Prices swing widely. Small collectibles run $10 to $100, quality vintage furniture $150 to $1,500 or more, and rare pieces far higher. Condition, provenance, and demand matter more than age alone.

How can I tell if an antique is real or a reproduction?

Do Boston antique shops buy or appraise items?

Many do. They buy estates and single pieces and offer appraisals. If you are selling, call ahead and bring photos or the item.
