Valuing antique glass at Vendu Maastricht

Glass is a special collecting area with a lot of variety. The value of glass depends on material, age, technique and maker. Our experts pay attention to:

• Origin and signature (e.g. Leerdam, Murano, Daum, Orrefors)
• The technique used (blown, etched, cut)
• Artistic and historical value
• The condition of the glass: chips, breaks or restorations
• Demand in national and international markets

A well-preserved object from a well-known glass artist or glass factory can be surprisingly worth a lot.

We offer several ways to value your glassware, choose the way that works best for you to find out the value of your antique glass work.

• Free valuation days: every Tuesday between 10:00 and 16:00 at our location at Bredestraat 23 in Maastricht, we hold a free valuation day. Bring your object or show clear photos so our experts can give an indication of its value.

• Online valuation: upload photos and information (dimensions, any signature, damage) via our form. You will receive a valuation within a few working days.

• Home valuation: for larger collections or fragile objects, our expert will visit you at home. Contact us for an appointment.

For insurance or estate purposes, we prepare official valuation reports in accordance with the Federation TMV guidelines. Our valuation rates apply to valuations for these purposes.

Our appraisers have in-depth knowledge of antique and modern glass. They closely follow market developments and cooperate with collectors, museums and other experts. You always get an honest and well-founded estimate of the value.
