Miller's Antiques Handbook & Price Guide 2014-2015

Miller's Antiques Handbook & Price Guide remains the essential and trusted guide to the antiques market. It has earned the reputation of being the book no dealer, collector or auctioneer should be without.

It is compiled by Judith Miller, world-renowned antiques expert and co-founder of the book, who selects the guide's 8000-plus featured antiques.

The images in the guide are changed for every edition to keep the book up to date with collecting and buying trends. The antiques are shown in full colour with detailed descriptions and a current price range. Special 'Judith Picks' sections give fascinating background and valuation details for particularly interesting or unusual objects.

Special features explain why one piece is worth more than another, show how to value an item and teach you to be your own valuer. Biographies of designers and factories give the background information you need to help date and value objects.
