Hello there. My grandparents gave an old stove to my mother 30 years ago. She is downsizing her belongings and wants to sell it.
(I would love to take it but have no place for it)
I just want her to get a fair price, I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who may know what it’s worth.
Adding photos.
Rathbone Sard Acorn stove value?

These don't sell very well these days, I tend to see the smaller and the more ornate tend to get more $ than the larger or less ornate. Its worth going through this book http://books.google.com/books/about/Acorn_stoves_ ... 9BAAAAYAAJ (credit to our ole' friend lsayer for finding this lil' gem) you may be able to find your stove. It appears to me to be missing some type of shelves on either side (they typically had more surface that just burners either on the sides or shelving on back).
I like Fred's estimate at $200 - $300 (definitely not over the $500 threshold)
hope that helps! best of luck!
