How can you tell if milk glass is valuable?
1 Answer
To tell if milk glass is valuable, study its details closely. If you spot visible seams, called mold lines, it may indicate that your piece is older and potentially worth more than newer examples of milk glass. You can also look for labels and signatures and then use trusted online resources to determine who produced the milk glass based on these markings. From there, you can search for pieces similar to yours to get a rough idea of their value. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer inspect your glassware and give you an estimate. Find a variety of milk glass on 1stDibs.
