  • Art Dealers?

    So my friend went to thrift store hunting and found a metal sculpture that turns out to be worth something around $2000-$5000. Anyone know how you would you go about authenticating it?

        Where's the damn antique road show when you need them!

        This is what it is similair to.



        A company called C. Jere made them but finding someone reputable local is a little difficult to find.

            She bought the sculpture in Dallas at a thrift store for $10. She's a single mom going through rough times so it was awesome she came upon it.

                      Jackball like jack in the box. Its about 2-3 ft so its not extraordinarily big. I saw one that was about 4-5ft going for about $6000.

                      And on a side note I may need an estimate on some stained concrete. I checked your link.

                        They'll offer you 250 dollars "cash money"! Even though it just got valued
                        between 2500-5000 Dollars.

                          She can take it to a museum and they can point her in the right direction. Hell a lot of them have people there that can do it.

                          Just shoot me a PM with what you want and how much sqft you have.
