1. About Arden Gallery
We specialize in collecting and presenting vintage and antique hand-painted oil paintings from around the world, dating from the 1800s to the 1980s. Each artwork carries its own traces of time, hand-painted texture, and artistic warmth.
2. About Arden Gallery
Arden Gallery is an online gallery dedicated to vintage hand-painted oil paintings and classic decorative art.
We are based in Hong Kong and work with collectors, suppliers, and private collections to source unique vintage artworks from around the world.
Each piece is carefully selected for its artistic character, hand-painted texture, and sense of age. These works are not modern mass-produced decorative paintings, but vintage artworks with unique historical traces and handmade warmth.
Due to their age, some artworks may show light scratches, craquelure, oxidation, fading, dust, or natural wear. We consider these signs of time to be part of the authentic charm of vintage oil paintings.
3. What We Curate
With over 30 years of experience in the art and vintage painting industry, we have developed a broad and carefully curated collection covering a wide range of subjects and styles. Today, our collection includes more than 2,000 vintage paintings, allowing collectors and interior decorators to find unique pieces for different spaces, tastes, and decorative needs.
Vintage Landscape Paintings
We carefully select vintage oil paintings featuring European countryside scenes, lakes, forests, streets, rivers, harbors, and natural landscapes. These works are suitable for living rooms, entryways, studies, and curated collection spaces.
Still Life & Floral Art
We collect floral paintings, fruit still lifes, decorative objects, and classical still life compositions. These works bring a warm, delicate, and elegant decorative feeling to any space.
Animal, Portrait & Religious Art
We also collect animal subjects such as horses, dogs, rabbits, and birds, as well as portraits, religious themes, and classic European-style artworks.

Vintage Character
Light scratches, craquelure, oxidation, or natural wear are authentic traces left by time.
Professional Packing & Shipping
Each artwork is carefully reinforced and packed according to its size, frame, and material, making it suitable for international shipping.
6. Our Curation Philosophy
We believe that a good vintage oil painting is more than wall decoration. It is an artwork that can transform the atmosphere of a space.
It may have come from a studio, gallery, home, or private collection decades ago. Over time, the painting surface, frame, colors, and texture develop their own unique historical traces.
When selecting artworks, Arden Gallery does not only focus on whether a piece is visually beautiful. We also consider its overall character, frame pairing, hand-painted texture, sense of age, and decorative effect within an interior space.
7. About Vintage Condition
As most of our artworks are vintage hand-painted oil paintings, some paintings and frames may show light scratches, dust, small chips, craquelure, oxidation, fading, edge wear, or natural signs of aging.
These conditions are not considered quality issues, but natural characteristics formed over time. We consider them part of the authentic age, character, and unique charm of each vintage artwork.
We do our best to present the true condition of every piece through real photos, 4K high-resolution images, and videos. All product images are taken from the actual item. The artwork you receive will match the piece shown in the photos, allowing you to clearly view the painting, frame, details, and natural traces of time before purchase.
8. Packing & Worldwide Shipping
Each artwork is inspected before shipment and reinforced according to its frame, painting material, and size.
We typically use protective film, corner protectors, cushioning materials, and reinforced cartons to help reduce the risk of impact during transportation.
