It is always difficult to try and place a value on paintings because the descriptions are always confusing and most people do not understand that you can only compare their painting with other paintings with the same EXACT description that is on the COA of their painting.
Your painting has this description on the COA:
Edition has been limited to 2850 impressions on premier grade paper.
Thomas Kinkade LILAC GAZEBO 0/2850 S/N Paper 16" x 12".
No other description will be the same as yours - not a lithograph or canvas, etc.

Thomas Kinkade LILAC GAZEBO 0/2850 S/N Paper 16" x 12"

The third in my series of paintings in honor of my daughter Winsor, Lilac Gazebo.

As a general rule, the designation of S/N is the least expensive of the editions (excluding small sizes, prints, etc.).
This is a description of your painting on the Kinkade website:
However, this edition is not available, so there is no price.
You may have to check off the squares to find your exact painting.
Check: S/N and size listed as not available.
thomaskinkade.com/.../

You can contact their website for value information, but they will only provide names/numbers of local shops for you to check with.
thomaskinkade.com/.../

This listing shows 2 paintings that are of the same edition as yours and the seller is asking $225 for both paintings, which would indicate that one painting would probably be listed at $125.

This is probably a good price for your painting.
www.ebay.co.uk/.../383701775160

This gallery has set its price at $210:
Galleries may be more trustworthy (to the public) when they're looking for a painting.
christcenteredmall.com/.../lilac-gazebo.htm

If you decide to list your painting for sale, you should always start at a higher price, with best offers considered, and leave it listed for several weeks.
If no offers are received, lower the price and wait again.

Stonehearth Hutch is the fourth painting in Thomas Kinkade's very popular Christmas Cottage series.
You do not provide enough information about your painting for anyone to know for sure exactly what you have.

It appears to be a lithograph that was made in one size and your frame was probably hand picked but without stating this, how do we know for sure?

I only found one similar lithograph and the painting was not sold but was removed by the seller. The asking price was $575. I believe this may be too high a price for this painting.
www.ebay.com/.../283549802693

Here is a list of retail prices for this painting:
The first item shows the lithograph at $188 (free shipping) but does not mention a frame.
All of the other prices shown are for different levels of canvas paintings. These are all authentic Thomas Kinkade paintings with COA - hand signed.
These are paintings offered from a 'gallery' where people will normally pay a higher price than from a 'regular' seller.
www.christcenteredmall.com/.../stonehearth_hutch.htm

Advertisement

If you decide to list your painting for sale I would suggest starting at a higher price - $300 - with all offers considered and offer free local pickup or shipping. If no offers after several weeks then reduce the price and wait again.
Personally, I would value the painting at about $100-$150 but it may take a year to sell.
Shipping really needs to be done by a professional service, especially if there is glass involved. Shipping will be expensive.

Sites to list your painting;
Facebook Marketplace, Etsy, Poshmark, etc
Be sure to have all information correct and several good pictures.

Hopefully you will have very good luck with your sale.

Thomas Kinkade was a world renowned American painter. His works were widely distributed during his lifetime in the form of printed reproductions and other licensed products via the Thomas Kinkade Company. This company produced a huge number of printed versions of his paintings of various types: prints / lithographs on paper / canvas and other. www.worthpoint.com/.../thomas-kinkade-stonehearth-hutch...

Kinkade is also one of the most counterfeited artists.

You have Thomas Kinkade "Stonehearth Hutch" framed and matted print on paper under glass. Stonehearth Hutch is from Thomas Kinkade's Christmas Cottage Collection.
Thomas Kinkade Company made limited edition prints with the Thomas Kinkade's signature, sometimes with number in the lower right corner. Judy found the Signed and Numbered Limited Edition Lithograph on Paper (#183, there were 1650 lithographs in this edition) with the price $ 575 www.ebay.com/.../283549802693. I think this price is too high. Usually such art is sold with Certificate of Limitation & Authenticity, like this Thomas Kinkade Stonehearth Hutch from the same edition (#190/1650) www.worthpoint.com/.../thomas-kinkade-painting-stonehearth...

Your Thomas Kinkade Stonehearth Hutch is not signed and there is no number. I don't think your picture can be sold for a high price. Here's Thomas Kinkade Stoneheart Hutch Gold Colored Frame 20x16 with the price $ 61.99 www.walmart.com/.../42408302?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId...
Here Stonehearth Hutch by Thomas Kinkade in 7x9 with the price $ 22 www.ebay.com/.../402590335892?_ul=IL
Here Thomas Kinkade framed "Stonehearth Hutch" and 2 prints, coffee cup, books and house were auctioned for only $ 19 (all together)

I have found one that is the same size as yours but in a different frame listed on eBay and the seller is asking $2500 for the canvas. On this site they tell you a lot of details about the print and explain to you the average price, high and low prices. It appears the average price for this print is $849, the low is $175, and the high is $3000. Here is a link to the site so you can learn more about how you can determine the price of your print if you want to sell it. picclick.com/Thomas-Kinkade-Beginning-of-a-Perfect...

There are just too many variables with the Thomas Kinkade paintings to even try to sort them out and find an exact match to your painting.
Every letter/number means something and completely changes the value as well as the popularity of the painting.
You might find the same size but not the same edition and the value will be miles apart.

Most of the same name paintings on eBay (and other sites) is the S/N edition and there were 3950 of this type made - S/N stands for 'Standard Edition' and is generally considered of less value than your G/P.
Your painting is 378/1400 GP (Gallery Proof) so that means there were less paintings made and this generally increases the value.

The following is a link to an 'appraisal' made in 2012 and has no real value to you except if you read the comments you will see how complicated this identifying can be.

There are several similar paintings presently listed for sale on eBay and if you check some of them you'll see the differences but many seller do not really know how to describe their listings.

I would suggest you start with a free online appraisal so you will at least have a beginning point.
You will need several pictures of all numbers and markings as well as any paperwork you may have. Your location will also help.

There are several variables that will influence the current value but I see that even canvas (more valuable than print) 20 x 20 was only $135 (although they are sold out right now) so I would think your print (unframed) would be less than $100 plus a few dollars for the frame.

If this is for insurance claim you will need all the information about the print and perhaps prove its value. According to what type of insurance you have you may be able to claim what you paid if you have any record (credit card/bank records) of the purchase (if you have replacement value insurance).

If you just have regular coverage then you will probably only be able to claim the current value.
You can check eBay's sold listings for one like you had and if found, you can claim that as current value.
Be sure to check by size and print (not canvas) but you can check other auction sites (and Google) for your print and on eBay you can place a watch on any print to see if it sells.

The prints are not as valuable as the oil painting. If you owned an oil painting they are currently selling for around $2000. The price of the print will be determined by the size of the print. Smaller prints are selling for less than the larger ones. It will also depend on if you had this framed or not. I would say you are looking at around $100 to $150 for the print you have lost.

Prices for this piece as described seem to be all over the map -- from $20 to >$1000 USD. I don't see them selling on the higher end, and imagine sellers are wishing against hope to recoup some of their original investment. Prices got a little boost when the artist died about 10 years ago, but he flooded the commercial market with these works on many media -- ultimately rendering them much less valuable. Others might be able to advise differently, but if ultimately you find that the estimate is outweighed by the hassle of listing and shipping, you might consider donating it to a community space such as a senior center.

It is very difficult to provide a value on these paintings as there are so many different variations that most of the time people are trying to compare similar to the old saying "like comparing apple & oranges".
Everything has to be exactly the same as your painting and you may not find even one exact match listed for sale and may never find a match that has sold, and only a sold listing will provide an estimate of value (on the date it was sold).
Many people (even appraisers) check eBay for sold listings and as of this date, I did not find anything even similar to your painting that sold in the past several months.
Checking sold listings you will find 4 paintings that are listed at over $1,000 but this was a scam and actually, none were sold and eBay has removed the 'paintings' and the seller.
www.ebay.com/.../i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=thomas...

There were 5 versions of Hometown Memories and each one can be seen in different sizes and materials.
Of course, most of the high-priced paintings will be on canvas and usually will be signed.
I do not believe your painting came from the Thomas Kincade gallery as their frames usually have a plaque showing the name of the painting. The COA is also the style that comes from an art gallery. You may notice there are numerous types of COA's and I feel sure that each one has a different meaning as to level/value when looking at these paintings.
Art galleries may purchase a large number of reproductions and then sell to the public and generally have a large selection of available frames to choose from.
If you are thinking of selling you may just list your painting at a higher value, plus shipping and consider offering to review best
offers.
Paintings are slow sellers but if you do not receive any offers then you may have to lower the price and wait again.

I found some prints selling on eBay that are 16x20 and the average asking price for the prints is $350. The larger one like you have the average asking price for the print is $450. You can also see some of the other Paris City of Lights being sold for over $1000 but these are not prints they are canvas. That increases the value of the item. Framed ones seem to be asking a higher price for the prints than if they are not framed. I am not finding ones sold so I can only quote you what people are hoping to sell the prints for online.

It is almost impossible for anyone other than a qualified appraiser to give you a current value on this painting as there are too many that are 'just a little' different and that could change the value completely.

I do not see a size (unless I missed it) and it appears this is a print on canvas and not just a 'print' so that makes a very big difference.
Your painting is also in the 'Classic Reproduction' field and that also seems to make a difference.
So you can see it would not be possible for me to find an exact sold painting and that is the only way we can quote a maybe value.

Perhaps you can review this listing to see if it might match your painting - remember - everything has to be the same.
This listing is for sale on eBay and if it matches your painting you could place a watch on it to see if it sells.

www.ebay.com/.../283644572575?hash=item420a88b39f...

There was only one similar painting sold on eBay (over the past several months) and that was for a Paris City of Lights II.

You might want to ask for a free online appraisal since an 'in person' appraisal could be costly.
If you check these you will see that you have to provide pictures and a very detailed description - other than the certificate.

These are so complicated to value because there are a bazillion versions of the same print, each with a different frame, different number series, with COA, without COA, with signature, without signature, and each in different conditions (that yours is not out of the box is a good thing and will add a little value to your sale). You will almost never find one from your exact series and exact match to every criterion to give you an exact value of what someone paid for your item (value is what someone pays, not what a seller wants).

Trying to value someone on a similar is not a good thing in these items because some are more or less avaluable and if you find a similar that is a high value and yours is a low value you will be disappointed when you don't fetch that much. The flip side is is yours is more value than the similar, someone will get a great bargain.

What I suggest to anyone that is trying to sell any TK is to take it to a reputable consignment store or resale shop or if you have them in your town, an auction company who takes the Kinkade's (where I am most places won't touch them because there are so many and so many variables that they won't even try to sell them, but every town is different) and get them to give you an asking price and what percentage they would take for the sale.

Get several bids if you can and let the place that gives the best percent of sale the business.

If you are lucky, you may find a place that will buy it outright and then you can get the cash in hand. That will be your value in today's market.

I would not even bother trying to sell it on eBay or online because shipping is a disaster waiting to happen. The number of things broken these days in transit is frustrating.

Post back what you decide and the value you get when sold!
