Introduction. Glass products reflect all directions of the historical development of art, technology and culture of mankind as a whole, therefore there is a need for their expert evaluation.
Problem. Necessity of art and decorative and utilitarian glass products value forecasting in expert tasks on commodity valuation and damage assessment as a result of their loss.
Methods. To forecast the value of modern and antique artistic and decorative and useful glass products, the method which involves the study of pricing patterns on the market in two independent areas is proposed. The first is the market of modern (new) products, which are put up for open sale at prices determined by the seller. The second is the market of antique glass products, which have gained recognition now as symbols of the cultural and artistic traditions of the past.
Results. Taking into account the fact that there are two independent markets for artistic and decorative glass products – the market for modern products and the market for antique products – two input databases were developed for the commodity evaluation of these products.
It has been established that the value indicators of antique glass, in general, exceed the value indicators of modern glass. This regularity is especially well visible on expensive objects that are sold at auctions and, in the vast majority, are works of art or made at world-renowned manufactories. The presence of additional positive information about well-known factories and craftsmen leads to increase in the attention of potential buyers to glass products and increase in value indicators.
As a result of logarithmization, three distinct trends (intervals) of glass products value indicators formation on the Ukraine market were established. The expediency of quantitative accountting of positive information about glass products according to the ten criteria presented in the protocol for the evaluation of cultural monu-ments has been confirmed.
Conclusions. Predicted value indicators are theoretically based, renewable and can be veryfied relatively to the goal set by the appraiser. The algorithm for calculating the projected value indicators of modern and antique glass products should be used to determine the level of financial losses incurred by the owner or the national culture as a whole because of the destruction of the relevant items.
