Authenticity Pledge and Trading Practices

Authenticity

Authenticity is one of the single biggest issues in the Art market as a whole. Despite being a relatively small section of the Art market in general, the Antiquities and Historical Collectibles market is plagued with fakes, many of which can be found for sale online and elsewhere without much difficulty.

ArtAncient Ltd. offers a full, unlimited guarantee of Authenticity for all items that we sell. We provide a certificate of authenticity with everything sold. We do not sell imitations or replicas.

Responsible Trading

ArtAncient Ltd. is committed to the ethical purchase of all items of historical significance that we offer. We will never knowingly engage in the purchase of objects whose provenance, or ownership history, is deemed to be dubious or absent.

It is a privilege and a responsibility to buy and sell Rare / Ancient / Historical Objects. These items constitute part of our collective History and as such those involved in the trade of these items have a duty to act responsibly. The irresponsible trading of items that may have been illegally exported from their country of origin threatens both our own Cultural Heritage and the credibility of our field.
