For African art we challenge anyone to propose items, as beautiful as those we sell, cheaper. We offer interesting objects especially in terms of prices that reflect market reality which is a much mature market than the 2 previous ones. Internet enables us to buy and sell cheap and we offer very beautiful and competitive pieces for less than € 1 500. Let us give you some informations on this african market: a mask or a statue from a "late" period for the specialist but still made on site by the appropriate ethnic group and for tribal activities is a thousand Euros worth. There are remote areas of Africa where animist cults are still practiced. A piece of art old well made, made in 1950’s worth at least € 3,000 or more likely around € 5,000. In this market a beautiful Yaure mask which has not "danced", is € 3 000 worth (see, for example: the sale from Ferri auction house at Drouot on 17/06/2011, with excellent expert Jean Roudillon). It is best to acquire an african art object from a range of price from 3 to € 5 000 with a certificate from a recognized expert or at least a reputable dealer of the profession. A rare and ancient object of desire for collectors is not much less than 10 000 Euros and for historical pieces one must be able to spend more than 100 000 Euros. Finally, keep in mind that the case of the french RMN (which sell all the art copies from the french museums ), immediately identifiable as copies, an art copy in plastic resin is sold around 600 € and a copy in bronze is sold 1 800 €! So. as far as rates below 1 500-2 000 € are considered, it is not unreasonable to buy a nice well-made art object for which you’ve fallen in love at first sight, without much financial risk.
