Artnet, long known for its fine art price and image auction database has recently added an image based Decorative Art Price Database. The field is starting to get crowded with p4a, Artfact, and free database such as LiveAuctioneers and searchable sites at Sotheby's and Christies. I just visited the website, and it is saying coming soon, but I would think it should be operational shortly.

The email content sent from Artnet is:

artnet’s Decorative Art Price Database is a color–illustrated database of antiques from Gothic through Art Nouveau. The database includes auction records for furniture, silver, ceramics, porcelain, glass, clocks and rugs from international auction houses from 2002 to the present.

artnet’s new user–friendly search screen enables you to:

• Search by specific time period and collecting category;
• Search by specific object type;
