Detailed, current market valuations for insurance purposes.
An itemised inventory
We provide professional advice on the items in your collection that may require itemised assessment in the event of loss or damage. All our valuations are professionally completed by a Chartered Art & Antiques Surveyor (RICS) and provide a detailed inventory with appropriate valuations and illustrations to aid identification.
We advise private clients, lawyers, executors and trustees across Scotland and the rest of the UK and, where necessary, can store your data securely for longer-term management of your art and antiques collection.
Browns provide accurate and fast turnarounds, with our assessments usually completed within 7 days of requesting our services. Our friendly team are happy to discuss any valuation requirements you may have and tailor our services to suit your situation.
If you decide to sell items, our team will be delighted to discuss the best course of action to maximise the potential of your belongings.
