When sightseeing, do you like modern architecture or Victorian/antique architecture?

What is awe-inspiring for you?
For me , it will those modern sckyscrapers and buildings like the Esplanade in Singapore, Harbour bridge in Sydney, China bank in Hong Kong, Taipei arena in Taiwan, Pudong building in Shanghai.

See the link. This is about a village in Umbria, Italy called Bagnoregio. Believe me, this is one of the most awe inspiring places I´ve seen. Read the article about Bagnoregio.

Where can I research (free) the value of an antique Victorian reproduction couch?

First off, if it's reproduction, it's probably not an antique. Reproduction meanns it's a copy. In any case, reproductions of antique Victorian couches are running for around $500 american.
Here is a google search thet will give you lots of information. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=antique+Victorian+reproduction+couch

Antique Victorian Black Slate Mantle Clock?

does anyone know how to adjust the pendulum to stop the clock losing time, also the chime works intermittantley, it works on the half hour but sometimes not on the hour, but if you put the key in and turn it a bit to the right the chime works!
Any suggestions to clean black slate and make it shine?

No answer on the clock movement

Answer for bringing back slate to make it shine

take a soft lint free cloth and squeeze a small amount of baby oil on it and wipe the surface of the slate. Buff when completed. This treatment works beautifully on my natural slate fire surround and fireplace.

Antique victorian crystal item?? Please help to identify?

I have a crystal cone shaped item that is approx 6" long & 4" wide-narrows to a point looks like waflecone. It is definately crystal as it picks up light and colors. I was told that maybe it is a victorian light shade that hangs upside down? I have no idea what it is, but is sure looks awesome. I appreciate any help that you can give me. Thanks!!

Here is a site I located that has an assortment of antique Victorian glass lamp shades. Perhaps you can find a picture than resembles the one you have.
