Your Art Collection Starts in Sedona

Yoruba Beaded Sword

Have you ever wanted to own a piece of history? Collecting ancient artifacts and famous artists’ work requires a knowledge of the pieces you are looking to collect. At James Ratliff Gallery, within Hillside Sedona, owner, James Ratliff has been buying and selling the art of famous artists such as O’Keefe, Gorman, Calder and Zuniga (just to name a few) for over 30 years.
 
Due to James Ratliff’s love of the old as well as the new, the gallery does have a Collectors Corner, featuring original pieces from around the world.  Some of these pieces are so rare, the artist isn’t known, but the authenticity is vouched for. The ‘BWA Rooster Plank Mask’ is one of those pieces. Another would be a ‘Yoruba Beaded Sword with Encasement’.
