The LAPADA Code of Conduct includes the fair and accurate labelling and pricing of all works in the gallery, and clear information regarding any major restoration or alteration work that has been carried out to a work. Our membership of LAPADA and commitment to its Code of Conduct, gives our buyers confidence when purchasing a work from us.
