kovels: making antique research easy for over 50 years

Ralph and Terry Kovel have been known as experts in antiques and collectibles since their first book was published in 1953.  While decorating their first apartment, the pair began their affair with collectibles and antiques by trying to decipher marks on their beloved vintage porcelain pieces purchased from house sales for their new home.  And now with over 100 books, special reports, and the country’s longest running syndicated newspaper column discussing topics ranging from identification and care to trends and pricing, the couple is revered as one of the nation’s leading experts in antiques and collectibles (About the Kovels, 2015).  Following Ralph’s passing in 2008, Terry, her children, and her staff continued building the legacy her and Ralph grew together (About Kovels Antiques, Inc, 2015).

And this legacy even extends beyond their impressive library of print publications.  People can have access to their expertise and knowledge without even purchasing a book or newspaper.  They can learn about antiques and collectibles by visiting their website at Kovels.com.  It is a leading resource for antique collectors and dealers alike.  It provides news, resources, tips and tricks, a price guide, forums to talk with others interested in collectibles, and more.  They even publish their top 20 searches every month, allowing visitors to see what is trending in antiques and collectibles to help you stay current on what’s new with everything old.
