Questions About Currier & Ives Figurative Prints
- 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. Nathaniel Currier started his business on his own but later merged with James Merritt Ives, becoming "Currier and Ives" in 1857. They produced and sold hand-colored lithographs, which could be produced relatively quickly and cheaply. Explore a collection of Currier and Ives prints on 1stDibs.
- 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024Yes, some Currier and Ives pieces are worth something. The company published around 7,500 lithographs in its 72 years in business, and some, such as The American National Game of Base Ball, have sold for more than $75,000 in the past. Generally, the historical significance, image quality, age and condition of the publisher's prints will determine their worth. A certified appraiser or experienced art dealer can evaluate any prints you own using these criteria and give you an idea of how much they may be worth. Find an assortment of Currier & Ives prints on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024Yes, some Currier and Ives dishes are worth something.

Find a selection of Currier and Ives art and tableware on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022To tell if your Currier and Ives print is real, make sure that the print has the proper information.
