    I'm trying to find out the value and any information for this brass antique set with claw feet- I have the screen, tool set, log basket and andirons. It is extremely heavy. My mother had told me it was an antique. The only marking I could find was on the bottom of the tool carrier- It says Royal N Y.

    Hi @andi67 and WELCOME to ANTIQUERS!! Could you go back in to your post and at the VERY TOP of the list of your images - the top one says to "post every image FULL SIZE IMAGE"-- click THAT one.....then we all won't be looking at thumbnails which are small that WE have to click on! Thank YOU SO MUCH!!!

    Yes, not at all antique. 1960s to my eye.

    I don't see the full size pictures, but a perusal of the small photos leads me to believe it depends upon the part of the country you live in. THIS is the best time to put fireplace equipment up for sale, with winter not far away.

    Personally, I would be thrilled to get about $100-$150 for the entire set, but I'd probably just be dumping them into the marketplace inexpensively on Craigslist. If sold separately, perhaps they could be worth more. In my home, I would need the space they take up more. :cat:

    Maybe Royal NY is the foundry?
