Collections Care and Evaluation
Come to the show and learn
about your own possessions
as well as find new ones!
Show admission provides you with the opportunity to have your antiques examined by both certified valuation professionals from the American Society of Appraisers and by professional art conservators, members of the Washington Conservation Guild.
Note: Our appraisers will not have access to the internet during the clinics, therefore all valuations will be oral opinions of value based on their professional judgment and experience. If you can call ahead and advise us of what you will be bringing, we may be able to give you more specific information at the time of our consultation.
Our conservation professionals will be able to provide information on the care of your antiques as well as a general sense of what treatment options are available and the approximate costs.
For more information, and to let us know what you will be bringing please call or email Newbold Richardson, chairman of the event: 703-684-0863/pastcrafts@verizon.net
