GUEST: This is a table that my father got in 1955.

He got it from Liberace.

He worked in Liberace's house in the Hollywood Hills.

APPRAISER: It's an American late empire, early Victorian marble-top pier table made of mahogany.

In terms of value, a-as a piece of American furniture, the news isn't great.

So if it were to come to auction, it pains me to say this...

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: ...but it's probably only about $150 to $300.

GUEST: Okay, all right.

Yeah, fair enough.

APPRAISER: So, fair enough.

GUEST: Yeah, all right.

APPRAISER: But knowing that it was owned by Liberace, you know...

GUEST: Okay.

APPRAISER: ...I'm not a specialist in the field of entertainment, But I have a great colleague...

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: ...Laura Woolley.

Let's talk with Laura and see what she has to say about it.

APPRAISER 2: All right.

I don't know anything that, that Andrew just told you.

Empire style, late Victorian.

I don't know anything about that.

GUEST: Good.

Me-me as well.

(laughs) APPRAISER 2: But what I do know is people love Liberace.

When Liberace died, they needed, like, a football stadium-worth of space to sell everything he owned.

He had a black belt in shopping.

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: So it's not uncommon for us to see Liberace decorative arts and furniture...

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: ...and household goods at auction.

This is a nicer piece-- the lyre form at the bottom...

GUEST: Gosh.

APPRAISER: ...is great because you associate that with music.

Also, you have a photo of him with it.

GUEST: Absolutely.

APPRAISER: So that's a really important thing.

GUEST: Yeah Most of the stuff that's come up for auction, we don't have a picture of Liberace with it.

APPRAISER: Okay.

Yeah.

APPRAISER: So the fact that you have that picture means this would probably, at auction, the estimate would be more like $2,000 to $3,000.

GUEST: Oh, wow, all right.

Oh, that's amazing.

Thank you.

APPRAISER: I have better news than my colleague Andrew.

GUEST: Absolutely!

Oh my gosh.

Wherever he is, forget him.

No, I'm just kidding.
