What JF Bastok buys in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert

What determines the value
To value an antique, one must identify what it is, its maker, artist or workshop, its period and origin, then examine its condition, any restorations and its provenance. A signature, a factory mark or an untouched piece often make the difference.
Home appraisal in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert
JF Bastok travels from Waterloo anywhere in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert, whether you live in Roodebeek, Kapelleveld, Gribaumont, Tomberg or the Andromède area. He also covers neighbouring towns such as Woluwe-Saint-Pierre, Auderghem and Watermael-Boitsfort, and more widely in Brussels.
Before the appointment
Don’t restore or clean an item before the appraisal: a clumsy restoration can wipe out much of its value. Also keep any documents, invoices or old labels that come with it.
