Description
This lecture gives insights into how needlework is valued by professional appraisers. The presentation reviews the process for appraising personal property, the valuation methods that are commonly applied to needlework and the “keys” to concluding value. Participants walk through short case studies that illustrate how the appraiser applies both connoisseurship (“art”) and technical methods (“science”) to conclude value. It shows that the huge variety in needlework forms, eras, and regional variations make every appraisal assignment a unique challenge.
