I have 8 tall glasses, 8 juice glasses and 7 round glasses. All coated with rubber material. Excellent shape. Believed to be 1950's.
I have two angel vases that appear to be funeral vases. They stand approximately 21" tall with the wings of the angels being full length vases. On the bottom of the angel holding the book is a handwritten notation that it is, "From Estate of Bishop Matthews". Other markings include the stamped numbers, "6959" and below that the numbers "35". Also written by hand in what appears to be black ink is, "D" "VII" "44". The conditions appear as good, but upon close examination, the vase with the book has a crack that encompasses the entire circumfrence. Someone tried to have the item repaired as there are signs of "pins" holding the statuette together. A newspaper clipping from 1999 was inserted in one of the vases that mentioned an estate in Hawaii that was pilferred by it's caretaker. This estate was some form of royalty that was left to a school there and the estate is worth Billions. I understood the caretaker's name to be "Bishop" (?). Though I could not find any connection or verification on the story, someone thought there was a connection and placed the article in one of the vases. Unfortunately the article is now lost and I am telling the story best from memory. The angel with the book is in fair condition and the tamborine angel vase is in slightly better condition.
Can anyone help me find information on these vases and give me a ballpark figure as to their worth? Thanks.
sorry for no pics it keeps saying the file is to large and im not sure how to make it smaller. the compass casing does have some tarnishing. it does still work, the glass is not cracked. everything on it work as good as it did when it was made its just tarnished and does need a good cleaning.
Its an 1600s Book i got as a Present. about the life of christus.
this painting is huge!! looks like acrylics on hemp canvas..it hung in the spare bedroom of my grandfathers house till he passed and left it and others to me...i heard from my father that he may have got it in mexico in the 70s has an emblem "return to maracaibo" which may be venezuelan after researching

as you can see in the photos the detail is amazing and the paint literally comes off the painting and has a texture to it

this dish is tarnished but im not about to polish it because i dont have any experience with that...i have been looking online for some time for any other reed and barton piece with 1812 on it but to no avail if anyone has any information on this piece that would be great!
this dish has what looks like hebrew letters around the outside wall and the bottom is a bit rounded and has pictures of a 8 pointed star in the middle and characters of people, animals, and plants on the bottom.
I think the pictures say it all. Thanks
