House of Craven’s 2023 Art Week goals (December 05, 2023 - December 10, 2023) were to benefit galleries, artists, and social-impact organizations.
Art-market demand is all about access—if House of Craven can provide really great access to really transformative Art, then that works for all parties.
House of Craven can conduct private sales, at fixed prices, which can involve galleries and dealers. This mechanism is gradually becoming a larger part of our auction business, integrating private selling exhibitions and opportunities into our services. In doing so, House of Craven encourages our art specialists to engage our clients in both public auctions and private sales, dissolving the boundaries separating the two, while prioritizing the collector’s needs.
House of Craven can curate shows in galleries to build brand awareness. The gallery benefits from new visitors and potential collectors from around the world, as well as a portion of the sales.
House of Craven has partnered with ART Money. Art Money Interest Free enables you to enjoy the art you love today and pay over 10 monthly payments, interest-free, when purchasing from House of Craven. House of Craven pays a commission to Art Money, enabling the interest-free business model.

Having owned, operated and sold multiple successful Estate Sale franchise territories for a number of years (in 2022, we were recognized as one of the top 500 US franchises in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500®), it was through that experience that House of Craven was developed to address specific issues we identified in the industry, specifically differentiating on pricing, authentication, and providing superior service through technology (i.e. custom House of Craven mobile APP and blockchain technology authentication services) to actually sell valuable items. Over the years, we dealt with a number of auctions houses throughout the world, and they were auctioning too many different items, not marketing effectively and not capturing the full value of the item. Growing up a collector, House of Craven evolved from a passion and hobby into a successful global business. House of Craven has built an impenetrable reputation – having a strong reputation in a niche market is a valuable asset, positioning House of Craven as a data driven technology solution for clients who want a differentiated pricing strategy; our proprietary database of price points; and superior service in the category of listings we sell. Simply, where you buy and sell, matters.
House of Craven's intrinsic characteristics give durable competitive advantages allowing us to survive and thrive in a connected global market. Beyond a strong international brand, House of Craven has leveraged data and technology to achieve economies of scale that allow for lower commission rates, successful marketing and higher sales.
