Terms & Conditions
Last updated: March 2026
1. Introduction
These terms and conditions govern your use of the Hanga House website (www.hangahouse.com) and the services provided by Hanga House (“we”, “us”, “our”). By accessing or using our website, you agree to be bound by these terms. Hanga House operates as an authenticated marketplace for investment-grade contemporary prints and editions.
2. Definitions
“Buyer” means any person who submits an enquiry to purchase a work listed on the platform. “Seller” means any person who consigns a work for sale through Hanga House. “Work” means any print, edition, or artwork listed on the platform. “Authentication” refers to our seven-step verification process applied to all works before listing.
3. Buying
All works listed on Hanga House have been authenticated through our seven-step verification process. When you submit an enquiry, we will provide a full condition report and provenance summary within 24 hours. A purchase is not binding until both parties have agreed to the terms of sale in writing. All prices are listed in GBP unless otherwise stated. Prices are subject to change without notice until a sale is confirmed.
4. Selling & Consignment
Sellers may submit works for consignment through our submission form. We reserve the right to decline any submission that does not meet our authentication standards. Our commission is 10–15% of the final sale price, agreed in writing before listing. There are no upfront fees or listing charges. The seller warrants that they are the rightful owner of the work and have full authority to sell it.
5. Authentication & Condition
While we take every reasonable care to authenticate and accurately describe each work, Hanga House does not guarantee the absolute authenticity of any work. Our authentication process is conducted in good faith using industry-standard methods including provenance research, certificate verification, physical inspection, edition verification, expert consultation, and market cross-referencing. Condition reports are provided to buyers before purchase and reflect our honest assessment at the time of inspection.
6. Payment
Payment is due within 7 days of sale confirmation. We accept bank transfer and other payment methods as agreed. Sellers receive payment within 14 business days of the buyer’s payment clearing, less our agreed commission.
7. Intellectual Property
All content on this website, including text, images, design elements, and logos, is the property of Hanga House or its licensors. Artwork images are displayed with the permission of the rights holders. You may not reproduce, distribute, or use any content from this website without our prior written consent.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hanga House shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform or any transaction conducted through it. Our total liability for any claim shall not exceed the commission received by Hanga House for the relevant transaction.
9. Governing Law
