I have about 100 items that I would like to find the value of. The items are from the late 1800s and are in good condition. One of the items is a PJ Mene bronze sculpture. How do I proceed with appraising these items, and can you help me find auctions for them?

I have a 19th-century heavily carved walnut breakfast cabinet with figural surmounts, individual beveled glass insets, and an acanthus-carved top, originally from Venice. I am moving overseas and considering whether to take these pieces with me. The pieces were appraised 15 years ago. Can you provide an appraisal based on photos of the items?

I have a collection of original sketches by Norman Kent (1903-1972), including 238 charcoal or pencil drawings and 192 ink or watercolor drawings. Some are signed or marked with Kent's initials, and others are dated or have place names. I'm trying to determine the value of these sketches as a collection or individually. What should I do?
