Two rare Faberge flowers are expected to fetch £500K at auction

A pair of ultra-rare Fabergé flowers are expected to fetch a staggering half a MILLION pounds at auction - after they were found wrapped in an old tea towel.

The elegant ornaments had been stored inside a shoe box for 40 years until the owner spotted one that was valued for £1 million while watching Antiques Roadshow.

She had inherited them from her family who had "lived in high circles in society" and took them along to a free valuation day at Hanson's Auctioneers in London.
