19th Century French Mother-of-Pearl and Gold Ladies’ Carnet

Nobody does estates like Juan! We had interviewed all the supposedly top firms
in Miami, but they all require a tedious and lengthy — almost yard sale type —
approach. This is particularly tough when one is going through a family loss.
Juan takes a much more efficient and professional competition approach that
comes together within hours with great results. Highly recommend a call with
him so he can explain his innovative methods. We were extremely satisfied!

V. E. Beach
Architect, S. FL and CA

What a pleasure to be in the hands of a professional. Lluria Fine Arts did a
spectacular job twice for me and a friend…He gives conservative appraisals,
but in both cases, was able to over-deliver. bravo and thank you.

Diane Ashley
Retired Wealth Management Professional, Miami, FL

Honestly, if you want an effective and hassle-free process, this is the place.
I realized a very satisfactory price thanks to their wide network of serious
buyers. The transaction was smooth, and the payout was incredibly fast
(just a couple of days!). I will definitely use them again.

Ray Sighler
Business Owner, Miami, FL

Lluria Fine Arts Services, LLC did a superb job for us. We appreciated their
professionalism, knowledge and connections with others in the industry. They
were reliable and thorough. Thank you.

Nancy Williams Stroh
Retired Executive Banking Professional, Coral Gables, FL Resident

Working with Lluria Fine Arts was a truly exceptional experience. Juan managed
the estate sale of my recently deceased mother and did so with kindness, grace,
humor and the highest level of ethics and professionalism. I could not have
done it with anyone else. The friends to whom I have referred Lluria Fine Arts
were also very pleased with their work. I continue to confidently recommend
Lluria Fine Arts.

Adria Aguado

An excellent experience. Juan was courteous, professional, and incredibly
knowledgeable. He was meticulous and comprehensive in his appraisals. He is
also just a genuine and caring individual. You don’t encounter a person like
that very often these days.

Larry Sanders MD
Coconut Grove

I have had the pleasure of working with Juan for well over 30 years. He is
professional, very knowledgeable detailed and trustworthy. Over the years we
have developed a friendship that always made working with him a delight. I have
many stories to tell. One that stands out is when Juan found a diamond ring in
a secret drawer in a small table where he was looking for a signature mark from
the artist. It appeared that the decedent hid her engagement ring there without
telling anyone. Juan immediately showed the ring to me, and we were able to add
it to the decedent’s inventory. As I said earlier, Juan is highly trustworthy
and I recommend him as tops in his field.

My sister and I recently had the pleasure of working with Juan, liquidating
mother’s small estate. From the onset, he was impressive with his vast and
varied knowledge of many periods of furniture and objects d’art. Juan is a
wonderful storyteller and an even better LISTENER and has a brilliant memory.
A very valuable tool for a person in his profession, remembering having
read/heard attended/given an article/lecture which addresses a subject which
may just have value to your case. Reassuring his clients will receive a fair
value for your items, LFA Services, quickly, discreetly, professionally and
fairly organized, engaged, managed and liquidated our estate, bringing an
out-of-town buyer which bought the contents en bloc. We BARELY had to lift a
finger. Thank you Juan!!

Mari Bueno
Pompano, FL

Juan P Lluria did an exceptional job appraising my late stepmother’s antique
furniture. He is exceptionally knowledgeable when it comes to antique
furniture, silver, porcelain and paintings. He works in a timely manner; he is
exceptionally easy to deal with, as his deep knowledge goes with an equally
deep and successful desire to help. I cannot recommend him too highly.

Olivier Bernier
Author, New York City

I was lucky enough to have met and worked with Juan who patiently worked my
parents’ estate! I can’t say enough of his professionalism and knowledge!!
Thanks to him the painful process of going thru family heirlooms was smooth,
efficient and quick with a very satisfactory bottom line! I highly recommend
Juan and his team!

Christina Ubing
Retired Banker, Northern Trust Bank, Key Biscayne, FL

I first met Juan Lluria over ten years ago when he masterfully liquidated the
estate of legendary lawyer, Dan Paul. Thus, when a long-time friend of mine
passed away a few years ago, I called upon Juan to help me liquidate that
estate. Juan was very thorough in his research of the items I was liquidating
and was able to match me up with a buyer in the market for the majority of
those items. I was pleased with the end result and he even put me in touch with
a thrift shop where I could donate the lesser value items that I were not being
liquidated. Juan exhibited a personal interest in my situation and was
sensitive to my feelings in parting with connections to my long-time friend.
I highly recommend Juan as an estate appraiser.

Ken Sternweis
Miami Beach Resident

It has been a pleasure working with Juan Lluria of Lluria Fine Arts for many,
many years. He has an exceptional eye for finding the items of value in a
cluttered house and then locating the perfect buyer. Juan consistently under
promises and over delivers, rare but always appreciated. He has broad expertise
across a wide swathe of fine arts and a cadre of specialists to call on if
needed. He understands the market and is patient about explaining current
conditions. He successfully handled many estate liquidations and I am always
amazed by the ultimate sales proceeds which were realized due to his efforts
and professionalism. It is lovely to have such a professional to consistently
deliver results.

Cynthia Marquez
Retired Paralegal, Miami

I met Juan when I was interested in finding a private broker to sell some items
at a time of downsizing. He was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He
was very accessible and found me a buyer in a timely manner, which was important
to me. I would highly recommend his services.

Hillary Canning, MD
Miami

Mr Lluria is first and foremost a Gentleman, whether contemplating the sale of
family heirlooms or other prized possessions.

Mr. Lluria walks you through the process and possibilities and then most
importantly directs you to think about those and what might be the best option
for you, the seller. He never pushes, instead proffering gentle nudges, so you
make the final decision, based on all the offers at hand.

Thank you JP, your kindness and professionalism are most appreciated by me,
your client. You secured a fair and very good offer for the items I sold.

Josie Goytisolo
Retired News and Media Executive, Coral Gables

I have known and worked with Lluria Fine Arts for decades, during which the
company has facilitated various undertakings for me with noticeable success.
Recently, they organized an effective liquidation sale for me with great
results. I recommend their services wholeheartedly.

Professor Frank Copper

Celebrity Harpsichord Performer and Retired Music Professor, University or Miami

I have known Juan Lluria for over 25 years and have used his services during
that time with confidence. I have recommended him to my clients or family for
estate appraisals or for liquidation of estates. His professionalism and vast
knowledge are beyond compare.

Peggy Roberts McMahon
Interior Designer ASID, Coral Gables

Mr. Lluria has been of service to me on two separate occasions. The first was
a large estate sale that was extremely well organized and efficient. The second
was a privately brokered sale where I wanted to relieve myself of some items
and he chose a buyer for the items. I have known Mr. Lluria for over 25 years
now and consider him to be a tremendous resource when selling art, furniture,
antiques, or objets d’art. I recommend him to everyone and would call upon his
services again.

Sheila Carrera Justiz, MD
Gainesville, FL

Lluria Fine Arts was entrusted with the liquidation of assorted art, luxury
items and a very large important collection of designer handbags, clothes and
jewelry accumulated over a 40-year career in the fashion industry. they spent
many days curating the collection and laying/hanging it out for display. Sale
day was by invitation only to dealers in our goods. Five dealers came. They
were duly impressed with the goods. Four submitted written offers. Three were
above our projected price range. the winning offer was well into 6 figures.
I was paid by bank transfer in 2 days. All of the sold merchandise was removed
in 2 days. unsold goods were taken by Lluria Fine arts to be donated.
WHAT A RELIEF. all done in about 10 days.

William Quesenberry
Coral Gables

I want to thank Juan for the thorough and expeditious work he did for me selling
the furniture and antiques in my recently deceased father’s home.

Juan has known both of my parents since the 80’s and has worked with them many
times since. My father recently died, leaving a large home full of furniture
that I had no idea what to do with. I called Juan and he came over the next day
to go through and catalog the entire house. Then, he called me back within
48 hours informing me that he was able to sell more than half of it! He
coordinated the entire pick-up and payment process with his buyer and everything
was paid for and gone before the end of the week!

I want to thank him for resolving a such painful experience so quickly and
painlessly. He was easy to work with it and wastes no time, exactly what I
needed in this particular situation. I would definitely work with him again!

Michael J. Svaldi
Hendersonville, NC

I’m so glad I contacted Lluria Fine Arts Services to dispose of my mother’s
estate. He was very professional and knowledgeable and knew exactly what should
be sold and what should be donated. One of the best investments I ever made as
I was very pleased with the amount of money realized from the sale.

Philip Pessar
Retired Businessman and Investor, Miami

This review is to recommend, highly, Juan Luria, and Luria Fine Arts Services.
I was in the FBI for nearly three decades and now work as an investigator and
security expert. Assessing people is my stock-in-trade. I met Juan early in
2023 and we worked together on a massive project over many months. His skill
and expertise in every aspect of adjudging the value of every form of item
which one could possibly own has measured up to be both honest and accurate.
My own work also involves recovering stolen impressionist paintings, worldwide,
and I have dealt with very-high-end clients and museums. It was a pleasure to
work with Juan, whose knowledge fits right into the kind of people who make
this field manageable for those in need of his services.

His high standard of ethics and comprehensive understanding of the field are
of great benefit to all of his clients. Timeliness and trustworthiness are
indispensable in this business. He more than fulfills the needs required of
him, and when the occasion arises, he can explain to the uninitiated facts
about their valuables–which he does so professionally and with the appropriate
demeanor–whether in estate sales, or however the circumstances come his way.
Juan has longtime roots in the community, and solid connoisseurship with art
and fine antiques. His patience and flexibility are essential. I highly
recommend Juan Luria and Luria Fine Arts Services, Inc.
