Who we buy from
Dealers and auction houses
Unsold lots, stock and consignments, bought outright.

Pieces you want placed
We buy from dealers and auction houses: single pieces, groups, and lots left unsold after a sale. Tell us what you hold and what you need for it, and we tell you whether we can take it and at what price.
Pass us a client
If a client of yours is ready to sell a collection, send them our way. We write to them as plainly as we write to you.
A line to send them
Precolumbian.com buys pre-Columbian art, single pieces and whole collections. If you are thinking of selling, send photographs and whatever you know to info@precolumbian.com. You hear back within two working days with an offer in writing, what is still needed to make one, or a plain answer if it is not something Precolumbian.com can take. There is no fee and no obligation.
