The BBC show Antiques Roadshow has a knack for unearthing hidden treasures, but Sunday’s episode from Belfast’s Botanic Gardens delivered a moment of pure magic and emotion.
A guest—who brought along her grandmother’s jewelry and a vintage photograph of the elegant matriarch—was left in tears after learning the jaw-dropping value of her heirlooms.
Jewelry expert Susan Rumfitt was presented with the guest’s delicate diamond brooch, a pearl-encrusted lavaliere pendant, and a black-and-white portrait of the glamorous grandmother.
