PRICES IN USD Insurance/Replacement Value $5000 Retail $4800 Fair Market Value $4200 Auction Estimate $3800-$4800 Auction Prices Realized $4200-$4600 (due to rarity and demand) The current market is deluged with modern reproductions and re-silvered, refinished, restored, and re-gilded original antiques. These depreciating processes are comparatively similar to in-painting in fine art, lacquered brass antiques, furniture with married elements and/or original patinas removed and restored, re-applied gilt and gold leaf. Only restored with a reputable restoration company. While esthetically pleasing, the cost of the significantly depreciated value is unfortunately relocated to the uninformed and unsuspecting purchaser if not using a noteworthy restoration firm.(Can recommend throughout the U.S. in major metropolitan cities) Priced accordingly to be only expertly restored. Acquired/Imported from London, England, U.K.
