What is the value of Shenandoah pottery and what is its investment potential?
In the past 35 years Shenandoah pottery has increased in value: least desirable ( to collectors ) by 45-65 %, medium desirable by 85-100%, most desirable by 200-500%. Many singular Shenandoah items go well beyond these figures. If you did not purchase your item 35 years ago the investment potential is of course below these numbers. A good reliable number for annual increased value in today’s market would be perhaps 10-12 %. However, the potential is great for more. Values have been steady and solid in almost all cases with exceptions of fake, reproduction, and broken/repaired items. It would not be practical to list values of individual items here. Suffice it to say, a range in values of all known Shenandoah pottery items would be between 5.00 and 750,000.00. Not much help, so ask an appraiser, a dealer, or seasoned collector. Obtain auction reports. We shall be listing some sales values under the Auction values window of this site.
