Unmarked thick, heavy, lead crystal footed bowls set

Category
Glassware and Crystal
Condition
Excellent
Description

I have a set of, what I was told to be, lead crystal bowls- 2 serving bowls (I believe), one is round (approx. 6 inches in diameter), the other is oval (approx 8 inches long and 6 inches wide) and 5 smaller bowls (approx. 4 inches in diameter). Thick and heavy in weight. I'm not familiar with glass pattern lingo so my description probably isn't close but, the glass has a zig zag pattern band around the upper part of the bowls. In every other zag it looks like a pine cone. The zigs are flowers. Under the zig zag pattern there are large flowers with a star in the center that go around the bowls. In the very bottom of each bowl is another star. In the round bowl and 5 smaller bowls its a 6 pointed star with bursts around it. In the oval it is an 8 pointed star with bursts. I have photos I've uploaded of the bowls. In the pic of the oval bowl, you can see a crack that circles around. It was like that when given to me. Other than that, all pieces are perfect.

1950's victorian fainting couch

Category
General Antiques and Collectibles
Condition
Excellent
Description

I just bought this couch for $550 from a person online who said he purchased it at an auction. You can tell it has been reupholstered and the wood it in perfect condition. There are little wheels on the feet that look to be ceramic? The wood looks like it it hand carved. He said he has the COA and will mail it as soon as he finds it. I wasnt that bothered by it becasue it is a beautiful piece and I love it regardless of the paperwork. Any info at all would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Limoge Baby's First Tooth Box

Category
Other
Condition
Mint
Description

Hello, While cleaning up I found this box that had in side this, a Limoge box that said "babys first tooth" on the top with blue ribbons all around. After doing some research, I can not tell where the signature is from. The signature says on the bottom:

 

Limoge Imports

Peint Haim

France

 

I can not verify this signature anywhere on the web, so maybe you can help, thanks!

Antique Stiffel Lamp

Category
Lamps and Chandeliers
Condition
Good
Description

Three-pole adjustable Stiffel desk lamp, primarily brass.  Multi-position knob on base allows various combinations of the three bulbs for more or less light.  Knob atop shade allows shade height to be adjusted.  Each bulb socket has a "Stiffel" label affixed.

This lamp is fully functional and feels very solid, though it is fairly dirty as I'm not sure what (if anything) should be used on it.  The shade seems to be original, black exterior with fine gold trim and a light-colored interior.  Some gold trim on the shade is damaged and there is some staining on the inside of shade but it is overall intact.

Any additional information (and valuation, of course) would be appreciated.
