He Grew Up Afraid of This Bear… Now It Might Change His Life | Antiques Roadshow Australia

All valuations were correct at the time of broadcast. This rare bear stand that was a family heirloom gets an absolutely shocking value of six figures, a first for Antiques Roadshow Australia! It was designed and dated to 1888, in a small town in Switzerland called Reims, made by Black Forest Furniture and from linden wood.

Filmed at the National Trust Norman Lindsay Gallery and Museum in the Blue Mountains in 2025.
