ARTVALUENOW · ASIAN ART · VANCOUVER
Buy and Sell Asian Art with a Dealer’s Eye and an Appraiser’s Discipline
From Vancouver, ArtValueNow deals in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean art — porcelain, jade, bronzes, scholar’s objects, and Korean ceramics — together with a select offering of Western fine art, including European oil paintings. Every work is researched before it is offered; every price is grounded in the market.
FROM TWENTY YEARS OF COLLECTING — AN OPEN COLLECTION
The works offered on this site come from two sources: pieces gathered over twenty years of collecting, and consignments entrusted to us by important clients. Each piece has been researched in depth — its maker, its history, its provenance — and that research is published here in full and without reservation, for collectors and professional institutions alike to read, use, and test against their own knowledge.
If your eye finds more in a piece than we have — a mark read too conservatively, a history richer than the one we could document — that discovery is yours to keep: the work can be bought at its listed price, exactly as offered. And if you do buy it, we would genuinely welcome hearing from you afterwards. When a visitor teaches us something about a piece that passed through our hands, we count that as a gain, not a loss — and we are glad to know where the work has found its home.
Available Artworks
Select works from private collections and estates — researched, vetted, and ready for their next home.
Sell With ArtValueNow
Selling a single piece or an entire collection? We place works with qualified buyers through private channels, discreetly and strategically.
THE ARTVALUENOW JOURNAL
Research, Published in Full
Every work offered here is researched before it is listed — and the research is published, not filed away. In the Journal you will find how a Korean moon jar was traced to its maker, how an unrecorded French painting was checked against thirty years of sale records, and the market notes in between — written for collectors and institutions to read, use, and test against their own knowledge.
