Christie's 20 Rockefeller Plaza New York, NY 10020 This prestigious auction house is located in the heart of Rockefeller Center. Throughout the year, different types of memorabilia are on display to the public before being auctioned. During my visit, I saw a wide variety of memorabilia from the Jim Irsay Collection. This included movie props, screenplays, music, sports, and autographs. I was especially impressed when I witnessed the Golden Ticket, a signed Babe Ruth baseball, and The Beatles drumset. Admission is free and complimentary cookies and coffee are served in the lobby. Due to the value of the merchandise, all visitors must pass through a metal detector. Large size bags are not allowed in the gallery, but they may be left at the Coat Check. The only disadvantage is that the exhibitions are temporary. If there is a specific exhibit you wish to view, drop everything and head over immediately before the souvenirs are sold. #jimirsaycollection #christiesnyc #christiesnycauction #rockefellercenternyc #christiesauction read more

Came here for an exhibit and it was alright. I'd say most of the stuff are overpriced for their auctions. Perhaps I am not wealthy?! ; ) read more

Self torture is looking at things I can't afford haha. This auction house does not disappoint. I easily spent 3 hours roaming the halls, sitting at times to immerse my thoughts (wondering what the artists life was actually like during the time they created these masterpieces). Since this is an auction house amd not a museum the collections you view change so there's always new items to see. It's free and no prior reservation is required (except for special events). Elevators , bathrooms , free cafe drinks (my cappuccino waa excellent)and water fountains everything to make your time there very enjoyable. The staff ( and there are many) very friendly and helpful. read more

Add this to your list of must do in NYC. It's free to visit Christie's auction house and they're extremely welcoming. They have a free coat check room. Their cafe offers free coffee/tea and biscotti. I had a good cappuccino. We headed upstairs to watch the live auction. Today they were auctioning off wines. We saw two auctioneers, each whitty and fun to watch. It was interesting watching the different bids come in. On each floor there is art and jewelry displayed, which will be auctioned off in the next 3-7 days. read more

If you didn't know, it's free to visit Christie's and Sotheby's auction houses. While us normies may not have the riches to spend hundreds of thousands or millions on rare artifacts, we can oggle and fantasize about how the other half live. Rare paintings, Eric Clapton's guitar, Jack Kerouac's original type scroll of On the Road, or an original letter signed by the founders of Apple, including Steve Jobs. These things likely won't find their way to a museum, so this might be your only chance to see these things before they go away into someone's private collection. I was worried I would feel out of place here, but the staff were helpful and I was able to wander and wonder without feeling weird. There is also a cafe and coat check. read more

Christie's maintains a very high standard of world class welcoming elegance and sophistication that is felt throughout their company from the ground up. Their staff and communications are premier class, generous, thoughtful, humble, and never pretentious. We recently had the most wonderful exchange with some of the online auction staff, and this reminded us how amazing your company is. Thank you for all of your hard work, and we enjoy viewing your amazing collections online marveling as the artistry and craftsmanship from around the world. Your curators always provide interesting descriptions and the photography is excellent. Your hard work does not go unnoticed. Thank you. read more

Truth be told I've never walked into Christie's ever before but when I learned that the legendary Sir Elton John was doing an auction of his Georgie home belongings, I just had to pay them a visit to browse around. So going in you'll see a coat check area where they seem to prefer you leave jackets and backpacks there but I stressed my carrying around camera gear so they let me hold onto mine. Right near the coat check was a small counter that served coffee and tea. I did not catch prices but someone mentioned that it was free of charge. If it is that's very nice. You are not permitted to carry such things into the gallery though. While this gallery was focused on the Sir Elton John Collection, the space is quite expansive and its like being in a museum when it all comes down to it. Elton's belongings were on all three floors of the space which was spotless clean and had staff at every turn who were super helpful. Three names came to mind during my adventure with Sloane, Maya and Kate. Each made sure that I knew about some of the more special items in the auction and since I was documenting for the website I maintain I was happy to have such pleasant guidance. There are bathrooms on every level and they are clean as a whistle, I also noticed a couple of water coolers and there is complimentary WiFi to access if you must do some messaging or social media on your journey. The downside was arriving to the Elton gallery on its final day so I would have to make sure I saw as much as possible. Now each auction is specific to the person but Elton's had a lot of stage clothes, paintings, photographs and sculptures. Two of the biggest highlights were his Bentley and a special edition pinball machine. My video is posted on my YouTube and also shared via the link below for those who might like it. Please pardon the shameless plug. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24dxKyZ7XVE Overall I hope to get here again for any auction that might resonate with my website audience. I highly recommend that NYC residents and visitors to the city alike pay them a visit. It's free and its impressive. I would advise that one gets there early since they close at 5PM and in the case of the Elton John exhibit, you might end up with a lot to see. read more

Very cool to walk through while they had the Asian collection on display before auction. We strolled through and admired the collection on the first floor after enjoying some of their free coffee, tea, and cookies. For something free to do this was honestly more fun than an art museum. An easy way to occupy an hour if you're already by the Rockefeller Center. read more

First time visiting and I was definitely impressed. My favorite piece from Christie's New York is the Property from the collection of Mahinder and Sharad Tak NATVAR BHAVSAR (B. 1934) Aanang, which estimated to be USD 100,000 - USD 150,000! Hopefully one day I'll can afford a collection from here! read more

Beware selling at Christie's your items, you must read the contract very carefully the fine print, you will have a five year refund in your contract this being said if they make a mistake on your item you will be in a bad position having to give Christies a full refund on the payment received from them even up to five years, Christie's does not explain their contract information when you bring them the items, it's almost impossible to consign a good expensive piece having them a few years later submit a complaint to you. Do not trust there opinion unless they remove the five year refund in the contract not having you be responsible for the mistake they make. It's possible you may have to sell your home to pay them back. Christies put all liability on the seller, even though they make the mistakes.Items sold in Sotheby's no issues great experts. Christie's will hold items on you if you do not give them a refund for further consignments rather than coming to a reasonable agreement. I suggest bringing your items to Sothebys or BonHams much better and will not harm you as Christie's will.......Holly in charge of the Asian department will not even forward you to the legal department to discuss the issue. She'd rather debate and smash the phone on you rather than resolve an issue. Terrible what has happened to a family member. Please beware sincerely a hurting mistake. This will be publicized throughout the world if this cannot be resolved. Facts with proof are available. Since they're terrible mistake that cannot be verified showing no documentation that it really truly is a mistake with other opinion, they made several mistakes in the past that have been sold, 100s of thousands of dollars sold elsewhere when they claimed it was not for their, sale items sold for many thousands elsewhere. read more

Christie's, we all know they are one of the largest Auction Houses in the world. They sell Van Goghs, Pollocks and antiques at auction. Their gallery is located at 20 Rock and is open to the general public. These pieces for auction are displayed here in New York as well as London for major pieces of art. The Rockefeller location is one of the most impressive places to view art and antiques before you make your bids on auction day. Yesterday I was here to view jewelry from the estate of Huguette Clark. Miss Clark died last year at the age of 109 and may be the last heiress to be associated with The Gilded Age. Even though she was born in 1906, her father was a major player in the growth of this country in the later part of the 19th century. They even named a county after the family name; "Clark County in Las Vegas, Nevada". After her death, Christie's became the Auction House for the jewelry of her estate. The collection on display has not seen the light of day since the 1940's when many of these pieces where place in a safety deposit box. Only after her death, have these pieces been displayed in public. Your looking at 70 years inside a bank vault for some beautiful pieces of Art Deco Jewelry. The heiress life has fascinated me for years and to be able to view some of her personal possessions; well, it intrigued me. I have never been to Christie's, but was impress with the number of experts available to show you her jewelry. About 30 pieces were on display; ranging in pre-auction estimates from $8 million to $1K. After serious consideration I am about to bid on one of these wonderful pieces. Not the 9 caret Pink Diamond or 44 carat Clark Diamond, but the smaller piece "A GROUP OF ROSE GOLD JEWELRY" I saw at $1K to $2K pre-auction estimate. Either way, it was a wonderful afternoon viewing how the other side lives. The jewelry today was outrageously beautiful with some pieces to be with "taste and grace"; others "how could you wear that in public". Christie's is a must visit for any New Yorker and visitor of my great city. read more

Little known gem in NYC that not many tourists have on their to-do list. It's an open auction house for the 1% who can afford the fine luxuries in life. However, for the 99% of us, we have the luxury of viewing the fine auction house for free! My favorite art at this gallery included work from Andy Warhol and Wayne Thiebaud. It's fun because everything is for sale, not like in the Metropolitan Museum of Art (not to be skipped, either). Jackson Pollock also had some artwork here too. A lot of famous pieces of art were here, which surprised me, since I figured they'd be in some museum uptown or in Chicago or DC, for instance the Andy Warhol's Campbell Soup cans, Madonna paintings, and Wayne Thiebaud's cake paintings. Pretty awe-inspiring. I'd recommend this gallery for any college student on a budget. Although the Met is free, they make you feel guilty by having recommended donation prices. However, at Christie's, you can just saunter around and not have to feel guilty. read more

I was interested in getting the catalog for the GETTY AUCTION . When I called the auction house directly IN NYC , I spoke with a who female representative. From the get go, she just couldn't wait to get me off the phone . Not only was this person rude , but she failed to inform me that there were 4 catalogs in this auction, when I thought there was only one . By the time I realized what occurred , the damage was done. All the catalogs were sold out . They recommended that I go to a third party to get the complete set . I went on Ebay to find that almost every seller , was asking a minimum if 150.00 per catalog, as opposed to the 35.00 Christies was selling each one for. HORRIBLE , JUST A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE . read more

Very fancy art galore! Super expensive though! Every items starts from 5000 and up.. the jewelries are goregous and unique. They have Hermes bags and other designers clothing. When I went to see the Hermes bags, the lady told me not to touch. They cost 30000 dollars! She said I will give you gloves.. I didn't like this. Its just a bag not gold! read more

I ventured in to Christie's this afternoon to see the display of jewelry from Huguette Clark's personal collection. The items being shown have been locked away in a safety deposit box since the 1940's. I was pleasantly surprised to also be able to view some photos of her and her family as well as her self portrait. While there we visited the Magnificent Jewels gallery and the Jewels For Hope collection. I found the galleries to be well laid out. There was a good amount of traffic throughout the galleries and the staff on hand were on point, friendly and helpful. What I loved the most was I felt like I was in a museum but without any admission. read more

One would have to say, "they have become too big for their britches". The mail in or shall I say email us what you have process is only for the, let me just say "Rich and Famous" one would assume after your items were repeatedly overlooked for months and months. The only time someone responds is after you threatening to escalate the issue to a higher department. The final conclusion after thee - four months: " Our specialists have carefully reviewed the information you provided. They have determined that your property does not fall into a Christie's sale category. (lol really, that's it? Hummm I really don't think so) Sale categories vary between departments and include item type, condition, sale values, and item location.  For this reason, our specialists are unable to provide an estimate. Although we cannot be of assistance at this time, we hope to be of service to you in the future. Kind regards, Celine Park" Then I guess it is rather true, NY is very much so ...... read more

I arranged for a family painting to be sold at auction. Communication by the Christie's employee was consistent leading up to the pick-up. Once the painting arrived to Christie's, the employee contacted me and told me the painting couldn't be sold; I responded immediately. It's been radio-silent since. I'm in the process of moving. If the painting isn't going to sell, it needs to be returned. Highly dishonest and unprofessional. read more

As far as I am concerned, luxury, rarity, and opulence can not be matched by any other auction house! Christies is the best in its field and their number prove their dominance in the market place! Just take a look around and you will see the most extraordinary things in the world. read more

Wanna see free art in Manhattan? Head here. As with the more interesting things one's subject to discover in New York, I stumbled past Christie's. I hadn't planned on stopping in, I hadn't even considered it. In fact, I did one of those walk past, second guess/regret-test turnarounds. You know those? When you've felt serendipity grab ahold of your judgement and guide you onto its tour bus. This was one of those take a seat type of moments. Thankfully I entertained the notion. There's almost always something interesting up for auction and on display. Art that is often privately owned and rarely on display, well known works of art (Mark Rothko, you're selling for HOW much these days?), famous collections of jewelry, letters from Winston Churchill. It's a mixed bag, and it's all free to wander. read more

Again, like Sotheby's, coming to Christie's is always an education in taste, beauty and gracious living. The recent Rockerfeller auction, actually in and at Rockerfeller Center, felt like a historic moment, and the end of an era. Staff here are knowledgeable, and keen to share their thoughts. The big art and jewlery auctions get a lot of press, and attention, but there are many items of furniture, and decorative art that come-out priced like comparable antique stores. FYI many antique dealers and high-end jewelers buy AT auction: wink-wink! So cut-out that middle-man (or woman,) Feel free to come in and soak-up the ambiance, and ritzy energy. Like they say, somewhere: "even a cat can look upon the Queen." read more

I never thought I would find myself at Christie's auction house, but there I was with my wife on a Thursday afternoon in early May for a private / memorable event. A fraction of the amazing art collection collected over a lifetime by Peggie and David Rockefeller was on display before being auctioned a few days later. The collection reflected the family's passion for Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works of art, American paintings, English and European furniture, Asian works of art, European ceramics and Chinese export porcelain, silver, and American decorative arts and furniture. Christie's staff were very friendly and open to answering our questions. Go to their website to see dates and times for their open-to-the public galleries. It's free, conveniently located near the Rockefeller Center and you will certainly see amazing artwork here! read more

When looking for home decor, there really is no other place to go than Christie's. That beautiful Ming dynasty vase that was used in the royal court? It's yours for the low, low, price of $150,000 to $200,000. Christie's is like a museum that sells its artifacts and artworks. read more

After battling the crazies waiting outside the VMAs and having a close encounter with a certain lady who goes by PINK, I finally made it to the opening reception of Asian Art Week at Christie's. Check in was a breeze and the smiling faces were very welcome after my tiff with the NYPD (they wanted me to go around 7th to come back to 5th?! PSHT) as were the freely flowing cocktails! Alright, on to the art. They've got such a great eclectic mix of stuff here, from the contemporary to the ancient, I do believe there is something for everyone. They let you roam freely and the atmosphere is fun and festive. Not that I'm rich or anything, but I think that for the people who are able to "shop" at Christie's, the prices are rather reasonable. I eyed an ancient Chinese jewelry chest but it was 4x my credit card limit... Like Sandy said, it's much better than going to a museum, especially since I always get hushed at those... People are having fun, drinking, and in the mood to spend some dough. Most importantly, the pieces are always changing and it may be the only chance you have to see them before they end up in some Park Avenue home! Let the bidding wars begin! read more

Christie's claims that they are willing to give free estimates. That is not so.

What is that supposed to mean? read more

When I'm planning a trip to NYC, I always check to see what is on at Christies. It is an auction house but also like a gallery. On one of my visits, I saw Elizabeth Taylor's items up for sale. They sold tickets as they do for this type of sale and it was quite amazing. They sell art, furniture, wines, jewelry and all kinds of things. It's an opportunity to see some artworks that may never been seen again as many are privately purchased and not displayed publicly. Even if you can't afford anything, it still is a great place where you can see unique art pieces or vicariously enjoy what it would be like to be ultra rich and own the things you'll see. read more

Dishonest advertising re: appraisals / valuation. They do neither. Don't waste your time filling out their online forms and sending photos..unless it is ONLY for Christie's to possibly accept your item for their auction. Rather than just saying that, they self-servingly mislead they will provide you appraisal service. Other houses do this too which doesn't make it right..and we would have expected more from you Christie's. There is also a self-importance or arrogance in dealing with the people there via phone that is both amusing and annoying. read more

Everyone who is in NYC has to make a day to visit to Christie's. It's truly heaven and magical.

Very convenient if you want to go see what you're purchasing before placing a bid by phone or online. Exceptionally friendly staff, beautiful art and furniture to look at and handle gently, and entertainment when auctions are taking place. If you have a computer it really makes little sense to go to the live auction unless you just want the experience of it. Can be used as a free and ever-changing museum too. read more

ALERT: RIP OFF! SCAMMED BY CHRISTIE'S AUCTION HOUSE FOR SELLING US A FAKE PAINTING! Yes it's true, on November 20, 1991 at the Latin American Art Auction in Manhattan, New York, Christie's Auction House employees puffed, inflated and misrepresented the authenticity of an original artwork by Wilfredo Lam, Auction #7362, Lot #50 and sold it to us at the auction. Christie's employees negligently misrepresented that the original oil on canvas painting named "Figuras Cariberias" was painted by Wilfredo Lam in the 1950's, during his prime years and was going to be a masterpiece. At the auction, we received from Christie's a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) issued by the artists' ex-wife, Helena Benitez (formerly Helena Lam). Can you believe it, Christie's says that on November 20, 1991 the painting was AUTHENTIC and they were happy to sell it to us for $88,000, but today September 10, 2014, 23 years later Christie's says the painting is NOT AUTHENTIC and they will not resell it for us. Yes you heard right, when Christie's sold it to us it was authentic, but was not authentic when we wanted them to resell it. When we approached Christie's to make good on their mistake Christie's response was to delay and prevaricate. Christie's did say we would have a better chance to approach the Lam Foundation and force them to authenticate the artwork. The Lam Foundation refused to authenticate the painting and has ignored all our requests and correspondence. Knowing in advance that the Lam Foundation is controlled by the son of Wilfredo Lam's deceased third wife who was not on good terms with Helena Benitez Lam it became obvious that the foundation would not authenticate the painting even if they knew it was authentic. Their answer was that the artwork was not authentic without doing an investigation, having any reasonable explanation or providing expert analysis. Instead the door was shut and case closed. Politics and Corruption! Helena Benitez was the recognized world renowned expert during the time period in which the artwork was painted. It was recognized that she would authenticate artworks during the time period between 1930 and 1959. Lou Laurin-Lam the third and final wife would authenticate artwork after 1960. Both women are now deceased so they cannot comment or defend themselves. The son of Lou Laurin-Lam, Eskil Lam now controls the Lam Foundation and will not authenticate the painting for selfish personal reasons. The artwork does not appear in Wilfredo Lam's published 2007 "Catalogue Raisonne of the Painted Work of Wilfredo Lam", because the foundation under Eskils' control created this catalog only choosing the artwork to be placed into the catalog. Now you are probably getting the picture why Lam's most famous painting was not in the catalog because it was not painted during the Lou Laurin-Lam years, Helena Benitez is deceased and the Lam Foundation will not even attempt to authenticate it. So while the painting was authentic in 1991 it's not authentic in 2014 and Christie's has the nerve to dictate to us that things change and too bad tough luck. Does it sound like total corruption by these professionals in the art world? They obviously don't care about their reputation, do they? How did this all get started? I approached Mr. Ramon Cernuda of Cernuda Arte in Coral Gables, Florida by email to see how much we could possibly get by selling the painting through his connections. He is considered the renowned expert to speak to when buying and selling Cuban Art. The first thing he said was this painting was not authentic and a forgery. He was shocked that Christie's sold this painting at the 1991 auction. He also said that Helena Benitez Lam told him that she was sorry to certify this painting. Mr. Cernuda said he will prove it in court. After those communications, I immediately called Jessica Katz of Christie's in Coral Gables, Florida whom after a few hours called me to let me know the painting was not authentic and Christie's would not resell what they sold to us. She said things change over time and what was authentic then may not be now. So when they sold it to us it was authentic, but when we tried to resell it was fake. Wow, can you believe it? So I called Christie's in-house counsel in Manhattan, New York and after 4 weeks of their investigation we find them ignoring us and refusing to deal with the truth and instead trying to fabricate the facts of the constructive fraud induced upon us. Christie's defense? Christie's will tell you that they have a 5 year statute of limitations. However, there is plenty of precedent in the Federal Court of the Southern District in New York, where the statute of limitation has been broken. For example, if we are not expert art dealers or collectors but a person of ordinary intelligence and prudence and Christie's puffed the authenticity of the artwork for sale, the injury to us is not recognized at the time of deliver but at the ti read more

If you can't afford to buy or have nothing to sell then all-you have left is a great opportunity to come so very close with some of the best artists of all times and all for the incredible sum of 0$ !!! If you think this is not incredible you are out of this world!!!!! Their sales are incredible . This week I visited when they were exhibiting the 20th Century auction sale, I stepped in, no lines and no ticket and after few yards I had one Monet on the left and one Picasso on the right so so close that I could see all of the wonderful strokes and the vivid colors. I felt incredibly lucky, yes lucky to be able to witness these master artworks so thank you so much Christie 's !!! Then this week there was a special painting up for sale to be said to belong to Leonardo Da Vinci the Salvator Mundi. Yes there was a dedicated long line for this but If I think people get in line to go see infinity rooms then I am happy I wasted my time in line for Da Vinci! read more

Totally scammed is how I feel. My grandfather left me an old Rolex Submariner watch that I soon learned was pretty valuable. So I started doing a lot of searching on the internet and soon realized that there were quite a few reputable dealers who dealt in the old, vintage Rolex watches. I sent them a few good photos and they were able to make me a purchase offer. One of these dealers from Texas offered me $45,000 cash. I then reached out to Christies to get a valuation from them. I know they have been around a long time and felt like I could trust them with this valuable watch. Was I ever wrong. They don't buy watches outright but instead auction them off a couple of times a year in their office in New York. So what they instead offered me was an "auction estimate" which in my case was only $10,000 to $20,000, with the $10,000 being minimum price that it could sell at. no less. I forget what they called it. After I told the Christies representative that I had already had a cash offer of $45,000, she quickly replied that I shouldn't worry because she said my watch would end up selling for much much higher - over $50,000. But when I kept asking why there was such a low minimum and that it made me uncomfortable, she quickly eased my mind by saying over and over how it will sell for more. Well as it turns out, my watch did not sell for over $50,000. In fact, it sold for only just over $20,000 leaving me with $25,000 less than I would have if I had taken the dealers offer of $45,000. Plus, I had to pay them a sellers commission fee and other related costs. And it took me almost 4 months to finally get a check from them. I would have been much better off taking that dealers offer. These are just my opinions of course. I don't feel as though I was lied to or anything but I do feel cheated. I should have insisted that the minimum be raised to at least the $45,000 that I had already been offered. Or better yet just have taken the offer from Texas. I am just sharing my experience but in my opinion don't trust the auction method. Not if you have a good offer in hand. Its too risky and you can't predict how it will end up. read more

My first time coming here for a lecture and reception for the Chinese Fine Arts auction preview. I have to say they have a very nice space and have a larger selection of Chinese Art than what I've seen at Sotheby's during this time of the year (September Asian Week). The reception was run well with top shelf alcohol and food. They seemed to have a larger staff to help you with questions than what I've seen at Sotheby's...not to say Sotheby's is a bad place. My friends were running the lecture and curating the event on the contemporary Chinese Art side and I have to say they did a good job. Not saying this because they are my friends. :) read more

Even that the place is nice looking on the inside, the staff there is not very talkative and, unlike the Sotheby's people, is not very helpful or knowledgeable appearing. I could not pull out of them where the exhibits take place and if there were any. all i could find was a live auction in progress. So i don't know about this place, i might have to re-visit if i'm in the neighborhood. IF! read more

Pretty amazing that you can just walk in and look at some rare and amazing pieces ranging in price from a few thousand to a few million. As an art collector I didn't see any pieces I would purchase today, but I hear they are constantly selling and adding new pieces. So if you appreciate art like me and want some free entertainment and coffee - be sure to put this on your bucket list while in New York. read more

I went to the Elizabeth Taylor preview a couple of days ago. The display of her clothing, accessories, costumes, jewelry and movie memorabilia was incredible, and very well displayed. Whomever curated this show did an incredible job! The lighting and displays were fantastic and really enhanced all of the devine pieces. My only hesitation for giving this display a higher rating is because the staff was so pushy and stern. I understand they have a job to do, and the objects being displayed are precious, but the people that paid to see this preview were civilized, upscale and polite. There was no need to be pushy and rude. The staff could have been friendlier and more accomodating. Otherwise, it was well worth the price of admission to see Liz Taylor's awesome objects! read more

First to review! If you like to see art without paying an admission fee, stop by. There's plenty to see such as, Post War/Contemporary Art, Impressionist & Modern, South East Asian, 20th Century Decorative Art, Classical American Paintings, American Furniture, Old Masters Paintings & Drawings, Jewelry, Watches, European Art, Tribal Art, Latin American, and the list goes on! Check out the website to see what's currently on exhibit, it changes every week. It's better than going to a Museum and you'll see art collections that may never be seen again. read more
