For Miami collectors, Latin American buyers, Art Basel attendees, and waterfront estate counsel across Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Coconut Grove, and Brickell. Our Certified and Legal/Estate appraisals are 100% remote — from $125; instant valuation available for $35.
Miami’s rug market is shaped by its position as the financial gateway between Latin America and the United States. Many high-value pieces in Miami collections were acquired internationally by clients who maintain residences in multiple countries, and the documentation needed for U.S. insurance scheduling or estate compliance is often spread across several jurisdictions. A current RICA Certified Appraisal is the cleanest way to anchor the U.S.-side documentation.
We work with Miami-area estate attorneys, fine-art insurance brokers (the city has a deep specialty-insurance market thanks to Art Basel and the museum scene), and individual collectors moving pieces through Miami auction houses. Our reports are formatted to meet documentation requirements commonly requested by carriers and probate courts; acceptance is subject to individual requirements.
The most common gap we see is insurance under-coverage. A rug purchased two or three decades ago at fair market is now often worth 3–6× its original price at retail-replacement — the figure your insurer actually needs. A current RUG Index appraisal corrects the schedule before a loss event. Formatted to meet documentation requirements commonly requested by U.S. insurance carriers. Acceptance is subject to individual carrier requirements and policy terms.
For collections inherited or being settled in Florida, our Legal/Estate report ($195) is a RICA Certified Appraisal formatted for potential use in probate proceedings and IRS filings; admissibility and acceptance are determined solely by the court or agency. The signed PDF is delivered remotely.
