What factors are considered for an antique valuation aimed at purchase?

The factors considered for a thorough and professional valuation of antique furniture, paintings, sculptures, and antiques in general are:

1. The condition of preservation
2. The era of creation
3. The quality of workmanship, such as carving, gilding, etc., aesthetics, and market demand for that specific item.

When all these factors are considered together, they determine the value of the item. A purchase-focused valuation means taking all these aspects into account, including market demand for that type of object.

We evaluate antiques previously assessed by auction houses.

Turn to professionals—Berti Antichità guarantees assistance from the moment you send the photo through to the completion of the purchase of your antique.

At Berti Antichità, we advise against auctioning your inheritance, old furniture, paintings, and sculptures for three main reasons:

1. The risk: Auction sales are not a guaranteed route, as the risk of unsold items is significant, with the potential for a high residual debt.
2. The time required: Auctions often require long waiting times, which can extend over several months. On the other hand, Berti Antichità offers immediate payments and quick transactions, so you don't waste time.
3. Associated costs: Those selling items through an auction should consider that around 35% of the sale price will be lost in commissions and additional costs, such as transport expenses.

In brief, we can summarise it with this example: 10 items at auction—maybe 1 or 2 sell for considerable amounts, 2 or 3 at market value, 1 or 2 below estimation, and the rest remain unsold. After factoring in the auction commission and the transport costs to move the items to the auction house and back, we leave it to you to consider how little remains for you, with a significant waste of time.

If you've already had your inheritance of antiques valued by an auction house, we invite you to contact us. We are ready to evaluate and buy everything directly at competitive prices, without delays, eliminating the risk of unsold items and guaranteeing you the full profit.
