GUEST: Well, my aunt, when she
passed, left a few things, and
each of her nieces and nephews
were allowed to select some
things. I loved them because
they, they're mechanical, and
you wind them up, and then
different things happen in each
one of them, so, that was why
I have always been fascinated
by them and just wanted
to know a little bit more.
APPRAISER: They are made by
Henry Dankner & Sons. They
were a family that had escaped
Nazi Hungary.
GUEST: Oh, wow.
APPRAISER: Re-established in
the New York jewelry market in
the 1950s, and filed a patent
for these in 1965.
Which is your favorite?
GUEST: You know, I kind of
loved the heart, which goes
up and down when you wind it.
APPRAISER: Can you
show me how it works?
GUEST: And then... Sure.
APPRAISER: Wow.
GUEST: And this one, I think,
has the most motion in it
with the, with the horses.
APPRAISER: It's a great
collection that's enough
to make an instant
bracelet for somebody.
GUEST: (laughs)
APPRAISER: And if they
were coming to auction,
I believe they would
do an auction estimate
of $4,000 to $8,000.
GUEST: Oh, my goodness,
wow. Wow, thanks, Aunt
Alice. That's great.
