    Default Where to go to find the value/history of a vintage purse?

    I purchased a beautiful little hand-made, beaded "coin purse" that was Made In France. Does anyone know where I can go to find out if it is worth anything or maybe the history of it? I'll post pics here, too.
    Thanks for your help!

    Here are the pictures. It's only missing a few beads on the back. Otherwise it's in great shape!

    that's a really good question.

    I would say Antique's Road Show () or you can try a local antique shop and she if they know.

    Thanks. I'll look it up and see if I can send them pics of the purse.

    Well, here's what I found out from their FAQs:

    "Can ANTIQUES ROADSHOW provide information about or an appraisal of my object(s) via e-mail, mail, or phone?
    ANTIQUES ROADSHOW only provides free verbal evaluations at our events. We do not provide appraisals or information on objects via e-mail, mail, or phone.
    How can I get an appraisal of my objects?
    ANTIQUES ROADSHOW only provides verbal evaluations in person at our events. If you are looking for an appraiser in your area, we have some suggestions to help you on your search.
    How can I buy or sell an object?
    We cannot give specific advice on the buying and selling of objects. The best general advice we can give is to explore all your options. Dealers, auctioneers, online and even yard sales are all potential ways of selling or acquiring objects. All methods involve costs to sell; some involve costs to buy. Investigate costs, the type of objects being bought and sold and through research, make the choice that best suits your situation."


    So, now it's off to my local Yellow Pages to see if there's a place here I can take it to for appraisal.

    I can just picture you in line to see if the pouch is worth anything and then all of us at home waiting and watching glued to the TV
