​

All our artworks in our appraisal reports are thoroughly researched, illustrated catalogs with full descriptions including; artist name, title, size, medium, year created, condition, exhibition history and provenance if available. 

​

For Fair Market Value Appraisals, we provide a narrative for each work appraised in support of our value conclusion, illustrating with comparable sales how they are analyzed in terms of quality, and how they relate to the subject property. The artwork discussed includes any special attributes about the property, the quality or importance of the property in relation to other works by the artist in the market, and of the state of the art market at the time of valuation. 

​

For Retail Replacement Value, or insurance appraisals, we conduct research in the most common market for the collector and find comparable work to the owner's property, understanding that each artwork is unique and the value conclusion must cover replacement cost in the case of damage or loss.
