Can anyone provide information about an antique crystal vase and a silver teapot? The vase is heavy and beautifully made, but I know nothing about its approximate price or era. The teapot is similar to a Fenton Brothers design, but the markings are rubbed off. What are the approximate prices and eras for these items?

I want to get an appraisal on a 43-year-old Cutlass that my bank wants me to get so they can finance me for the car. The item is in mint condition. Is there anything else important the Antiques Appraiser should know?

I have a collection of mid-century modern Danish teak furniture from Baker Furniture, possibly designed by Finn Juhl and built in the 40s or 50s. The collection includes a dining room table, 8 chairs, a dining room hutch, an office desk and chair, and a living room coffee table. Additionally, there are three other pieces from the same era: a round end table by John Widdicomb, a rectangular end table by Heritage, and a living room chair with a spectacular frame but no maker's mark. The furniture is in good condition except for a broken rattan seat on one dining chair and a two-inch split in the rattan seat of another. The table has two small watermarks. How should I value this collection and who should I consult for an appraisal?
