APPRAISER: Okay.
GUEST: My family lived in Boston in the 1700s.
APPRAISER: Okay, it's a Boston Queen Anne side chair made of walnut, classic 1740 Boston chair.
What's wrong with this picture?
Look at that back.
You know what happened?
GUEST: No.
APPRAISER: Somebody took it apart and put it back upside down and backwards.
GUEST: Oh.
APPRAISER: So that splat, this part, should be up here, and that part should be down there, and this is the back side of it.
If you look around at the back, you see how nicely finished that is in the back?
GUEST: Oh, yeah.
APPRAISER: That should be on the other, the other side.
GUEST: Okay.
APPRAISER: And it'll look a lot, lot better.
And are there more chairs from the set in your house?
GUEST: No-- uh... APPRAISER: Just this one.
GUEST: Just this.
APPRAISER: Just...
Okay.
GUEST: There's one that sort of matches it, but not really.
APPRAISER: Okay, so switch it around.
You get, you'll have to have a cabinetmaker really...
I would just leave it-- what the heck, right?
It's a great story.
GUEST: Yeah.
APPRAISER: And it's worth $1,500 to $2,000.
GUEST: Okay.
APPRAISER: Even with the splat upside down, okay?
GUEST: Okay.
