Hake’s gives special attention and dedication to consignments so that the best prices can be achieved. They provide detailed descriptions that include contextual, condition, and provenance notes as well as comprehensive, high-res images. They promote consignments in multiple formats via their website, catalog, social media, and advertisements. Their easy to use website is packed with details and high quality images of consigned material.
By limiting the number of similar items in each auction, Hake’s ensure that consignors’ material will not be competing with like memorabilia. This gives each item the opportunity to reach its full potential.
Along with each auction, they also produce a detailed, full color catalog listing every lot in the auction with full descriptions, price estimates, and images. It is distributed to their clientele around the world. Select pieces are chosen to be depicted on the catalog’s cover, guaranteeing even more exposure.
