  The Surrealist artist Apple Man is René Magritte. Some people refer to him by the nickname “Apple Man” because many of his artworks depict people with apple heads. Repetition was an important strategy for Magritte, informing not only his handling of motifs within individual pictures but also leading him to produce multiple copies of some of his greatest works. His interest in the idea may have come in part from Freudian psychoanalysis, for which repetition is a sign of trauma. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of René Magritte art.

  1 Answer
  1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024

  Yes, Apple Blossom china may be worth something. Haviland produced the soft pink floral-patterned china for 49 years, and Apple Blossom was one of its most popular patterns ever. Generally, early pieces made during the 1940s and ’50s will be worth more than later ones manufactured in the 1980s. However, the type and condition also play a role in determining the potential value. You can often fetch a higher price by selling Apple Blossom china in sets rather than as individual pieces. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can aid you in the valuation process. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Theodore Haviland china.
