I purchased another painting from AVC. There are minor dents on the left lower side, and one is quite noticeable. Can you see the photos I uploaded? Also, I found an exact painting on the internet sold for 7,079 EUR in 2012. Is this the same painting?

I have several pieces of jewelry, including an Italian braided necklace, a loop necklace, a James Avery sterling silver Jerusalem cross pendant, a St. Mary’s University 1949 class ring, and a vintage silver tone metal filigree panel bracelet with micro petite point medallion. I need help identifying their ages, condition, and potential value. Can you assist with appraisals and provide information on the metal content and gemstones if any?

I need help identifying a pair of antique chairs I inherited. The chairs have intricately carved backs, claw feet, are very wide, and are upholstered. The condition is worn, but there is no maker's mark or serial number, and I don't know how old they are.

I need to value a blue ceramic jar that is either from Japan or North Carolina, dating back to the early 1900s. It is complete and has no markings on the bottom. I have images of the piece and it was part of my father's estate from Faison, NC, but it is currently located in my residence in Texas. How can I determine its value and where can I sell it?
