Hello,I have 3 iron figurines that have been in the family for as long as anyone can remember. Most of my family is gone now so I can't get any more history on these items. The chimney sweeps are 5.5 inches by 1.5. The man kneeling on chair is 5x2 inches. There are no markings that I can see. I'm not sure what they are. My guess is that the chimney sweeps were used to extinguish candles. The paint is worn and they are heavy. Can you tell me what they are and if they are at all valuable? Thank you, Kathleen santos

This chair belonged to my father.  It doesn't seem to have any markings on it to identify the maker.  I believe it was recaned at some point.  You can see underneath the seat that something in the corners was removed.  It has design painted on the arms and edges.  It's not very heavy.  I was told that it's probably mid 19th century  and probably not from France.  It's in good condition but appears to me to be sort of fragile, so I don't really use.  I'd like to sell it, but I have no idea what it might be worth.   Thanks for any info or advice.

I have a el greco i believe its called unknown man. I know its not the original but was still curious if there is any value. I found it in a foreclosure i cleaned out. It was a older gentlemans house who passed away. He was a professor of some type of art at Northern Arizona university. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
