What's it worth? Appraisal of Bohemian chandeliers

Hi there!

We have 2 chandeliers that we inherited with my grandparents home. We were wanting to get an appraisal on them.  The house was built in 1975 and the lights were original to the house.  They are dirty but in good shape.  would you please give us an appraisal on 1 complete chandelier. (one is missing the piece that attaches to the ceiling. )

There are  12 small lights around the outer edge and one large bulb in the center.  There are 6 main arms coming off the center. Each arm has 2 small arms with a light at the end of each .  There is a crystal tag on the top of the light that says Bohemian Crystal Chandelier.  Made in Czech (the second picture shows this tag)

Thanks for your help and we look forward to hearing from you!

AW says: These are beatiful examples of Czech glass chandeliers. The strands of rosettes and prisms are very nicely crafted and Czech, aka Bohemian crystal is some of the best crystal made. These are circa 1910s-20s, as per the cloth covered electical chords. 

Of course you won’t want to take the tag off! 

My appraisal is for the two as a pair.

What's it worth? Appraisal for gold gilted mirror

Debi says: What can you tell me about this gold mirror?

AW says: Thanks for sending a picture of the back. This was critical in determining the age of your mirror. This lovely gold gilt mirror is in the Chippendale/European Style. Most likely French. It’s circa 1910-1930.

Your mirror is a bit better than most in this vein because of the detailed crest w/ the scene on top. (which is a print)
