RUG & TEXTILE APPRAISALS

The Expert Appraisal Company provides professional appraisal services for rugs, textiles, and woven works. Assignments are undertaken when careful documentation and credible valuation are necessary for estate settlement, insurance coverage, charitable planning, litigation support, or broader asset management decisions.

Drawing on more than a decade of auction house leadership and fifteen years of experience in fine and decorative arts, these evaluations encompass antique and contemporary rugs, Oriental carpets, Native American weavings, Chinese, Russian, and Continental embroidered textiles, tapestries, flatweaves, and other significant textile forms. Both single important works and substantial estate groupings are assessed. Analysis addresses regional origin, age, materials, dyes, design, condition, provenance, and prevailing market conditions.

Each engagement is approached with a methodology calibrated to the nature of the property and the purpose of the assignment. Reports are thoroughly researched, clearly documented, and prepared in compliance with USPAP standards. The resulting valuations are intended to withstand scrutiny and to serve attorneys, trustees, executors, wealth advisors, and collectors who require well-supported conclusions.
