description

A full valuation exercise of the entire museum collections was conducted in 2012/13. Our insurers require that valuations are updated every 3-4 years and so an update is now due.

Update to museum collections valuations for insurance purposes. Collections include:

Fine Art including oil paintings, watercolours, sculpture and prints including the German Expressionist collection.
Decorative and World Arts comprising furniture, European and Oriental ceramics, jewellery, costume and textiles, glass, silver and craft items.
Social History including the Regimental collection of medals, silver and other ephemera.
Technology including beam engines, road vehicles, typewriters and radios.
Antiquities including coins, clocks and Egyptology.
Archaeology including Roman pottery and mosaics.
Natural Sciences including geology and taxidermy.

We need individual valuations for every item worth £10,000 or more and bulk valuations by type for everything else. The collections were valued in 2012/13 and so this should mostly be a desk-based exercise to go through those valuations and update them, plus add on any items that now come into the £10,000+ bracket. At present, there are approx. 700 items individually listed, of which nearly 500 are Fine Art.

Two areas that need assessing from scratch are a collection of jewellery and the oriental ceramics. Expressions of Interest & further information can be found at: https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=b2d0fcfd-4369-e611-8114-000c29c9ba21
