You also need to determine if your vintage piece has been restored by a rofessional or an amateur.
Always ask an expert to determine if the value of your piece has been lowered due to this.

Just because a piece may be brokendoes not mean it has lost its value.
In some cases, you might be able to �nd a dealer who is willing to buy the piece as is to use for parts to restore similar antiques.

Asking an appraiser in the �eld of the item you are looking for is a terri�c way to not only get an accurate quote but to learn more about what
aspects they look at to determine value.

Most times appraisers will only offer the median value of similar items rather than top price. If you ever question what a fair price is, usually a
little research of what the recent selling price was will determine what you will receive for the item.
