If a porcelain/ceramic dinner set says made in china is it still antique?
I’m trying to sell a china set on craigslist but I’m not sure if its really antique since it says made in china underneath it. How much do you think it would be worth?
If it’s from one of the many Chinese Dynasty’s it could hold Value…
There should be some markings, other then made in china, some company or artists name, some chinese writing or characters of some sort. It not, do you know it’s history, how old, who had it before you, and how did they acquire it, etc, etc, If you still are not sure, then take it to an appraiser, look in your yellow pages.
As a ball park Figure if it’s from , let’s say the Ming Dynasty, perhaps $5,000.00 or more, but that’s just a guess, don’t want you to get all worked up or anything, some ideas below
this link show some of the markings to look for
