Standard agentive noun formation from the verb 'appreciate' with a directly predictable meaning: 'a person who appreciates.'
Etymology
Appreciator comes from appreciate, which goes back to the Latin root pretium meaning 'price' and is like the English word price. So an appreciator is someone who can 'see the value' of something, which is why the word means a person who recognizes and values quality.
