Costs
Estimates: Simon Blackwood Fine Arts cannot offer "quotations" or fixed prices for specific Restoration works as the techniques used in painting vary considerably from one painting to another. This is true even in the case of works by one artist. The major cost of any restoration work is time. |
Estimates by telephone cannot be given without having seen or having first inspected the art work. The exception is in the case of works on paper e.g. prints etc.,where it is possible to give a general idea in relation to size and technique (if it is known). |
Valuations: We cannot give valuations for probate or insurance purposes, although a general speculation can be given based on our knowldge of the current market for similar paintings and prints. |
Is it worth Restoring? We are often asked this question. Our answer is: do you like the art work enough to see it at its best, as near as possible to its original condition? |
extremely competative rates.
