FR Review:
Sources say Lauren Stanley knows everything there is to know about 19th- and 20th-century American silver. His eponymous boutique firm is chiefly a retail operation, with the largest inventory of its kind in the country. However, Stanley will also appraise silver for insurance or resale purposes. The firm’s distinguished client base includes museums and collectors from around the world. A member of the American Appraisers Association, Stanley charges a “steep” hourly fee, and will only appraise by appointment.
Representative Client Comments:
“He’s an expert.” “If you need silver appraised, he’s pretty much your guy. Anyone else is going to be second best.” “Brusque in manner sometimes, but it’s a great shop, and they know what they’re talking about there.”
