Things I don't know what they are or what they are worth. First up is a large glass globe with a horse and carriage on it. Its about 12'' across; not circumference. I have never seen a kerosene lamp this large in person. There are a couple on ebay that sold for a fortune but mine looks different to me. If someone can confirm that is what it is I would be grateful. It came in an auction box. looks like it was mold made and saw cut.

Second I bought these figurines. I never buy figurines but these were very detailed. The signature on the back with a T... is the only mark I can find. I have no idea where to begin my research. I just had a good feeling about them.

This is some sort of homemade from an old wooden crate. I dont think its worth anything but I really want to know what the heck it is.

I bought just the other day at the thrift store. I thought this looks like a piece of carved bamboo. When I look up carved bamboo I find a lot of very expensive items that do not look the same. So if anybody has any knowledge about this I would be very appreciative.

I don't know what these are called and I can't read the sticker

These are part of a set of 6 Ponoma glass bowl. That are some sort of double acid etched technique. I got 6 of them for a deal. They are from around 1885. Just sharing a little knowledge I actually did discover on my own.

The label on the next to last one reads" For Decoration Only Made In China"
 

I will not promise. but I think the 1 might be a bat box.
 

maybe a Queen Bee box ?

That probably makes the most sense. My first thought was bat box but there was no real way for the bats to enter once you put that piece of wood on the back. Now I can take my queen bee everywhere I go.
