I have a few 9" plates with a dragon and a phoenix, and a mark I do not recognize. Can you help me identify and date the mark, and provide an estimate of one plate's value?

The plates are likely vintage Chinese famille rose porcelain from the late Republic era, circa 1950....

Who can I send a picture of an antique for identification purposes? I'm not sure what it is, but it's very old and in good condition. The items possibly come from the 1800s, South Texas, and Mexico. My great grandfather was a traveling musician who played at ranch gatherings. What are these items and what could they be related to?

I have an original Hans Figura silk etching pencil signed by the artist, believed to be from around 1950. The etching is in a frame with some wear on the paper backing, but the etching itself is in great condition. I am unsure of the European city depicted in the etching. What is the value of the etching, and where is the best place to sell it?

I have an antique oak rocker with tufted upholstery in the back, flat upholstery on the seat, wide oak arms, and wide rockers. I have photos but don't know how to attach them. What is the fair market value of this late 19th-century rocker, and how can I sell it?

What is the possible value of a seven-volume 'Gazetteer of the World' by Blackie, published in the late 1800s, with the volumes in good condition except for dust and worn marks on the cover and spine, and how does the potential first edition status affect the value?
