Antique Cookie Jar

Ancient cookie jars are worth a lot of money in this day and age. We are not only talking about those made a few decades ago. We are talking about those that came from the ‘40s and ‘50s. If you do not believe us, we trust Reyne Hirsch to confirm it for you. She works as an Antiques Roadshow evaluator for PBS. According to Uncle Mistletoe Marshall Fields, she says that in 2018, one from the ‘50s sold for $1,200. However, it is not the only one to go for a lot of money. Her people said that a cookie jar would go for more if it was in the style of a famous cartoon character. On August 25, 2019, a cookie jar with a Little Audrey theme went for $3,400 on eBay.

Vintage Perfume Bottles

It looks like it does not matter what is on the inside this time around. As of the 19th century, perfume bottles were transformed into art by glassblowers from different parts of the world. If you have one of these things, you might be in for a lot of money. We are not kidding when we say that these can sell for wads of cash. In August 2019, perfume flasks that date back to the 1900s have gone for nearly $4,000 on eBay. If you have bottles that are centuries old, you might even have $8,500 waiting for you. Eric Silver, an antique roadshow evaluator, has said that there are also auctions exclusively for perfume bottles where you can sell your perfume bottles.
