Cathay Art Appraisers and Advisors is a U.S. based company offering appraising, advising, and consulting services in the sector of traditional and contemporary fine East Asian art for private collectors, museums, companies, investment funds and the public sector. We provide carefully considered strategies and effective support for starting a collection, diversifying a collection, positioning a collection and selling collections or individual works of art. After 40 years in business, we have an extensive international network which includes connections to the finest dealers, auction houses, museums, and educators. We look forward to assisting you and will be pleased to answer any questions regarding your collection or future acquisitions of Asian works of art.
We offer both in person and online appraisals. All items appraised for tax purposes must be personally inspected. Online appraisals can be made on the basis of good digital photographs but cannot be used for authentication. Authentication can only be arrived at after personal examination of the item. Online appraisals are based upon what is immediately apparent to us from the information that has been provided. They may be used to gather information such as identity, value, and history when deciding to sell, buy, or donate a work of art.
