Hughes Expertise on the Road: Appraisals at Royal Oaks

Todd, Kari, and Tony, our talented team of antique furniture appraisers, put on an exciting and informative show for the residents of the Royal Oak Retirement Community last week. We conducted value estimation antique appraisals on over 40 items, and then Todd and Tony got on stage and dazzled the audience with in depth historical background and fascinating facts about the art, jewelry, ephemera, and curiosities that they brought in. Todd’s favorite item? The factory-grade chocolate bunny mold, of course! Our team provided an on-the-spot antique appraisal for nearly 50 items.

Kari, Todd, and Tony hard at work examining items and checking auction records. The range of items brought in for antique appraisals by the participants was huge - from heirloom estate jewelry to a vintage sewing box.
