“Auction houses don’t protect buyers. FAE does.”- NEW YORK
I always assumed auction houses were neutral. They are not. FAE.LLC reviewed the work, the signature, the provenance gaps, and the condition logic. What I learned in one consultation would have taken me years to understand alone. This is risk intelligence, not opinion.
“Discreet. Direct. Ruthlessly honest.” LOS ANGELES
No hype. No flattery. No pressure to buy. Just facts, experience, and uncomfortable truths — exactly what a serious collector needs. Gerard doesn’t tell you what you want to hear. He tells you what you need to know before money changes hands.
“I will never buy art without this service again.” LOS ANGELES
After decades of collecting, I thought I had seen it all. I hadn’t. FAE.LLC identified inconsistencies that were invisible to me and completely ignored by the seller. This consultation paid for itself instantly.
“This is not authentication. It’s protection.” MIAMI
Anyone can sell you a certificate. FAE.LLC explains what certificates don’t say, what auction descriptions avoid, and where legal and financial risk actually lives. If you are investing serious money, this step is non-negotiable.
“Finally, someone who works for the buyer.” NEW YORK
Galleries protect galleries. Auction houses protect sellers. FAE.LLC protects the collector. Clear, fast, confidential, and brutally effective.
“Experience you cannot Google.” LONDON
This is not academic theory or recycled online knowledge. You feel immediately that this comes from decades inside the market — successes, failures, lawsuits, and real sales. That experience is priceless.
