I have some old (1930s) ?liquor glasses, wondered if anyone knew where I could get them valued or knew any websites I could look at to see if I can see some similar. Thanks in advance!

Are they a set ?

Is it complete ?

Are they boxed ?

Are they a 'well regarded' name ?

Are they just glass or cut glass / crystal ?

Why do you think they may be 1930's ?

Is there any provenance with them - receipts etc to help you date them ?

All those could make a difference to their price.

You could check Ebay to look for similar or maybe take 'em round a few auction houses / antique shops local to you ?

Don't go for the first offer though - have a good look round.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

There are lots of places in London. Get more than one valuation though.

There are 5 but originally 6. Unboxed. To me they look like eggcups lol. Nan wants them priced, she said her mum had them since before she was born and she's 78 now so might be earlier than 1930s. She also says that it's 9 carat gold on them. There are no names or anything that gimme any clues to their origin! Do local antique places charge to price them?

Do you like them ?

If so keep them use them and enjoy them. You will probably be disappointed by a valuation. Even if they are a design classic i doubt they have much monetary value, sorry

Try Alfie's Antique Market in Marylebone. It's one of the biggest & most interesting in London. Plenty of dealers there that could offer a valuation. You could also go to Portobello Road market, again plenty of dealers there.
