Testimonials
About 40 years ago, I purchased two paintings for a few thousand dollars from an artist who was a patient of mine. The artist went on to become well known and has since died. I retired and was planning to move so I wanted to update my insurance. Much to my surprise, the insurance company rejected the first appraisal because the appraiser wasn’t certified. Thankfully, Peter Curran was able complete the assignment and the paintings are now insured for $1 million.

Our father was a successful businessman. He amassed an eclectic group of collections that were packed into the apartment in the city, the beach house on the island, plus several storage units. There was an overwhelming amount of stuff ranging from multi-million dollar paintings to quirky finds from travels with our mom. We needed someone to make sense of it all and help us develop a plan for distribution of the estate. Peter Curran, with his wide range of expertise, was a great help and very pleasant to work with.

After I got divorced I asked two major auction houses and several prominent dealers to give me estimates and offers on items that I wished to sell. It was confusing so I hired Peter Curran to advise me. He noticed that an 18th century table had been mistakenly labeled by all of them. Based on his information, I was able to sell the piece for several hundred thousand dollars more than I was previously told. It went to famous collector and is now a promised gift to a national museum.
