Used art prints in Jodhpur typically sell for ₹1,300 to ₹15,500 (about $13 to $160). The whole value of a print is in what kind of print it is, and the most damaging mistake a seller can make is describing a reproduction in words that imply an original.
Selling art prints in Jodhpur
Jodhpur sits on the edge of the desert and has a long-established trade in furniture, textiles and handicrafts, much of it made for export. Genuinely distinctive wooden and decorative pieces appear here far more often than elsewhere.
The export furniture trade means well-made wooden pieces circulate locally in a way they do not in most cities. Desert heat and dust are the two things to ask about for anything stored.
The old city inside the walls is narrow and difficult for vehicles, so anything large is collected from outside. The newer areas are open and easy to drive.
Jodhpur, in Rajasthan, has around 1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Jaipur, Kota and Bikaner are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Jodhpur
Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.
What art prints are worth
What lifts the price
- Signed and numbered limited editions
- Original gallery labels and certificates
What pulls it down
- Sun fading, which is irreversible
- Foxing and damp staining on paper
Working out what yours is worth
- Look for a pencil signature and edition number in the margin
- Photograph any gallery label on the reverse
Getting it ready
- Look at the print under magnification. Regular dot patterns mean a mechanical reproduction; continuous ink or plate texture suggests an original process.
- Check for a pencil signature and an edition number in the margin, and note whether the signature is in the plate rather than added by hand.
Photograph
- The whole print flat and square on, entire sheet including margins
- The reverse, plus any foxing, tape, tear or trimmed edge
Put in the description
- Artist and title, and the year if known
- Whether the signature is hand-applied in pencil or printed in the plate
Artist, title, process and edition: “Signed Lithograph, [Artist], Edition 24/150, 1978”. Say screenprint, lithograph, etching or giclée reproduction — the process is most of the value. Never use the word original for something printed in an edition of thousands.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
