We appraise antique, newly made and art quilts.
Our appraisals are confidential so scheduling an appointment of
20 minutes (one for each quilt) is advised. If there is more than
one quilt per owner, we need only 10 minutes per quilt. We can
do written appraisals or verbal consultations. Transportation fees are charged at the current federal mileage rates.
VERBAL CONSULTATION
Given to estimate age, determine possible use
and care of the quilt.
Range of dollar values is given.
WRITTEN APPRAISAL
Given for insurance, donation, or market value
(resale, divorce or estate situations).
History of the quilt from owner is recorded.
Quilt is examined in detail for fabric, style,
color, pattern, size, quality of construction, quilting description
and condition.
The written appraisal with a photo embedded
and care and use guidelines are mailed to owner within two or three weeks
to allow us time for needed research.
