I have a washstand set labeled only PARTERRE. It is white with a purple floral transfer pattern. I can't find any references as to its origin of manufacture or date.

I just acquired a small pewter pitcher with an attached lid. It resembles a beer stein but has a pour spout. It is 4 inches tall, has ornate rams head decoration, and stamped imprints on the lid. The bottom is marked, and there is also a design inside the bottom. I would like to know as much as possible about the piece, including its value.

I have a set of Royal China Works, Worcester England, green and white with gold trim, including 18 plates, salad plates, 8 serving dishes, 5 various sized platters, and two large and two small tureens with lids. The stamp on the back indicates it was sold by Cullum & Sharpus in London. Can you provide information on this service and its value?

I have a print of a Japanese peacock done by C. Hamilton Smith Esq del published by Whitaker and co in London in 1829. I was wondering if you knew where I could find information on it or get an appraisal in the Brisbane area. Additionally, a local antique dealer mentioned it might be an original, not a print. Does that change the value?
