I have a Geppeddo doll that is African American holding a baby buggy with a bear inside. It has the Geppeddo marking on the back of her neck. The head, hands, and legs are porcelain. Is this doll worth anything, and what should I know about its value?

I have a mahogany chest of drawers and matching bureau made by Dauler Close and Johns in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The set is in excellent condition but some hardware is missing. I have had it for approximately 40 years and was told it was 70 years old when I purchased it. Can you provide an estimate of its worth and advice on how to replace the hardware?

I have a doll made in Germany with markings on the head, a large wooden body, and porcelain face. The face was broken 60 years ago and I want to find someone to restore it.

I inherited an oil painting portrait from my mother, who inherited it from her grandmother, born in 1900 and an antique dealer all her life. This painting hung in her living room for many years. I have looked online for similar paintings and wonder if this could have been painted by Ammi Phillips. Is there someone who can help me?

I have a ceramic boot with a ship painted on it, 7 and a quarter inches tall, and the ship is only on one side. I initially thought it was a planter, but now I believe it might be a mug or Stein. I would like to know what this is, who made it, how old it is, and what its value is.

I have a chair with a needlepoint seat that I believe is a later redo. What would the original seat have been? Additionally, I would like to know the age, country, style, and value of the chair. I also have a wood box, a 24" copper tray with Middle Eastern etching, and two small stools/benches that I would like appraised.
