Objects appraised in Digne-les-Bains and sold in Paris

Selling a sculpture or painting at the Hôtel Drouot in Paris offers many advantages, even if you live in Manosque or the neighboring communes. The largest town in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence region, Manosque boasts medieval gates, narrow Provencal streets and a rich heritage, including the church of Saint-Sauveur and the Mont d'Or tower.

Surrounded by olive groves and lavender fields, the town enjoys a natural setting typical of Haute-Provence, which has inspired many writers, including Jean Giono, a native of the region. Close to Aix-en-Provence and the Durance valley, Manosque is strategically located with excellent road and motorway links, making it easy to transport works to Paris.

Despite the geographical distance, our collaboration with various transporters and our local teams guarantees reasonable sales costs. You benefit from Drouot's renown to showcase your work and attract collectors from all over the world, while minimizing logistical costs.

This prestigious platform for the exchange and circulation of the European art market offers incomparable visibility for your objects, opening the doors to new opportunities for your possessions, wherever you live.

The art market in Digne-les-Bains           

The art market is far from non-existent in Digne-les-Bains, where you'll find many galleries, but the potential of your works sometimes doesn't reach what it deserves. Presenting them for sale at Drouot through our appraisals can be a real plus for their valuation.

Our auctioneers and appraisers come on site, in the Alpes de Haute Provence, in Manosque, Digne-les-Bains, Gap and Sisteron, to appraise your works and advise you. If you need an auctioneer to carry out an inventory, Auctie's can also help you in the best possible way, by appointment.
