Whether you're evaluating a cherished heirloom, insuring a private collection, assessing artwork for resale, or simply curious about the value of a piece - we're here to make appraisal effortless, expert, and entirely personal.
Our professional three-step appraisal service ensures trusted, well-documented results for collectors, sellers, and insurance needs. Each stage is designed to provide clarity, confidence, and expert insight into your artwork’s authenticity and value.
From securely submitting your artwork with detailed photographs, to expert evaluation by certified appraisers, and finally receiving a personalized certified report - our process combines academic rigor, market intelligence, and professional documentation at every step.
Fill out our secure online appraisal form to receive a personalized evaluation of your artwork. Please upload clear, high-quality photographs showing the front and back of the painting, close-ups of the signature, the frame, and any labels, stamps, or certificates of authenticity.
The more information and visual details you provide, the more precise and reliable our art experts can be in assessing the authenticity, condition, and value of your piece.
Our team of certified art appraisers and researchers conducts a thorough analysis of your artwork using a combination of academic resources, provenance tracking, international auction databases, and advanced AI-enhanced attribution tools.
We carefully examine the condition of the piece, noting details such as surface wear, preservation state, or restoration needs. We also study the style, medium, and technique to better understand the context of its creation and its place within broader artistic movements.
Beyond the artwork itself, we assess its market relevance by comparing it to recent sales and trends, ensuring that our valuation reflects both historical importance and current demand. This balanced approach allows us to provide a report that is not only academically rigorous, but also highly practical for insurance, resale, or collection management purposes.
When you choose our appraisal services, you will receive a formal written report. The level of detail and included features depend on the plan you select - from a simple free evaluation with a preliminary estimate, to a certified appraisal with in-depth research and professional documentation, or even a sales support package designed to help you prepare and market your artwork.
