WorthPoint Corporation has announced the addition of Lynda Kolski and Dolores Elliott to its team of Worthologists -- men and women with expertise in and a passion for collecting art, antiques and collectibles.

Kolski, of Wilmington, Delaware, has been in the antiques business since the early 1980s and began specializing in antique linens and textiles in the mid-1990s. Kolski exhibits and sells at antique shows from Maine to Florida. A marketing communications writer and consultant by profession, she has also written articles for Antique Trader and Antique News.

"The workmanship of early linens and textiles is truly a dying art," Kolski says. "Antique and vintage needlework often exhibit some of the most exquisite and detailed stitching and handwork one can imagine. The time and work put into these pieces is extraordinary and rarely done anymore. It is truly an art form."

Elliott, of Johnson City, New York, is an expert in historic Northeast American Indian items. Her book, Flights of Fancy: An Introduction to Iroquois Beadwork, is used as a reference at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C. She has also contributed articles to the Bead Society of Great Britain, The Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers and the DeWitt Historical Society.

For the past 32 years, Elliott has been the director of the Otsiningo American Indian Program in New York State. Her Indian festivals, pow wows, lectures, and workshops on Indian topics are well known. She is a member of several archeological and bead societies.

"We now have more than 40 Worthologists and are expecting over 100 by the end of the year," says WorthPoint Founder and CEO Will Seippel. "Worthologists like Lynda Kolski and Dolores Elliott, both nationally-known experts in their fields, are key to building our online community of like-minded collectors, sellers and dealers.

"We are receiving an increasing number of inquiries from people who want to become Worthologists," Seippel says. "We thoroughly check each applicant's background and qualifications and require each to abide by a strict conflict-of-interest code. We are committed to creating a safe online site where collectors can share their passion for collecting and find unbiased expert advice on the items they want to buy or sell."
