Gorgeous Greek Vase - What is is worth?

Question: I am trying to value this vase. Greek Vase - . It is just beautiful and has the attached emblem on bottom. Can you please help? Please see attached photo’s. Sparkles incredibly and has so much gold trim – very thick. Pictures show a bit of cracking on bottom – but nothing like this on rest of vase. I just know it is valuable and very old! If nothing else the 24K trim has to be somewhat valuable!

 

RD Langer replies: Kelly, I think your vase is modern. However, phone William Jenack Auctioneers, ask for their e-mail address, and send the photo to them for an auction estimate 845-469-9095. Give them the dimensions as well as a photo of the bottom. Let me know what he says. This is definitely greek to me.

What is it Worth? Tin Boxes

QUESTION

Please help! Is this trash or cash?? Found and bought at a thrift store, in Palm Beach county Florida! Thanks in advance, Markings found on tin are hard to make out but if u need more info please reply!
Dianne

ANSWER

Dear Dianne,

The tins, unfortunately are in poor condition and do not appear to be worth too much. I would, however, contact Bill Jenack at Jenack auctioneers, Chester, NY, 845-469-9095 to see whether they might have any auction value.

Unfortunately I doubt that PB auctioneers on Dixie Highway in Palm Beach Florida or even Bill Hood in Boca Raton, Florida would be interested. I would place a value of between $25 to $50 for the lot.

Good luck.

Best,

RD Langer
