I had to send the same email several times to finally get a response saying they would get back to me. It has been over a month and I still have not heard anything. I'm assuming I've essentially been ghosted at this point. The individuals at TK Asian might be some of the most unprofessional and unresponsive appraisers I have ever interacted with. The way they do business is...
Read moreSimply the best in Asian antiques and furnishings.. there is no better place than this anywhere. The extensive knowledge that Lee that this group of folks has is unparalleled.added to the fact that a soon to be aired tv special comes out soon too. These folks deserve your drop in. Yes there was a Bentley parked in The parking lot which kinda scared me a bit on pricing. However prices I thought were pretty fair. For antiques. I love Asian antiques and this location has everything from a 25,000 table made of burlwood to a simple antique chair. Awesome...
