How to estimate Asian art objects?
In an estimation exercise, the date of the Asian art object is a fundamental datum to take into account. Some works produced in specific periods are highly refined and are, in fact, highly prized. Nevertheless, paying attention to a few general elements can help determine a first price range, including provenance, subject matter, state of conservation of paintings (if they are paintings), age and authenticity. In general, the client receives an objective, non-binding and confidential estimate within 48 hours, based on the results of auctions of similar objects.
Auction or private sale of art objects
The private sale allows a cash purchase of one’s works of art at market price. Public auctions are organised either by notaries or bailiffs, or by professional operators.
