A picture that's over 100 years. A nursing chair that's at least 150 years old and was always passed to the first of the next generation to have a baby. A crocodile/alligator ivory letter opener not sure of age. My uncles army uniform, medals ect but there going to the museum and at my mums I've got quite a few silver snuff boxes

"I have my mamgu's [grans] gold locket that I wear every day.
Ive worn my Grandma's wedding ring since she died when I was in my teens
That's lovely "
She was my Grandads second wife and I was the only girl born whilst they were married - all the other girls had his first wife as their Grandma, if that makes sense  |

Makes perfect sense and it's lovely that you have her wedding ring!
I was the oldest grandchild but she was my only grandparent ever and was very special to me. She was 95 when she died six years ago. |

I have a chest of drawers that were my great grandmothers.
They're like a tardis. You can fit all sorts in them.
A dealer offered several hundred for them, so I am guessing they would retail for far more. |

I forgot about the rings. 
Not very old and only just becoming an heirloom as I will hold it for a potential great niece one day - my mother's wedding ring which I now wear as she can't anymore.
I have an aunt's engagement ring that she gave to me when I was 13. I lost the diamond in a book shop 15 years ago and the diamond that replaced it isn't as good. I wore that every day from the age of 13 until I started wearing my mother's wedding ring this summer.
