- Japan’s leading fine art auction house conducting real auction in our saleroom

We conduct around 30 times regular auctions and occasional special auctions per year at our own auction house located in Tokyo and pre-sale exhibition is held for 2 days before the sale date. We are very much proud to announce, as Japanese leading auction house, that we are fully convinced that we can offer best market place and services to both buyers and sellers around the world.
- Authenticity guaranteed
- All lots to be sold at our auction are consigned by owners well before the auction date (usually 2 months earlier). After receiving the pieces our specialist examines the provenance, authenticity, condition and approximate market value of each piece and list them in our home page and our auction catalogue. As is clearly stated in our Mainichi Auction Conditions we are responsible for our description and guarantee authenticity of all lots that bear auction estimate price (1 year for claim period).
You can, therefore, easily participate in our auction without any worrisome troubles such as counterfeit and money trouble that sometimes occur in net auctions. 
- Pre-sale exhibition
When you are going to buy fine art works, only the photos and descriptions are not enough to determine whether to buy or not although we do our best to describe as accurately as possible. Especially regarding conditions of the works, examining them by your own hands and eyes is MUST before making bids. Please participate in our pre-sale exhibition to check your interested lots thoroughly. For those who live abroad or local cities in Japan, we provide free e-mail or telephone condition report service. Pre-sale exhibition is held for 2 days before the auction date (usually Thursday and Friday). Please feel free to contact us during this period. Our staff will examine every work according to your suggestion and report directly to you.
