Sotheby’s Maison, Hong Kong

I came across this place by chance after lunch at Jardine House. Some great pieces of art specially The Piprahwa Gems of the historical Buddha. Loved Buddha sculpture and felt the spiritual energy. Staff was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. A good place for art lovers for timely exhibitions of different themes.

A spacious gallery with interesting art pieces to see. They offered a wide variety in terms of style and medium but since they would curate in themes, it is good to check online before you go, or just prepared to be pleasantly surprised.

WORST AUCTION HOUSE!!! Yes, they just sold an €8 million Hermès — but don’t be fooled. Their customer service is absolutely atrocious, and their after-sales support is even worse. I recently bought from them and sold a few pieces through them. What a nightmare. PAYING? Total hassle. Small amounts? Fine. But for any significant purchase, the name on the bank account must match the name on your Sotheby’s account. So if you want to make a purchase through your company — forget it. Even if it’s a few hundred thousand, it must come from your personal account. Completely ridiculous. SELLING? This is where things get truly disgusting. Their so-called “worldwide compliance practice” is just a convenient excuse. They claim it's to protect against money laundering — hence, they only pay sellers 45 days after the auction ends. Let me be clear: this is a lie. It’s already been over two months, and I haven’t seen a single cent. DO NOT SELL anything through them. DO NOT TRUST them with your money. They are slow, disorganized, and hiding behind fake policies. Absolutely shameful. JULY 2025

I highly recommend visiting Sotheby’s flagship gallery, especially during the Mid-Autumn holiday! The gallery spans 24,000 square feet over two floors, featuring a unique dual-concept design. The first floor houses the Sotheby’s Salon, a luxury boutique that beautifully blends art and elegance. The ground floor showcases an impressive museum-quality exhibition space. With over 200 artifacts spanning 8,000 years of civilization, there’s something for every art lover. A highlight is Yoshitomo Nara’s “Orange Medium (Milky Lake),” which thoughtfully juxtaposes innocence with the shadows of war. If you appreciate art, don’t miss this unforgettable experience at Sotheby’s!

Very special pieces of collectable from hermes bags to donasaur skeleton to be shown at the landmark. Worthy to take a look from time to time.

I came across this place by chance when I was passing by. When I went I was delighted to see Banksy's work on display. I would love to visit again next time I'm in Hong Kong Island.

Very much enjoyed to go there for a strawl and admired some amazing pieces of contemporary art. Thanks for the opportunity.

Enjoy staying this place. Definitely a place for art lover!!!
