WHY CHOOSE US FOR CORPORATE ART VALUATIONS?
- If a business is relocating to new premises, there may be a requirement to downsize resulting in an audit of assets to determine what is kept, sold or given away.
- A change in company ownership, taste in art may change, resulting in the need for the existing artworks to be valued and sold. The artworks will be appraised prior to any sale to ensure it is being sold in accordance with current market value.
- Companies may want to refresh their brand. As a result, anything which represents the old image needs to be replaced. Artworks play a strong part in representing a company’s image, so in an instance where the image is being refreshed, the old artwork will need to be sold or given away.
- Company artworks come in several forms, including paintings, watercolours, drawings, prints, photography and sculpture.
