G. Argy-Rousseau Art Glass Auction
If you are looking to sell your G. Argy-Rousseau art glass, but you don’t feel comfortable selling directly to a dealer, then you might consider an auction. We would personally recommend consigning to one of the art glass auctions held at Manifest Auctions. They put on a top notch auction full of rare items. These auctions are held once every three to four months. Auctions are fully described with a full color catalog. There is always a strong focus on French art glass. The Manifest auction firm is known for auctioning fresh newly discovered material. And if you happen to be dealing with an estate that has other high value items then we recommend checking out Stacks Bowers for rare coin auctions and banknote auctions.
Most consignments valued at over $1,000 can be auctioned for no fee to the seller. Buyers pay a 17% commission on winning bids. Most auction houses charger 25% to both the buyer and the seller. Of course before you ultimately decide to sell privately, auction, or hold, you will want to weigh your options and see what makes the most sense for you.
If you don’t want to wait for an auction then by all means please give us a chance to make an offer on your G. Argy-Rousseau art glass. Just send us some pictures of what you have and we can tell you how much we can offer. Info@ArgyRousseau.com
