Appraisals

If you are considering selling an artwork, Menzies will provide a free initial estimate of your artwork's value. Our specialists can appraise Australian and International works of art in all mediums. Note: Menzies is a secondary market for artworks, so we cannot value new work by artists currently working and/or exhibiting.
