Commission an appraisal

For EUR 29.00 per piece you receive a written appraisal based on your photos, with identification, condition and value, as a PDF by e-mail, usually within 24 hours. After submitting, you pay on the secure Stripe page, for example with PayPal, credit card or Klarna.

Most helpful: the whole piece from the front, one side, the back, an open drawer, close-ups of the hardware, and any damage. Honest photos help more than flattering ones. If the photos are not enough, we will ask you for more by email.

Several pieces? One appraisal per piece. After payment you can add the next piece with one click; your name and email address will already be filled in.

A matching set of the same style, wood and upholstery with up to six parts counts as one piece.

Phone and invoice address (optional)

Only for questions about your order, for example if something in the photos is unclear or an email does not arrive.

Not required: up to EUR 250, a simplified invoice without an address is sufficient. Only enter it if you would like it on the invoice, for example for your own records.

Written appraisal of one piece, based on your photos, as a PDF: EUR 29.00 incl. 19% German VAT.

We will send the confirmation and your appraisal to: the e-mail address entered above

What your appraisal contains

What a finished appraisal looks like: a real example with a sample recipient (in German; yours will be written in English).

  • Object identification - what exactly is this piece of furniture?
  • Style period & dating - Biedermeier, Jugendstil, Art Deco …
  • Wood & materials - veneer, solid wood, hardware
  • Condition assessment - substance, restoration needs
  • Valuation - dealer price & private-market price
  • Sales recommendation - where and how to sell the piece best

Who is this for?

For anyone who wants to know the real value of an inherited, gifted or newly discovered piece of furniture. Our appraisal is suitable for private sellers before a sale, for estate division, for insurance documentation and as guidance when buying.

Dealers with four decades of expertise, not sworn experts. We know the prices actually paid on the market because we pay them ourselves. If a court, tax authority or insurer requires a formal appraisal report, you need a certified appraiser in your country; for selling, inheritance and your own records our appraisal is what you need.

How binding is the appraisal, and what do you use AI for?
Important note: Our appraisal is based solely on the analysis of the photos and information you provide. It is not a guarantee and does not replace a physical inspection on site. All valuations are non-binding guidance only.

Note on the use of AI: We use AI tools to support the preparation of the appraisal, for example for research and drafting. The professional assessment, the verification of all details and the final approval are always carried out personally by us.
