I have an antique French buffet that is in bad shape. It has lead glass in the doors on the bottom and carved wood on the top. I'm trying to figure out if it is worth it to restore. From what I read, it is probably Henry XVI. Should I restore it, and what should I consider before making a decision?

I have a dining room set from 1945, made by Berkey & Gay, consisting of a dining table with two extensions, a host chair, five side chairs, a buffet, and a china cabinet, all made of pecan wood with pecan root inlay. I need to sell this set quickly due to moving to a retirement home with no space for the furniture. How do I set a price and sell it effectively?

I have an old oil painting by Peckham, depicting Admiral Nelson, with an original, very old stretcher and frame. The painting was appraised in 1981 and was thought to be a reproduction due to the signature appearing wrong. The signature is slightly raised above the surface and the painting is in good condition but needs restretching in one area. What is the authenticity and value of this painting?
