3. Ornaments
Almost every grandmother has a box of those hand-blown antique glass ornaments. Sadly, they are thrown away by many people, or they are donated to a thrift store. They can chip or crack easily, too. This is precisely why individual collectors covet a well-preserved antique ornament. They will have to pay a pretty penny if they want the old-fashioned look without purchasing the recreations you can find in the craft shop. Your best choice is to search your set of older ornaments and check out the listings on eBay and Etsy.
Kugel is one of the most valuable brands of antique ornaments. If you look at Etsy, you’ll see that there is only one bulb in Kugel that sells for $40 to $60. And if you find an ornament that’s rare and exclusive, it might be worth a few hundred bucks. Now imagine that there was a whole box of these valuable antique items in your attic.
