The manor was Brian Wilson. The nine-inch-tall sculpture, made of Tudor-era oak, was sold to Andrew Potter, a Brian car dealer, for a pittance.
Bryan thought the sculpture was a little broken and might be on fire once more. He sold the art for 5 million.
Christopher Smith, the hall’s chief executive, learned of the loss of the antique in 2020 when he decided to inspect the mansion. It was during the examination that Bryan realized what had happened to him.
But Bryan told investigator Richard Lever that a burglary had taken place in the mansion and that a tractor and the artifact had been lost. The police investigation revealed that the theft had not taken place.
Christopher Bryan was fired following realizing the true nature of the incident. Bryan has approached the court once morest this.
Meanwhile, Andrew Potter tried to sell the artifact at auction, but was blocked by Seyford Hall representatives. In any case, this nonsense of the employee is now being discussed on social media as well.
