Acquiring our pieces

To provide the most personal and secure service, we have opted not to use an automated checkout system. Instead, we manage every acquisition with the care of a one-on-one consultation.

Many of our Fine Art, Decorative Arts, and Rare Books are also available for viewing in London, while others are held in our European locations.

Private viewings are a core part of our service, and we welcome you to schedule an appointment to experience them in person.

Step 1: CREATE YOUR PERSONAL SELECTION

As you explore our collections, please select the items that resonate with you by clicking the heart icon ♡ located in the top-right corner of the menu. This will add them to your personal selection.

STEP 2: TWO STEPS ACQUISITION PROCESS

The acquisition process utilises a two-stage payment to finalise the purchase and calculate bespoke logistics:

  • Stage 1: Initial Payment

         The buyer is charged the 20% of the price for the object(s) selected.

         This initial payment is  made when the buyer agrees to the Conditions of Sale and the Returns,                   Refunds, and Exchange Policy

  • Stage 2: Final Invoice (for Balance Due)

         After the initial payment, specialists will calculate the exact costs for bespoke delivery, insurance, and tax. The buyer will receive a separate invoice for this remaining balance due, to be covered within 24 hours of reception

STEP3: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

You will receive an immediate email acknowledging your inquiry. Our team will then personally review your selection to confirm the availability of each piece.

STEP4 : CONFIRMATION AND INVOICE

  • Once availability is confirmed, we will send you a formal invoice.
  • Within 24 hours of receiving your completed form, we will contact you via email with the final, detailed invoice.
  • This invoice will outline the total due and include necessary details for your consideration, such as:
    • Transportation Options: A selection of insured shipping and delivery methods.
    • Gift-Wrapping: Availability and cost for any requested gift-wrapping services.
    • Third-Party Authentication: Information regarding optional third-party verification services, where applicable.
  •  

STEP 5 : RESERVATION AND PAYMENT DEADLINE

  • The items specified in your invoice will remain reserved for you for a period of 24 hours from the time the final invoice is sent.
  • Final payment is completed securely via bank transfer. All necessary details will be included on your invoice.
  • This personal process ensures every detail of your acquisition is handled with care and precision, from our hands to yours.
  • D E M I D D E L will confirm the full payment within this 24-hour window to finalise the purchase.
  • Unfortunately, if confirmation of payment is not received within 24 hours, we reserve the right to release the reserved lots back into inventory.
