I just received a very special book, the Variata, which is the 1540 version of the Augsburg confession and includes other books by Martin Luther. I believe the binding may be a manuscript written by Martin Luther. How can I verify this and what are the implications of such a discovery?

I have an antique dental cabinet with a milk glass top and milk glass bottoms or trays in drawers and doors, which appear to have held instruments. The top three door compartments are metal-lined with milk glass bottoms. Each door and drawer has a medicinal odor. I would like to know who made it, where it was made and used, and its value. It does not have any identifying markings.
