How can you tell if old glassware is valuable?
To tell if old glassware is valuable, you can try conducting research using trusted online resources. Examine the glassware for a maker's mark and then learn through these resources about the manufacturer and the types of pieces that it produced. Then, explore historic sales prices for glassware that is similar to yours. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer assist you with the valuation process.
