A Creek Indian sash, the centuries-old lost-wax
method of bronze sculpture casting and a missing a 250-year-old
William Stoddard high chest.
Correspondent Clay Reynolds finds out why an owner is struggling
over what to do with an extremely rare circa 1818 Creek Indian sash
appraised for $6,000 to $8,000 at ANTIQUES ROADSHOW in Savannah,
Georgia. Later, sparks fly when Clay learns about the centuries-old
lost-wax method of bronze sculpture casting at the Modern Art
Foundry in Queens, New York. Then Clay and expert Gloria Lieberman
have a heart-to-heart about love- and friendship-inspired jewelry
designs. Finally, appraiser Dean Failey confides the story of the
missing masterpiece that tugs at his heartstrings - a 250-year-old
William Stoddard high chest, crafted in Oyster Bay, Long Island.
Long misidentified as a Newport, Rhode Island, high chest, after
its true identity (and value of up to $100,000) was discovered, the
piece mysteriously disappeared.
