Local read
Richelle M Kokol is a website-backed, unclaimed FAIR profile for Raleigh. FAIR lists Antiques as the service category and Ceramics - Asian, Music - Instruments, Silver, ISA CAPP, and ISA credential-label language as specialty or credential-like signals, but does not show FAIR verified status, fee language, USPAP education detail, a formal-use routing signal, or claimed profile control. Kokol Appraisal identifies Richelle Kokol, ISA CAPP, in Raleigh and describes personal-property appraisal, advisory, consulting, and cataloging for fine and decorative arts, Asian works of art, musical instruments, and works of art in ivory. The services page lists report purposes including insurance coverage, damage and loss of value, equitable distribution, estate valuation and tax filing, and non-cash charitable contributions, and describes discussion, quote and contract, inspection, and final report or advisory conclusion. Her site and ISA profile add specific depth: Chinese language and art-history study, Shanghai gallery translation experience, Tarisio instrument-market work, Potomack Asian Works of Art cataloging, work under Lark Mason, and handling of Asian ceramics, porcelain, prints, jade, furniture, silver, pianos, stringed instruments, bows, and other fine or decorative arts. The ISA page places her near Raleigh/Apex, lists ISA membership since 2017, and names consultant, donation, estate-tax, insurance-claim, and non-cash charitable-donation services. Confirm service-area logistics, object fit, inspection method, fee terms, report purpose, and standards education directly.
Source-backed fit is clearest for Asian works of art, Chinese and other Asian ceramics, musical instruments, silver, fine and decorative arts, furniture, porcelain, paintings and prints, household contents, and worked ivory objects. The source material supports appraisal and advisory work, not estate-sale operation or general auction-house sale placement without a separate conversation.
Before outreach, describe the object category, maker or culture if known, dimensions, condition, provenance, photos, documents, and whether the need is insurance, estate, donation, tax, equitable distribution, sale planning, inventory, or collection advice. Ask about Raleigh/Apex travel, remote versus in-person inspection, fee structure, report standard, timeline, and categories outside her practice.
Written from registry data and this appraiser's public materials. Descriptive only — not a certification, ranking, or endorsement.
