The Barakat Gallery is a fifth generation family owned and operated business, founded in Jerusalem over 100 years ago.

The Gallery is a purveyor of museum quality ancient art specializing in Classical antiquities, Near Eastern, Biblical, Chinese, Pre-Columbian, Byzantine, Asian, African and Primitive arts. We also specialize in ancient Numismatics and fine jewelry.

Our clientele is varied, including museums, corporations, private collectors and investors from all over the world.

For the past century, the Barakat Family has been fortunate to have assisted in the formation of some of the most important art collections in the world.

Walking into a Barakat Gallery is akin to entering another dimension. Inside, space and time, the present and the past, all merge together. The Barakat Family is dedicated to acquiring the finest masterpieces of ancient art from around the world. Their obsession has driven the collection to encompass the sacred relics of various cultures from Pre-Columbian America to the Khmer civilization of Cambodia.

When strolling through either of the immaculate Beverly Hills or London showrooms, one will find themself traveling from continent to continent, from era to era, in a matter of steps. Ancient bronzes of Greek and Roman gods stand majestically opposed to African bronzes depicting kings and captives.

The Barakat Collection attests not only to the timeless beauty and elegance of ancient artist but also to the seemingly limitless diversity and multiplicity of form and subject inherent in the world.

The international annex of the company has been located on Rodeo Drive since 1982 and is located at 405 North Rodeo Drive in the heart of Beverly Hills.

Our new London branch is located at 58 Brook Street in Mayfair directly across the street from the Claridge’s Hotel.

Both of our galleries are open to the public Monday through Saturday, from 10am to 6pm, or by appointment.
