We spent years working in luxury retail selling designer clothing at Barneys New York and Saks 5th Ave. We saw the power over people that designer clothes and bags have and watched people break their finances to attain a lifestyle that they could not afford. The envy and esteem of others is not to be underestimated nor is the confidence boosting power of wearing a recognizable luxury name brand. Owning fine artwork can serve the same purpose especially now with the prevalence of social media platforms like Instagram. Our goal is to help middle class people learn to safely invest in high quality, high value art in a financially sustainable way.
