Hi I recently purchased this amazing armoire wardrobe and have been trying to find out anything I can about it but I havent had much luck!  

A few details- it has handmade dovetailed drawers, the metal looks hand forged, the original screws are round but with uneven marks - it is solid wood. The wood is in original condition, never refinished. The bottom of one drawer is signed but there are no other markings I can find regarding the maker etc.

Can anyone tell me if they know anything about it or how much it may be worth?  My friend really wants to paint it but if it is worth more than I paid for it I dont want to change it.

THANK YOU!

I have a rolltop desk that was made by Riverside.  I do not have any history on it but would like to know what it is worth.  Thank you.

Ewer or pitcher has marking on bottom.  Not sure if it's and O or a Q 2201 with the number 36 under that.  Etched into the ceramic and barely visible is a number I believe is 436.

I have a Roberts and Belk silver service - tea pot, coffee pot, sugar and creamer. there is good information that it was made in about 1885. The marks on the bottom are as follows:



A lamp (resembles "Aladdin Lamp")

Under this are:

R&B

an 'S' with a line through it

two letters in English script (I cannot make them out)

a crown

On the tops of the coffee and tea pots is a bird

Found this vase in an attic 56 years ago.  It belonged to my great aunt who was in her 90s at that time.  It stands approximately 18 1/2" tall.  Top broken on one side and repainted.
