The ZDF classic "Bares for Rares" is always good for a surprise.
This time, too, the expectations of a saleswoman were exceeded.
It often happened that the
sellers
were surprised at the junk show * led by the presenter Horst Lichter.
This time it hit Sabine Sauer from the southern Ruhr area, who
wanted to
turn
her
ice cube container into cash
.
She bought the sale object from the 1970s in a
second-hand shop
, as she said in advance.

The art dealer
Sven Deutschmanek took a
closer look at the item in advance.

In cooperation with the
designer Hans Turnwald
, not only the golden pineapple was created, but also a pear.
The ice cube trays were mainly found in the closets from the 1970s.
The
brass object
was not only available in gold, but also in silver, as the art dealer reveals.
