This pen was given to my mother by my grand mother more than 30 years ago and it was given to her by a family that she worked for. I've found that it is a miniature of Jean-Baptiste Greuze's portrait "The Broken Jug" which was painted between 1772-1773. I've seen brooch's in color but none like this.  We've been curious about it for years and wonder of it's value; and how old it may be. We would like legitimate appraisals for a potential sale.

I recently found a two portion Hamilton drafting table, it has a lever that can make it tilt for drafting and blueprint purposes. Another find was the Drafting machince/ arm for the table. We will sell this unique piece, but the buyer will need to pick up the desk. All proceeds of this desk will go to the continuity of a church that has been in my community for 60+ years. 

Just wondering what the rough value is.

Very elegant 9" inches tall vase with a rich brown glaze and real gold leaves. Black on the other side.  Very sturdy, no cracks or chips. A little wear on the inside, but no mark on the bottom. 3 1/2" at top, 3" at bottom, aprox. 6" at widest part. It's really nice and I would love to know if anyone has seen this particular vase before and what it may be worth.

Given to my grandmother by a foreign exchange student. No other details available at this time. The plate measures 10" across.

This pottery looks Native American or South American. Please help me figure it out.
