<p>[QUOTE=&quot;trip98, post: 9514530, member: 65&quot;]I stopped being an antique purist around the time pottery market collapsed. I did very well with 1930s-1950s American made pottery, then moved into studio pottery which does well if you have the right maker. Picking was good for studio pottery for awhile... Now I&nbsp; mostly sell &quot;vintage&quot; which is really retired 1970s-2010ish new designs from upscale makers in Christmas and Dollhouse category. Occasional, I sell genuine antiques (that I think I can resell) and when I can find them. I had a primitives lot about year ago and they sold well. My Asian stuff doesn&#039;t fly off the shelves, but it sells. Sterling sits, probably because I refuse to sell it for scrap. If it comes to that I will scrap it myself. There is hope for the pottery though! My 28 yr old daughter loves the bright pottery of the Bauer and Fiesta era and has reclaimed my collection. She proudly displays it in her place. My 30 year daughter, really likes earthy studio pottery and 1970s furniture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
