Stephenson's Auctioneers To Host Free Antiques Valuation Days On Second And Fourth Tuesdays Of Each Month
Typical appraisal categories include but are not restricted to silver, porcelains, china, crystal, pottery, sculptures, artwork, jewelry, coins, books and ephemera, and old toys, trains and dolls. Furniture appraisals may be conducted either in person or via photographs.
"Anyone with an interest in learning the value of their antique or collectible object is encouraged to bring it to the gallery. There's no charge for the service and no obligation; however, if they decide they would like to sell their item in one of our future auctions, we will gladly accept the consignment right on the spot," said Cindy Stephenson, ISA CAPP (Certified Appraiser of Personal Property) and owner of Stephenson's Auctioneers.
Valuations will be conducted by Stephenson, as well as Tom Wakeley, ISA AM (Accredited Member); Brianna McGettigan ISA; and Melissa Hertzler. Stephenson, Wakeley and McGettigan earned their designations by successfully completing courses in professional personal property appraisal theories and standards, and all three are current in USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice). Hertzler has taken several classes in the Appraisal Studies in Fine and Decorative Arts Certificate Program through AAA (Appraisers Association of America) and New York University and is current in USPAP.
Stephenson's gallery is located at 1005 Industrial Blvd., in Southampton, Pa.
