Exceptional properties.
Art advisory.
Curated European experiences.
A private European house for collectors, aesthetes and international clients — between the Riviera, Venice, Paris and Provence.
Art & Vault is a private European house. Neither agency, nor gallery, nor catalogue: a world entrusted to a few families, around three inseparable practices — exceptional real estate, art advisory, and confidential cultural experiences.
A villa above the Riviera, a Venetian palazzo, a Paris hôtel particulier, a work acquired slowly, a dinner inside a foundation closed to the public: the elements of a cultivated life, gathered under a single interlocutor. Discreet, international, exacting.

Composing a collection as one writes a library.
Old Masters, twentieth-century modernity, sculpture, contemporary art. We accompany the slow making of a collection, the arbitrage of works, their conservation and their transmission — with museum-grade rigour and the discretion of a private house.

- — Curation and in-situ hanging
- — Conservation, expertise & restoration
- — Estate advisory & transmission
Residences that never reach the window.
Villas on the Riviera, Venetian palazzi, Provençal estates, Paris hôtels particuliers and wine domains. We accompany the acquisition, architectural curation and transmission of rare properties — always off-market, always by introduction.
- — Villas, seaside residences & estates
- — Historic palazzi and hôtels particuliers
- — Off-market acquisitions, without intermediaries
- — Architectural restoration and interiors
A single world, quietly woven — art, stone, and the light of the South.
Each practice answers the others. A garden in Provence becomes the setting for a sculpture; a Venetian palazzo holds a private collection; a Riviera villa opens onto a foundation visit. One sensibility, woven across places.
