Trust your treasures to
someone who knows the value

English Tea Party... A house sale we visited had a teacup in an Oriental motif marked $225.00 for what the household sale company thought was a piece of Chinese porcelain. We knew it to be a piece of English porcelain produced in the 18th century in an Oriental design. We resold it for $1,500. The company running the sale had no idea what they were looking at, apparently thinking that any piece of porcelain with an Oriental motif must be made in the Far East.

Testimonial

My husband and I just couldn’t climb the stairs any more in our house of 47 years. We were going to move into a cottage and couldn’t take everything with us and call Jack Wanderman & Associates to help us sell the excess. There wasn’t enough for a sale, but he packed up some of the things and sold them at their next sale. We promptly got a check and were delighted to find out the items brought $9,000. Thank you so much.

Paul and Lydia, Pittsford
