Why Sell With Us
Expertise
With over 30 years of experience in decorative arts—including American art pottery, European ceramics, fine art, glass, jewelry, and collectibles—our team understands how to present important objects to the market. We professionally photograph, research, and catalog each item while crafting compelling descriptions that highlight rarity, condition, and collector appeal. Combined with strategic marketing and targeted promotion, this expertise helps attract serious buyers, generate strong interest, and encourage competitive bidding to achieve the best possible auction results.
Exposure
Your pieces receive exceptional global exposure through our state-of-the-art bidding platform and the world’s leading auction marketplaces, including LiveAuctioneers, Invaluable, Bidsquare, HiBid, and other major auction networks. Items are also promoted through our established retail site JustArtPottery.com, search engines, targeted email campaigns to our active newsletter subscriber base, and extensive social media marketing. This multi-platform strategy connects your property with a large audience of serious collectors and qualified buyers, helping generate competitive bidding and strong auction results.
Effortless and Streamlined Service
Our team guides you through every step required to successfully sell on auction, ensuring your items are properly presented to the right buyers. Our team handles professional photography, cataloging, marketing, buyer communication, and auction management on your behalf. After the sale, our shipping team carefully packs and ships items to buyers worldwide, ensuring a smooth experience for bidders and stronger auction performance. From the initial listing to final settlement, we manage every detail allowing you to simply receive the proceeds once your items sell.
Exclusive, Curated Auctions
Our auctions are intentionally curated and carefully structured to ensure each item receives the attention it deserves. Rather than placing your property into massive sales with thousands of competing lots, we design focused auctions that highlight quality objects and important collections. This selective approach improves visibility, attracts knowledgeable collectors, and encourages stronger bidding by allowing buyers to fully appreciate the significance, craftsmanship, and rarity of each piece. By presenting property in thoughtfully organized sales, we help create an environment where exceptional items stand out and perform at their best.
Attractive and Risk-Free Terms
We offer competitive and transparent consignment terms designed to align our success with yours. Our straightforward agreements ensure you understand the process, expectations, and settlement timeline from the start. In select situations involving important collections or higher-value property, we may also offer cash advances against anticipated auction results, providing additional flexibility and confidence when consigning valuable items. As an established and financially stable auction firm, we are able to structure consignments thoughtfully while ensuring sellers receive reliable service and timely settlement.
