Flanders Auctions

Flanders Auctions is a Flemish house dealing in art, antiques and design, with sales running over three consecutive days and catalogues in the four-figure lot range. The estimates give the spread: an Antonio Segui oil on canvas at €20,000–€30,000 in the same sale as a Boris Tabacoff glass-and-metal dining set at €3,000–€5,000 and a patinated bronze Chronos at €1,200–€1,800.

What you can buy

• Paintings and sculpture, from nineteenth-century bronzes to post-war and contemporary canvases.
• Design — twentieth-century furniture by named designers, including pieces by Ferdinand Porsche for Interprofil.
• Antiques and decorative objects.
• Jewellery and collectors' items.

How the bidding works

Each sale has a published agenda, a full online catalogue with estimates, and results afterwards. The house runs its own pickup and shipping arrangements, which is worth noting for a design or sculpture lot bought from abroad — Belgian houses vary a lot on whether they will pack and send. The site runs in Dutch and English.

What to check before you bid

Estimates here are meaningful rather than decorative — the results pages let you check how they track. For twentieth-century design, provenance and originality of upholstery or finish are where the value sits, so ask for the condition report before bidding on anything at the upper end. Belgian buyer's premiums vary more than Dutch or German ones; read the conditions before your first sale.
