This lovely lady’s face is an absolute picture and her three children are very well behaved. I am so pleased for her.
funny to think they're in their thirties now, probably with kids of their own.
She couldn't believe how old they were, she must have thought she misheard him.
Probably sedated before the show..
Not devil at All. Gods😊😊😊😊
Love it when people find something of value they didn't know they had.

Always good to get a sincere reaction. Mostly, people have a good idea what their antiques are roughly worth.
Better times. The children were so well behaved. As we were as children.
yes, my mother would have flogged me if I'd been rude or 'played up'. My father ran an estate once owned by a cousin of the late Queen, who still lived in the mansion. We would go for tea sometimes with this lady and her mother, who was a Sandiman, of the port family. That was definitely a best behaviour, speak when spoken too type of affair under my mothers stern gaze. It didn't do me any harm to sit still, say please and thank you and talk when invited to do so. They were both always very interested in my school work and the things I liked to do.
I still hate bad manners, swearing and disrespecting women.
Always fun to see each generation say that they were perfectly behaved angels and their parents would brook no wrong from them. And, of course, the current children are absolute terrors. Makes me chuckle every time.
edit: A great one I just found was a complaint that the printing press was a bad because now people didn't have to write out all their books by hand.
A sweet Swede almost floored by a Brit telling her about Greek statuettes.
Those are worth a LOT more than that
This was 33 years ago.

Thanks. 👍👌👏
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
Fluently "Denglish"!
They're in Denmark 🙄
But she bought them in Helsinborg, so more likely speaking Svenglish 😉
The silver appraiser, he gets so much wrong it hurts my soul.
1 Germany invented the Sterling standard.
2 800 Silver had been used for a thousand years throughout Europe.
3 English only perfected the system of marking for England. Every nation that made Gold & Silver items had a marking system.
4 Easterlings the term England used to refer to Germans was where ea"sterling" comes from.
5 800 as a mark was used for centuries to demarkate it as a silver with greater resilience so it could be used for heavier purposes.
6 Pour water in that basin and it would drain out those holes in the central post.
7 It was clearly intended for a display of piled clusters of grapes as both a dessert server and a grand display to adorn the table.
And for anyone who wants to learn why they all used 925 silver, it was not because it was intended for a better dining room item. It was to confirm to guests that at a moments notice the host had the financial resources in precious metals to pay an army. That is why the English Goldsmithing & Silversmithing guild was formed. It was intended to prove the worth of the host in the stacks of gold and silver items that lined the walls of those grand dining rooms.
But let me be clear, England was the late comer to that party. Germany, France, Czechoslovakia, Austria and Hungary were the early entrants to that game and thee ones who formed that process were the nomadic Israelites who not only smithed metals but cut gemstones. This is why Aristocrats wore Jewelry, to have money literally at their fingertips.
The word sterling comes from the middle English Steorraling meaning star-ling or the little star that was found on silver coins of the time
I wonder if the lady was disappointed they where Hercules instead of the devil
What elaborate tat, melt it down
She is trying so hard to understand everything.
YaAaAaAaAawn
This gentleman does not have gloves on.
LOL, absolutely no need.
