ANTIQUES ROADSHOW: Big And Little

Published December 16, 2009 at 12:54 PM PST
An over-sized, Northwest Coast Indian-style dance mask, carted to "ROADSHOW" by its hopeful owner. Appraiser John Buxton admires the decorative piece, but regretfully points out the mask would be too big and heavy to use in a dance — and actually is a reproduction with a value of $1,500 to $2,000.

“Big & Little” proves good things come in small — and gigantic — packages. ANTIQUES ROADSHOW looks high and low through its archive of appraisals for unusually teeny treasures and outsize objects, from an heirloom five-carat diamond ring valued at $40,000 to $50,000 to a wall-sized painting by noted American artist John Fery, estimated to be worth $20,000 to $30,000.
