The care and protection of works of art is, by definition, something not to be taken lightly. As the values of works by the young and edgy artists of the 70's and 80's has skyrocketed, we frequently find ourselves handling works that are inherently unstable yet very valuable. Add to this the current penchant for large and unwieldy works and we are no longer dealing with a straightforward oil on canvas in a gilt frame.
In as much as we rely on our foreign art transport agents, we have for many years provided a reliable US partnership for several high-profile and well regarded international art transporters. This symbiotic relationship has been a large part of our growth, our learning and has helped raise the bar as regards the position we now find ourselves at within the industry.
A stable, clean, and controlled environment is key to art storage and that's exactly what Aiston can provide. Offering 25,000 square feet of climate controlled storage across three individual warehouses Aiston can accommodate all art and design needs. Aiston has facilities that are both a short trip from the center of Manhattan and The Hamptons.
Whether it be part of a business transaction, an inspection for valuation, an assessment for conservation or an opportunity to photograph works, the quality of a viewing space can be of paramount importance. We have invested in a space worthy of any Manhattan gallery, in which to securely and discretely view works in storage with us, or newly received by us for this express purpose.

They give no details of a damaged package with items that are impossible to damage because their old boxes of food there is no glass or plastic in my packages everything went through up until 2:32 p.m. then they write that there was damaged and they would try to redeliver I call UPS and they said now they sent it back to Amazon and I have to wait until they contact Amazon for them to let them know what was damaged when I already called Amazon and Amazon told me to call them so they're sending me in circles UPS is not reliable
