John Swahn Announces Official Release of New Book: The Truth About Antiques
BRYN MAWR, PA — October 1, 2026 — Veteran antiques expert and restorer John Swahn has officially released his highly anticipated new book, The Truth About Antiques, available now via Amazon.
Drawing on more than three decades of hands-on experience and work with over 6,000 clients, Swahn’s new book pulls back the curtain on the art and science of evaluating historical objects. Rather than relying on external stories, reference books, or specialized tools, The Truth About Antiques teaches readers a practical, forensic methodology. It trains collectors, dealers, and buyers how to read the physical evidence left behind by craftsmen in the wood, joints, hardware, and finishes of genuine pieces.
"After thirty-four years and thousands of clients, I wanted to pass on a way of seeing that lets people look beneath the surface and trust what the object itself is telling them," says Swahn.
