My grandmother recently passed away and we are hoping to put her house in the market soon. I am selling/donating all of her furniture, but do not know how much the bedroom set is worth. It is a three-piece set from American of Martinsville purchased sometime in the mid 1900s. The smallest piece (bedside table?) has some cigarette burns and different handles. Otherwise, it appears to be in great condition. The only markings are the brand name printed inside the drawers. Any guidance regarding value or more information on the set and when it was made would be appreciated!
Would appreciate any help in confirming the identification of a vase which appears to be Rosenthal & Co. I acquired the piece at an estate sale, and unfortunately don't have any information other than the markings that would help with identification. Photos are included. The vase stands at about 5" high.

I have a three piece set, loveseat settee and two (ladies and gents) parlor chairs that were my great grandmothers. The settee is darker green velvet and has a tag that simply says "style no. 43, cover no. 285 and VICTORIAN Montgomery, Ala.". The chairs are light green velvet and have no tags. They all have flowers carved on the top. I know they are earlier than 1970's. How can I tell who made them and when?
