I couldn't be happier!
Fantastic experience purchasing from this prestigious company. The fine art I received was most impressive in person, exceeding pics and description.

Great auction experience from start to finish!
Not only was the Tiffany vase stunning but the auction itself was very well run and they made shipping very easy unlike some high-end auction houses. Vase arrived quickly and well packed.
