Many patterns of China, Stoneware, and other tableware can be quickly collectible and have a high value. However, some are nearly worthless. For your fine china to have significant value, it need not be antique. It doesn’t even really need to be that fine! What it does need to be is at least somewhat in demand. Here are some quick tips to help you determine if your china or tableware is something we would be interested in:

  • China brand patterns that are visually pleasing or traditionally in demand tend to be the best sellers. Some examples of hot sellers are patterns like Lenox Holiday or Autumn, Royal Doulton Carlyle, Royal Copenhagen Blue Fluted, Noritake Royal Orchard, etc.
  • Expensive brands usually have better resale values, as long as they are decent pattern (see the rule above). Even the best makers of Fine China have made many patterns that, in retrospect, are not very aesthetically pleasing. These patterns sometimes have literally no resale value, as there is no demand.
  • High-demand patterns made by Inexpensive or lower-end makers are sometimes collectible and sell for surprisingly good money. Most people think of Mikasa as lower-end China, but some of their patterns sell for surprisingly good money!
  • Quite often, low-demand patterns have one or two rare pieces that are high value. Make sure and send us a complete inventory to be sure we don’t miss a rare piece!

  • Crystal — Waterford, Baccarat, St. Louis, Lalique, Steuben, Val St. Lambert
  • Collectible Patterns — Blue Fluted, Rothschild Bird, Old Country Roses, Autumn by Lenox
  • Complete Sets — Full dinner services with serving pieces are worth significantly more than incomplete sets
