Where can I get antiques valued?

When you think of Rotterdam, you think of design, but our city also has a rich history of antiques, art and jewellery. Would you like to have your antiques valued at Vendu? Then visit our monumental building on Kipstraat in Rotterdam and speak to one of our welcoming antiques valuers. In a no-obligation valuation meeting, they will look at your antiques with you. Valuing antiques is not a science: the condition, maker, time period, style and quality are all important for the value of your antiques. Our appraisers will always assess and value your antiques in a clear and reliable manner.

Request a free valuation

Antiques come in all shapes and sizes: of sculptures and statues, antique furniture, art installations, photography and plastics. There are hundreds of Dutch attics, galleries and garages where hidden treasures can be found. You might also have an art treasure at home that you could put up for auction. But the question is often: where can I have this antique valued? At Vendu, we value antique sundials, ceramic pottery or oak wall clocks on a daily basis. We value antiques from private collections, but also complete household effects and collections. We also advise and assist with house clearance.
