What kind of items is the Canadian Antiques Roadshow looking for?
Obviously, we’re very interested in items that reflect the history and culture of Canada – but of course the Roadshow will accept and appraise any antique. Bring something you want to know more about or something that you find curious. You will be able to talk to some of the most knowledgeable people in the country, who can identify, date and advise you about your object(s) – so make the most of it. Bring parts of things too: if you want an opinion about a tea service, bring the teapot and a few other pieces, not the whole lot. Or maybe the drawer from a dressing table will be enough (together with a photograph) for the expert to go on.
