Bukowskis - The leading auction house in Scandinavia

Bukowskis is the leading auction house in the Nordic region. In 1870 Henryk Bukowski founded the auction house in Stockholm. As part of the Bonhams network, we reach a global market with millions of customers through a combination of our digital platforms and auction houses in Stockholm, Helsinki, Copenhagen, London, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, and Sydney.

Since the late 19th century, Bukowskis has been located in Berzelii Park, where viewings, live auctions, quality auctions online, and private sales are held.

At Bukowskis, ongoing quality auctions take place both online and live, and all auctions are accessible through Bukowskis' digital app, which you can download here. Bukowskis private sales offer tailored solutions to meet your specific requirements. With the expertise of our prominent specialists, Bukowskis is available for home valuations both in Sweden and internationally.

During 2023, Bukowskis hammered 59 lots exceeding one million SEK and 16 new world records – by far the most on the Scandinavian auction market. The most expensive work sold at Bukowskis during 2023 was 'Huge' by Jim Nutt.
