VAT Reduction: Now at 5%

Dear Valued Clients,

We are delighted to share some exciting news regarding our VAT structure. After diligent efforts to clarify the provisions for goods taxable at a reduced rate, we are thrilled to announce a significant change that marks the most substantial VAT reduction in our gallery’s tax structure in over 50 years.

Effective May 2024, all art purchases made at Peter’s Gallery, excluding silkscreen prints and poster art prints, will now be subject to a reduced VAT rate of 5%, as opposed to the previous rate of 19%. This change aims to enhance your experience and provide fair and attractive pricing for our clients.

Here is a brief overview of our updated VAT structure:

• For all art purchases made at Peter’s Gallery, excluding silkscreen prints and poster art prints, VAT will be applied at a rate of 5%. This applies to sales from all our selling channels including our auctions.

• For consignment artworks represented by Peter’s Gallery, a zero VAT rate will apply.

This reduction offers both new and seasoned collectors a more favourable opportunity to start or expand their collections, enabling them to acquire artworks with greater financial benefits.

As the Director of Peter’s Gallery, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to our clients for the 50 years of support and trust you have shown in our gallery. I want to emphasise our ongoing commitment to providing the most competitive and professional services.

For more information and to stay informed with our upcoming exhibitions and events, please register for our newsletter or contact us directly.

We look forward to seeing you at Peter’s Gallery.

Director, Peter’s Gallery

Αγαπητοί μας Πελάτες,

Κατόπιν επιμελούς προσπάθειας βρισκόμαστε σήμερα στην ευχάριστη θέση να σας ανακοινώσουμε σημαντικά νέα σχετικά με τη νέα δομή του Φ.Π.Α. στα έργα τέχνης της Peter’s Gallery.

Από τον Μάιο 2024 θα εφαρμόζεται συντελεστής Φ.Π.Α. 5% και όχι 19% στις αγορές έργων τέχνης που πραγματοποιούνται στην Peter’s Gallery, εκτός από τις μεταξοτυπίες και τις αφίσες (πόστερ τέχνης). Θα εφαρμόζεται σε αγορές έργων από όλα τα κανάλια πωλήσεων της Peter’s Gallery συμπεριλαμβανομένου και των δημοπρασιών μας.

Επιπρόσθετα, θα εφαρμόζεται μηδενικός Φ.Π.Α. σε έργα παρακαταθήκης της γκαλερί. Πρόκειται για έργα τέχνης που ανήκουν σε καταθέτες και εκπροσωπούνται από την Peter’s Gallery.

Με αυτή την σημαντική μείωση του συντελεστή δίνεται μια μεγάλη ευκαιρία στους νέους και υφιστάμενους πελάτες μας να απολαύσουν αγορές έργων με πιο ευνοϊκές συνθήκες για να ξεκινήσουν ή να εμπλουτίσουν τις συλλογές τους.

Ως Διευθυντής της Peter’s Gallery θα ήθελα να εκφράσω τις ειλικρινείς ευχαριστίες μας προς τους πελάτες μας για τα 50 χρόνια υποστήριξης και εμπιστοσύνης που έχουν επιδείξει στην γκαλερί μας και να υπογραμμίσω τη ατελεύτητη προσπάθεια μας να συνεχίσουμε να προσφέρουμε τις πιο ανταγωνιστικές και επαγγελματικές υπηρεσίες.

Για περισσότερες πληροφορίες και ενημερώσεις σχετικά με τις επερχόμενες εκθέσεις και εκδηλώσεις μας εγγραφείτε εδώ ή επικοινωνήστε μαζί μας απευθείας.

Ανυπομονούμε να σας καλωσορίσουμε στην γκαλερί μας.

Notice

Effective May 2024, Peter’s Gallery has lowered its VAT rates from 19% to 5% for all categories excluding Silkscreen prints & Poster prints. Please refer to our announcement and our Terms and Conditions for more information.

Lot Prices

Please note that Lot prices listed on this page are exclusive of the Buyer’s Premium, of any applicable taxes and costs, unless otherwise noted.

Auction closing times

Lots will close at their scheduled time unless a bid is placed within five minutes of a Lot’s scheduled closing time, in which case we will extend the sale of that Lot by five minutes.

The extension of any Lot’s closing time does not affect any other Lot’s closing time; therefore, it is possible that Lots will close out of the announced auction ending time. Lots may extend for up to two hours to accommodate competitive bidding.

Information

Aftersale

Unsold artworks from the latest auction are now available for purchase at their starting price for a limited time. The Aftersale offers a second chance for unclaimed items to find their new collector. They can be viewed on this page under the ‘Aftersale‘ label or by visiting the gallery.

For a direct view of the Aftersale items only, you can browse them here.

Information

The secondary art market

The term “secondary market” refers to art that has been sold at least once before. In simpler terms, the secondary market deals with resale, typically with artworks by artists who have a substantial reputation. For example, most artworks sold through auction houses form part of the secondary market.

Information

Buyer's Premium & VAT

The total purchase price is calculated, in short, as such:

Hammer Price + Buyer’s Premium (12%) + *VAT (5% or 19%)

The Buyer’s Premium is added to the Hammer Price (winning bid) and is included as part of the total Purchase Price payable by the successful Bidder. In an Online Auction conducted by Peter’s Gallery, the Buyer’s Premium rate is as follows: 12% of the Hammer Price of any amount. 

*Value Added Tax (VAT) applies as follows: artworks are taxed at a reduced rate of five percent (5%) (‡ symbol) or nineteen percent (19%) († symbol) on the hammer price, depending on the item. For items marked with the Omega symbol (Ω), the hammer price is exempt from VAT. A nineteen percent (19%) VAT applies to the Buyer’s Premium for all items, regardless of the symbol.

The VAT and Buyer’s Premium will be applied on the checkout page.
