The art of carpet making is well over 2 000 years old, and for centuries oriental carpets have been a luxurious and indispensable element in Western interiors. Koller holds auctions of Carpets twice annually, in conjunction with our sales of Fine Furniture & Decorative Arts. Additionally, contemporary carpets are offered in our twice-annual Design auctions.

Jean-Pierre Dalla Vedova, our specialist and department head for Carpets, will be pleased to value your works in view of a possible sale through our auctions.

We accept consignments until mid-January for the March auction and until the end of July for the September auction.


Valuations / Consignments


If you wish to consign to one of our auctions, we will value your artworks free of charge. Please send us photos if possible, or call us. We will arrange an appointment to view your property at your home or in one of our offices in Zurich, Geneva, Florence, Munich or Düsseldorf. You will then receive our auction estimates so that you can make your decision.
