Valuations
Often in a multiple collection, there could be works that do not warrant the expense of a written valuation and we will discuss that at the time.
Written valuations can be presented as either: individual certificates for each artwork (for collections of less the four) or in the form of a bound catalogue for larger collections.
​
We offer various types of valuation, including two printed versions.
​
The standard 'Insurance Valuation' is for replacement purposes. This is the price one would expect to pay to replace a lost artwork from a dealer gallery.
A 'Market Appraisal' valuation differs inasmuch as it is used to determine a value for estate purposes, such as in a matrimonial split or a deceased estate and is based on what one would realistically expect to realise on the open market.
We can often give a free initial appraisal of approximate values before undertaking a formal valuation. Often in a multiple collection there could be works that do not warrant the expense of a written valuation and we will discuss that at the time.
Written valuations can be presented as either: individual certificates for each artwork (for collections of less the four), or in the form of a bound catalogue for larger collections.
