Are Currier and Ives dishes worth anything?
Yes, some Currier and Ives dishes are worth something. Limited edition pieces are most likely to be valuable, and sets often fetch higher prices than individual pieces. Generally, the age, style, type and condition will all play a role in determining the value. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can help you with the valuation process.
