Request an appraisal

Before filling in the form, please be sure to read "Cost & how it works" .

Fill in the form below (all areas except ‘additional comments’ MUST be completed.) Include one or two photos of your item and include as many details as possible in your description – it really helps the appraisal process. For example:

  • Is your painting on board or canvas?
  • Is there texture to your painting (is it oil or watercolour?)
  • Has your piece of furniture been refinished or is it in original condition?
  • Are there hallmarks on your silver ? (you may want to photograph them)
  • Are there any chips, cracks or other damage?
  • Does your piece come apart; if so how many parts are there?’
  • How many pieces in your dinner set?
  • Is your clock working?

*Some tips for preparing photos for upload:

  1. Use a neutral, contrasting background for the photo and submit only pictures that are clear and in focus.
  2. Make sure your image is in high resolution JPEG format. File size should be no larger than one megabyte (1024 kb.)
Subject: IMPORTANT! Put the item name first, followed by your last name, like this: Vases/Smith
Your full name:
