A necklace nearly taken to a car boot sale with a £15 price tag was later identified as a rare South Pacific treasure; expected to fetch just £60 to £100, it sold for £99,000 at auction
Analysis pending
A necklace nearly taken to a car boot sale with a £15 price tag turned out to be a rare 18th-century Polynesian treasure worth almost £100,000. The piece, made from human hair and sperm whale bone and originating from the Austral Islands in the South Pacific, had been found during a house clearance. At Ewbank’s auctioneers in Surrey, it sold for £99,000, far above its original estimate of £60 to £100, according to Antique Collecting and the Antiques Trade Gazette.
Nearly lost at a car boot saleThe necklace was brought to Ewbank’s by the owner of a house clearance firm, who had no idea of its significance. It was part of a batch of items that had been priced at £15 and was destined for the A3 car boot sale opposite the auction rooms. At the last moment, the owner changed his mind and took the necklace to Ewbank’s instead. That decision transformed the fate of an object that might otherwise have been sold for a few pounds at a roadside stall, as per the reports.

Google’s order for thousands of cars for its Waymo taxi service has left many in the US government worried
Analysis pending
Google’s Waymo has ordered thousands of vehicles built in China. The Alphabet-owned robotaxi company plans to import electric vans made by Zeekr, a brand of China’s Geely Holding Group, as it expands its driverless taxi service across the US. Waymo is reportedly on track to import about 5,100 vehicles by the end of 2026, more than doubling a fleet that has largely relied on Jaguar I-Pace SUVs.
According to a New York Post report, the arrangement has worried US lawmakers and safety experts because the vehicles come from China while operating cameras, sensors, and autonomous systems on American roads. Waymo says the imported vehicles contain no Chinese connected-car technology and receive their software and sensors in Arizona.
