Please for- ward a photo and a description to me through Whitchurdl Stouflvme this Month or drop it off at Reid's Antiques, 6397 Main St. Stouffville during regu- lar business hours Attic Treasures: I got this Doulton figurine from my Granny several years style and price to choose from. As with all ceramics. condition is a major factor in pricing and with Doulton figures‘ scarcity. age and quality of decoration are also a consideration. Some of the earlier figures are painted with more atten- tion to detail in their faces and costumes and often bring a premium over newer versions of the same model. In today’s market your figurine sells for $300 to $350. by Bob Reid tion. Some iugs and crocks are also decorated with birds. flowers and even butterflies. Salt glaze collectors like to find local pieces and will generally pay more for regional items. The quality of the decoration and, of course, the condition determine what someone will pay. Unfortunately your jug has some damage on the lip that will affect the value. In this condition a jug like this would gener- ally sell for $325 to $375.
