China Identification & Valuation Service

• Valueing china collections takes considerable time, so to be able to offer this service for customers we have to charge a small service fee
• Purchase the service required to proceed online and follow the following instructions to receive help with pattern identification, date range ageing and your valuation by prompt return
• All valuations will include both the UK market full retail current estimates of value and the replacement valuation estimates for insurance purposes. Our valuations will also include a current estimate of auction or trade valuation

How to Proceed..

• Once you have completed the purchase of the service, please email us full details of your China using  our email address mike@vintagefarmhouse.co.uk  or via the live chat facility on the website
• Please include pictures to include the China pattern and factory marks, and also a full list of pieces with measurements if you are requiring a valuation of a dinner service or tea set
• As it is difficult to tell from pictures the sizes of dinner plates and flatwares please include measurements particularly where sets of side plates dessert plates and dinner plates and also platters are included for valuation.
• Accurately list any damage or repairs, cracks chips, or scratches and ware to the design. This significantly reduces the value of all but the rarest antique pieces.

What's included..

• If you only need a single piece of china evaluating, ie a vase, teapot or platter select the single piece of china option, currrently £12.99
• If you have a single pattern dinner or tea service from a single factory (all the same factory marks) and less than 100 pieces in total we charge £19.99
• If you have multiple sets or pieces of china in different patterns or from different manufacturers, you will need to purchase multiple evaluations at £19.99 or select the double evaluation at £29.99 for the first two, then add additional evaluations as required.
