Thanks all, tbh I'm not expecting a lot for it but SWMBO will be disappointed if that happens. She knows the bits cost her dad quite a few bob when he got them - he built it up over time, sometimes as presents for his missus.
I'll suggest the options to her - she already agreed we'd pop to the local auction rooms and see what they say.
Now, if only I could get her to sell the diamond ring she was left... It was valued (albeit an insurance valuation) at something around £5k in the early 80s IIRC, so it would be a lot more now. She hardly ever wears it (too risky) and I expect when we croak the daughters will just flog it and split the proceeds. But unlike the crockery it doesn't take up much space...
EDIT She knows she wants something useful for it but doesn't know how much...!!!
