Valuation is a core aspect of the global art industry. In the absence of a frequently traded market place, and an environment where unique objects can fetch widely different values, the role of the valuer or appraiser is an essential component in filling the gaps where market data fails to provide direct answers. Over decades the skills of an appraiser are honed through a combination of connoisseurship and extensive market knowledge.

This unique report looks at the art and collectibles market from the viewpoint of the ‘valuer or appraiser’, as opposed to the traditional transactional prices based on auction sales.  The report covers 49 collecting categories from Memorabilia and Scientific Instruments to Fine Art.

The report is an expert’s guide to the complex and fragmented art and collectibles market, looking at both important valuation factors, risks, changes in taste and the impact on value on a broad section of art and collectibles.
