ART  VALUATION

​Auction

When consigning your art to auction and when targeting new acquisitions for you we conduct a through analysis of the history of the artwork's relative sales results.

 

Utilising a database of 30,000,000 auction results, indices and economic metrics of 850,000 plus artists from over 7000 global auction houses dating back 300 years, we produce a concise low - high auction estimate.

 

Fair Market Value

Fair market value (FMV) is the price that an artwork would sell between a buyer and seller on the open market. The FMV is generally what is used for charitable donation values and inheritance tax.

​

Replacement Value

Replacement value is the cost it would require to replace the artwork with a similar work of equitable condition purchased in an appropriate market place in a limited amount of time. This value is the highest value of an artwork and is used for insurance coverage.

​

Liquidation Value

Liquidation value is the value of the piece if forced to sell in limited conditions and possibly time constraints.
