Testimonials
"I am very pleased to recommend Robyn Roderick, without reservation."
- E. Wynn Wilson, Rose Valley, PA "Having owned a small antique business in Swarthmore (while also living there), I got to know Robyn Roderick more than 25 years ago when she owned a fine art and antiques gallery in town. Her father was a well-respected antiques dealer, and her work with him laid the groundwork for her current profession as a fine arts appraiser." "I've heard many stories about dealers and appraisers, not always complimentary. Through the years I've heard nothing but good reports with regard to Robyn's work. She's highly regarded by people 'in the business' as well as folks less knowledgeable who are seeking accurate evaluation of their paintings and other objets d'art in order to properly insure or sell their treasures. I'm very fortunate to have had Robyn evaluate paintings for me, personally, and have referred several of my clients and friends to her. She's valued for her skills, ability and knowledge - and as a bonus, is appreciated for being an exceptionally nice person with whom to work." "The fine art appraisal process with Robyn was outstanding. In a region where finding certified & professional appraisals can be complex, confusing, and innately expensive, Robyn offered a smooth, calm, and fair-priced service that I would recommend to anyone. Robyn is a swift and effective communicator, which makes the whole process more streamlined, and much more bearable for someone seeking fine art appraisal services. Robyn walked me through the process, step-by-step, and offered insight in multiple facets. If you are faced with the tough decision of choosing an appraiser for fine art, the choice of using Robyn’s services should be crystal clear. Thank you Robyn!"
- Jeffrey Michaelson "It has been such a pleasure meeting you, getting to know you, and working with you to sell our artwork this summer. Your help has been invaluable and you have our thanks for all that you’ve done for us."
- Sarah J. "Thank you for all your hard work on our appraisal. It was a pleasure to meet you. We will be sure to contact you with any new work and to recommend you to our friends.”
- Colleen "As an estate executor, I hired Robyn to appraise a diverse and valuable art collection of over 300 objects that included fine modern American paintings, rare Japanese prints and books, and 16th to 19th century European paintings, prints, and sculptures. She is extremely knowledgeable and well-organized. The validity and integrity of her highly-researched appraisals were confirmed when a number of the works were sold at a top New York auction house for prices very close to her appraised values.
In addition to providing an excellent report on the entire collection, Robyn was very generous in sharing her knowledge and enthusiasm for fine art with me. She is delightful to work with, and I would highly recommend her to anybody seeking art appraisal services.”
