Are limited edition prints worth buying?

1 Answer
Are limited edition prints worth buying?
Yes, many art lovers believe that limited edition prints are worth buying. Because artists produce only a certain number of limited edition pieces, prints from these series may increase in value over time. Prints are also generally an economical way to grow an art collection based on your interests. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in limited edition prints is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection.
