Questions About 1930s Sketch
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024
    How much a Degas sketch is worth depends on its size, medium, condition, historical significance and other factors. In 2008, a pastel, gouache and charcoal sketch by the French artist entitled Danseuses à la Barre sold for around $17,000 at auction. Portraying ballerinas in a dance studio, the work reflects Degas’s interest in dance as a subject, a theme he returned to many times over the course of his career. If you're in possession of a Degas sketch, consider having a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer assist you with the valuation process. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Edgar Degas art.

    To tell if a Picasso sketch is real, first compare the signature on your piece to images of authentic works shared by trusted online resources. Looking for any anomalies and learning about the various materials and techniques that the Spanish artist employed during the different phases of his career can also be helpful. If you know approximately when your sketch was likely produced, you can determine whether the materials and techniques are appropriate for that period. Because there are so many Picasso counterfeits on the market, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer perform a professional authentication. Find a collection of Pablo Picasso art on 1stDibs.

Long sleeves were popular and designs often featured only minimal embellishments like appliqués and beading. Because many people faced difficult financial situations due to the Great Depression, brides also sometimes simply wore their best dresses on their wedding days. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of vintage wedding dresses.

    To identify 1930s furniture, first see if you can spot a maker's mark in hidden areas, such as the back, base, inside of drawers or under tabletops and seats. Trusted online resources can help you determine who produced your furniture based on these markings, and from there, you can research more to get a rough idea of how old your item is. A piece's characteristics can also be helpful when dating furniture. Many items made during the 1930s are examples of Art Deco furniture. Art Deco furniture is characterized by geometric patterns and luxurious materials, such as shagreen, marble, mother of pearl, mirrored glass, exotic animal hides and rare woods like mahogany, ebony and zebra wood. A certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer can provide an expert opinion on when your piece was likely made. On 1stDibs, explore a range of 1930s furniture.
