How much would it cost to get a ring appraisal through here? The ring was given to me by my grandfather and appears to be antique. It is in good vintage condition.

I have a large oil on canvas signed by Emma Tapping and dated 1875. The title appears to be 'Parliament House' and it is in good condition. The frame measures 25 x 23 inches, and the painting itself measures 23 x 18 inches. The back of the canvas states GEO. (George) ROWNEY, RATHBONE PLACE & LONDON. How much should I sell this painting for, considering that female artists are not as revered as male ones?

I have three straight razors, two from my late father's belongings and one from Goodwill. The first has 'Magnetic' etched on the blade, the second has 'Camillus Cutlery' at the base of the blade, and the third is from Goodwill. I'm thinking of selling them. What do you think is the best course of action?

My daughter has a painting she picked up at a yard sale. When she posted it on Facebook, she received offers three times what she was asking. We think the painting might be worth more than the top offer of $150. How do we have it appraised, and if it is worth a lot more, it would be a godsend as she is drowning in medical debt from a life or death operation she had this year?

Can I upload a picture of an art print? I have a numbered print of Disney castle by artist Souders, in pristine condition, about 20-30 years old, and numbered 81/1000. What would you like to learn about the piece? Are there any unique markings or symbols?

I have an A.R. Sudetia coffee/nut grinder made in Western Germany in the 1930s. It’s 10” long and 4 1/2” wide. What is the value and history of this grinder?
