Hello. There is one question that I forgot to ask. Is it possible to try to sell this tapestry through Mearto. I have it listed for sale. However, I have not gone through the Consignment process. I am not sure if the tapestry's value being less than $3,000 does not qualify for consignment. Also, would I need to go through the authentication process etc. to try to sell? Thanks
Not at all, happy to help.
