I bought a Baldwin Upright piano that was built in 1910. It has a brass plate above the bass strings with 'Baldwin Trade Mark' and a letter D cast into it, and the number 15788 stamped on the wood surface above the bass keys. What is the age of the piano and its estimated value?

I have a hand-knotted rug, possibly Persian, that I would like to have appraised and potentially sell. The rug is 57x40 inches with ramshorn edging and has tribal prints and symbols including '252' around the edges and a '3' on the tape. I would like to know the market value, the best places to sell it, and if there are any specific meanings behind the symbols and designs on the rug.

I believe the signature on a large oil countryside painting says Lambert. The frame is very large, thick, and ornate. What is the value of the painting and the frame?

I inherited a dining room set from my mother, who purchased it around 1974 when it was already 75 years old. The set includes a china cabinet, a buffet/sideboard, and a dining table. The china cabinet has numbers 24, 3605, 100, BB on the back, and the buffet has a Peck & Hills label and a Batesville Cabinet Company Hillenbrand Industries Master-Made Furniture stamp. The pieces are hand-carved with floral scroll work. I would like to know the age, type/period, and value of the pieces for insurance purposes.
