The production of "Lupin" was halted for a few days as a result of the robbery and the filming resumed on Monday, 28 February.

The incident did not have any effect on the production, cast or crew.

 "We can confirm the antiques have been stolen and we hope that they are found and returned safely," Netflix spokesperson confirms Variety.

"Over 350 antiques were stolen including: A replica of an '1897 Imperial Coronation Fabergé' coach egg. 12 sets of silver candelabra, seven gold candelabra, a clock face from a William IV grandfather clock, some Russian religious icons, a 10-piece silver dressing table and St Louis gilt crystal glassware and decanters," the spokesperson informed.

Set director of "The Crown" Alison Harvey told the Gazette, "The items stolen are not necessarily in the best condition and therefore of limited value for resale. However, they are valuable as pieces to the UK film industry."

However, it is not clear if the two major Netflix robberies have any connection.
