‘Bares für Rares’ Stays Strong With Big Jewelry Sale, On‑Air Auction Gaffe and Flip Stories

Weekend broadcasts posted double‑digit market shares across main and spin‑off shows.

Overview

  • A 6.67‑carat Art‑Deco brooch drew a 7,000–8,000 euro expert estimate and sold in the dealer room for 6,300 euros to Julian Schmitz‑Avila after brisk bidding.
  • A Bauhaus‑era Kaiser idell lamp that had drawn an 80‑euro outside offer was identified as a Christian Dell design, valued at 1,500–2,000 euros, and sold for 1,420 euros to Jan Čížek.
  • An on‑camera slip ended a bidding battle when a seller accepted 250 euros for a vintage vulcanizing kettle, prompting Roman Runkel to protest that the auction had not finished.
  • DWDL figures show strong weekend reach for the franchise, with ‘Händlerstücke’ at 12.5% share, ‘Lieblingsstücke’ at 14.1%, and new offshoot ‘Waldis Welt’ at 12.3%.
  • Dealer follow‑ups showcased refurbishment plays and target margins, from Jos van Katwijk’s upgraded daybed to Wolfgang Pauritsch turning a silver enamel plate into a weather station and Walter Lehnertz refitting a music‑playing pram into a market stand.
