Hi Sacha,

Sweet Padlock!  I've never seen one like it.  It reminds me of American smoke house padlocks, it also appears to me to have a hidden key hole.  I would say your Russian padlock is around 100-150 years old and is worth between $75-150 dollars.  Is it for sale?

Hi Tameka,

Joy Evans art has really not increased in value. Most are selling for less than issue price. The estimated value is $25 to $130 depending on the quality of the framing. One sold in 2010 for $50. The appraised value was $200.

Thanks,

Hi Nick,

I believe what you have is a replica of either a Markwick Markham (1725-1825)or George Prior (1793-1830). They both created pieces for the Turkish market. In my research I have found that you will find their name on the front of the watch.
