The Meriden B. Company cake stand with the flower handle can be valued at about 45 dollars depending on its condition. This cake stand is designed for weddings and dates to the late 1800s.
Meriden Firearms, 1905-1915, was a subsidiary of Sears Roebuck. Probably not real ivory, but could be. Value depends on condition, but probably not over $150 in excellent condition.
Don't believe them. Call your insurance company and let them handle it. If you don't, you could end up paying for something that you are not even responsible for. And the people could come back through their insurance company later and get you to pay again. The best thing is to call your insurance company, that is what you pay for.
As the blade lies on the table with the point facing to the left there will be a maker's mark approximately 1.75 inches from the point where the blade and handle join. The mark will say "MERIDEN CUTLERY CO" and there will be a small anvil above it. I am just now learning about this company after having inherited a staghorn-handled carving set in 2009. I haven't seen any like mine on the 'net yet. My set has staghorn handles that are complete to the point of the horn, not cut and capped like those I have located. I would like to know more about dating this set, as I am relatively sure it came from my Kentucky side of the family and could be mid- to early 19th Century.
First, I think you mean Meriden. In the early 1900s, Winchester refused to sell guns to Sears, claiming that their discounted prices harmed the firearms industry. This left Sears looking for a supplier of guns. The Meriden Firearms Company was formed when Sears Roebuck purchased the Andrew Fyrberg & Sons firearms manufacturing plant and moved the plant and machinery to Meriden, Connecticut in 1905. The company started manufacturing firearms mid 1905. In 1918 Sears announced that the Meriden Firearms Company would discontinue the manufacture of sporting firearms. Meriden Firearms represented a selection of good-quality, relatively low-cost firearms of which many survive in operational condition more than 100 years later. The shotguns were well made and available in several grades. All had automatic safeties and cocking indicators. Barrels could be had in twist, damascus of several grades, armory steel or Krupp steel. Hammerless or hammer shotguns with varying amounts of engraving were available. Most were side by side double barreled shotguns.
QUESTION?---- is it silver if so: Meriden Britannia Company, founded in 1852 in Meriden, Conn. The company initially made products using a metal alloy called Britannia metal to approximate the appearance of pewter. They quickly added silverplated products and items made from German Silver, also known as nickel silver. The Meriden Britannia Co. became part of International Silver in 1898, but some of their marks were used into the 1930's. Yours looks like an 188o's piece, but it could date much later than that. Most like this sell for less than $50.00.
After the robbery, the company invested in an expensive and robust security system. Her class schedule was robust, but she thought she could handle it.
The UCMJ could handle it, but it might be better for everyone if the First Sergeant or Company Gunny simply and quietly took care of the problem.
A fake "handle" could be a fake name, an alias

Depending on the city you live in the best option would be a local flower shop. However there are places like FTD that you could see the flowers online. Also you can check flower businesses online and check their reviews.
what good could email do to the company
I've never heard of a flower that intentionally stabs you... could you be referring to the Rose?
