The world of art, antiques, collector items, home decor contents and other forms of Personal Property is infinitely diverse, and in our nearly 40 years of preparing appraisal reports for our clients, we have had the privilege to work with many wonderful items of furniture, paintings and sculptures, rare Oriental rugs, silver wares, porcelains, antiques, fine decor, jewellery and watches, coins and stamps, and so much more. Below is a small sampling of some of these items. In some instances rare and valuable, but just as important, meaningful to the collector and family clients we are honoured to work with.
