"This is a 1720's piece of furniture but it does have the appearance of a 1730's piece of furniture". I was thinking the exact same thing.
Brilliant⭐
Haha same same
Amazes me he knows it was finished just before the craftsman went home for dinner.
I was going to say that…😏
He explained that this guy was probably well established so he probably was a trend setter.
I don't' know about you but, I can imagine the builder standing there watching and listening to the conversation. I Imagine this BIG Grin on his face. Just knowing this survived the years is amazing alone. Good job Sir.
that dude be probably dead
I hope I can make something that lasts 100s of years.
Having a 300 years old ghost smiling next to you sounds not so amazing.
@@franciscotoscano9924 i recommend marble sculpture
Old world wood workers were something else. This would be a challenge to make with all our modern tools.
I love seeing old things on the Antiques Road Show , especially when they have a great value. One day I might be on there myself. But I doubt it because my misses says I am just old not valuable. 🤣🤣🤣👍
So glad these are being uploaded!
Wasn't alive when it was filmed, but damn sure alive to enjoy it now
I recorded these from Public TV in the States back in the early 90s on videotape - the quality was not good because I think we only had an antenna and not cable - so very happy to see them here in great quality.
1720. Well that mean it was all hand made. No power tools or technology. Hats off to those guys.
I love how the owner keeps repeating what he says as if he already knew.
😂 why did it irritate me
He just wanted to get to the part of how much it was worth.
And in his superbly gravelly, received pronunciation voice 😄
I enjoyed a bit of relief when he said he’d never noticed the L on the bottom of the drawer
Amazing. I didn't even know laburnum was used to build things. It's nice to learn new stuff even if you're old as the hills.
Love Antiques Roadhouse BBC or American
That’s the one with the peanuts all over the floor right? 😂
I seem to remember there was a piece of furniture like this on the AR years ago that had hidden draws also and the expert showed the owner a hidden draw that the owners didn't even realise was there.
Most of the desks from that era and the 1800's had at least one hidden compartment. Most modern (1960's and later) roll top desks don't have them, but any competent furniture maker can add them. I bought a fairly modern roll top desk that was in sad shape for $50 at a yard sale. I restored it and added several hidden compartments to it. When I displayed it at a consignment shop I put a sign on it stating how many hidden compartments it had. The store owner said that a few of the compartments were located by customers, but even he couldn't find the rest of them until he opened the sealed envelope I left for the new owner, that detailed where each and every compartment was and how to open it. One could only be opened if you passed a strong magnet over a certain flat spot, but only in one direction. Passing it in the other direction locked it after you shut it.
I see quite a few comnents that its value would be much much less now. Id say(as an antiques dealer myself)that it would be worth 5 figures nowadays in a good auction. Pieces like this def plummeted 15 years ago but have made a good comeback if the quslity is v high. Normal brown furniture is def still worth peanuts.
And it would be good to see more things like this on the roadshow again, real antiques.
Quality always sells well. Every day plain brown furniture may have dropped but the good stuff retains its value with people who collect it.
Thankyou my layman's thoughts exactly
As a student who's planning to move away from home soon, I love that brown furniture is so cheap since it means I can buy so many interesting things for cheap! For example, a store I like to visit currently has 4 mid 18th century baroque chairs that they only want 15 euro each for
Great to see these uploaded clips, keep them coming.
Jolly good! Went to town he did!
I've got one of them in the shed.
Put yer spanners and sockets in there.
The appraisers name I believe was Bly. His enthusiasm for quality furniture always shone through. This clip reminds me of how good this programme was when it concentrated on the objects brought in by the public not airy fairy items like today.
He says he didn't do one show sober for 15 years, which would have included this episode. You'd never guess.
John Bly, an amazing man with unreal knowledge on furniture.
@@paulfitzgerald7513 He knew his wood.
@@spudpud-T67 He certainly did, he was brilliant.
John Bly, I went to school with his sons and lived two doors down from him.
I guessed 17,000. I am legend, hah!
In the Uffizzi I saw a whole room done to this standard. Awesome.
I wish the BBC AR would do the updated prices for today like the American version.
Lovely to listen to RP
Hugh Scully was always fantastically informative. I wonder what it's worth is now- up, down or the same?
John Bly had the most amazing ASMR voice.
Wonder how the guy got it from his council flat to the venue?
A piece of furniture that's older than the United States, imagine an American trying to get to grips with that idea 😂
1720 is older than most countries as we know them today...
Stephen fry as Lord Melchett springs to mind.
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used to get a lift with him (the expert, John Bly) and his sons to school on Saturday mornings.
he loves it so much he doesnt want to put a number on it
This reminds me of that episode of OAFA.
Replacement value!? You can't replace this piece of furniture at any cost. It might no be a one of a kind, but it surely is rare. No amount of money can get you the same back again.
He was very knowledgeable but he forgot to mention that it was made on a Tuesday.
About the same period as the tory cabinet!
Yes to think Jacob rees mogg was a child when that was made 🤪.
Ah, yes.
I shouldn't say this as a former restorer but the appraiser is so good i forgot about the chest of drawers. Does anyone know his name??
John Bly
Derek Kastanos
Oohhw, feeewrdrablefaaaabedraaadelferghelghraaaaa….well I must say I was very, very, drunk!
Made me laugh, when you know you know 😂😂
@@paulw3765glad I could give someone a good laugh. 😊
@@jeanducheamps7697 OH you certainly did, it brightened up my Wednesday 😊😊
Well reminded me of Mr bean
@@frozengamer3030 The Fast Show- Rowley Birken QC.. just sounds so much like him 😂😂😂
My house was made around 1890 when does it become an Antique..?
the Antiques Roadshow needs to return to English furniture. STOP talking about Polynesian fighting sticks / mid century crap and crockery once sold at Woolworths (clarice cliff)
The guy in the white shirt sounds like a cartoon character
the appraiser is a joy to listen and watch... the owner... omg what a bore...i cant even stand his voice...
Why didn't someone tell the owner about his collar?
How do antiques survive over centuries?
The rich, I think.
@@HunterShows yeah, but 1720?? That's 300 YEARS!
@@jeffreyb8770 Gonna have to be some multi generational wealth.
@@jeffreyb8770 Not that rare, actually. Good manufacture, people taking good care of it.
It's now worth £3.000 on a good day.
With shrinkflation, it's probably gotten a lot smaller, too :( poor tiny desk.
Yea its a shame for that piece it should turn back round but doubt get the old time prices.
What sources do you have for that?
@@joedennehy386 tomato and HP 😜
@@38fkr97 He meant references. He doesn't want to eat the desk. 👨🎓
big npc noises from the owner of that thing. also, you know he's a true player based on that popped collar.
The owner of the cabinet sounds like his voice was dubbed in with bad ADR, just the way he talks.
Lol... Americans be like "OMG thats so old and rare!!"...... Brits be like "Yeah Ive got 2 of those in the shed"
I looked through the Vids; and they must be real real old as the digital colorations all seem to have yellowish tinge like that of old movies!!🥺
Unlike the US Antique Roadshows even though May even be more than 5yrs but not outdated in its digital high-definition!!😕
1990 feels like 1720 tbh No internet and no smarth phones... Might aswell be on a different planet.
Everyday i wake up. God have something good for my. God the Sheppard. God is helping my.
cracking accents on both men :)
i don't know why the owner would be surprised by the quoted value of the item. give me a choice of Babe Ruth's authentic bat, and the furniture, in a practical world, i take the furniture.
Made between 5:20 and teatime approx
I may have built this
I'm sure that the guy seeking the valuation was annoyed when he saw the state of his collar during his 15 minutes of fame
Nah, it's a real look over there, intentionl definitely, possibly covering gang tattoos
He looks like a lot of my friends grandad s and almost all New Zealand politicians
@John Ashtone perfect the prefect look!
When I was a boy and teenager we lived two doors down from the expert in this clip, John Bly. It became tradition to spend Boxing Day at his house, and after a few glasses of red wine he would tell some tales of Antiques Roadshow. What we see is part two of the day, people come with their bits and pieces in the morning and are asked to come back in the afternoon if they have an interesting item. John said that they would come back having been to the hairdresser, best clothes and so on 🤣
@@keithorbell8946 i love you!: you have substance
Had it been a piece of pottery 15 to 18000 pounds. But because it's wood and took six months to make. It'll be three thousand pounds on a good day.
Almost nothing made today will be worth anything in 300 years.
Ah, 1720 so around about half past 5...
Jolly good sir, shall we agree 10 quid then? Thank you so very much and have a nice day!
How IKEA cabinets would look after 300 years??😂
How do they know it was made at 5.20 pm 😂😂
Because you don’t produce work like that when you knock off at 4pm. 😉
Is the owner of the piece Mr Bean?
In Europe, this not unusual, sheet I lived in a nice house built in the 1700's I Italy. In the 1960's.
in today's market, worth less than a collectible video game Cartridge
Oh no, this kind of furniture only increased in value.
The owner of the piece sounds like Mr Bean.
Who else is annoyed that the owner has popped the collar of his dress shirt?
That was back in the late 1980s valuation… The Value today is around £9000 to £10,000 its devalued …Due to Market fashion of Dark furniture… No one wants it anymore……
No, that's only for ordinary pieces. This one kind increased.
IKEA rubbish!
Always makes me laugh how some upper crust folk talk. Like the chap who owns the old bit of furniture. When speaking, pronounses 'yes' which sounds like 'ears'!
I love the way that they avoid the "vulgar" valuation and instead give the value "for insurance purposes", expecting it to never be sold...
Yeah right!
He was smooth operator, that expert. The guy who owned it kept his composure well in fairness.
Burr yew.....??? !!
Yes. Very fine and expensive
@Michael Montagu but yew is a soft wood, l thought only hard wood tree had burrs....?
I never seen burr yew in 45 years.
@gruesome twosome It's really rare. It was popular in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. I had a share in an antique shop in the 1980s and only ever had one piece in about 8 years. It was more commonly used for crossbanding and small pieces like tea caddies and other small boxes.
@Michael Montagu l'm just baffled l've never seen it, people l've asked in the past say no it's a soft wood...
Even the company I used to buy veneer from said no.
So l've always thought it wasn't available in burr form, but every days a school day 👍 thanks for letting me know its appreciated.
@@michaelmontagu3979 thanks for that it's appreciated.
1720 eh? Typical. I bet the bloke was due to finish work at 1730. Didn't want to be late going home.
If a cabinet like this was made in the American Colonies it would be worth much more.
Ok Fiona Bruce
