Hi Natalie,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
According to the LiveAuctioneers website, there have been a half-dozen Paalman tea carts that have been auctioned since 2006, including one that is also Oriental style. These have sold for prices ranging from $17 to $125. Taking these into consideration in comparison with this one, yours is worth $60-90.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
