How does it work?

  • We begin with a conversation to understand the purpose of the appraisal—whether it's for insurance, estate planning, or sale—and to gather preliminary details about your artwork.

  • We then conduct a thorough inspection of the artwork, noting its condition, artist signature, and any other relevant details. This is followed by in-depth research into the artist, provenance (the history of ownership), and current market trends to determine a fair valuation.

  • The collected information and research are compiled into a comprehensive, confidential written report. This document details the value of your artwork and can include all necessary documentation to support our findings.
