Purveyors of 19th & 20th c.

Our offerings are always changing. (we'll begin posting our selection soon!) Contact us to let us know what you're looking for.

Collections Management/Appraisals: our extensive knowledge of Fine Art and Design History enables us to examine collections of contemporary or antique fine art, to assess values and conditions, and to document our findings in a database for collectors. Our extensive network of colleagues in the field of Art & Antiques enables us to link our clients to painting, textile, or works on paper conservators, or to crating, storage, shipping, and installation experts.
