Our experience is comprised of 42 years in the business of professionally evaluating, authenticating and brokering: Major artist's paintings, especially those from c.1800-1965, and the authentication and private brokering of signed, authentic Tiffany Studios lamps. We are Private Brokers, not auctioneers or dealers. We do not purchase items outright or maintain an inventory of items for sale, nor do we offer items at public auction. We charge absolutely no fee to the seller for our services.
We are a professional Brokerage Service, who acts as a liaison between prospective sellers and our extensive list of screened, private collectors, who consistently pay the best prices for major American and European original paintings and for authentic, signed Tiffany Studios lamps. We work with private individual owners and trustees from all lower 48 states (location doesn't matter) in a professional, organized, confidential and timely manner, at No Fee To The Owner - Seller.
We realize the decision to work with an Internet company who wants to work with your valuable fine art items is not an easy one. To that end, we offer the following credentials for your consideration:
• Competence, honesty, integrity and ethical practices are the core principles upon which Fine Art Investments was founded.
• Over 40 years as an established entity in our field (Established 1972).
• 28 years as an Affiliate Member in good standing with the International Society of Appraisers, Inc., who take high ethics seriously and maintain strict standards for their members. Past memberships in other nationally respected appraisal associations.
We work almost exclusively these days, using telephone, email, fax and quality digital photographs. If needed we will arrange for in-person inspection of an item. We help you each step of the way, to provide us with the photos and other information we need to accurately assess what you have regarding authenticity, condition, sales potential and current market value.
We have an excellent track record for selling very fine examples of artwork and all types of authentic Tiffany Studios lamps on behalf of the owners. Our web sites have a page of professional references, listing several names of individuals we have helped, some of whom have known our business and Dennis Tesdell's expertise for as long as 35 years.
We guarantee both a sale and a price when we agree to work with someone. There is no fine print in our brokerage agreement. We do things in a systematic, organized and professional manner. We work hard for our clients daily, 365 days a year.
