11Overview2233The Art Dealer is a specialty vendor in Crimson Desert who deals exclusively in paintings and decorative art pieces. The merchant running this shop is named Reynard. Unlike general-purpose vendors who sell consumables, gear, or crafting materials, Reynard's stock is entirely focused on visual decoration for player-owned spaces. All of his items are priced in Copper, the smallest denomination in Crimson Desert's three-tier currency system (100 Copper equals 1 Silver).4455Paintings purchased from the Art Dealer can be placed inside personal homes or at the Greymane Camp to customize and decorate living spaces. This makes Reynard one of the most relevant vendors for players who enjoy the housing and interior decoration aspects of the game. His selection is split into two quality tiers: the more affordable Study series and the premium Acclaimed series.6677With only five items in total, Reynard's shop is small but focused. The Study paintings at 13 Copper each are among the cheapest purchasable decorations in the game, making them easy to buy early. The Acclaimed pieces at 300 Copper each represent a step up in both price and prestige, suitable for players who want standout artwork as a centerpiece of their decorated space.8899Shop Inventory10101111Reynard carries five paintings across two tiers. All prices are in Copper. For reference, 100 Copper equals 1 Silver, so the Study pieces cost 0.13 Silver each and the Acclaimed pieces cost 3 Silver each.12121313PaintingTierPrice (Copper)Price (Silver Equivalent)NotesStudy - Fields of ColorStudy130.13 SilverA colorful landscape study; affordable entry-level decorationStudy - Poverty Amidst PlentyStudy130.13 SilverA thematic study exploring contrast; affordable entry-level decorationStudy - Golden LandsStudy130.13 SilverA warm-toned landscape study; affordable entry-level decorationAcclaimed - Idle HandsAcclaimed3003.00 SilverPremium artwork; higher visual quality, suitable as a focal pieceAcclaimed - Seasons of PlentyAcclaimed3003.00 SilverPremium artwork; higher visual quality, suitable as a focal piece1414Study Paintings15151616The three Study paintings are the entry-level tier in Reynard's shop. Each costs just 13 Copper, making them effectively free for any player who has spent even a small amount of time earning currency through combat or gathering.17171818Study - Fields of Color: A colorful landscape painting, likely depicting an open pastoral or field scene. Good as a background piece in living areas.Study - Poverty Amidst Plenty: A thematically named painting that hints at social or class contrast. Adds a more contemplative tone to the spaces where it is displayed.Study - Golden Lands: A warm-toned landscape study with a golden palette. Works well in spaces with wood, stone, or similarly warm decor.19192020Buying all three Study paintings costs a combined 39 Copper, well under 1 Silver. There is little reason not to pick up all three if you plan to decorate at all, since they provide immediate variety for newly furnished rooms.21212222Acclaimed Paintings232324-The two Acclaimed paintings represent Reynard's premium stock. At 300 Copper (3 Silver) each, they are over twenty times the price of a Study painting but are a reasonable investment for players who want higher-prestige art as a focal point in a decorated space.24+The two Acclaimed paintings represent Reynard's premium stock. At 300 Copper (3 Silver) each, they are over twenty times the price of a Study painting but are a reasonable investment for players who want higher-prestige art as a focus in a decorated space.25252626Acclaimed - Idle Hands: A premium painting whose title suggests a scene of rest or inactivity, potentially evoking luxury or quiet domesticity. Given the "acclaimed" designation, this piece likely has more detailed or sophisticated artwork than the Study tier.Acclaimed - Seasons of Plenty: A premium painting with a seasonal harvest theme. The title pairs thematically with the Study - Poverty Amidst Plenty, suggesting both explore abundance from different perspectives. This piece would complement a larger room or dining area.27272828Buying both Acclaimed paintings costs 600 Copper (6 Silver) combined. For context, that is roughly equivalent to buying 46 Study paintings. Players who want one of each tier for a varied display should prioritize the Acclaimed pieces after picking up the cheaper Studies.29293030Housing and Decoration31313232Paintings from the Art Dealer are placed as decorations inside Personal Housing or at the Greymane Camp.
