APPRAISER: When you came in with this, I thought you had two pieces. And then you put the big bowl on top of the little bowl, and it made sense. Let's turn it over and look at the mark, which you probably did. Both pieces are marked.
GUEST: Mm-hmm.
APPRAISER: If we look this mark up...
GUEST: Mm-hmm.
APPRAISER: ...in a book of marks on English pottery, we're not going to find it. We're gonna find something that looks like this...
GUEST: Uh-huh.
APPRAISER: And we're going to find the word "ironstone," which was an invention of the Victorians. They made a lot of this kind of thing out of ironstone ware.
GUEST: Okay.
APPRAISER: But someone's made up this mark.
GUEST: Wow.
APPRAISER: They've made it up to look like an old Victorian English mark. It's actually been made in Southeast Asia.
GUEST: Oh.
APPRAISER: I'm not sure exactly where it was made. Possibly Taiwan, we think.
GUEST: Oh.
APPRAISER: But it's been made as a reproduction. And if I'm putting a value on it, I'm going to say $200 to $300, or maybe more.
GUEST: Oh, okay.
APPRAISER: You might find somebody who's willing to spend more money on it...
GUEST: Right.
APPRAISER: ...because it's a big item and it's got a good look.
GUEST: Right.
APPRAISER: Somebody offered you $800?
GUEST: $800. My husband is probably going to kill me because I didn't take the $800.
