I have a very ornate, quite large antique pump organ. It has a mirror on the top piece, gas lamp holders on either side, a hymn book stand that lifts up to reveal music storage space, and an accompanying 3-legged stool. It has been refinished and still plays, although it has the original bellows. It has been in my family for over 50 years and is Victorian and extremely ornate. I also have a dining room table, circular, 72" across with a pedestal stand, plus a matching Hutch with a mirror. Both are refinished in oak and over 100 years old. They were built by hand by my great grandfather for my grandmother and are in the Arts and Crafts design. I bought 4 chairs for it that are exact matches to the wood and style. What should I expect to be able to sell the pump organ for, and what is the value of the dining room set for insurance purposes?

I need an expert art appraiser for an Anton Doll painting titled 'The Skater' that is 30 1/2 by 40 1/2 inches and was painted over 100 years ago. I live in Spring Hill, FL and need the appraisal for insurance purposes. I require someone to come to my house for the appraisal.

I was just given a christening dress and black leather shoes with buttons that were my grandfather's, about 95 years old. I'm wondering about their value and if I should have the dress dry cleaned and the leather shoes polished.
