I have an incomplete set of antique dishes here. Includes: 2 -8 3/4" Cake plates, 11 -7" plates, 12 -5 5/8" saucers (bowl shape - about an inch deep), 9 teacups, 1 - 6 5/8" bowl (about 3.5" deep), 1 cream pitcher, 1 sugar bowl with lid, 1 tea pot without the lid - broken spout and handle.

The set was packed in a wooden box with a list of pieces and a date written on the inside cover. The list states some pieces that are missing though, 1 plate and the 2 odd cups are missing. All  pieces are unmarked. I believe this set belonged to my husband's great grandmother, Flora S. Woodruff from Washington, CT. The initials E.J.W. are also written on the box - This may be my husband's Grandmother Ellen Jane Woodruff.

The dishes are aged considerably, granted I am no expert. Most of the pieces are crazed, some cracked. When held up to a light, you can see through the cake plates and saucers. The design is raised, a light purple color then, looks to be hand painted gold lines along the design.

Any information on theis set would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!

I found this tankard in an antique store and the dealer is charging $220.  In my research, I have seen few similar items but some similar tankards seem to be selling for $90-120.  In my research I have also found that some were sold as "blanks" and later painted by more amateur, non-factory artists.  I noticed the oval that the lady is in appears to be off a bit.  It seems to be art nouveau style though and my sense is it is genuine.  It is more of a large mug, though, in my estimation and less of a tankard in the style of say, a Limoges. 

I would like to know if it is real and how much it is worth.  thank you

I've got a hutch, table and chairs. There is a sticker in the top drawer of the hutch and a large stamp under each chair. Both say Basic-Witz. 

I've got four chairs. I recovered the seat cushions, but the original fabric is still underneath and is in good shape. the set is otherwise is unmodified.

The table has inverted Y shaped legs. 

We have had this cabinet for about 30 years. When purchased we were told that it was made in the late 1890's. I cannot find any maker's mark anywhere. There are stencils on various parts of the cabinet such as the back, drawer bottoms, and inside in various places. These stencils read "H C Hansen, Holstein IA" and "J Roberts, Sterling Nebraska". I assume these were packing crates that were used to construct the piece. It is 92" high and 38 1/2" wide. I would much appreciate any info anyone might have on the manufacturer of the piece and approximate value.

Thanks!
