No. Our Marketplace is an online platform from which galleries may display their collections, but we are neither art specialists nor agents working for a commission. Our aim is to enable collectors and galleries to immediately connect and correspond with one another. Indeed, the gallery owners hosted on our Marketplace cherish the opportunity of sharing their expertise with collectors. They take pride in discussing a work in detail, relating the object's history while establishing its beauty and authenticity from the research they have conducted. Only an established gallery can provide potential buyers with the guarantee that their object of desire fully meets the standards of fine art.

We therefore suggest that you correspond directly with the gallery to receive detailed information on the object's history, condition, authenticity … and price. Only they can provide you with reliable information on the value of an item that has caught your eye.
