Thawing Out Humpday Triviola

What a difference a week makes. Last week I posted the question during a blizzard. Today the sun is out and the mountains of snow are turning into hills. Come on spring!

So ok, The French have a revolution. Afterwards, in response of the outcome of the revolution, certain elements that may have been seen on French furniture disappeared. What were they?

Could one of them have been the fleur-de-leis (sp?)? That was the symbol of royalty. Just saw that from the Antique Road Show night before last. I figure that one antique should be researching other antiques.

Darn you for watching that show Lynn!! ;-)

Yes, the answer is Fleur De Lis. After the revolution that symbol of French Royalty was often removed.

Don't feel bad. You've stumped me more times than I care to remember, especially with designers. Also, two years ago, the Roadshow was in Reno and I went to find out that the map that I paid $60 for was worth $60 and the antique pocket watch my mother sent me was worth $200.

I maybe going to the Roadshow in Orland June 30th. I applied for tickets. We have a painting we think is worth $20,000,000. But maybe only $10.00
