Free & Paid Appraisal Services

Matt Wood's Antique American Indian Art, llc  provides two different appraisal services to both the public and private collectors nationwide.

Free & $20 Online Appraisals

AAIA, llc will offers ONE (1) FREE APPRAISAL online.

All Additional Appraisals are $20. per item or per group of up to 3 items (priced as a group). Frames of artifacts can count as a single item, and will be valued as one object. 

Our appraisals provide owners with an estimation of authenticity, tribal affiliation, age and current market value. 


 EXCEPTIONS 

 EXCEPTIONS: NO FREE APPRAISALS FOR
  • ARROWHEADS OR STONE ITEMS 
  •  PAINTINGS / PRINTS / BRONZES
  • NON NATIVE AMERICAN ITEMS
USE THE $20 FORM BELOW FOR THESE EXCEPTIONS

Again: 

NO FREE STONE Artifact APPRAISALS....

Due to exceptional number of daily requests, I will not look at a stone artifact under the Free Appraisal Button - I will simply delete it. I will not accept phone calls or texts on stone artifacts. In all honesty, I simply do not have the time to process such items for free. 

Many​ people send photos of rocks that they believe are artifacts. Most are natural forms and not artifacts.  My $20 fee is required whether or not the item is an artifact as you are paying for my opinion on the item. 

You MUST use $20 form for ALL STONE APPRAISALS. 


Mailing List Notice: 

Using any of our Appraisal or Contact Forms on this website places you on our EMAIL LIST automatically. IF you don't want to be on the mailing list just hit the UNSUBSCRIBE BUTTON on the first email you get form us and our system automatically takes you off the list.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO OFFER OUR FREE APPRAISAL SERVICES FOR ONE (1) ITEM FOR ALL OTHER NATIVE AMERICAN ART AND ARTIFACTS.

Cash and consignment offers on your items are also given upon request.

Formal Documented Appraisals

AAIA, llc  provides professional, fully-documented appraisals on company letterhead. Photographs, descriptions, analyses and current fair-market valuations are included for each appraised item.

Formal, documented appraisals are recommended for insurance and estate purposes. We formally appraise single items and entire collections of American Indian art.
