In my role as a Registrar looking after an extensive and varied collection I have found being able to call on Colin’s expertise invaluable.
A DAUNTING ASPECT OF COLLECTING CAN BE DISPOSAL AND SALE.
COLLECTORS ARE RARELY SELLERS, AND AS AN ITEM CAN ONLY BE SOLD ONCE IT IS IMPERATIVE TO GET IT RIGHT AND OUR IMPARTIAL ADVICE IN SELLING, WHETHER THROUGH AUCTION, PRIVATE SALE OR EVEN SELLING A COLLECTION EN MASS AS SINGLE TRANSACTION HAS HELPED MANY COLLECTORS.
Although always looking to expand our stock and source objects for clients we are also happy to take an advisory role in the sale of single items to complete collections.
We can advise on the pitfalls and benefits of the many varied options available to the seller. In many cases we are chosen as the agent taking the sale forward in close negotiation with collector and eventual owner. This offers a degree of removal for the collector during what some find a difficult experience, while they still remain in the driving seat.
With a proven track record in placing important single objects or whole collections we fully understand each transaction is as unique as the objects themselves and finding the best solution and outcome for the client is key. We relish this opportunity to discuss and plan the future of such pieces. Whether the outcome be auction, outright sale or placing within an institutional collection we are placed to advise and negotiate to the best result of the collection.
