Questions About Currier And Ices
- How old is Currier and Ives?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024Currier and Ives is more than 175 years old. The prominent American printmaking business, headquartered in New York, operated from 1835 to 1907.

- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024To tell if it’s an original Currier & Ives print, get a magnifying glass and study the image up close. If you notice a regular pattern of dots, the piece is likely a reproduction, as the printing techniques used to make originals usually resulted in irregular, non-symmetrical dashes and dots. Next, look at your piece from the side with the naked eye. If the paper appears perfectly smooth and uniform, the print is unlikely to be an original Currier & Ives, which will typically show off variations in luster and texture. When in doubt, have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer help you with the authentication process. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Currier & Ives prints.
