I have three Calif-Asia bamboo rattan chairs, approximately 50-60 years old, in fair condition. I would like to know their value, the significance of the signatures on the bottom (such as 'Rony Dizon' and possibly 'Rosa'), and the meaning of the numbers (135, 371, and 228) on the chairs.

I have two award medals approximately 2" in diameter from Norwich Free Academy (Norwich, CT) presented to my great grandfather in 1862 for most proficiency in Greek & Latin. They are 'Newton Perkins Medals,' first awarded in 1857. Do you have any idea of their value or who else I could contact?

I just purchased a Tell City Chair Company China Cabinet, Young Republic, 2 pieces, 8380 & 8399 pattern numbers. Both pieces are in the #48 Andover finish. It's in excellent condition with just one scuff mark. I am curious if this has any value before I alter it in any way.

I have a weave picture done in 1879 by Rosa Schimocker and I don't know what it is worth. I have some pictures of it to show.

We have several antique pieces, including a cocktail fork with nobility in the 4 crowns, a rocking chair, a secretary's Cherry secretary's desk possibly resembling Chippendale, and a dining room table set. We are unsure of their value and origin. How can we determine their worth and history?

I have a white plate edged in gold with a letter 'C' in a diamond shape on the back. The back also has writing that includes 'Theodere Haxiers; lumoges; France' and some hard-to-read writing like 'Pelini Appl?????'. This plate was given to me by my aunt who received it as a wedding gift. She was married for over 60 years when her husband passed. Can you help identify this plate?
