Antique Identifier: Marks
Vintage clocks & furniture
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Point your camera at an old piece and get a read in seconds: era, origin, materials, the marks it carries, and an estimated resale range for the condition in the photo.
Antique Identifier turns your camera into a field guide for old things. Photograph a piece and get a structured read in seconds, led by an estimated resale range in US dollars.
WHAT ONE PHOTO GIVES YOU
• An estimated resale range in US dollars, for the condition visible in the photo
• What the object is, in plain words, from mantel clock to pressed-glass compote
• The era or period, and an approximate date
• The country or region it was made in
• The primary materials and the design style
• An attributed maker where the piece supports it, and the basis for it
• Every mark, stamp, backstamp or signature legible in the photo, and what it means
• An honest condition read that names the visible faults
• The diagnostic features to check next
• Original use, modern collector context, and background facts
THE RANGE COMES FIRST
Nobody photographs a lamp from a grandparent's attic to learn the word Eastlake. They photograph it to find out whether it is worth carrying to a dealer. So the value sits at the top of the result, directly under the item name, as a bounded range in US dollars for a piece like this one in this condition. Sometimes that range is wide. Sometimes it reads Varies widely. It is never a single firm figure, because a photograph cannot support one.
IT READS THE MARKS IT CAN SEE
An impressed maker mark, a pottery backstamp, a lion passant, an assay date letter, a registry diamond. The app quotes back the marks that are legible in your photo, with what they date to and what they mean, and it says None visible when there is nothing to read. It does not invent a mark, and it does not reach for a famous name to inflate a number.
IT SHOWS YOU WHAT TO CHECK NEXT
Hand-cut versus machine-cut dovetails. A pontil mark versus a ground base. Crazing consistent with age. An impressed mark versus a printed decal. Every result lists the features a collector would look at in person, so you can test the attribution yourself instead of taking a machine's word for it. Where a photo cannot settle the question, it says so.
ASK ABOUT THE PIECE YOU JUST IDENTIFIED
Premium adds Ask AI, a conversation with a specialist that stays on antiques and collectibles. What a backstamp dates to, how condition moves a range, how an original differs from a reproduction or a married piece, how to store and handle the object, and why cleaning or refinishing usually destroys value. It does not wander off topic.
YOUR SCANS, KEPT
Every identification is saved on your device with its photo, so a Sunday spent clearing a house becomes a list you can read back later. No account.
WHO IT IS FOR
• Anyone clearing an estate, an attic or a parent's house
• Thrift, flea market and garage sale hunters deciding in thirty seconds
• Resellers who need a period, a maker line and a starting range
• New collectors of pottery, porcelain, glass, silver, clocks, lamps and toys
• Anyone with a piece the family has never identified
HONEST ABOUT WHAT A PHOTO CAN DO
An identification here is a best-effort AI suggestion, not an authoritative determination. Value and dating are AI estimates from a single photograph, not a professional appraisal. Authenticity, provenance, signatures and true condition need expert examination with the object in hand. A range here is a starting point for research, not a figure to act on. For an insurance, sale, purchase, tax or legal decision, consult a certified appraiser or an auction house.
Identification and Ask AI need an internet connection. Identifications you have already saved stay on your device and open without one.
The app interface and the results are available in 33 languages.
PREMIUM
Free includes 2 identifications per day. Premium lifts the daily limit and unlocks Ask AI. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and you can manage or cancel yours in your App Store account settings at any time.
