FREEMAN'S

In 1805 Tristram B. Freeman opened an auction house with the desire to “cherish the arts in the new world.” Over 200 years later, Freeman’s is still committed to exceptional art and exceptional people. We believe in a unique standard of one-on-one service, where people are just as important as their possessions. As America’s oldest auction house, we have spent decades building relationships with a loyal, diverse and passionate group of collectors in Philadelphia and beyond. Freeman's is a venerable organization, whose success is due in no small part to the dedication of our employees. We share a commitment to providing the very best in customer service, professional integrity, and an enthusiasm for the auction business. With international experience and comprehensive knowledge of market conditions, the specialists at Freeman’s work closely with consignors and collectors to offer unparalleled service in the sale and purchase of fine art, antiques, jewelry, books and more.We are well known for our success with the Pennsylvania Impressionist artists, selling more works by these painters than any other leading auction house at world-record prices.
