I'm trying to sell these and I don't know how to price them... I want to sell them at a fair price instead of just guessing.


Thank you for helping!!!!!
 
Hi,

I suggest you search eBay, follow some like auctions, see what they actually sell for and let that guide you. I doubt if anyone on this forum knows anything about mother-of-pearl boxes - though I could be wrong. But this is what is recommended even for people wanting to sell pearls.

Beautiful boxes! You are very talented.

You would help us greatly by providing some additional details. Size and dimensions of each piece is a good start.

What species of shells do you work with? Are these based upon traditional designs? If so, please elaborate on your cultural background (ie) folklore and culture.

Perhaps a small description on how you choose subject matter, harvest shells and the time it takes to make each piece.

Again, these are remarkable pieces and I thank you for sharing them with us.
 
Mother of pearl is a stretch on this forum, but I must say it is a very beautiful box! We usually recommend eBay for one time sellers and Karin gave you good advice. If you list it, come back and give us the url in this thread, so we can go look. It is extraordinary to someone like me who has only seen much less decorative MoP boxes.....
