APPRAISER: These certainly look like porcelain. Do you agree?

GUEST: Yes, I know.

APPRAISER: They're actually glass.

GUEST: Yes.

APPRAISER: So can you tell me where you bought these?

GUEST: I bought them at an auction about 20 years ago in Cincinnati.

APPRAISER: And do you collect this type of thing, or...

GUEST: Yes, I'm a glass collector.

APPRAISER: A glass collector. We have here continental vases or urns in beautiful bronze stands. There's marks on the bottom. I'm going to lift this up. It might be a little bit heavy. Yeah, there's that base. There we go. And if we turn it over, we can see the date "January 1872," which I totally agree with that date. This is late 19th century, roughly.

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: But we also see part of a mark. And you believe that mark is...?

GUEST: Baccarat.

APPRAISER: Baccarat. I am saying continental because we can't see the entire mark. Now, one of them has some damage, and it's been restored over here.

GUEST: That's right.

APPRAISER: The damage is near the top, and it's almost a little V-shaped piece that was out, and it's extremely hard to see it. You bought them though as a damaged piece?

GUEST: Yes.

APPRAISER: You would never separate the pair. You have trees over here that match trees over here. It's a courting scene, the ladies and the gentlemen courting. I feel they're French, very good chance that they're Baccarat. But to actually authenticate them as Baccarat, I would want to reserve that for a little more research.

GUEST: Yeah, that's fine.

APPRAISER: Now what did you pay for them?

GUEST: $250. For the two.

APPRAISER: It's my opinion that as a pair, I would put a retail value of $5,000.

GUEST: I'm delighted with that, okay.

APPRAISER: Pretty good, I'd say.

GUEST: For a $250 investment.

APPRAISER: For $250, pretty good. If they were perfect, it'd be close to double that price. If we could prove that they're Baccarat, there would be a percentage change, 20% more, 30% more, something like that.

GUEST: Okay.
