Selling an estate

Losing a close friend or family member is an emotional time, and it may also involve complicated practical matters that you are unaccustomed to dealing with.
If you are thinking of selling, there are a variety of options.

Bukowskis is perhaps best associated with expensive and exclusive objects. But we also valuate and sell more everyday antiques. To begin with, you should ask for an independent valuation of the objects in the estate. Bukowskis deals daily with the valuation of all kinds of household objects.

We have several estate valuators all over Sweden and Finland who can visit you free of charge for a valuation. There are no strings attached, and you don't have to decide until after the valuation if you wish to sell. We propose an estimated price and a reserve price, i.e. the minimum price at which the object will be sold.

An auction usually yield a better result than other alternatives, since it means that each object gets the maximum exposure and thus the highest possible price. Since we handle all kinds of auctions, from exclusive hammer auctions to efficient online auctions, we can ensure a speedy sale and high prices.

About Bukowskis
Every auction is unique. That has been our approach ever since Henryk Bukowski started the company in 1870 and thereby became the first to operate catalogued quality auctions in Sweden.
From the sale of the collections of King Charles XV’s estate in 1873, to the auction of Ingmar Bergman’s estate in 2009, which was widely publicised in the press - Bukowskis has a network of thousands of customers, all over the world.
Please do not hesitate to contact us for a free valuation or for general questions and advice.
