Building an authenticated resale marketplace for art and design.

Journeyhorizon developed Finer Finer around the resale of art and design objects, including an in-house authentication process and a custom checkout experience.

Platform and marketplace model

Finer Finer is a specialized two-sided resale marketplace dedicated to works of art and design, providing a trusted platform where buyers can acquire unique items from sellers with the added assurance of an authentication verification service.This marketplace connects collectors, designers, and art enthusiasts with sellers offering high-quality, authentic pieces.

In this marketplace:

• Sellers - who are typically collectors, artists, or dealers - create detailed listings for their art and design pieces, including descriptions, images, and pricing. Each item listed undergoes an authentication verification process to ensure its authenticity, adding an extra layer of trust and security to the transaction.
• Buyers, who are collectors or enthusiasts looking for verified art and design pieces, browse these listings and purchase items directly through the platform.

The transaction process on Finer Finer involves a direct purchase model, where buyers select items from the listings, and payment is securely processed through the platform.

The platform’s commitment to authenticity and quality makes it a premier destination for those looking to buy and sell fine art and design pieces.
