The Mid Century Modern market has exploded. What was once a niche appeal has now become a mainstream trend. Prices have soared to unrealistic heights, as more sellers jumped on the bandwagon. I have decided to take a different path and restore some balance in a market that has lost touch with its roots. My commitment to selling quality mid-century pieces persists, but I have chosen to price my items more realistically. I want to give my buyers something special, that oozes character and individuality, and remain dedicated to preserving the authenticity of vintage and antique furniture
As a vintage furniture dealer, I have lost count of the number of times a potential client has turned down my offer for their item, only to come back a few weeks later having changed their mind. They look online, hoping to achieve the high prices of large established dealers. When they try and have no success, they often come back to my original price.
So why is mid-century furniture priced so high online? And why do prices vary so much across sites?
