In this new edition of the most functional furniture price guide, author Kyle Husfloen covers all major styles of American and European furniture from the 17th century through the mid-20th century. You'll discover extensive pricing for bedroom suites, beds, benches, chests and chest of drawers, cradles, sofas, settees, wardrobes and armoires, as well as an illustrated guide to American furniture terms.
I am the former senior editor for antiques and collectibles books with Krause Publications in Iola, Wis. I conduct community events that involve appraisal of antiques, collectibles and decorative arts in the upper Midwest.
Since launching my Antique Appraisal Events in the summer of 2011, the response has been very gratifying. Libraries and historical societies from around the Midwest have embraced the concept and scheduled events, and institutions in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota and Upper Michigan have also expressed interest.
I have been a contributing editor for Antique Trader magazine. I also served as editor of Antique Review East magazine; as producer of Atlantique City, an antique show held twice a year at the Atlantic City, N.J., Convention Center; and as editorial director of F+W Publications' Antiques Group.
I am the author or co-author of more than 25 books on antiques and collectibles, including the 800-page annual Warman's Antiques & Collectibles Price Guide 2012, the 45th edition.
The 45th edition of Warman's Antiques & Collectibles Price Guide is better than ever, and brings a fresh, 21st-century perspective to the collecting world.
The list of auction houses features more than 70 businesses from coast to coast, covering hundreds of collecting categories. The number of consulting experts in various fields has also grown, and I've included new sections on both established and emerging collecting areas.
An important returning feature is a focus on the "Future of the Markets," advising collectors on where the experts are putting their money and why.
