- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024How you can tell if Bauer pottery is vintage is to look at the markings on the bottom. Bauer's backstamps have changed many times over the years, so the wording and whether or not the mark is raised or recessed can help you roughly determine when it was made. You can find image galleries featuring photos of Bauer's maker's marks on trusted online resources. Compare the pictures to your pottery to estimate its year of production. If your piece is 20 to 99 years old, it is vintage. Pottery made 100 or more years ago is antique. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Bauer pottery.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024Many kinds of pottery are worth money. The value of a particular piece depends on its maker, age, type, style and rarity, and trends in collecting that change over time.

Examples of makers coveted by collectors include Bitossi, Royal Crown Derby, Meissen, Wedgwood, Delft, Coalport, Rookwood, Spode, Roseville, Grueby, Moorcroft, Weller, Van Briggle, Paul Revere, Newcomb, Teco, George Ohr and Fulper. If you wish to know how much a particular piece may be worth, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of pottery.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 26, 2024To identify vintage Italian pottery marks, you can research them yourself using trusted online resources or consult a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. One way to begin researching pottery marks on your piece is to take a photograph and then perform a reverse image search. If your search yields no results, type a description into a search engine or review image reference guides devoted to Italian pottery. Once you have identified the maker, learn more about the various markings it has used over the years and use this information to get a rough idea of the age of your piece. To be considered vintage, pottery must be between 20 and 99 years old. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of vintage Italian pottery.
