Anyone unsure of the authenticity of any work of art sold in our auctions should consult an expert.Whether or not a particular artist created a work of art is debatable and we cannot guarantee that an artist created any work of art and we don't. We do not guarantee the age of an item, we give an opinion but the opinion in the description should not be taken as fact. We do not guarantee the materials of an item, we give an opinion but the opinion should not be taken as fact. We guarantee precious stones, and precious metals, as diamonds, rubies sapphires and 18k, platinum and silver. We do not distinguish between natural and synthetic material so that if we guarantee a colored stone as ruby or sapphire we are not saying that it is not a synthetic ruby or synthetic sapphire. Basically all items except for precious stones or precious metals are sold as is, and cannot be returned for issues of age, material, authorship, artist, or other issues that conflict with the catalogue description, which should be taken as an opinion and not fact or a guarantee.
