Koller‘s specialty is mainly modern, Swiss, 19th century, and impressionist art. The auction house also offers a number of other specialty departments, including books, silver, jewelry, carpets, wine, and design.

Koller auction house was founded in 1958 by Pierre Koller in Zurich as a gallery that sells equestrian engravings and antique furniture. Throughout time, with the addition of Asian Art and porcelain, clocks, furniture and modern art, including Swiss and international artists such as Ferdinand Hodler and Eugène Boudin, Koller auction house grew into Switzerland’s leading auction house with locations worldwide including China, France, Germany, and Australia.

Now run by Pierre Koller’s son Cyril Koller, the auction house is especially renowned for unveiling the value of unknown or underappreciated works. In 2008, Koller identified the previously unknown Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder work, which sold for £3.61 million. Previously, in 1999, Koller identified a Joachim Wtewael oil on copper work, and sold it for £2 million.
