Collection management transforms discovery into understanding, and understanding into legacy.

“So much of history is mystery. We don't know what is lost forever, what will surface again. All objects exist in a moment of time. And that fragment of time is preserved or lost or found in mysterious ways. Mystery is a wonderful part of life.”
― Amy Tan, The Bonesetter's Daughter
Insurance appraisals provide clarity before loss, so protection is grounded in fact rather than assumption.

“One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade.”
— Chinese proverb
For situations in which you are unable or prefer not to bid directly, attend previews, or be present at auction.
Our consulting services provide informed, market-aware insight to support sales, acquisitions, and other personal property decisions. Services include pre-purchase and pre-sale analysis, as well as objective review of antiques, collectibles, fine art, and related property to assist with pricing considerations, presentation, timing, and disposition planning.
These services are advisory in nature and do not constitute formal appraisals prepared for tax, insurance, or legal purposes.
Limited brokerage services are offered in select circumstances, alongside advisory services when brokerage is not appropriate or desired.
