A Special Story of Antiques Lover
2

• People have always been fascinated by The
  Antiques Roadshow. Long lines of hopeful people
  clutching their treasured antique waiting to find
  that their antique is among the rarest antiques
  in the world. That antique had pride of place in
  their cabinet or mantel piece for years and been
  handed down from a great aunt or a long forgotten
  legacy. Frequent visits to antique stores over
  the years had allowed them compare their antique
  with similar antiques and estimate a value
  however inaccurately. It is a brave step to
  reveal their treasure before the TV audience to
  have its merits and defects discussed and to find
  that it was not an original antique but an old
  reproduction.

Some viewers of The Antiques Roadshow play games
guessing the value of each featured antique.
Others who are avid antique collectors or who
have antique stores have a more discerning
professional interest. And then there are those
who suddenly see a featured antique and it lights
the flame of collecting in an instance.

Many years ago The Antique Roadshow featured one
of those rare French antiques, a beautiful
platinum lorgnette with a diamond and sapphire
encrusted handle. It began a life quest for one
viewer to find a similar antique lorgnette with
the elegant handle and those sparkling diamonds
and misty sapphires from the jungles of Burma.
She determined that she would find an antique
lorgnette just like it and she searched every
antique stores she found all over the world but
particularly those specializing in French
antiques. She searched her favorite online
antique stores regularly. Her search was in vain
but along the way she found other lorgnettes, not
quite as beautiful, which she purchased. In a few
years she had acquired over thirty antique
lorgnettes. Her life changed and she is now a
celebrity which gives her ample opportunities to
wear her lorgnettes on many high profile
occasions.

She says, They have the wow factor. She can
always turn heads when she flicks open an antique
lorgnette in her favorite restaurant. She enjoys
her antique collection and even after all these
years she still searches the antique stores for
french antiques and that elusive antique
lorgnette she saw on The Antiques Roadshow. She
was touched with the angel dust of collecting and
it energized her life and made her work harder to
afford those beautiful lorgnettes. She knows
antique dealers all over the world and is
familiar with every antique store in all the
major cities. Her lorgnettes are her passion and
life is her passion. She shall remain nameless
because her name is so unusual that if I used her
first name, then her private passion would no
longer be hers to treasure. She still watches The
Antique Roadshow with excitement just in case
that special antique lorgnette reappears and
while she watches she always wears a lorgnette
which she twirls in her fingers dreaming her
dream of finding that special one.
