What we do
Most people come to us with one of two questions — what is this? or what will it bring? Both start the same way: send a photo. There’s no charge to find out.
Whether you have a single valuable item, a collection or an entire estate, we evaluate your property, recommend the appropriate market and provide professional guidance from consignment through sale.
USPAP-compliant personal property appraisals for estate tax, charitable donation, insurance, equitable distribution and other valuation needs, prepared by Charles Pharr, ISA CAPP, Certified Appraiser of Personal Property.
From fine art, antiques and jewelry to important collections and complete estates, we professionally research, catalog, photograph and market property to buyers worldwide through leading online auction platforms.
Consigning, start to finish
We never cut corners, so consignments need lead time before an auction date. Here’s exactly what happens between your first photo and your check.
Step 01
Upload pictures and whatever you know — maker, history, measurements. A phone photo is fine to start.
Step 02
We research comparable results and come back with an auction estimate at no cost, plus an honest answer on whether auction is the right route at all.
Step 03
Professional photography, an unbiased catalog description, inventory tracking, and a targeted advertising plan aimed at collectors in your item’s category.
Step 04
Live floor bidding plus online, absentee, and phone bidding all run at once — then settlement follows the sale.
Not sure it’s worth auctioning? Send it anyway. We’ll tell you if it isn’t, and where it should go instead.
What we sell
A single item, an entire household estate, a business liquidation, or the building it all sat in. If it has a buyer somewhere, we’ll find them.

Appraisal services
An auction estimate provides an opinion of what an item may bring at auction. A formal appraisal is a researched, written opinion of value prepared for a specific intended use, with appropriate documentation and photographs.
