With a book out on the market on just about any antiques
and collectibles area that you could imagine, it would be a safe bet that you
could find any item fairly fast, right?
Sometimes
it doesn’t work out that way. The
internet can be a great resource for information on the item that you’re
looking for, like a head vase for example.
When I look for something, I start with a fairly broad
search by typing in “head vase”. If that
doesn’t get me what I need, this is when I start typing in specifics. If the piece has a stamp or a sticker with
the makers name on it, I use that.
With you narrowing down the search, you get to the
point where you can find the item you have pretty quickly. It could get to the point where you can find
several listings of the same item as yours so that you have a great price
range.
I remember those head vase/planters! My grandmother kept one on her dresser to hold trinkets and I was fascinated by the eyelashes. Those are really collectible and expen$ive, too. -- Jan
ReplyDeleteHead vases are all the rage right now and there isn't a one to be found at my local flea market. The internet is great for tracking down info! Thanks for stopping by my blog, I've added you to my feed reader thanks!
