Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why do I need a certified rug appraisal?

    A certified appraisal establishes the authenticated value of your rug, which is essential for insuring it against loss, theft, fire, or damage. It also provides documentation needed for estate planning, equitable distribution among heirs, charitable donations, or resale, ensuring you have accurate proof of your investment whenever it's needed.

  • What is included in a rug appraisal report?

    A thorough appraisal report documents the rug's size, age, style, and country of origin, along with a detailed description of its condition and construction. This documentation confirms the rug's identity and authenticity while establishing its current market or insurance value.

  • How long does a rug appraisal take?

    The time required for an appraisal depends on the number of rugs being evaluated and the complexity of each piece's history and construction. Most individual appraisals can be completed efficiently, and our team will let you know what to expect when you schedule your consultation.

  • Will my insurance company accept your appraisal?

    Yes. We regularly work with attorneys, private insurance adjusters, and national insurance companies, including Farmers, Allstate, Prudential, and State Farm, so our appraisals are prepared to meet the documentation standards these institutions require.
