Over the course of the next twelve months or so, I will be liquidating my mother\'s estate to help pay for my father\'s healthcare. My mother collected vintage items, antiques, French items, European items, but mostly French antiques. Items still to come will include more hens, mostly Staffordshire, many examples of Haviland china, many rare vinaigrettes, many antique beer steins, various antique glass items, many silver miniature coaches, plus many more items.
