Provenance Auction House Dashboard Template

Provenance runs an evening sale with a 64-lot spine, bid ladder, catalogue with estimates and reserves, a bidder phone bank, results, and consignor settlements.

Provenance is a single-file HTML dashboard template for auction house operations. It builds a sale room desk for a fictional house, Harcourt's, running Sale 2419, a Modern and Contemporary Evening Sale of 64 lots on 12 May 2026. Five views cover the night: Sale Room, Catalogue, Bidders, Results, and Consignors.

The Sale Room view renders the running order as a spine of 64 ticks whose height scales with each lot's low estimate, color-coded hammered, passed, to come, and on the block, with a bid ladder and a Hammer & advance button that records results. The Catalogue table lists lot, artist and work, year, medium, estimate, reserve, and provenance flag, filterable by school, and each row opens a condition and provenance dossier. Bidders maps a phone bank of 12 desks covering 24 registered paddles. Results tracks cumulative sale pace with a hammer-only or with-premium toggle, a sell-through dial, and a fee waterfall from hammer to consignor at a 6.0% seller's commission. Consignors measures guarantee exposure against a $40.0M risk ceiling and drafts settlement statements on 35-day terms.

Who Provenance is for

Provenance gives auctioneers and sale room managers the spine to run the night, watching the lot on the block and advancing the hammer through the running order.

Specialists use the catalogue and dossier panels to answer condition and provenance questions without leaving the desk.

Phone bank coordinators assign the 24 registered phone paddles across 12 desks and track collector interest by channel.

Consignment managers and finance watch guarantee exposure against the $40.0M ceiling and draft each consignor's settlement statement.

When to reach for it

Provenance fits a house whose sale night runs on a printed running order and a clipboard of phone bids. The spine and bid ladder digitize the rostrum's view of the room.

Pick it when post-sale reporting takes days of spreadsheet work. The results view computes pace, sell-through, and the hammer-to-consignor fee waterfall as lots hammer.

Pick it when you are building auction software and need a front end that specialists trust, with reserves, estimates, and guarantee structures already modeled.

Frequently asked questions

Does the spine and bid ladder actually advance through lots?

Yes, the spine and bid ladder advance through lots. The Hammer & advance button records the result for the lot on the block and promotes the next lot, updating the spine states, the lot plate, and the running results. The sale data is a JavaScript array you can replace with your own catalogue.

Can I model my own house commission structure?

Yes, you can model your own house commission structure. The fee waterfall separates seller's commission at 6.0% of hammer from buyer's premium retained by the house, and the results toggle switches between hammer-only and with-premium views. Edit the rate constants in the script to match your terms.

Does it handle guarantees and third-party deals?

Yes, Provenance handles guarantees and third-party deals. The Consignors view filters consignments by house guarantee or third-party, sums reserve aggregates and low estimates per seller, and charts total guarantee exposure against the $40.0M risk ceiling stated in the panel.

Is Provenance free?

No, Provenance is a premium template at $6.99. The live preview includes the working sale spine and bid ladder, so you can run a mock sale before buying. Six other catalog templates are free.
