ADVICE ON BUYING

We are aware that the art market may appear opaque and complex. We, at Gerrish Fine Art, offer advice to guide you through the acquisition process informed by 50 years experience in the industry. Our mission statement is to help our clients to build collections of both enduring quality and value, whilst at the same time exploring their specific interests and providing an educational experience.

For a predetermined fee we:

  • Keep our clients up to date with pieces that might interest them: sourcing works of art either privately or at auction.
  • Research the condition, quality and provenance of potential purchases and advise our clients on the correct price to pay.
  • Handle all negotiations, execute bids at auction, and take care of post-sale logistics.

ADVICE ON SELLING

Selling can be a complicated process that raises many questions: where to sell, when to sell, what to sell? We evaluate all potential avenues through which to sell, be it privately, through auction or directly to an institution, in order to obtain the highest possible net financial return for our clients.

For a predetermined fee we:

  • Advise clients on current market value.
  • Determine the best place to sell and handle all sales negotiations.

VALUATIONS & INSURANCE

We have extensive experience in valuing individual works of art and entire collections.

For a predetermined fee we:

  • Provide fair market value and marketable cash value appraisals for divorce and the equitable division of assets.
  • Offer retail replacement valuations for insurance purposes, to ensure that your artworks are protected against damage, loss or theft.

PHILANTHROPY & MUSEUM LOANS

We are proud of our close relationships with many of the world’s leading institutions and can provide an important link between museums and collectors, arranging both short-term exhibition loans and gifts.

ART FOR INTERIORS

If you are looking for artwork for a specific space in your home or office we’re always happy to suggest works from our stock based on your price range, visual taste or period of interest.
