in dedicated foreign publications, specialist journals and leading websites. In addition, we can count on a loyal clientele of national and international collectors, representing more than 800 mailings of paper catalogues and around 9,500 e-mails interested in our newsletters. 

We have storage facilities specially dedicated to our various specialities, guaranteeing security and optimum storage conditions for the goods entrusted to us.

Our auction house is remunerated by a commission on the auction price. The seller's interest and that of the auction house are therefore linked: to achieve the highest possible bidding level, reflecting the current art market. 

If you wish to entrust us with one or more goods for sale, we will carry out valuations by email for an initial approach, then on site or at your home in order to refine our estimates of the good in situ. This valuation is carried out free of charge, provided that you entrust us with the item(s) for sale. 

Private sale

Exceptionally, several goods may be sold by private treaty at the request of the seller, who wishes to dispose of a item without including it in a public auction. In this case, we can contact potential buyers directly and offer the item for sale.
The transaction is not public, and the seller enjoys absolute discretion and confidentiality.

In this context, our role is to contact potential buyers. Here again, the interest of the seller and that of the auctioneer are the same: to achieve a high level of sales corresponding to the value of the good.
