fettes fine art (formerly The Auld Kirk Gallery) was founded in 1991 with the unique intention of showing original fine Scottish and Modern British Art in a home environment rather than the traditional surroundings of a regular gallery space. It is interesting that more than 25 years later the major auction houses, regarded by by many as the top of the retail market, are adopting the same approach to encourage even fiercer bidding.
The difference of course between the auction house and the private gallery is that here you are able to peruse and purchase artworks at your leisure, all of which have been carefully selected for their quality and value.
fettes fine art is open by appointment only (and not just 9-5), in which enables the art lover to enjoy a more relaxed and private viewing experience. We offer a bespoke luxury art consultation service, and any works that are of interest can often be delivered, hung and enjoyed for an agreed period without any obligation to purchase.
fettes fine art has never been about short term gain, but about a long term relationship.
The Gallery is happy to consider part exchange and can offer advice on all aspects of your collection, including framing, insurance, valuations, conservation and disposal through a variety of options.
Our location in the centre of Edinburgh’s main art district is also convenient for exploring the many other fine galleries offering original art from Old Masters to Contemporary works, including The Fine Art Society, The Scottish Gallery, and The Arusha Gallery.
Please do not hesitate to contact us should you be visiting Edinburgh and wish to view over a hundred works by Scottish and Modern British Masters.
We look forward to welcoming you to fettes fine art.
