Ownership transfers upon receipt of cleared funds unless otherwise agreed in writing.

We reserve the right to refuse any transaction at our discretion.


8. Deposits and Reserved Works

  • Reserved artworks will be held only for the agreed reservation period.
  • Failure to complete payment within the agreed timeframe may result in cancellation of the reservation.
