Phillips Auctions House, a british company, founded by Harry Phillips in 1796 in Westminster, London, the auction house gained international acclaim by auctioning paintings from the estate of Queen Marie Antoinette and household items belonging to Napoleon Bonaparte. Notably, it remains the sole auction house to have ever conducted a sale within Buckingham Palace. Harry Phillips blended business acumen with showmanship, hosting elaborate evening receptions before auctions, a practice now standard in the industry.
In 2014 Phillips partnered with Bacs & Russo, becoming the global market leader for collectors' watches at auction.
In 2021, Phillips relocated its New York headquarters to state-of-the-art galleries at 432 Park Avenue.
How Phillips Works
Phillips operates as a brokerage firm, facilitating transactions between sellers and buyers. This can be done through public auctions or private sales, with auctions being the most widely recognized and engaging method. Auctions draw in numerous buyers simultaneously, maximizing the potential for successful sales.
Selling at Phillips
To sell through Phillips, one can request a complimentary evaluation for eligible items via their online consignment form. Following this, a representative will guide sellers through the process, determining the best approach for selling, whether through online or live auctions, or privately in gallery spaces across various locations.
Buying at Phillips
Phillips offers multiple avenues for purchasing art, watches, or design pieces. Clients can bid online through Phillips' digital salesroom or app, participate in live auctions in person, or opt for absentee or telephone bidding. These methods ensure accessibility to buyers regardless of their location or preferred mode of participation. However, it's essential to consider additional costs such as buyer's premium and sales tax when budgeting for purchases made through auction.
