GET YOUR VALUABLES APPRAISED BY FORMER SOTHEBY APPRAISERS FROM 10a.m. to 3 p.m.

Lark E. Mason, Jr., owner of www.igavelauctions.com, an online art auction site, and Helen F. Kippax of The Antiques Brokerage House, Ltd, an art consulting and appraisal business, both formerly of Sotheby’s, will be on hand to appraise heirlooms from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Lark Mason is one of the premiere appraisers of Chinese art and antiques in the United States. Helen Kippax also appraises and advises on estate dispositions, and worked at William Doyle Galleries where she was one of the first female auctioneers.

Mr. Mason and Ms. Kippax will appraise items at a fee of $20.00 per item and $50.00 for three items. All of the proceeds from these appraisals will be donated to Time for Lyme. Customers can bring the actual items for appraisal or a digital photo of the item. Or, for particularly large items, an appointment can be scheduled for a home appraisal. Time for Lyme will have volunteers standing by to help with large items and to keep a place in line while the people shop until their appraisal time is called.
