This was my grandmothers, and is in really good condition. On the bottom of both the cup and saucer it has “hand painted” “made in occupied Japan” with a “gold china” what I’m assuming is a blue and gold logo

I have an old, wooden desk that I'm pretty sure is an antique and I'm trying to figure out what it could be worth. I think it's a writing desk, not sure what kind of wood but maybe mahogany? It also came with a skeleton key. Any information would be greatly appreciated ☺️

1800s Japanese embroidered silk textile featuring Ohio’s state seal and coat of arms. Never restored to my knowledge. Frame is damaged and the textile has a slight rip and stain from aging. I believe this is an exported Japanese textile from the 1890s that was produced for the US Navy who occupied Japan at that time. Naval officers often requested/commissioned these pieces from Japanese artists who handcrafted them. They were then exported. The 44 stars would represent 44 US states which indicates a date around 1890. 

I have absolutely no idea what this is. The best suggestion I have gotten is a vinaigrette, but I'm not really sure that's what it is after looking at pictures of other ones. I believe it is made of some kind of bone. It has no markings of any kind on it. I've had it for well over a year so I would love to find out what exactly it is. Thank you!

Wooden Japanese geisha statue

This was found at a thrift store and is marked "James Dixon and Sons Sheffield" on the pan. It is also marked "hard soldered". The handle is wooden, and it unscrews much like a chafing dish handle would. The pan itself is very much like a skillet or frying pan, not typical of a chafing dish pan which is usually much deeper. The skillet measures 10" across and is about 2" deep if you measure to the rim. The lid is not marked James Dixon and Sons but has a few hard-to-read markings that are visible when you remove the handle. Someone indicated that the "D" indicates it was made in 1878.  There is one small mark on the pan that is rather hard to photograph, and I am not sure if it is a hallmark or a flaw in the manufacturing process. The lid fits perfectly, however, I have no way of knowing if it started life with this pan or not. I have had no luck finding another skillet/frying pan-shaped item marked James Dixon and Sons.  It was also suggested it may have been used in a restaurant/hotel for tableside prep which would make sense to me based on shape and size. If anyone has any idea what I may have here I would be most appreciative!
