Valuations

Valuations of antique rugs come in several forms, from disposal i.e. what one might realistically expect a rug to make at auction or within the trade, to retail valuation i.e. what one might expect to have to pay for a piece from a high street retailer.

The latter is the price we generally use for insurance purposes. The two values are often very different.

We can provide written valuations for insurance claims or probate and can offer damage assessment services and are on hand to provide advice on all matters connected with antique Persian carpets and other hand-made textiles and weaving.

Written valuations typically cost £50 per item or 1%, whichever's greatest. This can include digital images if required. In many cases verbal advice is offered for free.
