How is Relics different from other auction houses?  

Relics combines the prestige of a traditional auction house but with Fandiem’s proven charitable fundraising engine. It’s the only auction marketplace designed for both profit and purpose, powered by storytelling and an engaged fanbase of over 2.5 million fans.

How does it work?  

Artists or estates provide one item or an entire collection. Relics handles authentication, preservation, photography, listing, marketing, sale, and fulfillment. Fans bid or buy directly, and proceeds are distributed either to the artist, a chosen charity, or both.

How are items authenticated?  

All Relics are authenticated via our authentication partner Definitive, with full documentation, provenance verification, and blockchain registration where applicable.

Can proceeds go to charity?  

Absolutely. Relics integrates Fandiem’s nonprofit infrastructure and donor-advised fund, enabling artists to direct some or all proceeds to a cause of their choice.
