Pewabic Archives

Pewabic's archivist is able to assist in identifying historic (or contemporary) Pewabic tile or vessels, information about Pewabic's history, Pewabic tile installations, the Pewabic building, and more.

Valuation + Appraisal

We are unable to prove any valuation or appraisal services (ie "What is my piece worth?"). If you are looking for the worth of your piece you can try DuMouchelle's for appraisals of larger items or look for price comparisons on websites like LiveAuctioneers. On LiveAuctioneers you can actually look up Pewabic in past auctions to see at what price past auction items sold.
