About Us

In times of stress, it is easy to become overwhelmed. There is nothing so stressful as the death of a family member or a necessary move to an assisted living situation. The possessions of a lifetime, often with great sentimental value and memories, need to be liquidated. This is where we can help. We are professional antiques dealers and people with families, who understand the tribulations of transitional times. With compassion but also necessary distance, we can guide you through the process and lift some of the burden from the family’s shoulders.

Brown Tag Estate Sales is a boutique company founded in 2011, by Jan Jarvis. Before that she sold, repaired, and imported antiques since 1985. Recently, she is the process of passing on the company to Patrick Vale, an esteemed, veteran Seattle Antiques dealer. He, too, maintains a knowledgeable and trustworthy crew who bring their own specialized knowledge to your estate. Brown Tag only takes two sales a month so you may rest assured that all efforts are undivided for your liquidation. We also have expert research skills and a wide circle of specialist consultants for collections, such as art, Oriental carpets, antique jewelry and other fine antiques and décor.

Potential sale dates are in high demand! Call us early in the process to see how we can be of service.
