Buying art & collectables in Corona
Corona sits at the mouth of a canyon in the inland region and was laid out around a circular boulevard that was once used for motor racing. It has a substantial manufacturing base and a great deal of newer residential development.
Glass, ceramic and plaster travel badly however carefully they are wrapped, and a courier’s claim rarely covers what a broken piece was actually worth. Carrying something home flat on a back seat is the only handling anybody can rely on.
What to check in person
Bring a small torch and look across the surface at a low angle, which throws up overpainting and scratches that vanish under flat light. Ask what has been done to it, since sympathetic restoration is normal and undisclosed restoration is not.
Collecting it in Corona
It needs a car boot rather than a bag, so agree somewhere you can actually stop for a few minutes. That is easier away from the centre than in it.
Driving is essential and the canyon route to the coast congests severely at peak times, so agree a realistic window. Parking is generous within the city.

Say what you know about where it came from and no more than that, and photograph any signature, edition number or gallery label. Give the dimensions with and without the frame, and say whether the glass is intact. Steadier than most categories, with a lift around house moves and clearances.
Peer-to-peer payment apps dominate private sales, and buyers will usually offer one before they offer cash. Sales tax does not apply to a private sale between individuals.
