Approximately 85% of our inventory is available in stock and ready to ship. Exceptionally rare or specialty pieces may be sourced through our trusted worldwide network and typically arrive at our studio within 7–10 business days before shipment.

We offer both new and pre-owned luxury pieces. Every listing clearly states the item’s condition and includes detailed photos and descriptions.

PRIVATE SOURCING

Simply submit your wishlist along with your preferred condition, budget, and any reference photos. Our concierge team then searches our trusted global network of boutiques, collectors, and industry partners to locate the best available example of your requested piece.

Some highly specialized sourcing requests require a 20% non-refundable sourcing deposit before we begin the search.

Yes. We selectively purchase luxury handbags, accessories, jewelry, watches, and ready-to-wear through our direct buyout program.

If maximizing your return is most important, consignment is typically the best option. If speed and immediate payment are your priority, a direct buyout may be a better fit.

Complete our online submission form with clear photos, condition details, any inclusions, and your desired net amount if applicable. Our team will personally review your submission.

Most submissions are reviewed within 1–3 business days, although exceptionally large collections may require additional evaluation.

For direct buyouts, payment is issued promptly after inspection and authentication. Consignment payouts are issued once your item has sold according to your consignment agreement.
