Is vintage brass worth anything?

1 Answer
Is vintage brass worth anything?
Yes, some vintage brass may be worth something. However, selling prices for pieces vary greatly. The maker and type of brassware are two key factors when assessing the potential value. For example, there is a market for mid-century modern brass lighting fixtures produced by Hans-Agne Jakobsson. The condition of your piece will also have an impact on how much it is worth. To get an expert opinion, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of brass lighting, furniture and decorative objects.
