Our principle
Storage With Intention
Pieces in the Vault are not merely stored. They are monitored, grouped and prepared with their final destination in mind, so the eventual export is smoother, safer and more efficient.
Pieces acquired by our curators on your behalf through a private request or found by the Hunting Salon™ arrive here directly, and oversized consignments leave under the care of the Museum-Grade Logistics Suite™.
