Thank you for reaching out to Just Answer. My name is ***** ***** I will do my best to assist you today. Do you have an image or two of the set? This will help me evaluate and get some thoughts over to you.

Antique Expert: Ask Luke, Auctioneer replied 21 days ago

we get a large amount of similar submissions and I was able to locate some images of your set. The issue for value is we get a lot of similar sets thru here on a regular basis and I bring this up to illustrate just how many people are in your shoes and why values are so low because it is such a crowded secondary market. Fair Market Value (what you may see on a typical day at auction) would be $2500-3500 for the set as a whole and the best solution is to list it directly yourself online in a market place rather than going the traditional route of auction or consignment.

Suggestions for avenues for selling items yourself if that is your plan: You could try Facebook Marketplace, NextDoor.com, Offerup.com, GoAntiques.com, Etsy.com, eBay, and/or Chairish.com. Facebook Marketplace and Etsy are my two favorites for this type of thing.

If you have additional questions or items you would like me to look at go back to where you started (JustAnswer.com) and start your question with FOR ASK LUKE under the ANTIQUES or APPRAISALS heading and I will be able to assist.
