About Patina
Twenty five years of knowing what things are worth
We began in a single room on Church Street, cataloguing the contents of Charleston houses for families who needed someone to tell them what mattered and what did not. That work has not changed.
Today we handle full estate liquidations, single owner collections, and individual consignments across the Southeast. Every lot is catalogued by a specialist who knows the field, priced against what the market has actually paid, and photographed properly before it reaches the block.

Services
However you have
come to be here
Estate liquidation
Full house clearances handled end to end, from the first walkthrough to final settlement, cataloguing and selling every lot.
Single-owner auctions
For collections of a scale and quality to stand on their own, we build a dedicated sale around the collector and their story.
Appraisals & valuations
Written valuations for insurance, estate planning, probate, and equitable distribution, prepared by a specialist in the field.
Consignment
For the individual piece. Bring us one object or one lot and it enters the next appropriate sale alongside similar property.

From first call to final settlement
Selling through us is straightforward. Here is what to expect.
