We have a very old, hand woven Indian blanket. We've had several so-called experts look at it with no success in determining it's origin. Does anyone know the REAL experts on early 19th century Native American textiles?

My grandfather worked for the Railroad & they were allowed to take some furniture off one of the coaches this was in 1940 or early 50's. He took several chairs and I have one but don't know if it's antique or what. It is walnut armchair filled with horsehair, velvet covering and very heavy. According to my mom it seemed old back then and was told it came off some Mexican Bandits coach. If anyone has heard of this name could you let me know.

My aunt has a silver antique teapot. She has asked me to see if there was any value to it. I have searched endlessly online to find the name on the bottom of that teapot. The name is YOUTH home & edwards. This teapot also came with a double handled holder for cream or suger. Does anyone have any information on this antique, or on the maker of this teapot?

I have a beautiful Royal Worcester plate. It is marked with the number 51 on the back and I am wondering if anyone knows how to estimate the value.
