Corporate & Hospitality Clients | Fine Art and Antique Appraisal Services in Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Orange County, San Diego, and Santa Barbara

For corporations, luxury hotels, and hospitality brands, art is more than decoration—it’s identity, legacy, and investment. High-value artwork, sculpture, and antique furnishings elevate space, communicate prestige, and serve as tangible assets on the balance sheet. Yet, like any other asset, they require accurate documentation, valuation, and protection.

The Importance of Appraisals for Corporate and Hospitality Clients

For corporations and luxury properties, fine art often serves both aesthetic and strategic purposes. It strengthens brand identity, inspires workplace culture, and communicates refined values to guests and stakeholders. However, it also represents significant capital investment that must be properly documented and insured.

Professional appraisals ensure these assets are recorded at fair market or replacement value, allowing companies to protect investments, meet accounting standards, and plan for future acquisitions or donations.

In the hospitality sector, art plays a central role in guest experience. From boutique hotels in Beverly Hills to luxury resorts in San Diego and cultural properties in Santa Barbara, art collections add distinction and emotional resonance. ARTXPRT works closely with general managers, developers, and curators to document and appraise collections that define the property’s brand identity.
