Valuing fine China is both an art and a science. I meticulously examine each piece, considering factors such as the maker and mark, the rarity of the pattern, and the era of production. I also assess condition carefully, taking into account chips, cracks, and crazing, as even damaged items can still retain significant value. This detailed approach underpins my pre-sale valuations, insurance services, deceased estate valuations, and professional advice. In addition to valuation work, the knowledge gained from decades in the trade is shared through engaging talks and road shows, ensuring every piece is assessed with precision and that you receive a clear understanding of its market desirability and potential worth.
