Jenna Burlingham Gallery makes buying art straightforward and enjoyable
Thanks to our extensive collection of Modern British and Contemporary art, we can offer paintings, prints, sculpture, and ceramics from both respected artists and newer names. Whether you are looking at one or multiple works, we are very happy to offer advice on placement, framing, delivery, installation, etc. We have a breadth of media, styles, and genres, so if you would like suggestions then do ask via email info@jennaburlingham.com, or phone 01635 298855, Monday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm.
Visiting the Galleries
We have two large gallery buildings next door to each other in Kingsclere, and a further loft and cottage in the same courtyard that are also used to display artworks, all illustrated on the 'Gallery Tour' tab of the website.
The complex of buildings totals over 4,000 sq ft, with 10 rooms in the main gallery alone. Visits can take anywhere from a few minutes to two-hours plus. We have plenty of loos, places to sit, and you are welcome to a drink - do just ask! There is a wheelchair ramp available that will allow entry to all our ground floor galleries, though we do not have any ramps or lifts for first floor rooms.
It is always best to see works in person, so do let us know if you are planning a to visit to view something as it may be out of the gallery.
If you cannot get to the gallery then we can arrange for you to see artworks elsewhere or borrow them in your home. It is very simple to arrange and please contact us for details.
Exploring the Website
Everything on the website is for sale, unless it is listed as 'Sold' and shows a red dot beside the title.
Everything on the website is framed, unless 'Unframed' is written before the medium.
Clicking on an artwork will open further details, including a large image, a description, its history, literature, and a framed image showing the presentation.
Our artworks can be accessed in two ways from the navigational bar: 'Artists', a list of creators by surname, and 'Artworks', individual works sorted into six categories, which can be further narrowed by size or price.
Our Artworks categories are: 'Modern British', secondary market originals, largely created in the 20th century; 'Contemporary', primary market works by our living artists; 'Prints', editions by Modern British and living artists; 'Sculpture', 3-dimensional works of art in a range of media; 'Ceramics', objects by potters and studios including the Aldermaston Pottery; 'Under £5,000', all works from any period or media available for under £5,000.
Once on any category pages, you can Sort by 'Price low-high'. You can also limit to Price Ranges of 'Up to £1,000'; 'Between £1,001 to £5,000'; 'Between £5,001 to £10,000'; 'Between £10,001 to £50,000'; or 'Over £50,000'.
From any Artworks category, limiting to a Size Range of 'Small' is for works under 60 cm wide; 'Medium' is between 61 and 122 cm; 'Large' is 123 to 213 cm; 'Very Large' is anything over this.
All dimensions showing are the artwork itself - the support, e.g. canvas, board, paper, etc. - and do not include the frame.
If you would like framed dimensions - or further images - of anything, then do ask as everything is to hand.
A search function can be accessed using the magnifying glass symbol on the navigational border at the top of every page.
Buying Art
Buying directly from our website is a simple process available for anything with a 'Purchase' button.
Everything under £5,000 is available for online sale, together with Contemporary works inside of £8,000. The price is listed above the Purchase button.
Clicking Purchase will add the item to your cart and you can either 'View Cart & Checkout' or continue shopping, adding further items to the cart to a value of £8,000.
If any works, or your total, are over £8,000 then we will require you to contact the gallery to confirm your identity before proceeding with a sale. This is required by the Government under AMLD regulations, much like an estate agent or banker.
If you would rather discuss any works with us before purchasing, please click the Enquire button or email/call the gallery direct.
Payments
Paying online for items in your cart simply requires you to enter your contact information, a shipping address, and card details for payment to be processed using Stripe.
You will receive an automatic email from us to confirm the sale and soon afterwards, our logistics specialist will be in contact to confirm delivery options, as below.
For purchases made outside of this online system, we will send you an invoice that includes our bank account details for paying in GBP.
We can, by request, send a payment link that will allow you to settle online using a debit or credit card. Most cards are accepted and we can advise on any surcharges.
If you would like to pay in instalments, we can arrange this and then deliver the artwork(s) once settled.
International Payments
We make regular international sales so the process is often very simple.
If you would like to settle in USD or EUR, then we have other accounts to pay in those currencies, without conversion fees.
As above, payments can be made online, by account transfer, or via a payment link. Most cards are accepted and we can advise on any surcharges.
UK Deliveries
Mainland UK delivery is free for all purchases over £800.
A UK delivery will most often be via one of our trusted specialist art couriers to your door within one week, though often quicker.
Our logistics team will contact you via email to arrange a suitable time, often a Tuesday or Wednesday if you are based in London.
Artworks will be inspected and amended before they leave us, though there maybe some marks or scuffs on frames, particularly if they are older or original examples.
Artworks travelling with our couriers will be wrapped in a single layer of strong bubble-wrap. We re-use most of what comes back to us, so this may have a few nicks and scuffs. Our bubble-wrap can be recycled with bags and other soft plastics at larger supermarkets.
Though we try to avoid postal services, some small deliveries may be sent using these third-parties, though we will always let you know.
If for any reason you are not ready to take delivery immediately, just let us know and we will put your items safely aside until you are ready. Though if it is to be over 3 weeks please discuss this with us.
US and International Deliveries
We regularly ship to the USA and Europe, so can provide competitive quotes for delivery there or to other destinations. Delivery will be arranged via email in a timely manner after your purchase.
After Buying
All our works are authentic and come with the guarantee of the gallery. However, if you would like any paperwork reiterating this, e.g. a Certificate of Authenticity, we are happy to provide you with one. You will need to request this as it is not a usual part of our process.
We operate our tax on the Margin Scheme, so there is no VAT to pay on top of quoted artwork prices and none that can be claimed back. For more information please click
here.
We want you to have an enjoyable experience and look to build lasting relationships, so if there is anything with which you feel uncomfortable, do let us know.
Selling Art
If you have a painting, print, sculpture, or ceramic that you would like to have valued for sale, interest or probate, do let us know.
We are always keen to source Modern British artworks from collections and have a flexible and straightforward approach to both consignments and purchases.
Advice can be given with no obligation and we will often arrange visits to see works first hand.
Feel free to ask if you have specific questions or need recommendations!
