What is the value of blue willow style dishes made in Japan? The dishes have pictures of cabins and trees in blue on a white background, with very fine cracking in the white part but not on the blue. The dishes belonged to my mother, who passed away 30 years ago.

I inherited a Lane Chest from my grandmother. The serial number indicates 1954, and a date on the original sales slip still stapled on the inside has a date of 11/8/1945. The inside is pristine, and we had some repair work on the outside by a professional. What type of wood is it, where was it fabricated, and what is its ballpark value?

I have two original paintings from my great aunt in Belgium. I am trying to identify the artists and understand more about the paintings. The first painting is signed 'G. Amltiuz Lecler *leclerc' and has '1730' written on it. The second painting is signed with a similar but different signature. I have attached pictures of the signatures and the backs of the paintings. Can you help identify the artists and provide any information about the paintings, including their potential value?

I have an old atlas I will be donating to a museum. Can you give me a valuation for it: Standard Atlas Wallace County Kansas, Geo. A Ogle and Company, 1908, Chicago. The condition is good with all pages and maps intact, a strong but worn binding, and one page has light writing on it.

How can I get information on blue and white ceramic figures with a red stamp showing Chinese characters followed by 'made in China'? I bought them at a thrift store a few years ago. One is a rooster about 6" tall with a blue bow and gold beak. I'm wondering if these items have any value.
