Local read

PKR Antiques is an unclaimed FAIR profile listed for West Palm Beach, FL with antique and personal property appraisals, auction and market guidance, jewelry, estate appraisal, and insurance appraisal signals. FAIR shows website-backed source evidence checked on 2026-05-16, but no FAIR-listed fee statement, public USPAP education detail, or claim/control status. The source site identifies Robert Waterhouse as founder of PKR Antiques & Fine Art, describes a focus on Chinese and Asian antiques and art, and says PKR serves South Florida from Miami, West Palm Beach, the Treasure Coast, Vero Beach, Orlando, Naples, Sarasota, Fort Myers, and St. Petersburg. The site says Robert has over a decade in Chinese and Asian antiques, has worked on three continents, has been retained by international auction houses, has appraised for public institutions in Philadelphia, New York, and Virginia, and appears as an appraiser on PBS Antiques Roadshow. PKR's service pages describe appraisals, buying, dealer guidance, image review, in-home or on-site appraisals, estate and collection work, and written reports for insurance, estate planning, and resale. For a local owner, this profile is most specific when the object may be Chinese or broader Asian art, jade, porcelain, metalwork, furniture, Buddhist art, snuff bottles, paintings, jewelry, silver, or decorative art; confirm current scope, fee terms, conflict position if PKR may buy the object, and report-use requirements directly.

The source-backed specialty is Chinese and Asian antiques and art: porcelain, pottery, ceramics, bronzes, metalwork, jade and jadeite, snuff bottles, Buddhist art, scholars' objects, furniture, paintings, calligraphy, Japanese and Southeast Asian objects, and some modern Indian and Southeast Asian art. The site also says Robert has dealt in decorative arts, paintings, silver, jewelry, furniture, and broader non-Asian objects.

Before contacting PKR, prepare clear photos, measurements, marks, signatures, inscriptions, labels, condition notes, provenance, receipts, prior auction records, family history, and the report purpose. Ask whether the work is an appraisal report, sale estimate, purchase offer, brokerage, estate review, insurance support, or resale guidance, and request written fee and conflict terms before sending sensitive documents.
