Return Policy
Davidson Galleries fully guarantees every work to be an authentic work of art as described. In the event that it is demonstrated by a qualified professional in the field that an item has been misrepresented, a full refund will be granted. Because we work with artists and consignors who get paid according to which works are sold, Davidson Galleries is unable to offer a cash refund for items returned beyond 7 days of purchase. Returns for gallery credit may be made up to 90 days after purchase. Under some circumstances, Davidson Galleries offers the option to take works out of the gallery on approval. Please inquire for more information about this process.
