JOHN DOBSON ONEART

PRIVATE ACQUISITION

How to buy

A clear route from one question to an installed work, with each commitment made in writing.

Begin with a question

Five steps, from enquiry to installation

1

Ask for the facts

You send the artwork reference, your email and the question that matters first. We reply personally with price, availability, edition status where relevant, dimensions and a short condition note.

2

Check scale and delivered cost

You share your city and, if helpful, a wall photograph with one measurement. We prepare a delivered estimate and a free to-scale visualisation. Ask for the expected turnaround when you send your wall photograph.

3

Review the paperwork

You review the invoice, certificate details, condition report, packing plan, delivery term, taxes, return terms and any framing specification. We correct or clarify anything before payment. Ask when the paperwork will be ready.

4

Confirm and pay

You approve the written proposal and use an agreed payment method. We confirm cleared funds, title transfer, dispatch conditions and any staged-payment schedule. Request the payment terms in writing before proceeding.

5

Receive and install

We coordinate packing, insured transport and, where agreed, white-glove delivery or installation. You check the work on arrival and retain the invoice, certificate and condition record together. Request delivery timing for your destination before proceeding.

Read the evidence behind each step.

Questions buyers ask before proceeding

What if I change my mind?

Tell us as soon as possible. Before payment there is no obligation. After payment, cancellation and return rights depend on the written sale terms. Request the applicable cancellation and returns terms before payment.

Do I have to give my phone number?

No. Name, email, artwork reference and message are enough. A telephone or WhatsApp number is optional and will only be used for this enquiry unless you separately consent.

Will a price enquiry add me to a mailing list?

No. Enquiring about an artwork does not subscribe you. The collector list has a separate form and consent.

Can I see the work on my wall first?

Yes. Send a straight-on wall photograph and one known measurement. We will return a to-scale visualisation for your review, free and without obligation.

Is international delivery insured?

Studio 54 Fine Art coordinates insured worldwide delivery. The carrier, insured value, exclusions and delivery term must be confirmed in the written proposal for your destination.

What documents come with the work?

The sale should include an invoice and certificate of authenticity; a work-specific condition report and care note should also be confirmed. Ask the gallery to confirm the certificate contents and signatory before purchase.
