Tier Two: Professional Valuation Packet

Tier Two: Professional Valuation Packet

New Creations Woodcraft
$195

The Professional Stewardship Valuation Packet is our most comprehensive valuation offering, created for owners who want a complete, archival-quality record of their antique or collectible piece. This packet goes beyond identification and condition to provide deeper historical context, informed market insight, and practical guidance for long-term care and decision-making.

Each Tier Two valuation is prepared with careful attention to craftsmanship, materials, construction methods, and historical integrity. Rather than producing a simple appraisal, we assemble a thoughtfully structured packet that documents not only what a piece is, but how it was made, how it has lived, and how it may best be preserved going forward.

This valuation is ideal for heirloom pieces, estate documentation, insurance planning, resale preparation, or for owners who simply want a fuller understanding of an object entrusted to their care.

What’s Included

The Professional Stewardship Evaluation Packet includes:

• Certificate of Valuation & Authenticity
• Identification & Description, including construction methods and materials
• Photographic Documentation, highlighting joinery, wear patterns, and age indicators
• Condition Assessment & Preservation Notes, focused on stability and historical integrity
• Historical Context & Provenance, placing the piece within its cultural and design period
• Attribution Evidence, where appropriate, presented with professional restraint
• Expanded Value Overview, including:
  • Condition-based value scenarios
  • Sales-channel considerations
  • Insurance replacement value context
• Care, Use, and Storage Guidelines, aligned with best practices for historic furniture
• Complimentary Bible-based reflection, inspired by the piece and included at no additional cost

Expanded Value Overview

Tier Two includes a robust Value Overview designed to help owners understand how condition, presentation, and market context may influence value. This analysis provides greater clarity than a single number, supporting informed decisions related to stewardship, resale, insurance, or inheritance planning.

Values are presented as informed ranges based on comparable examples and current market observations. This information is provided for context and planning, not as a recommendation or sales directive.

Who This Evaluation Is For

Tier Two is well suited for:

• Family heirlooms or sentimental pieces
• Estate or legacy documentation
• Insurance or replacement planning
• Owners considering conservation or resale options
• Anyone seeking a deeper, professionally documented understanding of their furniture

Our Commitment

Every Professional Stewardship Evaluation Packet reflects our commitment to accuracy, restraint, and care. We do not promote unnecessary restoration, nor do we approach valuations as a means to sell additional services. Our goal is to honor craftsmanship, preserve history, and support thoughtful stewardship.

A Meaningful Gift Option

This valuation also makes a distinctive and meaningful gift. Rather than adding another object, it preserves understanding, story, and care for something already cherished. Gift certificates are available and may be applied toward this valuation.
