And we collect mostly glass, so we don't really know a lot about all the pottery.
I know it's amphora, and it's an Art Nouveau piece.
APPRAISER: Well, let's take a look at the marks.
We have two sets of marks; you have the printed mark which tells you Turn-Teplitz, which is very important, this is actually one of the premier manufacturers of this type of amphora.
Amphora was made by a number of manufacturers.
And this is an Austrian example, very, very nicely done.
And then there's a second mark, that doesn't show up very, very well, but it's right up at the top there, and that's that impressed mark that actually says "amphora."
GUEST: Oh, okay, I didn't know what it said.
APPRAISER: Beautifully decorated, really what pops off the page to me is this wonderful butterfly that was here.
GUEST: Right.
APPRAISER: And beautifully designed with this; it's all reticulated, and pierced to give an impression that you really do have an Art Nouveau style tree.
Now, do you recall what you paid for it?
GUEST: Um, yes, $375.
APPRAISER: How many years ago was that?
GUEST: Oh, about five years ago.
APPRAISER: I can see, in a well-advertised auction, that this would sell somewhere in the range of about $2,000 to $3,000.
That good?
GUEST: Well, I'm not that's very good.
I'm not selling it, but that's very good.
APPRAISER: Excellent.
