FAQ · FREQUENTLY ASKED

Before You Consign

Common questions about submission, valuation, fees and promotion.

How do I submit an item?

Send at least six photographs (original, uncropped, each above 2 MB) covering the full body, rim, base and any marks. Three channels: email [email protected], WeChat, or the online form on this page.

How are appraisal and valuation conducted?

Our specialists review your photographs and documentation and provide an expert opinion with an HKD reference range in three tiers (conservative / mid / upper), usually within 24 hours.

What are the fees and settlement terms?

All fees and settlement terms are provided in writing: a complete fee schedule before signing, with a post-sale settlement model.

What does consignment promotion include?

Professional photography and retouching, a bilingual (Chinese/English) dedicated page indexed by major search engines, a social share card, scarcity & value highlights, and promotion to an international collector network.

Can overseas collectors consign?

Yes. We accept consignments worldwide — one email is all it takes to begin; pages are presented in both Chinese and English.

Which categories do you accept?

Chinese paintings & calligraphy, Ming & Qing imperial porcelain, jade & works of art, jewellery & watches, classical furniture, and contemporary art. For other categories, please enquire by email first.

Can I consign without invoices or provenance documents?

Yes. A documented chain of ownership or publication history typically adds 20–30 per cent to the price, but the absence of provenance does not prevent consignment — the difference is stated openly in the reference valuation. Gather any supporting clues you have: old photographs, labels, family papers.

Why is a valuation a range rather than a single figure?

Because the outcome depends on condition, provenance, subject rarity and the bidding atmosphere on the day. A single-point quote cannot be executed. We give three tiers — conservative (quick sale), mid (regular sale) and ambitious (requires authentication, provenance and catalogue positioning) — each with its stated preconditions.

The piece is inherited and I am unsure of authenticity. What now?

Begin with a paper assessment from photographs — authenticity, quality and rarity — before committing to physical authentication. In most cases the first assessment is sufficient to decide whether the piece is worth pursuing.

When is settlement paid?

The payment cycle follows the written agreement signed before consignment. You receive a complete fee and settlement schedule at that stage, with settlement after sale.
