Rug Appraisal.

What we appraise

Hand-knotted oriental and persian rugs, antique and modern. Hand-tufted and hooked rugs. Decorative and tribal pieces. Anything woven for the floor — if you have a rug and need to know what it is worth, we can tell you.

What the report includes

Origin and weaving region, age estimate, materials (warp, weft, pile), knot count and density, dimensions, condition assessment, and a documented value with rationale. Reports are accepted by major insurers, estate attorneys, and tax authorities.

Why direct inspection matters

Online or sight-unseen appraisals miss what matters most: condition, repairs, and dye stability. We appraise in person, with the rug in front of us. The report is signed and stands up to scrutiny.

Schedule a Pick-Up

A written appraisal puts a defensible value on a rug for a specific purpose. The most common reasons people ask for one are insurance — scheduling a valuable rug on a policy, or documenting a loss for a claim — and estate matters, where a value is needed for probate or to divide property fairly among heirs.

Appraisals are also used for charitable donations, where a written valuation supports the deduction, and for resale, where knowing the realistic market value helps you set or judge a price. Each purpose can call for a different basis of value, so it helps to tell us why you need the appraisal when you book it.
