How do I know if my figurines are valuable?

To know if your figurines are valuable, first try to determine the maker. Look for markings on the bottoms or backs of your figurines to get started. You can snap a photo of the markings and perform a reverse image search online or type a description of them into a search engine. Once you have determined the maker, you can do research to learn how much figurines similar to yours have sold for in the past. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer assess your piece and give you an estimate of how much it is worth based on its type, maker, age and condition.
