I have a Victorian Eastlake Style Settee. It is 59"w and 42"h. It has been reupholstered but still has original springs, horsehair stuffing, and webbing underneath. Can you tell me about when it was made and the value?

Are Franklin Mint bird pictures by Albert Earl Gilbert worth anything? They are part of The National Audubon Society Sesquicentennial Collection of Bird Engravings, including a Bluejay, Cardinal, owl, and eagle. Additionally, I have two Hamilton Mint silver ingots, one 'the quail' from Thanksgiving 1974 and 'First Step on the Moon,' each weighing one troy ounce. Do these have any value?

I have two Guiseppi Bessi marble busts, 'Mignon' and 'Licia', and I need them appraised. I also want to know if they were done by Bessi or by a student, and if possible, get auction record ranges of value.

I have two items: a shelf planter about 7" tall x 6" wide with gold suspenders and an iridescent appearance, sitting by some books, with a partial label that looks like it says STANDFORD Sebring Ohio; and a beautifully hand-painted Hanukkah dreidel with gold trim, no markings, but it opens. What are the values of these items and how can I sell them close to their estimated retail value?

I have a 100-year-old cloisonne egg that was purchased in China by my great-grandfather. It is 12 inches tall and 6.5 inches in diameter at its widest point. What is its worth for selling in an antique store and for insurance purposes?
