Recent Highlights from Maak
What We Do
Maak presents a series of carefully curated auctions throughout the year, led by our principal Contemporary Ceramics sales in May and November. These are complemented by specialist focus auctions, including Contemporary Craft and Japanese Studio Ceramics as well as Single Owner sales.
Alongside our auctions, we offer private sales and bespoke advisory services working with private collectors and institutions — combining deep market knowledge with a thoughtful, personal approach.
Whether you're a first-time buyer, a long-time collector, or looking to sell a treasured collection, we provide tailored support every step of the way.
Where We Work
Our head office is nestled in rural Berkshire, with our auctions taking place at our central London gallery.
Our specialist team travels regularly across the UK and internationally, working closely with clients around the world. We combine the advantages of our online auction platform with a personalised, client-focused approach.
Why Choose Maak
We don’t just sell ceramics — we celebrate them.
From market-defining auctions — including The Dr John P. Driscoll Collection, The Shipley Collection and Heritage in Contemporary Craft | The Collection of Victoria, Lady de Rothschild — to our ongoing commitment to educate and inspire through the Maak Foundation, we’re shaping a sustainable and vibrant future for contemporary ceramics and craft.
Our clients trust us for our transparency, integrity and shared passion — delivered through a tailored service that is always calm, considered, and built on years of specialist knowledge.
