Many people have antiques at their home. Whether you bought it at an antique show, or it was inherited from a deceased relative, you likely have something that its at least a few decades old, maybe even older. However, you may not know much about the item—its age, its source, its value, even sometimes what exactly it is. By taking your antiques to a professional appraiser, however, you can have these questions answered for you, while also determining the value of your antique for tax purposes, insurance, litigation and more.
Our Process
At Stuart H. Salsbury, we can provide appraisals for all kinds of antiques including period furniture, collectible coins, decorative objects, artifacts, and other historic items. When appraising these items, we determine not only the age of the antique, but also where it was made, how it was made, and by whom; its cultural and historical significance; its material, design, and authenticity; the quality of the piece; and any restorations that were made in years passed. This ensure that you are provided with an accurate valuation based on what we know of the item.
For an accurate appraisal for all of your antique items, be sure to call the appraisers at Stuart H. Salsbury Appraisal Services at 323-675-5789, or email us at stuartsalsbury@artappraisals.com.
