I have a set of antique low back rod reinforced Windsor chairs that were from an old police station renovated in the 1950s. The chairs have reinforcement rods in the arms, legs, and seat, and the seat is two pieces with two rods through the center. The finish is cracked, and green paint can be seen under a brown finish. What is the age and value of these chairs, and how can I sell them close to their estimated retail value?

I have a small rectangular plate labeled Ridgeways, GORDON Rd No. 30871, Stoke on Trent, Rd No. 688. It is transferware with a pattern mostly brown and white, featuring four little medallions on the rim with polychrome pictures of a sailboat and a pastoral river view. The size is 4.5" x 6.5". What can you tell me about it?

We found a No. 20 1888 Sylvan Garland - Michigan Stove Co wood-burning cooking stove in fair condition that needs cleaning. It has a decorative ornament on top and a base with a gold bar and the name Sylvan Garland. The base is not connected to it, and there is an area on the base that looks like it was welded. How can I sell it and what is it worth?

I have a Theo Haviland Limoges Soup Tureen--Set Parabere that the movers broke. The pattern had mauve and blue flowers. Not sure of the value and cannot find one in a photo just like mine. I need to have an appraisal of what it is worth.
