Chinese Pottery Authentication

Chinese Zodiac Figures

As an accredited agent for Oxford Authentication, Ltd, I provide thermoluminescence (TL) testing for porcelain, pottery and bronze core.  I also offer radiocarbon dating for objects containing organic matter such as wood, bone, leather, fabrics, lacquer, etc..

Laboratory tests are often only one part of the authentication puzzle.  Experience, and a trained eye are an invaluable resource.  Since 2003 I have taken samples for the testing of over 1500 objects for clients all across the United States.
