I have an 8-piece set of matching English pottery, including a water pitcher, basin, 2 chamber pots, a smaller vase, and a bowl with a lid. All pieces have the same green markings on the bottom and are numbered. The set is in fairly good condition with no chips or breaks. The design features a white base with a green crest and orange and lighter green vines. What is the resale value of this set?

I have a chair that was my grandfather's and I would like to know if it is worth anything. The chair appears to be solid wood carved, with perfect carving but some discoloration at the base of the feet. I think it might be French or German. The chair is at least 75 years old, possibly closer to 100, and has been in the family for a long time.

I have a pair of vintage Chinese Blue and White Porcelain Hexagonal lidded Ginger Jars that were purchased as antiques from India, China, Japan, and Thailand in late 1955. One of the jars has damage on the top rim and lid. I have the old sea crate inventory invoice but no photos of the bottoms. What is the estimated value of these jars, and can you confirm their age if I provide photos of the bottom?
