Collecting Art - Pleasure And Investment

Collecting art as a Rand-hedged investment and for pleasure makes good economic sense. We can source works of art and help you build your collection wisely.
 
Investment in the art and antique market, as part of a comprehensive investment portfolio comprising a mixture of bond, equity and property investments, provides a clever and pleasurable asset diversification. International art equals international currency. Harriet and Gillian offer a personalized, professional and accessible service on buying and collecting for pleasure or as a Rand-hedged investment.

Enhancing, Rationalizing Or Valuing Your Collection

We are in an excellent position to source works of art or artefacts. We would be delighted to source additional pieces for the collection. If there were new collecting areas that you are developing, we would be happy to advise you of current sales and market trends.
 
Please do not hesitate to let us know what you are looking out for.
 
In addition to this Gilfillan Scott-Berning run an online catalogue as a service to those clients who would like to sell their property locally. For example, the site has a good selection of affordable art from which to choose. It is worthwhile monitoring the site if you are a serious collector.
 
In addition, we assist clients to rationalize and improve their collections. This often requires discarding items that were collected before a ‘collections policy’ provided a strong focus and direction for the individual or institutional collection. Finally, we can arrange an international valuation of your collection.
