Appraisers Terry and Kathy Maurer provided informal evaluations of more than 200 items – ranging from fine art to folk art. Highlights included a late 1800s Italian music box, early 20th C. bronzes, a 1878 surveyor’s book, a mid-1800s flower vase, and much, much more! Terry was especially delighted to appraise a silver cow creamer – which turned out to be a true piece from Tiffany’s.
