Episode 1 — The Fake that Is or Isn’t
On ANTIQUES ROADSHOW, an appraisal is usually the final word — but what happens when a guest brings her own receipts?
In 2011, an Atlanta guest presented a brilliant royal blue enamel egg she hoped was a Fabergé masterpiece. Appraiser Sebastian Clarke wasn’t convinced, labeling the treasure, acquired by the guest for $15,000, a “Faux-berge” fake. The matter seemed closed until a second, conflicting appraisal was revealed. Was Sebastian right all along, or had he made a "royal blunder"? Join host Adam Monahan as he dives into the chaos of the Russian Revolution, tracks down a world-leading Fabergé expert, and cracks the case of this irksome egg.
