A Network Built Over Decades
Our bidder network spans interior designers, private collectors, museum buyers, set decorators, and institutions. They bid with confidence because they trust what Reynolds puts through.
Live in Oakland, California
Our auction house brings serious buyers into the room, then opens the floor to online bidders worldwide. That competitive pressure drives results that private sales rarely match.

What does a valuation cost?
Nothing. Valuations are complimentary, whether you're considering a sale, a consignment, an auction, or simply want to understand what your pieces are worth today.
Do I have to sell everything at once?
No. You can sell select items, consign others, and hold the rest. Consigned pieces can earn rental income from film and television placements and move to auction whenever the market or your situation is right.
What happens if a piece doesn't sell at auction?
We pivot immediately. If a lot doesn't reach its reserve, it moves directly into our consignment and showroom network with no delay. Nothing sits idle. You can also request the piece be returned to you at any time, at no cost.
How do you handle transport and insurance?
We coordinate insured, white-glove transport anywhere in the country and fully insure all consigned items while they are in our care at our Oakland, California facility.
I'm an advisor. How do referrals work?
Submit a referral with a few photos or an inventory list. Your client receives a free valuation and full-service handling. When a transaction completes, you receive 10% of the purchase price documented and paid promptly. We work with estate attorneys, financial advisors, realtors, interior designers, and colleagues in the film and production community.
What types of pieces do you accept?
Exceptional antiques and design, signed and designer jewelry, fine timepieces, fine art and decorative objects, vintage fashion, and notable memorabilia and collectibles. When in doubt, send photos—we'll tell you honestly if we're the right home for it.
