An antique (Latin: antiquus; old) is an old collectible item. It is collected or desirable because of its age, rarity, condition, utility, or other unique features. It is an object that represents a previous era in human society. Antiques are usually objects which show some degree of craftsmanship, or a certain attention to design such as a desk or the early automobile. They are bought at antique shops, or passed down as an estate. Some valuable antiques can be bought from antique dealers and auction services or purchased online through websites and online auctions. Antique dealers are often members of national trade associations, many of which themselves belong to CINOA, a confederation of art and antique associations across 21 countries, representing 5000 dealers.

GNU Free Documentation License Where can I sell costume jewelry? I saw it on an antiques roadshow once, where do I start to sell it? Q. I'm cleaning out my deceased grandmother's closet, and found tons of old costume jewelry. Some of it is cheap plastic and going to Goodwill, but some of it is actually nice stuff. I saw an Antiques Roadshow once that said a lot of the old broaches were collector's items and were actually worth money, so the question is, where do I start to try to sell or auction some of it? Asked by 78 - Sat Jan 24 16:23:14 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. There is an organization called the Vintage Fashion and Costume Jewelry association. The members are experts and traders and collectors of vintage costume and fashion jewelry. You might make a good start by contacting them. Maybe someone near you is a member and could help you figure something out. Here is there website. You might also go to an antiques consignment shop and see about selling it through them. Just be sure to check their reputation carefully before you leave anything with them.

I have small antiques (children's spoons) and I have large antiques (dining table/4 chairs). I have NO idea how to find the value, nor do I know how to unload them. I know eBay is an option for the small things, but what about the large pieces? I need help! Thanks. Asked by Molly - Thu Apr 20 09:12:42 2006 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. E bay is a good place for all sizes but how do you price them. Go to any local auction house and give it to them on consignment if it has any value they will take it and sell it for a percent fee usually.
