BBC antique volunteer guests flew with small teapot surveillance value

Duncan Campbell was faced with evaluating the “most beautiful teapot” he saw on the latest installment antique roads and his owners remained Gobsmacked

Antique Road Specialist Duncan Campbell, during the last installment of the BBC show “the most beautiful teapot” was faced with evaluating.

The episode, which was released on Sunday, March 30, has seen that the host Fiona Bruce offers a popular program from Swanage Pier in Dorset, where a famous Pantomim Dame’s costumes among the emphasis, a clock and precious star wars with a large price tag.

However, it was a small silver teapot that attracted the attention of Duncan. At first glance, the item seemed to be the toy of a child, but in fact, actually more than £ more than £.

The teapot and Duncan, which were perfectly attached to a palm, were clearly influenced. He said: “This is the most beautiful teapot I have seen on the antique roads and the most beautiful teapot I have seen unquestionably.

“I absolutely worship and I’m a little jealous.”

The teapot was transferred to the guests by a great uncle and aunt, and Duncan announced that Paul de Lameri was a miniature bullet teapot called “the most sought -after silver from the British silverist”.

Paul de Lameter usually did not make miniature products and Duncan said that having was “quite rare”. It was held in 1728 and caused a shocking “wow” from the guests who brought the teapot, worth at least 12,000.

Duncan added: “Absolutely very nice. If I could buy a piece of silver, I could have taken home from all the demonstrations I’ve ever done, that would happen.”

The teapot owners said: “I knew it was special, but it is good to confirm.”
