WONDERING HOW MUCH YOUR ITEMS WORTH? CURIOUS IF THEY ARE ANTIQUE OR JUST OLD? YOU WANT TO SELL, BUT NOT SURE HOW TO ADVERTISE THEM? CLUELESS ABOUT WHAT TO DO WITH ANTIQUES?
If your answer to the above is yes, you want to get into this field and you're interested in what's real beyond the art-dealer shows, you've come to the right place!
I often hear family legends that objects kept in display cabinets will be worth a lot one day, so they are treasured and thought of as the perfect wedding present because of their value. Unfortunately, reality does not always support these ideas.
Fortunately, there are also examples of owners who are unaware of their value and are surprised when an object they thought was worthless turns out not to be. An independent valuation helps everyone to see clearly!
If you're selling on your own, you'll find that a single successful sale and transaction can take months on popular marketplaces. Finally, you may not get a realistic price for the sale, not to mention high commissions and countless identical ads. Remember, the ad price does not equal the selling price!
In my experience, this is why, unfortunately, objects that are meant for more end up in the wrong place in a rubbish dump, in a charity shop, or even lost.
I recommend that before you sell your unwanted items to an estate buyer at a bargain price, you should get an idea of your values, as there is no commitment involved.
The valuation fee is fixed, independent of the value of the objects. You can then make a responsible decision about the fate of your items. For example, I recommend art objects for auction, sale in trust, restoration, if no further examination is required. I can also advise you on the sale of your objects.
💡 Prices for antiques are flexible, so it makes a difference which sales platform you use.
The concept of an artifact is a broad category. They can be judged by their rarity, quality, condition, age, importance in art history or even their current market demand.
I specialize in the following categories:
🔎 GLASS - CRYSTAL
🔎 CERAMIC - PORCELAIN
🔎 SILVER, TIN, BRONZE ITEMS
🔎 ORIENTAL ART
🔎 ICONS
💡 The valuation of paintings, carpets, furniture and jewelry requires different qualifications! The same applies to philately (stamps) and numismatics (coins).
My connection with arts started in 2012: while working at the Museum of Applied Arts in Budapest, I was immediately attracted by the world of exhibitions and later auctions. I obtained my professional qualification at BÁV ART Auction House.
I worked in the Hungarian art trade for years, mainly with Hungarian porcelain and ceramic objects. If you are a fan of flea markets, antique fairs and treasure hunting, you have probably felt the same passion to collect. :)
Before listing a property, it is necesarry to call a real estate appraiser to determine the fair market value of your house or apartment. For the same reason, it's also worth calling an expert for your antiques before you dispose of them carelessly.
Independent valuers are not paid a commission and are not employed. It is therefore a transparent solution for the clients.
I'll help you get a good deal, not just the sharp-eyed traders! In all cases, I provide expert advice in the best interests of my clients.
I am also happy to to assist with art photography, object descriptions in English and Hungarian, and safe packaging.
