It has always fascinated a huge audience, a success due not only to the breadth of choice it offers but also from the fact that it often makes our homes unique and precious places, we are talking about collectible items . An incredibly vast world, without borders, limited only by our imagination and personal taste; just like that, because the passion for collecting objects arises from the curiosity, taste and sensations that certain objects transmit to us.

For some time, embellishing or starting your own collection has become a much simpler practice than it was in the past thanks above all to the birth of numerous auction sites , where collectors from all over the world compare and exchange their unique objects. and high quality. Searching for something and finding it has become very easy, just a click away.

Collectible items as an investment

For the more pragmatic, collecting objects could also be an investment , since each collection has an economic value, based on the type of objects it collects and the rarity of the specimens it can boast. A collection can also be worth based on the interest it arouses in others, we must remember that in the world there will always be at least one other collector interested in buying what we have collected over the years, because no collection (except in some cases) has an end.

Collectible items

Collecting objects can be interesting, relaxing, instructive, profitable and could make our home a small personal museum. Here are some examples:

Pottery

You start to collect them almost always to keep a memory but then they drag completely with their beauty. The ceramics especially artistic ones represent one of the most popular categories of objects by collectors. Many ceramic collectors favor collections of decorative plates, handcrafted crafts or produced in limited editions.Cymbals are certainly the most esteemed category for their extreme versatility. Ideal as refined centerpieces, as precious display and collectible objects. These plates, sometimes decorated with classic subjects, floral motifs, sometimes with splendid landscapes, are ideal to be left in sight to complete with taste and color the furnishing of many houses with exclusive details. The choice is wide but it is important to pay attention to quality and authenticity, carefully evaluating the patina, the degree of wear, as well as the coherence of the style and proportions.

Dolls

Dolls are very valuable collectibles. Whether in wood, porcelain or plastic, collectible dolls are not just toys but a real passion, objects to be handled with care and jealously guarded in large collections. Among the dolls most loved by collectors certainly those dolls created to look like miniature people, adults or children. The great world of collectors is also divided between ancient dolls (i.e. those dolls made before the middle of the last century) and modern ones. Collecting dolls is a passion that could also be an excellent investment, when they do not show imperfections that would deprive them of value, whether ancient or modern, they are often sold at exorbitant prices to the delight of collectors. Among the most sought-after collectible dolls by enthusiasts certainly those signed by Petit Colin, Simon & Halbig, Armand Marseille, Lenci and Schoenau & Hoffmeister.

Music box

Music boxes have always fascinated entire generations for various factors: the curious mechanism that distinguishes them, the melodious sound that it manages to release and its enchanting power. The music box is highly appreciated as a collector's item, there are many variations of models, which can be casket and able to move characters like ballet dancers. We also move from more precious wooden or mother-of-pearl music boxes to simpler ones such as plastic ones.

Collecting music boxes can respond to various interests: those interested in this object as an ancient musical instrument will be pushed to search for ancient mechanisms and musical boxes belonging to the last century or even to the nineteenth century, while those who have a passion for the aesthetics of these objects he will devote himself to the collection of the most diverse variations in terms of shapes and colors. The prices of these fascinating objects vary according to the period of manufacture, the materials used (from wood to metal, from porcelain to plastic) and the complexity of the mechanism. They are the most particular and ancient models that have the highest prices, which can even exceed 3,000 euros.

Porcelains

A material that with its elegance pleasantly furnishes the interiors of many homes. The Chinese one is particularly sought after among collectors and fans of the genre. Its value is still current and many enthusiasts claim that Chinese porcelain will always be a quality type of porcelain. There are many collectors who go in search of oriental decorations on porcelain, especially online. Tea sets, hand-decorated plates, statuettes and precious vases are not only elements of distinction and style to be displayed in the home but for many collectors they represent objects of great value and can also reach very important prices.

The Vintage Signs porcelains are also arousing great interest among collectors and enthusiasts , in particular the famous and refined Capodimonte ceramic figurines, whose particularly valuable pieces can be worth over 10,000 euros. The LladrĂ² creations, whose finest pieces are sold at exorbitant prices, starting from 10,000 euros, are also very popular and very expensive. We cannot forget the French Limoges porcella, for an elegant and refined five o'clock tea you can exceed 2,000 euros.

Antique silver

One of the most loved by collectors of objects is undoubtedly antique silver. Antique silvers are characterized by rarity, historical value, artistic value and quality of execution as well as by the mere intrinsic value of the metals and any precious stones or enamels used as decoration.A category that never goes out of fashion and that maintains its value high over time and can therefore offer profit margins. The price varies based on various factors (type of object, type of silver, rarity, state of conservation) and starts from a few euros up to over 70,000 euros. However, to buy antique silver without risk there are some tricks. Authentic silvers, for example, almost always have the characteristic marks or punches that can testify to their authenticity; if it is missing, you have to pay attention to the shape of the object and the technique with which it was made. Equally important to be wary of brilliance, because silver is a material that tends to oxidize and therefore lose its brilliant appearance, and always take into account the weight in relation to the size of the object,
