Trade / Sell

HL & HL Antiquities clients include a vast array of private individuals, who desire to acquire one or more unique works of art that will ultimately enrich their surroundings and lives, and in some cases, also view their purchases as prudent investments.

HL & HL Antiquities purchases works of art from public auctions, art dealers, private collectors and art brokers worldwide.

HL & HL Antiquities has developed procedures for establishing provenance-the chain of ownership-in the antiquities trade. This is done to ensure that pieces come from reputable channels and are in accordance with the law. HL & HL Antiquities employ researchers who match artefacts against lost art registries, such as Art Loss Register Ltd., and who seek out documentation of prior ownership, including, but not limited to publications, sworn affidavits, dated photographs, invoices, customs documents, and insurance policies.
