Rob, First of all congradulations. also the People of New Orleans are in Our Prayers even to this day since your Hurricane. You Should Look in the Phone book under Antique Dealers and Appraisers, and Make some Calls. That is the Best way to Learn the Value. Also, go to alot of Antique Stores to see what furniture is in there. That will Help you. Good Luck My Friend. Take Care

You'd have to have it appraised by an antiques dealer..it's impossible to tell just by a written description.
