BBC Antiques Roadshow guest speechless as £1 vase bought at boot sale makes staggering value
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Antiques Roadshow's Eric Knowles was left gobsmacked when a glass vase, purchased for a mere £1 at a car boot sale, was valued at an astonishing amount. A woman from Ayrshire, who wished to remain anonymous, brought the vase to the BBC show for evaluation, not anticipating the staggering valuation she would receive. The vase was identified as a 1929 piece by famed French designer René Lalique, after being scrutinised by experts at Dumfries House near Cumnock, and was valued at a minimum of £25,000. The five-inch-tall glass vase was crafted using an ancient technique known as cire perdue. This complex method involves creating a wax model that is encased in plaster, then melted away and replaced with molten glass, with the plaster mould being broken away once the glass cools to reveal the final creation. The market value for Lalique pieces has seen a significant increase in recent years. Antiques Roadshow expert Eric Knowles shared his excitement with the Irvine Herald: "It's wonderful to find treasures like this beautiful vase during the programme's filming," reports the Express. (Image: BBC) He continued: "It certainly gives us all a buzz and we thoroughly enjoy meeting people everywhere we go. I've been waiting over 25 years for such a piece to come in, and this was the stuff of dreams. They'd dumped it in the attic after the plant in it died and were about to throw it away. We had a lot of clouds in Dumfries, but this was the cloud with a silver lining. It's worth at least £25,000." The vase ultimately fetched a whopping £32,450 at auction, exceeding its previous valuation by £7,000. This follows a rerun of the beloved BBC programme, which aired on Sunday, June 8. Viewers were transported to Brodie Castle in Scotland, where a parade of treasures awaited appraisal. Among them was a man who wowed Richard with a 1960s Rolex GMT-Master, inherited from his uncle. Richard, peering intently at the watch, informed the owner: "All Rolex collectors refer to these things by their reference number," and "You know as well as I do, because it says so on the dial, that it's a GMT-Master." (Image: BBC) Richard explained: "It's the reference 1675, which is the classic GMT-Master. When you said 60s, I think we could fairly safely say 1960 to 1961, so that all fits in." Upon closer inspection, Richard was thrilled to find the watch unaltered, noting that many watches are often modified during servicing, much to collectors' dismay. He said: "They would've changed the bezel and they would've changed the dial with an upgrade," before adding:"You would've had it back thinking, 'Oh, it looks like new'. Collectors hate that, it's absolutely original, spot-on." The expert told the owner: "It's a Rolex product, of course, but it says 'Made in the USA'. So perhaps he specified that he did not want the oyster bracelet; he wanted a jubilee bracelet, and they put this one on for him. "Which sort of detracts from it a little bit, probably detracts from it by a couple of thousand pounds." However, Richard had some good news as well, revealing that the watch is worth "£12,000 to £15,000." You can catch Antiques Roadshow every Sunday at 8pm on BBC1.

Ukraine War: Russian drones damage Kyiv in 'massive' attack after prisoner swap
A "massive" Russian drone and missile attack hit several regions in Ukraine overnight, leaving 12 dead and dozens injured. Ukrainian authorities report that Russian drone attacks killed three children in the Kyiv region in the early hours of Sunday morning. Ukraine's first Deputy Prime Minister, Yulia Svyrydenko, said: "Russia's targets are clear: homes, families, children." The capital was not the only place hit by Russian drone attacks overnight. In Mykolaiv, Ukraine's ninth-largest city, a residential building was hit. Local authorities report that a man in his 70s was killed. Footage from Odesa showed emergency responders trying to extinguish fires as smoke billowed from cars and houses. Ukraine's air force said it had shot down 45 cruise missiles and took out 266 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) since 20:40 local time (17:40 GMT) on Saturday. Advice for residents still in Kyiv is to remain in shelters. The city's Mayor, former boxer Vitaliy Klitschko, described it as a "massive" attack. He said: "Explosions in the city. Air defence forces are working. The capital is under attack by enemy UAVs. Do not neglect your safety! Stay in shelters!" The attacks came as Russia and Ukraine took part in prisoner swaps agreed after talks between the two sides in Turkey. The exchange took place at the border with Belarus in northern Ukraine, according to a Ukrainian official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak publicly. The released Russians were taken to Belarus for medical treatment, the Russian Defence Ministry said. As the freed men entered the medical facility on Friday, people holding signs and photos of their relatives shouted names or brigade numbers, seeking any news of a loved one. The exchange comes after the first in-person talks between the two sides in three years, held in Turkey. Earlier this week, US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a two-hour phone conversation to discuss a U.S.-backed proposal for a ceasefire in Ukraine. Trump described the call as having gone "very well" and stated that Russia and Ukraine would "immediately start" negotiations aimed at securing a ceasefire and bringing the war to an end. However, Putin has only committed to working with Ukraine on drafting a "memorandum" concerning a "potential future peace," and has not agreed to the proposed 30-day ceasefire.
