Protecting the Value of Your Figurine

by Earl Beal

Do you know the value of your figurine? When asked this question most people immediately start thinking in terms of dollars and cents. But in truth that is the last thing you should think about.

The true value of your figurine can only be measured in terms of how much you care for it. As a result, the more you care for it the more value it could have.

But regardless of how you determine your figurine's value, below are some guidelines that will not only protect its value but could increase it as well.

. Keep it clean. In most cases just simple dusting is all that is required. When washing is necessary I suggest using tepid water and a mild soap or detergent (such as baby shampoo). Use a soft cloth to wash the figurine and a soft brush or Q-Tip to get into small nooks and crevices. To avoid crazing, never allow water to get inside of your figurine. Rinse the figurine using a soft cloth that's been dipped in warm clear water. Allow the figurine to air dry.

. Display it with caution. Never expose your figurine to direct sunlight. The sun's rays can cause discoloration as well as distortion and deterioration.

. Make sure its display foundation is secured. Never place your figurine near the edge of the display area. Secure your figurine using some museum wax, available at most craft or home improvement stores. This inexpensive product will keep your figurine from toppling over during earthquakes or accidental bumps.

. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperature changes. Also avoid putting your figurine in areas with high moisture levels or rapid temperature changes.

. Keep its original box. The original will not only provide for safe storage but could add value should you decide to sell your figurine.

Following these simple tips does not only make sense. But one day they could convert to substantial dollars and cents.
