How do I know if my chair is valuable?
1 Answer
To know if your chair is valuable, look for a label, stamp or other marking that indicates the maker. Then, look it up using trusted online resources to find out who produced the chair. Once you have identified the maker, you can check out sales histories on online platforms to get an idea of how much it is worth. Keep in mind that the condition of your piece will also influence its value. As a result, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer inspect your chair and provide you with a professional opinion. Find a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary chairs on 1stDibs.
