Consignment Services
Stenella Antiques & Interiors offers consignment services for clients wishing to sell furniture pieces consistent with our current inventory and offerings. Acceptable items will include but not limited to, clean pieces by Henkel Harris, Kindel, Karges, Stickley, EJ Victor and other similar high quality manufactures. Items must be approved prior to drop-off or pickup. We are looking for well cared for, quality furniture to be offered for sale through on our website, 3rd party marketplaces or on display in one of our showrooms. Commission rates are 40%, which includes minor cleanup, photography, marketing, and all selling fees from the multiple third party selling platforms we use. Also includes all payment processing, storage and shipping logistics for buyers. Shipping to our warehouse and additional repair work that may be needed (missing glass, wood repairs, more detailed touch-up, upholstery etc.) would be extra charge and not included in the standard commission rate. Stenella Antiques & Interiors can also front shipping costs so the seller does not have to pay any additional expense prior to sale. The cost for these services can be deducted from the seller's account once items are sold.
Stenella Antiques & Interiors will always try to offer items in their best possible, ready for home use condition, to ensure the best fair market price. Upon request, we can provide a rough estimate of approximate values that a seller can expect to have their items listed and sold for. Prices are usually listed for several weeks and slightly lowered until the actual sale price is met by the buyer. From many years of expertise and selling in the furniture business, Stenella Antiques & Interiors is very up to date and in touch with today's values of the goods offered. We strive to obtain the best results for our sellers, while offering fine customer service, shipping and additional services for our buyers. Our goal is to sell items in a timely manner and get proceeds to the sellers and their estates promptly.
If you wish to proceed with selling your items via consignment, please let us know and we can mail you a consignment contract and arrange for pickup or drop-off of your items. Thank you for the opportunity to be able to service your liquidating needs.
