Do you own antiques or collectibles but have no idea of their worth?
It can be very expensive to find out the value of your antiques. Why not use
the internet to find out more information about your antiques and collectibles, or
even post the item for sale and find potential buyers of your antiques (all for free!).
Click here for a free
antique appraisal. Submit a
description and a photo of your antique and find collectors willing to help out by
estimating their worth.
Are you a dedicated antique collector? Help out fellow antique collectors by submitting
your estimate of the below antiques. AntiquesNavigator offers this service completely
free of charge, but other than antique padlocks we are not experts on all antiques
and collectibles. If you own an extremely rare antique that belongs in the Smithsonian,
you're probably better off putting the antique up for auction with Sotherby! However,
if you have more commons antiques and collectibles and are curious to their worth, then
we can help! AntiquesNavigator does not guarantee the accuracy of the free appraisal, so
it might be a good idea to wait until you get at least a couple of responses from our
readers before deciding the value of your antique or collectible.

This is a Harbour-Langmire dresser with mirror. It's in very good shape with minimal fading/scratches to finish. All drawers open and close easily. This was likely purchased in the mid-late 1930's in Oklahoma.
Very nice antique dresser and mirror! I would value your dress and mirror in the $400-500 dollar range. Here's a page with many similar dressers that sold in that price range:
I have a 16 piece tea set. The name/brand is Espana Flamenco BLOCK Bidasoa Spain tea set. Each piece has a patent number on the bottom.

I've never seen an antique nut cracker like yours? It looks to be a mold hand tool, kind of like a musket ball hand tool but in this case it looks like this mold makes walnuts. Place some silly putty in the tool and press out the shape and see what it makes, some sort of nut...
It appears hand forged and its probably worth $100-150 dollars.

Your Book of Common Prayer is worth $150-250 dollars. Here's a link to a antique book store selling a 1848 revision of the book of common Prayer for $250 dollars:
Seven of a set of eight numbered, painted porcelain figurines (number 5 is missing). These figurines are 4" tall; some have gold trim. They are all stamped with the figure number, Taiwan, and a red stamp that looks like two forks side by side, with tines on each end of the short handle. No chips. These were purchased in Taiwan and brought over to the states in the early 1960's.
Taiwan manufactured many figurines and collectibles in the 1960's and 1970's. Your figurines are probably only worth around $10 dollars each. If you had the whole set, it might be worth at the most $100 dollars.
The carriage and horse is about 3 1/2 inches long1 1/2 inches wide and 2 inches high. The roof of the carriage opens on a hinge in the back and could be used to store a ring or two. The side of the carriage is embossed with numerous hallmarks indicating it's heritage.
This Royal Doulton figurine is abut 12 inches high. The base is about 5 1/2 by 3 inches.
The figurine is in pristine condition- no chips, scratches or defects.
It was released as part of a limited edition of 200 figurines. The base has the Royal Doulton hallmark and states clearly that this model was #10 of that release.
Plate on the bottom has star of david with letters EK in the center of it. These are all brass with lens caps on them. Magnification is 15 x 4 degrees. They are angle binoculars and each one is individually adjustable. They work great and are in great ccondition. Could anyone offer some info on the maker and origin please.
I believe you have a pair of military WWII ship binoculars. They would have been mounted on a stand that rotated. I also think they might be quite valuable. Here's a similar pair of WWII Japanese ship binoculars that sold for $3250 dollars!
Hello!
I collected Coca-Cola items for about 10yrs when I was younger. An old, dear family friend gave me a plate & bowl set that he said came home "from the war" (which war, I'm not sure) with his father. I'm guessing these are from the 1940s or so, if not earlier. I cannot find anything online that looks even remotely similar to these plates; however, they do have the trademark Coca-Cola logo on them. I can provide pictures!!
Please call or e-mail me as soon as you can if you think you can help or can at least point me in the right direction. I'm dying to know what I've got here, and if it's rare or just a cool find. Either way, I think it's pretty cool. ;)
Thanks!
I have a very unique timepiece that I purchased at an auction sale over 30 years ago. I have never seen another like it and was wondering if you had any information on it and it's possible worth. The back cover says LANCEL, MADE IN FRANCE and it was mounted on what seemed to be a broken ceramic tile when I purchased it. The front of the clock has 3, 4 point pinwheels that have numbers on the pins as well as the numbers 0 to 60 and the word FRANCE on the face. The metal on the face is gold in colour and has intricate engraving of what appear to be 2 horn-o-plenty type pots with 2 flowers in each.
The hand which indicates the hour number on it sweeps across the face of the timepiece pointing at the number which indicates the minute. This timepiece is in working condition and I have attached some pictures to help try and identify it. Would you be able to assist?
this doll approx 14 inches tall would like any info you could give me on it. thank you here is the link

I believe your vintage doll is wearing a top hat and the brim has been ripped off. In this condition I would value your doll in the $20-30 dollar range.
The writing machine is in excellent condition. No scrstches or dings. Mechanically, it works just fine. The leather covered carrying case is in good shape. The leather is a little dry but has no rips or cuts.
The ribbon is a little dry.
However, finding a buyer at that price might prove difficult, especially in this market. According to this author, the typewriter market is full of delusional pricing and some of these same typewriters are selling for hundreds less on craigslist and elsewhere.
You have a classic typewriter and I'm sure a antique typewriter collector would love to have it in their collection.
The lamp is in excellent condition. It has been modified for electricity. The globe is in pristine condition. The chimny has a large chip on the base (inside the globe).The fuel resivoir and other internal parts are still in place and in good shape.

hi , i have a beautiful handcrafted piece 13" h ,with some information in the bottom :DYNATONE ...each piece of dynastone is individually molded by the hands of craftsmen and then given ahand-rubbed finish that makes each piece a unique creation in itselt... please i need your help if you have any idea about it thank
Your handcrafted vase is very unique. It's hard to put a price on it since it's so unusual. I have never seen anything like it, do you know how old it is or where it was manufactured?
Just taking a guess, I would value your vase in the $100-200 dollar range, but take it with a grain of salt. I've never seen another vase like yours.
These are four original shipping boxes from L.L. Bean dated November 1975, although the newspaper they are packed in is 1971. These are a mixture of cork black mallards and hens and drake mallards. The boxes have never been opened and are still sealed, although over time, the shipping boxes have gotten soft but still not used or opened. Complete with heads and bodies
Parlor Glow No. 18
A very nice little parlor stove with 10 mica windows to view the fire. Made by Southern Co-op Foundry of Rome, GA, it stands 29" high with a 16" by 19" footprint and a 15" firebox. Circa 1920's.
It is in good condition.
Nice vintage bike! Your bike was made by the Meade cycle company in Chicago. I couldn't find the exact one, but I there are numerous examples of "ranger" bicycles with coaster brakes:
Most of the texas ranger bikes I found that have sold previously were from the 1920's. I don't believe your bike is that old, but its still an excellent collectible. I would say it would fetch between $350-750 dollars.
Anything made in hong kong is most likely not an antique (100 years old or older). Hong Kong produced very little before 1950 and had a boom in the 1960s through the 1970s.
I would say your ring holder is from the 1970s or later and is worth around $15-25 dollars.
have some padlocks that I can't identify, need your help.
have one though that is a funny lock, no markings except PATD, the others such as FLYER with a duck is another one, and a couple that has no markings at all.
Wow, you have some nice antique padlocks! What you have is called a story lock. You have the china-man story lock. Its worth $900-1250 dollars minimum.
Story locks were made by the Trenton lock company, in I believe connecticut. They were made in the late 1800's.
I'm very impressed! Nice lock collection!!!
Here's a link to another story lock called the werewolf:
Your other locks are more common. The iron one with a brass keyhole is called a smokehouse padlock and is worth $30-50. The rest are worth probably $20-30 dollars each.
I have a aunt that has asked me to find out the worth of her fisher wood stove said grandaddy but think she means granpa upon my researching.. she would like a range of value it could be worth .or at least the right places to look for correct pricing . She will not pay for an idea . So would appreciate any help you could give me .
Thanks
P.S. This stove is in good condition has been used in her house every winter till this year .
Do you have a photo of your Fisher grandpa wood stove? Some people say its impossible to get a good antique appraisal over the internet, they say without holding the antique or seeing it in person the true value can not be determined. It's even more difficult without even a photo!
