GUEST: This is a teapot that my great-grandfather collected, and it's just been passed down through the family, so I don't really know much more about it. I think it's from China. (laughing) APPRAISER: Oh, okay. All right, actually it's from Japan. GUEST: Oh, okay. APPRAISER: Yes, they are made of silver, and then filigree. And then within that they put the translucent cloisonné. GUEST: Oh, okay. APPRAISER: The details are exquisite. So many things to look at. It could look like ivory. GUEST: But you don't think it's ivory. APPRAISER: No, it's bone. GUEST: Oh, okay. APPRAISER: And it was made in late 19th century. GUEST: Okay. APPRAISER: Maybe about 1890s. GUEST: All right. APPRAISER: And it has a name, it has the maker's name. GUEST: It was in Japanese, I guess. APPRAISER: Yes, it's a Japanese name. GUEST: So I couldn't read it. APPRAISER: Yeah, it's a famous maker's name called Hiratsuka. GUEST: Okay. APPRAISER: I think at the auction, on a good day, it should bring $20,000 to $30,000. GUEST: Oh, my gosh! (laughing) Yeah, we weren't expecting that much. Right, yes. Oh wow. Yeah, definitely don't break it. APPRAISER: Don't break, yes.
