Rules
1 No common items allowed, where the price can easily found on Ebay, Craigslist, or FB Marketplace Tell us what you know about the item, where it's from, who made it... tell us the story of the item.
2 Provide several clear photos of all angles. If there's a mark, serial #, or signature include that.
3 You must own the item being posted, or a friend/relative must own the item.
- We only allow one-of-a-kind, original, and signed limited edition artwork. If you don't know what a decor painting is look it up. Signed and numbered prints don't count. Generally the artist must be famous enough to have a page on ArtNet, Ebay or WorthPoint. If they don't, then its not a good fit here. Nudity is OK, please flag as NSFW.
5 Ivory is illegal to sell or import in the US as well as most of the EU. While the sale of antique, (100 year or older) ivory is allowed in the US, there are very specific rules about it. This is beyond the scope of this sub and we will not be giving valuations of a potentially illegal item. Please Google Ivory laws for more info.
No paper money or coins. There are better subs than this for paper money and coins
About Prints The practice of making signed and numbered prints of artwork is to make a painting affordable to a wider audience. If an art work was originally done in a different medium but then signed and numbered prints are sold, it's essentially a reproduction and value is negligible. It's best to look up the artist on ebay and look at sold prices.
Art values are subjective at best, and if you can't find the artist when you Google them it's safe to say they are not worth more than you paid.
8 No Furniture. Furniture despite age, has negligible value. Most old wooden furniture is not in fashion and resale value is usually under 500 dollars. Please do a Google search. We do not value furniture. Mass produced furniture has low resale value, even antique furniture. One of a kind pieces are only valuable if they are of very high quality AND have provenance. If you want information on the furniture try r/antiques.
No clothes, try a fashion sub. The exception would be an obvious Couture piece that is a one of a kind. If you bought it at a thrift store it doesn't belong here.
No Nazi memorabilia. Just, no.
9.No jewelry. Modern jewelry, as in post 1920, is clearly marked with karat weight. Jewelry is easy to look up or, take it to a commercial jeweler. We can't verify authenticity from a photo.

Sunday post 60's Saladin productions band posters my dad gave me a box of.
galleryI just went through these, and they seem to be all immaculately kept for the last 60 years. I have no idea what I'm looking at in terms of value, if any. I have about 30 copies of each and there are more in the box. Possibly around 200 posters total.

Sunday post Furtwangler & hudson opticians case and antique spectacles marked 14k
galleryI understand they will have a minimum melt value, but I cannot find any other markings on the frames. Just curious if these are something special besides the obvious. According to the internet the case was made between 1870 and 1884, however I cannot confirm the case belongs to the glasses. They were in the case when I acquired them out of a dumpster bound for a landfill.

Sunday post Silver Cutlery
galleryHi,
I inherited this cutlery set. It's approx. 2kg (old scale so could be wrong).
A, B, C, D have "Boulenger"
A and C have "BLANC 84"
B has "BLANC 60"
D has "BLANC 18"
E has "(?) & Be" and "BLANC [two stars]"
F has "Andover silverplate"
G has "Heritage Canada E.P. Brass"
H has "Community"
Not sure what I is, I can't find any engraving. Also it's rusty and grimy as hell.
I also have two platters but I can't find anything on them either. One is absolutely disgusting and the other is in better shape.
Does anyone know what this is all worth? I tried to look it up but I can't find much info. From what I understand the "blanc" means it's plated? It was very tarnished/oxidized(?) and I cleaned everything using a silver cleaner with cloth. Thank you
