There is a need for a professional, with an extensive working knowledge to ascertain the potential value of items making up an estate.
Philippa Brooks GA, BA Fine Art. Nathaniel Lee-Jones MNAVA.
I have a fine art background as well as graduating with an A grade from the Gemmological Association of Great Britain’s Foundation course. As a member of NAVA (The National Association of Valuers and Auctioneers), my colleague Nathaniel Lee-Jones is qualified to carry out valuations of contents and specialist items. We attend valuations together to maximise our combined expertise.
We have owned and operated our gallery and antique showroom for twenty years. We exhibit regularly at London fine art and antique trade fairs. Between us, we have a wide ranging knowledge of art and antiques and offer this either as a sole service to solicitors and private clients when preparing an open market valuation for inheritance tax purposes, or in conjunction with other related services.
