Online Appraisal Service
If you want to know how much your violin, cello or viola is worth, all we need are a few photographs of your instrument, and any details you think might help with its history or condition.
This information on your instrument will help us with your online violin appraisal. Any information can be useful for a violin valuation, although nothing replaces seeing the instrument in person for a more accurate violin appraisal.
The most accurate way to appraise your instrument is for us to see it in our workshop where we can physically inspect it and assess any needed repairs. However, we realize not everyone can bring their instrument to our workshop in Lagos/Portugal. The Online Appraisal Service is your next best option. An accurate Online Appraisal relies upon you to take accurate measurements and to provide detailed photographs. Please realize the accuracy of your appraisal will be influenced by the accuracy of the pictures and measurements that you provide.
Once you order your appraisal, we will email you with a list of required photographs and measurements. You will need a digital camera (at least 5MP), a tape measure that measures in metric (mm and cm), and any additional information that you might have (receipts, history, etc.). After the appraisal is completed, you'll receive your valuation suitable for insurance purposes.
We don't avaluate instruments of living makers - we'll leave any avalutaion of their work to themselves.
Surely we'll give an appraisal of our own violins for free!
