With Staffordshire Figures 1780 to 1840 Volume 3: Animals, Animal Performers, Dandies, and Murder and Volume 4: Family, Friendship, Play, & Classical Subjects author Myrna Schkolne catalogs the enor- mous range of enamel-painted figures made predomi- nantly in the Staffordshire Potteries. Here is more information on these titles. Volume 3 of this comprehensive, multi-volume work includes over 1100 brilliant color photographs of Staffordshire figures portraying animals and animal entertainment, dandies, death, and murder. Among the menagerie of animals presented are cats, dogs, and a host of wild animals and farm animals. There is also valuable information about the makers and design sources, along with a values guide. This impressive series catalogs the enormous range of enamel-painted figures made predominantly in the Staffordshire Potteries between 1780 and 1840. Many of these figures are hauntingly beautiful and have long been hidden from the public eye. Fashioned in an era before photography, they give us rare glimpses of a world that has vanished. To hold one is to touch the past.

In this case, you are seeking a divorce-settlement apprais- al. However, definitions of value differ from state to state. Indeed, every major component of by David Federman the divorce-settlement appraisal, including the effective date, is regulated by law. Those laws vary by locality. Has a once-married friend ever told you they got a raw deal in their divorce settlement? At So never forget this: Appraisals are legal documents that must comply with laws governing the time, you probably chalked off their sour feelings to “sour grapes.” But now that you are their preparation. about to become, or thinking of becoming, an ex-spouse, do you suddenly fear the same fate? Most appraisers lack the mandatory legal knowledge and training to write divorce-settlement This time, you know the fear isn't just based on emotions; it's based on economics, too. What appraisals that adhere to prevailing law. It goes without staying that their ignorance can cost do you do to get a fair, rather than a raw, deal in your divorce settlement? their clients dearly. Let's review the steps of professional appraisal preparation. Start by finding a good lawyer--but then take one extra giant step. For those who are parting STEP 1: EVALUATION. Before one can assign a value to a piece of property, they must be ways to ensure an equitable division of marital property, find a professional appraiser. They are able to fully and accurately identify it. This first phase of an appraisal is called “evaluation.” If the key to fair divorce settlements. it is botched, determining the property's correct worth will be botched. Given the importance of a professionally prepared divorce settlement appraisal, you would STEP 2: VALUATION. After “evaluation” comes “valuation,” assigning a dollar-worth to the think there would be an abundance of professional appraisers and that it would be easy to find property that fulfills the client's needs. This requires training in valuation methodology. That one. Think again. The average person's chances of obtaining such a report are almost as slim training can only come in a classroom where accepted procedures and standardized techniques as their chances of winning the lottery. are taught. Worse, there is even less trustworthy information available about divorce-settlement Untrained appraisers usually treat value as an arbitrary or hypothetical concept. Often they appraisals. Take it from me. I've been writing about personal property appraising since 1982 will give seat-of-the-pants estimates of value based on their personal experience buying and when I wrote “The Seven Deadly Sins of Personal Property Appraising.” Needless to say, the selling. But value is far more concrete and composite, as well as factual and fluid. That's article stirred up a hornet's nest. Nevertheless, the information vacuum persisted. In 1993, I because it is a function of market activity requiring research of transacted prices for identical finally took matters into my own hands and wrote a book on the subject. Twenty-two years or comparable items. Value is based on knowledgeable sampling of markets not best-guess later, my book is long out of print and consumers are as much in the dark as before about the hunches about them. An appraisal offers a reasoned, researched opinion of value as of a given true nature of appraisals and appraisers. date (specified by law), supported by facts gathered in the appropriate marketplace. It's time to shed some light on the subject. But be warned, it's a harsh light. In short, appraising is an academic research and computation discipline requiring academic PERSONAL PROPERTY APPRAISING: A PRETENSE NOT A PROFESSION training. That makes it a profession, like accounting, where performance is taught and tested. Here's the lowdown about the scandalously high number of raw-deal divorce settlements: PICKING AN APPRAISER: RULES OF THE ROAD Personal property appraising is an unregulated profession. Indeed, it isn't even a profession. With so much riding on the appraiser's expertise and qualifications, you must conduct a job How could it be when anyone has the right to call themselves a personal property appraiser? search for an appraiser. Start by requesting and thoroughly examining a written professional You heard right. With little or no training and experience, any person can hang out a shingle as profile or resume of any job candidate. That means making sure it gives a verifiable history of a personal property appraiser. the appraiser's education and experience. This isn't the case with real estate appraisers. In the domain of buildings valuation, a person Many so-called professional profiles are designed to bamboozle and deceive. So watch out must be educated and tested-just like an attorney or a doctor. In the field of real estate, there is for an “alphabet soup” of titles, designations and affiliations.

Many designations have absolutely nothing to do with appraising.

The sad fact is this: few call themselves a doctor. colleges in America have degree programs in personal property appraising. So while college Alas, personal property appraising is another matter. Believe it or not, banks and mortgage degrees may be evidence of general intelligence, most are worthless as appraising credentials. companies that wouldn't dare allow an uncertified appraiser to put a value on a house will allow The same usually goes for certificates that prove attendance at seminars and conferences-- untrained hacks to put “values” on personal property accepted as backing for loans.

Quacks are good at impressing prospective clients with supposed bona fides.

A case in point: Patriot Paul Revere was testing by professional schools and associations, parade a number of meaningless credentials arguably the best silversmith of his time. But when business was bad, he doubled as a dentist, in front of clients seeking some basis for trusting their abilities and hiring them. Don't laugh, filling teeth with the silver he used to make bowls. but I have seen resumes for divorce-settlement appraisers that listed everything from Fine Arts Now ask yourself: Would you want your cavities filled by a silversmith?

THE MYTH OF EXPERIENCE If you learn nothing else from this article, learn this: experience buying and selling the kinds Time may heal all wounds but it doesn't necessarily heal all heels.

This assumption is wrong and potentially ruinous. Many quack appraisers believe that experience alone makes them appraisers.

That's why calculating correct appraisal values for personal property takes appraiser about their aptitude and skill as appraisers. Don't allow yourself to be fooled into as much training as it does for valuing real estate. believing experience in sales of property is the same, or good, as appraising it. It isn't. In short, being an auctioneer doesn't make one an appraiser. When interviewing an appraiser, keep in mind that the quack is often a smooth talker who AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE throws the prospective client off guard by using professional-sounding, but irrelevant, jargon. Many men and women cheated out of a fair divorce settlement by an unfair appraisal think they For example, beware talk about federal IRS definitions of “fair market value” in connection can take their grievances to court and get a more just settlement. And, in theory, there is always with divorce-settlement appraisals. Many ignorant appraisers use a one-definition-fits-all a second chance for fair play. However, it's a poor one. The fact is, it is hard to contest an approach to fair market value. In actuality, the IRS has three definitions. Ironically, none of appraisal once it has been completed.

Antique & Appraisal School Celebrates Half-Century Milestone While not quite considered an “antique” just yet, the Asheford Institute of Antiques, a professional-level distance learning program on antiques, collectibles, and appraising, turned fifty this past week, mark- ing a milestone in antiques and appraising education, as the longest run- ning Institute of its kind. Although the school premiered its home-study program to the antique world in late 1965, it didn’t officially open its doors to students until 1966. “We’ve seen an awful lot of changes since our inception” said Peter Green, the Institute’s original founder. Green, who started the school based on the notion that there was a need for antique and apprais- al education, said he could hardly believe how the antique and apprais- al services market had grown over the past 50 years – “I can remember when antique stores were hard to find… now you can tap your phone and find virtually anything instantly!” For a FREE booklet During the 1980’s, Green’s son, Charles took over the day-to- mail coupon to: day operations of Asheford, and is the school’s current director. When ASHEFORD INSTITUTE asked what he thought represented the Institute’s high-water mark over OF ANTIQUES the past fifty-years, Green unabashedly responded that the introduction Asheford Director, Charles 981 Harbor Blvd. of the school’s new online e-Course earlier this year was a game-chang- Green Celebrating School’s er for antique and appraisal education in general. ”The e-Course allowed Ste. 3 50th Anniversary us to bring a half-century worth of teaching expertise to a new and Dept. 275AAAN39 expanded format,” said Green. “With the ability to use online interactive Destin, FL 32541-2525 multimedia for instruction, we’ve really been able to raise the bar in antiques and appraising education for our or call: students.” Green went on to say that although online instruction had obviously become the new norm, the “text- 1-877-444-4508 book” version would still be offered for a number of years to come. According to a press statement, as part of the school's year-long celebration, staff from the Institute will also participate in a traveling roadshow to commemorate the school's 50th anniversary. Plans reportedly include tours of major antique events and shows throughout North America, and will incorporate free appraisal clinics, business seminars and evaluations to mark the Institute’s anniversary. “We really want to give something back to our students and those interested in antiques,” said founder Peter Green, “It’s been a great privilege to teach so many… it’s just our way of saying thanks.” Exact dates for upcoming events have yet to be released, but are expected to be announced later this month according to school spokesperson, Pamela Drew.
