It seems whenever someone drops a question in here, they rarely get much of a response. Still, I’ll throw this out there anyway. If anyone happens to know, please weigh in.

I have this mirror. It’s quite old, absolutely stunning, and massive—genuine crystal, measuring 211 cm by 117 cm.
It features a simple, solid brown frame. Any idea what kind of price tag I could put on this? Does anyone have any insight? 😍

Hey, I’m really hoping someone here can point me in the right direction...
I was wondering how much I should realistically ask for this painting of Omer Berber--
It's from 1987... the frame is actually gorgeous, and it's about 60x70 cm...
thanks...

Thanks in advance for the help!

It’s an oil on board piece by S. Tafra, maritime theme. Dimensions are 89x59.

Not sure about the year...

Looking for an estimate or maybe some advice on who I should reach out to regarding its value.

Thanks!

Honestly, I’ve actually seen cases where people would just haul his paintings down to the local scrap yard—you know, looking for a quick buck—and they'd get maybe a hundred bucks for them.
But if we're being real here, $333 the market for his stuff has pretty much hit a ceiling lately. Back in the day, you could probably move one of his pieces for way more than that... but those days are long gone.
Anyway, that’s just my two cents based on what I've seen with his work.
I actually know of one of his oil paintings—something big, like 200x100 cm—that's just hanging there in a local metal recycling center, and the owner is basically asking for $133.

Hey there. I’ve got zero clue about art or painting, so I’m looking for some help here.
I have this painting at home—a wedding gift—by Lacković. Personally, I’m betting it’s the real deal because we got it directly from someone who was close friends with the artist. The thing is, every original I’ve seen online has this red stamp or seal to prove it's legit. On my painting, there’s this embossed mark that's basically the same color as the paper itself. I’ll upload some photos, so if anyone actually knows their stuff, please tell me if this is the real McCoy. Also, any idea what it might be worth or where I should go if I decide to offload it? I need the lowdown so I don't get ripped off by some shady dealer.

Having some minor issues uploading photos from my phone, so I might just have to email them to someone who can help me out. Thanks.

It could be a hand-drawn sketch—I won't know for sure until I actually see a photo—but honestly, it might just be one of his prints, since God knows he produced more graphics than there are pennies in a jar...
Anyway, regardless of what it is, if it isn't an oil on glass piece from before the 90s, it’s probably not worth much.
In most galleries, his prints usually go for anywhere from $700 to $667 depending on the size and how they were made.
Realistically though, you can find his prints for about $400 to $333... like I said, he churned out a ridiculous amount of them...

How much would a Vesna Parun watercolor actually be worth? She was primarily a poet, though she did paint quite a bit. Does that kind of work hold any real value?

How much are you looking to get, and where are you planning on trying to sell this wood carving?

Reasking the question—this is about a copy my mom picked up
Hey everyone, I need a little help here... My mom has a canvas replica of a painting by Pieter Bruegel the Younger from the 16th century. The subject is the Adoration of the Magi, produced by Edizioni Beatrice D'este Milano. I’m trying to dig up some more info on it, but I'm hitting a wall. Any idea if anyone here knows about these specific copies? Or maybe you could point me toward a website or a resource where I can actually ask someone about it? The copy is numbered, which usually implies there’s some actual value since they aren't just mass-produced junk. If anyone has a lead or a link, I’d really appreciate it.

Regarding the painting itself, it’s a solid quality canvas replica. It’s numbered and says:
D/827-PIETER BRUEGHEL junior-Die Anbetung der Heilingen Drei Konige
Since it’s numbered, it has to be worth something. The originals are kept in London, and apparently, the Beatrice d'este family holds the rights for this. That's all I know, but a limited series suggests it isn't worthless. Can anyone give me an estimate, tell me more about this piece, or explain what that number actually signifies? Please.

I was wondering if anyone has any idea what a larger Šebaljev Pušać oil painting might go for? Also looking for some insight on a wooden sculpture by Vulas Šime and a stone piece by Fabris.
I’ve also got a hand-colored ink and watercolor drawing by Ivan Lacković here, so I'm curious about the market value on that too. I have photos ready to go if anyone wants to take a look.

I have this violin at home that came all the way from Canada. My folks got it from some elderly lady who claims it’s been passed down through her family for generations. It still has the original case and everything, so I was wondering where on earth I could go to get a proper appraisal?

I’m looking for someone who might be able to help me figure out the value of an old transit pass—something genuinely antique, probably over a century old, used back when steamships and steam locomotives were actually the standard way to get around. I'm particularly curious about what something this vintage might fetch, especially since it features some beautiful, hand-written calligraphy from over a hundred years ago.

Hey everyone. I have a quick question—does anyone happen to know roughly what these two pieces might be worth?

1. "Owl," by J. Generalić—watercolor/silk screen, size 50x35

2. "First Pier," by J. Generalić—watercolor/silk screen, size 50x35

Thanks to anyone who can help me out... 🙂

Can someone help me out with this old playing card? It’s over a hundred years old—features some steamship and steam locomotive stuff—and I'm curious what something this vintage is actually worth... especially since there's an old letter attached to it written in calligraphy from way back when.

For the letter, maybe hit up a stamp collecting club—they might be able to give you a lead on the card too...

Robin Sanders3 said:Honestly, it all depends on what you've got sitting in front of you—prices vary wildly based on the specific piece.
And just a heads up, those prices you see floating around online? They don't really reflect what’s happening in the actual market right now.
For instance, someone like Klement Menci Crnčić—who’s way more sought after than Mirković these days—can easily fetch anywhere from $1,500 to $2,000 for decent, large-scale oils if you find the right buyer.

Gentlemen,
Could someone please provide some contacts or leads on where I might acquire Crnčić oils in that $1,500–$2,000 range?
Many thanks.

Walter Rodriguez said:I was wondering if anyone might have some insight regarding this piece—it’s an oil painting on old linen, roughly 24x31 inches. The only identifying marks are the initials "J.T." and what looks like "40FZ" scribbled in pencil behind the canvas.

BUMP!

So, I was wondering if someone here might be able to give me an appraisal on this piece. It’s an old Titin projector that runs on graphite. The manufacturer and specific model details are Ernemann 2-Zeiss Ikon-Klangfilm, Type KL 52043, Factory No. 120, Kinematograph 3K. Could anyone tell me a bit more about what this actually is and what kind of value we're looking at?
