I found it in a storage unit auction with a mixed bag of other antique silver items. I have no information on the background .

I bought this from an antique shop in northern California 3 years ago. The store owner got it at an estate sale in the Oakland hills. He said it was made in the 1960's. It has a 1 " label on the bottom 2 " diameter stem that goes in the black base that says "Smart Italia." Tha's all I know about it.

I would like to find out who made it, how rare it is, and what it is worth.

It has gold accents as a flower on the inside on the bottom of the coffee cups, flowers on the outside on the handle and a ring of gold around the top inside of the cup. On all items it has a painted picture of lovers sitting in a meadow, also all items have similar gold accents.

Round steped bowl, glazed lite green with elephants all the way around with fluted base. Can anyone tell me about this and whats is value?

it is in good condition and it is gun metal in color. the crown is off but it does work and the crystal is good.

this is a two handled handpainted oriental vase. The dragon appears to be painted with gold. I was told it is pre 1900 . There is some sort of oriental markings on the bottom, but I don't know if it is Chinese or Japanese
