What kind of antique valuation should I get?<\/h2>\n
The kind of valuation you receive will depend on your purpose \u2013 whether it\u2019s for insurance, probate or to sell \u2013 and the results may differ accordingly. \u2018Auction valuations give an indication of the price we would expect the objects to achieve when they are sold under the hammer,\u2019 says Briony. \u2018A probate valuation is similar to that of an auction estimate but, whereas auction estimates may tend to be slightly lower in order to attract more buyers, probate valuations on a deceased\u2019s chattels tend to reflect an average price that similar items repeatedly fetch at auction. Insurance valuations give you more of an idea of what you might expect to pay in the current retail market if you were to replace the item.\u2019 Probate and insurance valuations are a more official process than sale estimates and will generally have a set fee attached.<\/p>\n
Whatever your reason for a valuation, the most important considerations for achieving accurate and reliable information are enlisting a respected specialist and making sure you are able to offer them as much information as possible. \u2018Valuations go hand in hand with research,\u2019 attests Briony. \u2018And the more clues you give to the history of the object, the more in-depth and relevant research the valuer can do for you!\u2019<\/p>\n

Tips for getting an accurate antiques valuation:<\/h2>\n
\u2022 Ensure you approach a knowledgeable, reputable organisation for valuation advice.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Give the valuer a detailed description of the item, including close-up photos if it\u2019s not a face-to-face valuation.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Getting more than one valuation is a good idea if you want additional assurance of\nan item\u2019s value.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Keep a record of all valuations. This will help to build a complete history of your collection and may be useful for future owners.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Antique values change over time so consider getting your antiques valued every few years to see how the market is fluctuating \u2013 especially important if you\u2019re looking to find an optimal time to sell.<\/p><\/body><\/html>\n
