valuation for claim

We recently had a break-in and lots of old jewellery, silver items and cut-glass was stolen. We need to start to value these for the insurers and the police. I have no idea where to start. The policy is new for old but the items are very old, so I can't just look in shops to see how much things can be bought for now.
Can anyone advise how I can value the items?

If the items are no longer available they will either go for their "2nd hand" value, their last retail price or their modern equiv's value.
If there are no modern equivs then start pulling together values from the 2nd hand market, in which case eBay is probably as good a place as anywhere
Obviously to others, assuming these things have any value, its a good warning to ensure you periodically have these things valued.0
