I have a set of 4 vases, each 14 1/4" high, with a 4" diameter mouth and a 4 5/8" base. The vases have underglaze blue decoration and overglaze gold floral designs. Can you identify the origin and estimate the value of these vases?

I have a limited edition porcelain doll named 'Coming up Roses' from the Friendship series by Marie Osmond. The doll is hand-numbered and hallmarked with Marie's signature on the back of her neck. What is the doll's worth and what additional information should the appraiser know?

I received a vintage silver brooch with a silver smith's mark on the back that I haven't been able to identify. The brooch has a round shape with filigree hearts and tear drop pieces hanging from it. The mark on the back includes an 'H' within a circle and 'SO88'. Can you help identify the mark and provide information about the brooch's origin and value?

I have two vases I would like to know more about. The first is a blue Chinese vase with a floral design and a mark on the bottom that reads '中国制造Zhongguo zhì zao'. The second is a glass vase with a white interior and mottling, which I believe is hand-blown. Can you provide information on their origins, age, and potential value?
