Ica Icarette (6x6)

The Ica Icarette (6x6) is a German folding roll-film camera made by Ica AG of Dresden, producing 6x6 cm negatives. It dates from the era before Ica merged into Zeiss Ikon in 1926, placing it among the compact folding bed cameras of the early 20th century.

Auction evidence for this specific 6x6 Icarette variant is extremely thin: a single UK hammer result from 2003 sits at £100, so any current 2026 value range would be speculative. At saleroom level, comparable pre-Zeiss Ikon Ica folders typically trade on condition of the bellows, shutter and lens rather than on the nameplate alone, and that one data point should be treated as indicative only of where a complete, working example once sold.
