The very best most interesting auction house
I love this place and have felt this way for many years. Can’t beat the selection of fascinating items I’ve bought. Even the catalogues are a blast. Top shelf operation

Wonderful auction house for textiles and tribal art
I have purchased from this auction house a few times over the past 3 years and have never had anything but good experiences. Nice items, honest/appropriate assesment and reports of condition etc, they work well with transporters... my only regret at times has been allowing myself to be outbid on certain items:)

Difficulty With Pickup
Aside from a catalogue with mediocre photos, this auctioneer turned away the shipper I authorized without notifying me. This is after I paid timely. The ridiculous excuse was that they had an auction that day. When someone has paid for an item, the priority must be to turn over the piece to the owner or agent. I was left waiting for my property when it was never going to arrive because the house had moved on while retaining my property. Not a good auction house.

Have never purchased a piece of art here that I didn't love, and the team is more than helpful whenever I've had any questions. Highly recommended!

That you need to find a packer and shipper, the Philadelphia Warehouse link has worked well.
Material Culture has great material for the Asian textile collector, as well as unusual pieces of 'primitive' art at reasonable prices. This is my 3rd experience and every step has connected to get the pieces to home in South America. I look forward to the next sale. Another benefit is the clear descriptions. Keep on providing us with tempting material!
