Rago is a leading auction house serving thousands of buyers and sellers annually in the fields of Fine Art, Design, Studio Pottery, Contemporary Glass, Jewelry and more.

Our broad range of expertise, global audience, and dedication to client service sets us apart in the industry.

Since our founding in 1984, Rago has become an internationally known venue through which to buy and sell works in a broad range of fields. Not only are we a world-class auction house, we sell works privately, provide insurance evaluations and appraisals for personal property, and offer estate and collection management services.

Rago was founded by David Rago, the preeminent expert in the field of American ceramics and art pottery. David began dealing in American decorative ceramics at the age of seventeen; he has authored several titles on the subject, lectures nationally and has appeared regularly on the PBS series, The Antiques Roadshow, since its inception in 1996.

With more than five decades of experience handling 20th and 21st century works, he and partner Suzanne Perrault, another regular on The Antiques Roadshow, and their team of qualified specialists, researchers, and property handlers have distinguished Rago as the top venue for American ceramics as well as for the sale of fine art, modern design, decorative arts, fine jewelry, contemporary glass, and silver.

Rago is conveniently located in Lambertville, New Jersey and easily accessible from neighboring major cities including New York and Philadelphia. Two buildings, that are minutes apart on North Main Street, are home to our offices, warehouses and preview spaces. All auctions take place at our facility located at 333 North Main Street.
