My mom had given me an antique mason/canning jar a long time ago, and I was wondering if it was worth anything. It says “Good Housekeepers Regular Mason” on it and it also says “St. Louis” on the bottom of it. I know that Ball Mason jars are a dime a dosen, but I’ve never seen a mason jar like this before and I haven’t had any luck doing internet searches.

tt s asked:
my mom is a huge fan of antiques so all of our furniture are antiques and we have 2 really rare pieces, one of them is an indonesian church door that was made into a cabinet and we bought it from tequila kola and they told us that there is only a few in the world the other piece is a camel cart from India and its really rare. Anyways my mom wanted to get new furniture since were moving and she wants a new style to the house, and she wants me to sell the 2 rare piece on ebay. Will it actual sell because the price we will put up is quite alot compare to the other stuff on ebay, if it wont where else can we sell it to…i like in HK (hong kong) just incase.

i saw a show a few years ago that showed how they pour the stuff in the mold and put the colorin it too, when they come out they look just like the old rail fences you see in pictures. its very hard to tell they are not old. I want to find the company that makes them if they are still making them?

I don’t want to lessen the value of anything if they are worth something. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Auction or estate sale? What’s the best way to sell off furniture and antiques?
Filed Under Other - Home & Garden | 4 Comments
December asked:
We’re downsizing and need to get rid of some furniture and assorted antiques. Has anyone out there had experience dealing with auction houses or estate sale dealers?
We’re downsizing and need to get rid of some furniture and assorted antiques. Has anyone out there had experience dealing with auction houses or estate sale dealers?
Should we send the stuff to an auction house(some of the pieces are large)? Have an on-site auction? Have an estate-type sale? We’re trying to decide which way to go.
Thanks for your help!
