NEW YORK (AP) — Chef, cookbook author, and TV host Carla Hall has always wondered about an antique wooden highchair her family has long cherished.
What is its history? How much is it worth?
She finally got answers when PBS’ “Antiques Roadshow” visited her Washington, D.C., home. It turns out that the highchair is not hand-carved and dates to between 1880-1920. It’s worth only about $100.
Even so, Hall still adores it. She and her husband are remodeling their home in a more modern style, but the highchair is staying.
“This will still be front and center somewhere in our modern house,” she said after the TV visit. “I’m not selling anything.”
