You can find an Antique dealer or an independent appraiser who does appraisals. If you have a local antique shop you can call to see if they do appraisals and if they don't they are bound to know someone who does them.

Depending on the age of the item you may want to contact Christie's Auction house or Sotheby's in New York. They will give an appraisal from a very detailed complete picture. You can also contact carousel museums such as the one in Bristol Conn. These suggestions will help appraise an old carousel piece. Auction houses can appraise new ones.
