01:46ireta's off on another clearance job with two of her go-to heavy lifters andy and david she's
01:54pointed the van to cambridgeshire and st neil's what's in here a bit of everything i think that's
02:01deco i think 1930s they're meeting sisters catherine and allison hopefully someone yeah
02:08for nearly 45 years this house was home to their parents jim and prue i don't know where that came
02:14from that's really lovely our mother in particular she's a collector of everything and she has a lot
02:22of possessions and we were a bit overwhelmed with what to do they've sent an sos to ireta i'm looking
02:29forward seeing what there is i think it's going to be a bit of a mix of all sorts you're
02:34going to be
02:34in your element all right here we go that's lovely what a beautiful spot isn't it awesome and he's
02:47all ready for the sunshine and the tan i'm working on it all right open up i'm going to go
02:51say hi
02:52see you soon hello how are you all right come on in thank you so welcome to our mother's home
03:05oh wow
03:06what a lovely space and yes she's filled it filled it yes definitely and as you can see it's got
03:12a lot
03:12of things my eyes are wandering a lot of pottery yeah a lot of pottery and bits and bobs a
03:20little bit of
03:21silver plate um a lot of jewelry so we'd be interested to hear what you say about them okay
03:27let me have a look around well with a whole house to uncover and a van just aching to be
03:34filled
03:35best start in that packed garage what's in here well that box is a good sign
03:41i mean jacks as a company started in 1795 and they are attributed to bringing croquet to england
03:53croquet was victorian britain's must-do pastime it was a game where men and women could play on equal
03:59terms for the first time and crucially out of earshot of strict chaperones moral panic ensued
04:07critics complained the sport was an excuse to flirt making it of course even more popular
04:15how old is this set it is probably 1980s or so 1990s because it is in a cardboard case
04:24but because it's all complete it will still have following in the auction and hopefully
04:31someone will buy it and enjoy it again get it on the van
04:37i mean if there was a cupboard that i felt in paradise and
04:42there it is without even picking the pieces up i already know exactly which factories they came from
04:49absolute porcelain geek right royal copenhagen is a name in porcelain world that does not need upselling
04:59and their trademark if you like is the edging what's known as lace work
05:06with perfectly pierced holes shaped by hand before each piece is fired in the kiln royal copenhagen
05:13porcelain achieves a lace-like elegance that seems effortless yet requires extraordinary skill
05:20when they first started in 1700s the lace might have been on the corners on particular areas
05:27but then later on they took it all the way around and that is the pieces that you refer to
05:33as full lace
05:34if you had this as just blue and white without the lace pattern on top and the bottom you would
05:41be talking
05:41five ten pounds but with the lace detail there you times it by ten i love that and it looks
05:48like there's
05:49more royal copenhagen here got two candles i have never seen candles but they go really well in hand
05:57with the candlesticks i think they're gonna do well because there's a lot of market for pottery
06:04that is this class and that is that along with all the porcelain in that cupboard there's even more
06:11tableware in the dining room destined for melbourne reckon it's time for andy to finally roll up his
06:18sleeves hey stop sunbathing okay it's been lovely out there i tell you anyway i think this table is ready
06:28for you guys to pack it up there's a lot here andy crunch all of it cherished and used by
06:35katherine and
06:35allison's parents jim and prue look how handsome he is our parents met on the stage they were in a
06:43show
06:44called white horse inn they were both the lead and saw each other and fell in love newlywed couple
06:51as singing principles in the next next week's chapel town show they're famous yeah they married in 1961
07:00and we moved here in 1980 so this was the family home for many years yeah it was a happy
07:06time yes
07:06yeah happy times which lasted until 2019 when the family suffered a painful loss
07:15our dad he died seven eight years ago about a week after he died our mother completely cleared his
07:22room and redecorated it that was her way of grieving he'd gone and she couldn't bear the fact that it
07:30was
07:30just full of all his possessions so she grieved quietly i would say she became a little quieter
07:37um and lost a bit of her confidence and she became very frail yes she did she had parkinson's and
07:46she
07:46died a year ago and so it's very sad since we lost our mother in particular the house it doesn't
07:55feel
07:56like a family home anymore this does it's not it's not the family home it was when we lived here
08:05the sisters have decided it's time to put the home on the market it was always the place we came
08:11back
08:11to yes wasn't it yes but it just doesn't feel like that now and i think it's time to let
08:16it go
08:19oh this is interesting furniture it's a tapley 33 range which is made by a company called beaver and
08:27tapley when he's not helping ireta david deals in antique furniture of every shape and style the
08:34interesting thing about this company there was never an actual mr beaver or mr tapley what it was
08:40just a made-up name to sound really posh genius i think it's in really good condition looks really
08:46good in any setting it could be in a modern home very easily let's see what it does at the
08:51auction but
08:52it's definitely worth putting on the van it's a good thing good spot david how will any cash made
08:59at auction be spent i am going to treat my husband to a premiership game at anfield well not just
09:08him
09:09me as well our father will be spinning in his grave he supported manchester united i married a
09:17liverpool support i'm buying donkey food with mine okay didn't see that one coming i have a plan
09:25to open an animal rescue center um and i want to start with donkeys okay uh ireta we probably need
09:34more things it's a steady procession of items slotting into the van one by one
09:45each bound for derbyshire where they will be properly appraised and valued i've just come
09:51across all this oriental yes what's the connection yes this is from our auntie hilda she was in the
09:59red cross and after the war she went over to japan to look after the injured yeah auntie hilda's
10:08wartime mementos include ma young a chinese strategy game similar to rummy it is one of the
10:15most popular games yes in china but it's not actually that old it was only 1870s oh wow that this
10:22became
10:23a thing i mean this is not an old one no it's quite simple but someone would love it because
10:29it does look
10:30like it's all complete the ma young will be lotted alongside other east asian keepsakes including dolls
10:37parasols and a brass urn i would imagine there's 40 to 60 pounds excellent yeah so that's a quarter of
10:44an anfield ticket wonderful the money's slowly starting to stack up but with the day nearly done
10:51they could really do with a few bigger ticket treasures oh my goodness
11:08oh dinky seven hours in and the team are still digging for anything of value this is lovely interesting
11:17but ireta's got her eye on a bedroom which might just be hiding a sleeper
11:24this is some of my mum's jewelry okay um have you kept the pieces that mean we have something quite
11:31a
11:31bit of it yeah these are the things we we know we won't wear yeah so we'd like someone else
11:36to take
11:37pleasure from them i guess most of this i think my father may have bought for her anything that's blingy
11:44she will have bought for the shows she was in she was a singer she was a singer and an
11:50actress yeah
11:51only amateur i think of all her things this is the hardest because i know i i remember her wearing
11:59everything here and that's what's difficult that's very difficult it must be tough but with dozens of
12:06pieces of jewelry here including an edwardian 18 carat gold ruby and diamond five stone ring
12:12a nine carat gold chain and a nine carat gold diamond and ruby floral brooch
12:19this could stop future donkeys going hungry and allow allison and her hubby to see the reds
12:26your dad had good taste very good taste well he married my mother
12:31and with the bling safely ensconced on the van
12:36the day is done all right ladies come on through wow goodness
12:45does that feel a little bit emptier it's very bare yeah it's slightly overwhelming yes
12:54it's all gone i can feel some very deep breaths being taken i know i'm just holding it together
13:01i will bring tissues with me on the day because i think it is going to be an emotional one
13:05yeah yeah
13:06right i'm going to leave you to it okay i'm going to see you in derbyshire bye bye
13:16this house lost its heart when our mother died
13:20and i think this is just the final chapter of that
13:25it has been an emotional day today they have found it hard to get rid of the items knowing
13:33that then the house will have to go to for them the hardest part is over for me it's just
13:41the
13:41beginning no pressure then just a trip to anfield and some very hungry donkeys riding on it
13:54it would be handy if you could separate it before you got to us
13:57with katherine and allison's parents belonging safely back in melbourne ireta's team begins
14:03researching the items before entering them into the online auction catalogue
14:09this piece has really taken my fancy and stood out to me it's sarah one of ireta's valuers
14:17what's caught your eye then sarah amber is a natural substance that has been highly prized for
14:25thousands and thousands of years and the reason for this is because it takes between two and ten
14:32million years for it to be formed from tree sap and this darker color this what we call cherry amber
14:40is one of the more highly prized the price that i'm putting on this is 100 to 200 pounds occasionally
14:48they can surprise us with the prices they make so i'm hoping for katherine and allison that they do
14:54really really well dinosaur dna not included
15:03art pottery has been around for centuries but the strongest influence in it was around industrial
15:10revolution circa 1900 when people went against the idea of everything being mass produced they wanted
15:18something that was handmade that was one of a kind these pieces are signed r-u-y-s which stands
15:28for rolf
15:29us he wanted to create pieces that were practical things that people would actually use i just love the
15:36shape because you instantly know this is not something that came out of a factory and was mass produced
15:44this is something that was handmade thought about and designed with love we have put them in as two
15:52separate lots the biscuit barrel with an estimate of 30 to 50 pounds and the bowl with an estimate of
15:5945
15:5945 to 65 and i am sure that there will be someone who will want these for their table
16:12very good okay irita's auctions take place in melbourne's community hall the assembly rooms just up the
16:20street from her office we've got a table to put up over there as ever irita likes to make sure

16:35strange really i'm really looking forward to katherine and allison's auction i think there will be a fair
16:41amount of money coming from the jewelry because we found some lovely little gems in all of that

22:38tell myself that through the whole process is how much our mother would have loved it i really wish she

23:01irita and andy are off on their next job we're heading to the land of oaks sorry that's it you
23:10got it
23:11it's like the first great place of kings and queens and the english wealthy well you two will fit right
23:18in
23:18for me it's the oak trees that does that yeah it feels a little bit more like home because oak
23:23trees
23:24in latvia are tree of power so when i come to surrey i just feel empowered i suppose in a
23:32way
23:32look out sorry irita's in town and she means business
23:39look at the face
23:40today irita is meeting elaine who lives with her five dogs in the village of homebry st mary
23:49i've been in this house for 31 years and i've asked irita to come in and move certain items they
23:59come
23:59from my aunt and uncle and my mum and dad a few bits of pottery jewelry i don't know how
24:06valuable
24:07they are but i have no one to leave them to and i don't know what to do basically
24:15right i think it's somewhere here oh my goodness what an amazing place to live
24:21check out your turning abilities ah you're doing all right beautiful
24:34yeah the dogs hi rita come on in lovely to meet you
24:42isn't it beautiful it's a beautiful house i can tell why the dogs love it look at that garden
24:48are you okay with me having a little browse around and see what i can spot yeah because i can
24:53see to
24:53the dogs then okay all right i'll see you a bit later yeah fab with a house full of items
25:01and just
25:01one day on the clock it's straight down to business i wonder whether she wants to part without isn't that
25:08a lovely piece of furniture like you can just settle in it and that is exactly where the name comes
25:16from
25:16because these are called settles and they are multi-functional pieces of furniture not only
25:22these were made for sitting they were made for storing items this is very much that late 1800s
25:30kind of look with a carved detailing on their arms the settles back features foliate or leaf-like motifs
25:37an art form that can be traced back to greek and roman furniture in the fifth century bc
25:44a popular design throughout the ages since the victorians loved it and those arms they end in
25:52grotesque faces known as mascarons because nothing says welcome like a bit of gothic revival terror
25:59it's a lovely bit of furniture it has character it has style and it's practical you could have just
26:07described yourself irita i could actually see that in my house get your wallet out on auction day
26:13and it's yours while andy cracks on with the loading
26:20what is in here
26:23something else has caught irita's eye oh i love photograph albums like this wonder elaine are you there
26:32yeah yeah i found a box do you mind coming and having a look at it there's a lovely photograph
26:38album in there with all sorts austria switzerland italy i grew up in london with my mum and dad and
26:48i was
26:49very close to my aunt and uncle and they didn't have children of their own so it was just me
26:56and four
26:56adults who were my life so i was very spoiled we had so many good times together and had happy
27:04times
27:05great holidays and i loved it elaine grew up got a career in admin before becoming a dog groomer
27:13and stayed close with her loving family
27:18but as the wheels of time ground on i lost them all my uncle died in 1995
27:28my dad died in 2002 my aunt in 2008 and then my mum had kidney failure
27:39so she came to live with me here in surrey and then she died here
27:48over those years everything from elaine's family became hers much like this box of photos
27:54i'm guessing that's all the travels yeah oh that's nice that is an itinerary these were made by
28:02rac the royal automobile club an rac itinerary was a pre-planned driving holiday in print listing routes
28:12stops hotels and highlights first produced in the 1920s these detailed guides help drivers plan trips
28:19long before the internet did it for you it has the tiniest detail in it exactly how many kilometers
28:29are in between each location what signs you need to look for this is really cool and having the
28:35photographs to go with that this is a little bit of social history what do you think should we sell
28:43those absolutely okay and i'll keep looking see what else i can find hmm it's interesting but let's be honest
28:51it's not bringing in many readies talking of which what does elaine want to do with any money made
28:57this is why i got in touch with irita i had this put in in february and i just run
29:06out of money to
29:08finish it off it's just over three thousand i believe that's the target three grand irita i've been
29:16around the house and i have to say there isn't a lot there right these are the bits that are
29:22coming
29:22and at this moment in time i'm really worried we might not raise enough money for her to be able
29:28to do what she wants to do with it yep that's what i thought all right that's a two-man
29:33job
29:36no i don't think so you best get finding this is a pure classic it is what's known as non
29:44-king cargo
29:45items that were discovered from under the ocean resurfacing from the deep in 1985 this porcelain
29:55made waves worldwide it comes from the nanking cargo which was being carried by a dutch east
30:02india company ship that sank in 1752 just after leaving the port city of nanking explorer michael hatcher
30:11found the wreck in the south china sea hauling up over 150 000 pieces when christie's amsterdam put
30:19the treasure under the hammer bidders went wild and the spoils sailed past 10 million dollars
30:26today collectors prize these pieces not just for their age but for their story it really is
30:33a piece of fascinating history and there are so many people who will want it not because of what it
30:40looks like but because of what it is and where it came from now while holding it i have just
30:45spotted that there's a tiny tiny little nick on the edge just there they will affect the value
30:54without the chip it would have been 40 to 60 pounds but as it is with the chip i think
30:59i'm going to have
31:00to place a 20 to 40 pound estimate on it who knows where in the world this will end up
31:07over the next three hours andy and ireta lift stack and pack it's one of those days that i feel
31:15like
31:16a spare head would be handy but the hunt's still on for the next big catch
31:23look what i found upstairs barbie really is an iconic thing these classic dolls first tottered onto
31:32the scene in 1959 makers mattel have flogged over a billion since it's said that three barbies are sold
31:40every second not bad for someone who can't bend her elbows i'm guessing these have been elaine's dolls
31:51my dad spot me rotten so he bought me a barbie doll and hamley's in london and i have loads
32:00of clothes that
32:01go with her i'm in the position now where i need to pass on to other people they've got to
32:10go they've
32:11got to go i haven't got anyone to leave them to there are clothes there are little booklets sometimes
32:19in fact there's more money in the clothing and accessories than there are in the dolls themselves
32:25elaine's childhood collection includes vintage midge and skipper barbie dolls one of which looks very
32:32familiar along with a selection of wigs clothes and accessories honestly this makes me excited
32:43oh don't forget this that's the treasure
32:51this is something that every girl needs in her handbag a little compact look at these stratton is
33:01probably their best known compact company out there in the world british firm stratton began
33:09trading in 1860 the birmingham-based business then known as stratenoid originally produced knitting
33:15needles it wasn't until 1920s or so that they started producing things like this in 1940s they created
33:28this self-opening mechanism that protected the powder and it didn't break your nails opening what a godsend
33:37that is what it did absolutely genius what we have here is not the best selection really
33:46i think we might have to combine them with something else to sell grouped with other pieces including
33:52a 1920s policeman truncheon and whistles as you do iret has made a lot worth maybe 30 quid
34:00well every little helps look at this there's a bit of all sorts in here hello some fantastic jewelry yes
34:09go on
34:10go on i think that might have just saved the day lovely rings in there amazing news this haul of
34:19jewelry
34:19including this 22 carat gold wedding band that belonged to elaine's mum always nice to see and her
34:26nine carat gold hinged bangle could make a lot of difference at elaine's auction that is just so nice
34:32i think i'm just gonna have to send andy up to take it off you know when you need a
34:38nap on the way home
34:40yeah you can go in the back on one of these and with the last of the items finally on
34:45the van
34:46all loaded up all loaded it's time to call it a day what do we think that's fantastic
34:53a weight off my shoulders it's been a pleasure it's been a pleasure
35:01we have not managed to find a great deal today the worry is there whether we're going to be able
35:08to
35:08make enough money for the repairs that elaine actually wants to do for the skylight jump in andy
35:16you've taken upwards of 50 items today ireta you haven't had time to fully look at all of them
35:22bye i suspect you will get a few more valuable surprises when you get back to derbyshire you'll see
35:39back at melbourne elaine's things are brought inside so the process of researching lotting
35:46and photographing them all for the online auction catalogue can begin
35:49so you see the runners outside that's it this is interesting seen better days it's definitely had
35:58a life porter david loves his furniture it holds a secret this is a really good example of metamorphic
36:07furniture which means changing form changing shape metamorphic furniture had its big moment in the early
36:151800s they were the original transformers minus the explosions london makers morgan and sanders churned
36:23out chairs that flipped into library steps essential for aristocrats scaling ever taller bookcases and then
36:30victorian parents had the ultimate multitasker metamorphic high chairs like this it's even got wheels at the
36:37bottom so it can move along it's just an interesting piece of social history and it's lasted a long
36:43time this is you know 150 years old and it's still going strong the chair will go to auction alongside
36:51an old doggy toy with a combined estimate of 10 to 20 pounds let's hope it finds a new home
37:00now elaine had quite a lot of dolls and dolls clothing and i'm excited about elaine's barbies they have
37:08been getting loads of attention in the online catalogue even i want to bid on that because i have always
