"From a pair of rare eighteenth-century chairs found in a chicken coop.to a stunning silver-mounted secretary-bookcase uncovered in Paris.to the small mahogany card table bought at a yard sale for twenty-five dollars that turned out to be a masterpiece of American furniture worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, antique experts Leigh and Leslie Keno now show you how even the least likely place can harbor a cache of.hidden treasure. Since childhood, identical twins Leigh and Leslie Keno, familiar to millions through their appearances on Antiques Roadshow, have devoted their lives to the field of antique American furniture and have had a passion for discovering unexpected rarities. When they were teens they went to flea markets with their parents; today they are sought out by wealthy collectors and are at home in the world's top auction houses. Here, in this stunning volume, the brothers describe more than a dozen of their most fascinating treasure hunts and extraordinary discoveries, demonstrating that even today rare and precious antiques can be found anywhere. Accompanied by a colorful cast of characters including colleagues, connoisseurs, amateur collectors, craftsmen - and even a charlatan or two - Leigh and Leslie take you behind the scenes of the world of antiques, reliving the thrill of the hunt and revealing the secrets of their trade. Along with their experience and expertise, they share their love and appreciation for fine craftsmanship and beauty. You, too, will hear the pounding of the blacksmith's hammer haunting the beaten surface of an iron hinge, see the sculptural and sensual curves in the lines of a carved chair, and be seduced by the rare, exotic depths of plum-toned woods. Hidden Treasures will inspire you to take a second look at your own neglected family heirlooms and dust-covered relics. Lavishly designed, filled with rich full-color photographs, and offering a bibliography and a glossary, it is both a joy to look at and read and a useful reference.a book that is in itself a most valuable find." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
