Jakobowicz&Associes

Jakobowicz & Associés is an auction house based in Vaux-le-Pénil, serving Melun and the surrounding area in Seine-et-Marne. Led by auctioneer Maître Matthias Jakobowicz, who took over the Hôtel des Ventes de Melun in 2010, the firm holds more than 60 auctions each year across a broad range of specialties. Sales feature jewellery, silverware, paintings, works of art, furniture, design, rugs, vehicles, professional equipment and business stock, alongside collectibles such as coins, stamps, books, photographs, toys and musical instruments. Auctions are held mainly on Saturdays, with selected sales scheduled at other times, and are broadcast live through Interenchères.

The firm offers free, confidential, no-obligation verbal valuations by appointment at its auction premises. Maître Jakobowicz and specialists can also travel to prepare valuations for estates, guardianships and curatorships, as well as inventories for insurance, division or voluntary sale. For sellers, the team provides detailed inventories and can agree a reserve price below which an item will not be sold.
