Help identifying and possibly appraising an old chair!!

Category
Furniture
Condition
Good
Description

Someone tossed this chair at the local dump, and I was able to rescue it. I have searched and searched online for it with no luck. I don't know how old it is or where it was made. There are no markings underneath it. I have done very little as far as cleaning it goes (I just went over it with the shop vac one time). Some of the detail on the legs is peeling off; I don't know if it belongs in the dump or not (either way, I like the way it looks, so I am happy I rescued it!!). It may not even be that old!! I really am at a loss on this one and would appreciate any help I could get!!

Silverware Chest

Furniture
Condition
Good
Description

I love this piece but unfortunately I have to sell it. But I don't know how to price it. I bought it for $40 from a lady that told me her great aunt imported and exported antiques in Miami a long time ago. This is one of the pieces she gave her. I cannot find any identifying marks anywhere. Any info on this piece will be greatly appreciated.

Victorian style sofa

Category
Furniture
Condition
Good
Description

Victorian style sofa I acquired from someone who has owned it since the 1950’s. Heavy hardwood and stiff textile. No identifying markings or tags that I can find. Each cushion weighs 9lbs. Cushion stuffing is thick and heavy, and seems to be an organic material. Each cushion has a zipper on the back. Only words I can find on the sofa is on the zipper pull that says “ROVAN”.
Bottom of sofa frame contains stiff metal springs.
Small scratches and nicks in wood from touching walls and other furniture while being moved over the years. Mostly unnoticeable after being polished. No visible stains, tears, or flaws in fabric.

Condition
Good
Description

The photos tell it best. The C.O.A came with this lithograph. Because of it, I am struggling to determine the value as I bought it at an estate sale.

Noritake

Category
China
Condition
Excellent
Description

Noritake China I picked up from a rummage sale. Has gold trim, white and cream colored, scalloped edges, and from what I could Identify from the stamps is around the 1930s. Not all pictured, as there are several packed boxes. I think its a set for 12? However, I would have to count and do a full inventory.
