Not directly. However, you can use them with a Qx item and use the same Qx item on something you know the quality of and compare them.
Ex. add Q50 wheat to a Q50 herbalist table and get Q50 germinated wheat
add Q50 wheat to a Qxx herbalist table and get Q70 germinated wheat. Congratulations you have a much better table than you previously did!
(these numbers are totally fictitious and certainly wrong)
And of course Q has no bearing at all on chests. (unless it effects hp, but I don't think so)
I once dreamt of crafting beautiful thane's rings... then I discovered Big Bear Bangers. Now I smash beautiful things.
