It's easy to get started!
Step 1. Click the "Buy Now" button
Step 2. E-mail us
Please e-mail us up to six digital photos of your artwork. (If we need more, we'll contact you.) These photos should show the full front and back of the artwork. A close-up of the signature is always helpful. Close-up photos of any markings and/or labels affixed to the back of the piece will assist us with your appraisal. If the photos don't show the labels or markings clearly, please describe them.
In order to provide the appraisal, we will need the measurements of the artwork, as well as condition information. Is there any noticeable damage, for example, holes, dents, scratches or stains? Also include a brief description of the artwork's history (how you came to own it). An e-mail link is provided above.
