By Appointment Only
For collections of consequence. A discreet, senior-led practice for clients who require more than a counter and a price — sourcing, structuring, and stewardship, held in complete confidence.
The Practice
Forty-five years of heritage, applied to a single collection at a time.
Our gallery serves collectors across every level of the market. The advisory practice is narrower by design. It exists for the client whose holdings warrant a standing relationship — where the question is not what a piece is worth today, but how a collection should be built, held, and eventually passed on.
Engagements are taken selectively, and each is led personally by a senior numismatist or horologist. Nothing you share with us is recorded in a public system, and no piece is discussed outside the gallery. Discretion is not a courtesy here; it is the premise.
Areas of Counsel
Retained & Single-Mandate
Private Acquisition
Access to pieces that never reach the showroom floor. We source against a written mandate — a specific date, mint, reference, or provenance — and report only when the piece meets it.
Portfolio Structuring
Guidance on allocation, timing, and liquidity across numismatics, bullion, and horology. We advise on what to hold, what to release, and when the market rewards patience.
Estate & Succession
Certified valuations for probate, insurance, and family transfer, conducted discreetly and documented to the standard your counsel and executors require.
Deaccession & Consignment
Where a collection is to be released, we place each piece through the channel that serves it best — private treaty, our own platforms, or specialist auction.
How We Work
A Considered Engagement
01
Introduction
A confidential conversation, in person at the gallery or by private call, to understand your holdings and objectives. No obligation, no fee.
02
Mandate
We set out in writing what we are looking for on your behalf, or what we are advising you to release, with the terms agreed in advance.
03
Execution
Sourcing, authentication, and negotiation are handled by a single senior advisor who remains your point of contact throughout.
04
Stewardship
Ongoing counsel on storage, insurance, and market position — for as long as the collection remains in your care.
