THE WORLD'S FIRST EVER PERMANENT ULTRA LUXURY RETAIL DESTINATION BY AN AUCTION HOUSE
A Luxurious Multichannel Shopping Experience
It is the first time an auction house, opens a permanent cross-category luxury destination that offers clients a multichannel shopping experience featuring the world’s most coveted ultra-luxury brands. Not only does The Salon offer products that are from the most desirable brands in luxury, it also presents items with extraordinary provenance.

Sotheby's and Bucherer Certified Pre-Owned: a unique partnership
The Salon is the latest in a series of innovations between Sotheby’s and Bucherer, building the success of their earlier collaborations in New York and Switzerland with in-store activations and offering of Bucherer’s Certified Pre-Owned Watches inventory on Sotheby’s online marketplace. The Salon at Bucherer is the result of over two years of careful planning and a shared vision to create a truly differentiated experience for collectors and shoppers in the art and luxury space.
