As a member of the International Society of Appraisers, Sue McGovern, President of Sands of Time is qualified to provide professional written appraisals that conform to standards established by the National Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).

We can authenticate and appraise individual works of ancient art or entire collections. Appraisals can be provided for authentication and identification, estate matters, museums, insurance and tax donation purposes. Every appraisal is personally prepared by Sue to ensure that the work adheres to the ethical and professional guidelines of the Appraisal Foundation’s Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), IRS regulations and the high standards of the ISA.

We invite inquiries from individuals, estate liquidators, museums, educational institutions, consultants, architects, interior designers, as well as colleagues, collectors and investors. Please contact us for further details.
