Re: 18th c. Famille Rose Mug |

Message Hello Tim, You have a very nice mug indeed. I think the way the faces are painted fits with the ones I've seen on items from 1730/1760. I think with restorating a piece you never get the value of an undamaged one so the best reason to do so is to have a nicer display.I don't think it will increase the value with the costs of restoration. Small damages I restore myself but others keep it how they "found" it. I also know a lot of collecters who like the old staple restorations. So the best reason to do so is when you like to keep it and want a nicer display. Just my opinion of course. Regards, Arjan Post a Response |
