Lord's Prayer

[Karenp]

I have a large 34+26 inch solid wood framed Lord's Prayer fretwork. I don't know too much about it and would like to sell picture. Could anyone give me advice on where to sell and what the picture would be worth? I'd appreciate it. Thank you

I've been trying to download a picture but I'm struggling. I can forward a phot by email

However, I think fashions in home decor have changed a bit since the 30s so you may find little interest in your piece.

As any auctioneer will tell you, it depends who wants it on the day and whether they have money. As Marcross said, it's only worth what someone will pay.

I understand. Thanks

I know someone who recently took one to the Antique Roadshow at Bolsover and they valued it at £100, though I don't know what the size was but would imagine it's the same size.

Thank you Scrollsaw Steve!

I bet they didn't sell it for £100 though. Unfortunately the amount of work involved tends to have little bearing on the value unless of course you are T. Emin or D. Hirst in which case people pay £millions for your signature, when the work is irrelevant.

One came through my local auction; I think it sold in the region of £20-30.

Yes I know that's an insult to skill and time to make it.

Thank you for your information and comments. It seems such a shame all the time and effort gone into this picture.
