THROWBACK: Once Upon a Bowl
Manage episode 403644891 series 1912390
If you ever start to feel like history is abstract, spend a little time with an object or two that were actually there. For instance, a silver bowl and a pair of candlesticks that once belonged to New York grandees Pieter and Elizabeth Delancey, which suddenly reappeared recently after being lost for three hundred years. In this special rerun of one of Curious Objects’ most popular episodes, host Benjamin Miller revisits the obscure journey made by these three storied objects, with the help of Debra Bach, curator of decorative arts and special exhibitions at the New-York Historical Society, Tim Martin, owner of S. J. Shrubsole, and Delancey heirs Dan and Alice Ayers.
