Selling

There is no single route that works for every sale. Each artwork is different, and so are the goals, timelines, and preferences of the people who own it. Caverleigh, combines informed market insight with an international network to shape a selling approach that suits the specific piece, the owner, and the wider collection, with the aim of achieving the strongest possible outcome.

We make sure you stay in control throughout. Compared with more public routes to market, we can often offer greater discretion and flexibility, while keeping you fully informed at each stage. We are clear about the options available, the likely parameters, and the steps involved, so decisions are made with confidence and there are no unexpected developments along the way.

Tastes and priorities change over time, and families often face broader questions about the future of a collection. We can advise on the practical and generational considerations around transferring or reshaping holdings, and help set a longer term strategy that reflects what matters to you.

Before anything is offered for sale, thorough preparation is essential. We carry out detailed research and due diligence, reviewing provenance and expertise carefully, and ensuring the supporting documentation is in order. This helps protect the integrity of the sale and reduces the risk of issues arising after the transaction has completed.
