Russell to serve institutional and individual clients in the appraisal and liquidation of furniture, fine art, jewelry and miscellaneous personal effects. We combine Mrs. Russell’s 35+ years of experience in the appraisal and liquidation of estates with a staff of personable, organized associates who have individual areas of expertise. The excellent and highly knowledgeable staff, under the carefu
l direction of Mrs. Russell, forms the core of the Wells Estate Sales team. During the last 35 years the firm has handled hundreds of sales on behalf of clients in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. In every case, we have earned the highest net realizable value in the market. Our commitment to the highest level of service is the mission of our company. Traditionally, we use our own experience to establish market value for items in the estate. However, when necessary we are able to call on a broad base of experts to establish the value of items without incurring additional appraisal expense for the estate. Our sales are always well attended, and it is not unusual for us to have waiting lines in excess of 100 people on the day of the sale. Many of the people in line are repeat customers who have come to expect a high level of organization, market-priced items, and a personable staff willing to answer questions about every item. Wells Estate Sales does not advertise through any media to solicit business but relies on clients to pass on their satisfaction with our prompt, efficient and high quality of work. We feel honored that our regular clients continue to use our services and recommend us to others on a regular basis. We welcome the opportunity to serve you!
