Can anyone recommend a good auction house?, by crank on Apr 17, 2016 15:11:14 GMT 1, Hello all,
As the title states! I have a Dolk canvas I'd like to sell and would rather not stick it on eBay. Could anyone recommend a good auction house that A) will consider urban art , B) won't rip me off and C) is UK based.
I emailed Bonhams and Paddle8 but they weren't interested.
Any ideas??

If I for some reason insisted that it must be sold at auction I would probably use Digard in Paris as you are unlikely to find a UK auction house that will be both interested and able to obtain a great result.

The fact that two auction houses have said no is a good indicator on how they rate your piece for auction

Surprised also Bonhams did not want it. I would just contact all of the auction houses and don't be afraid from trying them all, thats what a lot of dealers do.
