The French art of transmission
Founded 50 years ago, Aguttes has risen over the years to become a major player in the international art market. This growth stems from the passion of its teams for the transmission of works of art and exceptional objects. Its 60 employees are dedicated to beauty and emotional and intellectual transmission among collectors. The house excels in all its specialties, handling items ranging from €10,000 to €2 million, as well as sales of private collections, thanks to its dynamism and a strong international communication force that regularly achieves auction records.
