WHO IS ART4SALE ~ SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN

 

HOW LONG HAS SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN & ART4SALE BEEN IN THE FINE ART BUSINESS?
SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN (SG) was founded in 1985 in southern California. In 1992, SG relocated to Boca Raton, Florida expanding its operation to over 8,000 sq. ft. which included in-house custom framing and a professional packaging/shipping department. ART4SALE.com was launched in 1995, bringing the world of fine art to your door step. In 2003, SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN opened at its current location in north Palm Beach, Florida. The new 12,000 sq. ft. Showroom features one of the most impressive art collections anywhere. In addition, SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN offers home furnishings and unique accessories from around the world. Whether looking to expand your art collection, shopping for one piece of furniture or a complete interiors concept, Swahn Galleries is your one stop showroom!

WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGE TO DOING BUSINESS WITH ART4SALE VS. OTHER ART RELATED SITES?
ART4SALE is not merely an online art site; SG has a history in the fine art business and is well respected throughout the industry. Unlike art brokers who may operate from their home (known as "table top" dealers), with no inventory, and only a web site "front", ART4SALE ~ SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN is a full service gallery here to assist you long term. We GUARANTEE you will receive exactly what you order in a professional, timely manner. Be sure to read what our collector's say about us on our Testimonials page.

ARE YOU AN ART BROKER?
An art broker is simply the person between the artist/publisher and you, the end collector. So yes, we are art brokers but consider ourselves more "Full Service" as we also offer a Gallery Showroom, Special Design Services, In-House Museum Custom Framing, an In-House Professional Packing/Shipping Department and EXPERIENCED Dealers & Consultants to assist you in making the absolute right decisions. Anyone can launch an internet site; we're much more than that!

CAN I VISIT SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN?
We encourage you to stop by our Gallery when you visit south Florida. We are conveniently located in beautiful Boca Raton. For directions and gallery hours, visit our SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN

WHAT STYLE OF ART DO YOU REPRESENT?
We offer a wide array of fine art by today's most popular contemporary and traditional artists, along with an impressive group of emerging artists and select modern masters work.

IF THERE IS A PARTICULAR ARTWORK I AM LOOKING TO ACQUIRE, CAN YOU HELP ME?
Our Fine Art Brokerage Service has access to thousands of art titles through our dealer, publisher, and artist networks. We make certain that you receive the best value while maintaining the highest level of service. To locate that special title, click Buy Request.

HOW DO I KNOW MY ART WILL ARRIVE SAFELY?
ART4SALE has an In-House Packing/Shipping Department, who professionally handles and securely packs your artwork to ensure protection of your investment. We ship via Federal Express who we've found year after year to be the most dependable and on time carrier both domestically and internationally.

WHAT METHODS OF PAYMENT DOES ART4SALE ACCEPT?
Personal Check, Company Check, Cashier's Check, Money Order, Bank Check, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.

DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS OR LAY-AWAY ON ART?
Yes! SWAHN GALLERIES & DESIGN offers special financing plans with no annual fee and instant credit up to $7500! Call a SG representative to ask about this unique offer. Another option is our In House Lay-Away Plan which requires that you pay 1/3 of total invoice upon purchase. 1/3 is paid 30 days from purchase date and the balance paid 45 days from purchase date. However, we are flexible and can accommodate your payment needs. Contact our Accounting Department to discuss how we may assist you.
