The Nakashima Foundation for Peace is the only source available to provide authentication and true replacement value of any pieces made by George or Mira Nakashima. Using detailed Nakashima archives, we are able to research and locate the order records of any Nakashima piece made from the early 1950’s to today.

Furniture Authentications

We are able to provide official authentication from Mira Nakashima and a copy of the original order card for your keeping when a record of purchase can be confirmed. As a courtesy to original owners and their descendants, records of purchase and authentication letters are offered at a reduced rate.

Insurance and Replacement Valuations

In consultation with our archival records, we are able to suggest a replacement value – the price that the item would cost if purchased from our studio today. The secondary market may value vintage Nakashima pieces differently, which can be estimated by modern furniture dealers or auction houses that specialize in 20th century design. 

We welcome direct inquiries. To help guide our evaluation and estimate of work, please provide an image of your piece along with a detailed description of your request.
