Our Company

Founded in 2022, Marcopolo Auctions was established as a reference point in Italy for the consultancy, appraisal, and brokerage of Asian art, which remains our flagship specialty. Thanks to the trust of collectors and sellers and the results achieved in just a few years, we have become a recognized auction house, known for the expertise of our specialists, the transparency of our procedures, and a solid international network connecting museums, cultural institutions, investors, and private collectors.

Today, we look to the future with a broader vision: while maintaining our focus on Asian art, we have developed new departments dedicated to Decorative Arts, Design, Wunderkammer, Clocks, and Luxury, expanding our reach into areas that engage with contemporary collecting and an international perspective. This evolution reflects our commitment to interpreting the global market dynamically, valuing rare, curious, and high-quality objects at the crossroads of art, history, and culture. With our presence between the main office and ongoing activity in Rome, we are able to provide direct, qualified, and personalized service to both Italian and international clients.
