<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 382480, member: 51"]A friend of a good friend has asked me to take a look at a few things she inherited from her parents.

I realize prices have plummeted for this kind of thing, but was curious if this 19c rounded glass, Philadelphia china cabinet held some value. (Would $400-500 be just insanely too high ?? --trying to advise.) One thing I liked about the cabinet, it was a bit on the medium-smaller size, not a massive piece. Also have a blurry photo of a marble side table, same era. Can you tell anything from the photo? ($100-200?)</p><p><br /></p><p>Also will show photos of two more items I've already ID'd so don't need help, but just showing for interest. (E.
