Local read
Butenhoff Fine Art & Appraisal Services is an unclaimed FAIR profile in West Palm Beach, FL. FAIR lists Fine art appraisals, Insurance appraisals, Fine Art, Jewelry, and Estate Appraisals, with Fine art, Antiques, Jewelry, Estate, and Insurance service categories plus estate/probate and insurance routing signals; FAIR shows website-backed source evidence checked on 2026-05-16 but does not show a public fee statement or claim/control status. The source site describes appraisal reports based on detailed research and value computation for insurance, probate and succession, asset management, and tax planning. Its appraisal-services page separates insurance scheduling, damage/loss claims, equitable distribution, estate, and non-cash charitable contribution work, and says insurance schedules identify, catalogue, photograph, and assign retail replacement value to fine art. It also lists additional services such as art advisory, artist representation, brokering, collection management, curatorial services, framing, and shipping/handling. The CV page names Kelly Luchini and Sarah Brill, with fine-art education and appraisal training signals including NYU appraisal studies, Appraisers Association of America coursework, International Society of Appraisers coursework, and USPAP coursework. The contact page lists Kelly Luchini, Palm Beach Gardens, and 561.222.0083. Confirm the current appraiser, report purpose, object category, inspection method, fee agreement, deposit/travel terms, and whether jewelry or antiques outside fine art are within scope.
The source-backed fit is formal fine-art appraisal work for insurance, damage/loss, estate, equitable distribution, donation/tax, and collection-management contexts. FAIR also lists jewelry and antiques categories, but the source site is primarily fine-art appraisal and advisory language, so confirm non-art object scope directly.
Prepare artist, title, date, medium, dimensions, signatures, labels, condition notes, purchase records, provenance, prior appraisals, installation/storage details, and report purpose. Ask who signs the report, how value type is selected, whether photos or in-person inspection are required, and how hourly, travel, deposit, and revision terms work.
Written from registry data and this appraiser's public materials. Descriptive only — not a certification, ranking, or endorsement.
