Shop With Me for Vintage Deals at a Fine Florida Antique Show!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 бер 2020
- Florida’s Gulf Coast is home to several good quality antique and vintage shows each winter, and one of the most pleasant and easy to shop is the Venice Antique Show! I’ve sold (and bought) here every winter for the past decade, and this year turned up a slew of unusual pieces from the past.
Enjoy a quick drive through Venice’s 1920s downtown on the way to the show, where a grand foyer hosts a display of New England seascapes and fine furniture that feels right at home in a setting not typical of antique shows.
There’s discovery around every corner in the main hall and side rooms! A handsome English pond boat, French provincial ceramics and ringed Cornish Ware catch the eye. Elaborate silver gilded figures, Teutonic silver battle trays and a row of sterling claws evidence the combination of beauty and harshness that lend Victorian tableware its unusual charm.
Have you heard of a castor set-or know what castor is? Who were the Dionne Quints? What is that woman hiding under her shawl? I get to teach and learn in this episode, and explain why I’m selling vintage Santas in February (only 300 shopping days left until Christmas!).
From Chein toys to Webb satin glass, the Venice show offers a lot of collectible finds not seen at the other Florida antique and vintage shows. A list of other highlights appears below…
I hope my review of this elegant antique show helps you learn more about antique and vintage items, inspires your own collecting and educates you about what I see as a vintage shopper! I’m excited to share my real world vintage encounters with the online community, I love sharing our passion and hope we all help each other with our antique education.
Here’s some more highlighted show items:
Belgian art deco frames, Chinese period jade and hardstone figures, windup tin toys, Tartan Ware, vintage sewing implements, porcelain cuspidor, Val St. Lambert glass, Royal Art Glass slag lamp, Limoges, Yves St. Laurent bags, Lucite necklaces, French ironstone, 1950s advertising thermometer, transistor radio, British India colonial sewing box, Victorian art glass, vintage children's books, Jumeau porcelain dolls, Dionne Quintuplets, vintage watches, etc.

Rewatching again. I wish I could hit the lock button again. learn something new each viewing. Thank you for keeping the older videos available.
I will keep them up as long as they'll let me!
George, so great to watch and listen to you describing everything. So many beautiful and interesting items. Thank you!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗
I'm glad you're enjoying it, so am I! More to come
George, I'm amazed at the breadth of your knowledge.
Abby Nash aww thanks that’s a real compliment coming from an experienced dealer like you!
@@TheAntiqueNomad George, today I watched 2 more vids and my comment is only more appropos. Bravo!
@@TheAntiqueNomad What are your thoughts on Independence interpace ironstone wear from Japan
George, i feel like i am walking through a beautiful museum, with the most knowledgeable, smart guide😎🥁🎼🎶Wishing you a successful, harmonious and healthy 2021....You are a joy and such a love...🥁🎼🎶🎼🥁😎Thank you.
I loved this show. My favorite, so far. Very educational and so interesting. I am learning so much!
Fantastic! That's what I'm hoping to bring to the UA-cam community of antiquers. This was an exceptionally nice show
Really impressed that you knew the Dionne Quints were Francophones , they were born in Northbay Ontario and I think they might still have the little house they were born in which they turned into a museum 🤗
I enjoy Canada and am shocked how little most of us Americans don’t know about our neighbor
Thank you for showing us all the beautiful treasures. Also, thank you for the informative lesson on antiques collectables. 🌻🌿🌼
You are so welcome! This was a very pretty show with some unusual things I don't see everywhere I go
OMG!
Vintage Christmas!!!!!
Even in Florida during 95 degree summer days, Christmas is every day :)
The kids are getting into porcelain!!!!! As a handbuilder, porcelain is so fun to work with. Old time' porcelain plates are true treasures because they have been perfect for one hundred years. I worship porcelain, it is the equivalent of diamonds in tableware. Porcelain is perfect. Porcelain is my favorite clay body. George this store has some great little items.
🤎🤎🤎🤎I enjoyed the visual ride. Thank you and
Stay safe!!!!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🙈🙉🙊🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🍀🍀🍀🍀💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡💕💕💕💕💕💕😻😻😻😻
That's great! Porcelain is so pure and smooth and took a long time and lots of skill to master. I'm so glad to see it picking up with younger fans again
Yes, because l heard a nasty rumor that some thrift stores smash things that don't sell. This wouldn't affect you, as it would someone like Scott or others who get their objects for the Goodwill or Church Store. Now l don't make plates or tea cup, but little art things for fun. I was lucky enough to know someone who painted plates, and tea cups. She did an excellent job. Thank you for highlighting my humble rant. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂💙💚💚💛💛🧡🧡❤❤🤍🖤🤎💜💙💚💛💛🧡🧡❤🤍🤍🖤🤎💜💙💚💚💛🧡🧡❤❤🤍🤍🖤🤎💜💙💚💛💛🧡
The online chat is fun. Thanks.
Thanks, Beth! I think so too, I'm not sure what it'll develop into but it'll be fun to find out. Hope you join in again soon
I love the piano baby
Teresa Faulkner that was a cute one!
I am a new subscriber and loved this video. Thanks so much for all of your info. I am in Melbourne, Fl. I think I will be binge watching all your videos during our lock down 😉. Stay safe and thanks again.
Aww, thanks! Please subscribe and I look forward to seeing you this week
I enjoyed this tour so much. Thank you for bringing us along. So interesting!
Wow!!! So many fabulous pieces! Absolutely stunning! ❤️ the Louis Vuitton luggage!
Yes it's the real deal alright
I came across a similar dish like the one on the half off table which was floral painted, the one I found was marked Germany. Have been regretting not picking it up, wanted it for plating some of the goodies that I bake. The fish platter was stunning as well but so much of it at that show was just beautiful, tyfs...💕
Ginger Poteet I'm glad you enjoyed it! This is a particularly nice show
Great video George! I had my mom's set of Dionne Quints with an original swing, I literally had a very hard time selling this. The swing I ended up throwing out (it had been painted with a different awning) and the quints sold for $250 all orig outfits with necklaces, very sad for me. My mom has past but she always thought these would be worth ten of thousands of dollars.
Oh, that's sweet and I'm glad they ended up with someone who loved them! The Quints still have fans but they're far enough back in time that demand is not as high as once was
I'm binge watching your videos today. Such a surprise to see that you were in Venice on this video. We lived there in the late 80's and it's still as charming as ever. This was a beautiful show and I'm in awe of your knowledge and how you seem to pick a random item and you know it's back story and the value. What a treasure you are and we get to watch you for free!
It is a lovely place to go! I imagine it was a hard place to leave. I'm glad that you like the format and hope to see you in the comments again.
You are such a wealth of knowledge! Thank you for sharing and for your videos.
I'm so glad to be able to do that for you!
I saw a sold painting with the sky meeting the water without much colour change. Painting was in a white shabby frame and the simplicity was beautiful Enjoyed your vid a lot George. Glenda from Australia ⭐️
Thank you so much I love having people join us from all over
This was fun and informative ♡
Thanks for sharing with us!
You are so welcome!
I watch your videos for the antique dolls!
I'll try to keep finding them for you!
loved getting to see more expensive side of collecting! would like to hear more of the prices on things . great booth you had . do a lot of people come into town just for the show?
People do come from afarI will try to mention pricing more but I really like to focus on the product and sometimes forget those details.
Love this video George...some gorgeous things! thanks for sharing!
Glad you had fun, so did I!
George, great informative video. I learn much from you sharing your knowledge. Thank again ,and wishing you many great sales and discoveries.
Thank you, that's so kind and I hope to share those things with you
LOVE your vintage Christmas items, George! I would have bought it all!
I wish you'd had the chance! There's a few things left but note tucked away until closer to the season, I think
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you! I hope you're subscribed and I'll get to show and tell with you weekly
The Castor (am I spelling that correctly? )set was a new thing for me, liked that a lot. Great information once again, buddy. Thank you
Great video George! ❤
Ty for showing us this show. My kids tea set has a little girl with a black poodle. So happy I still have it
I like the witches collection by Royal doulton but they are expensive. Glenda 💖
Yes they've held their value better because they're atypical
Was fantastic thanks george! Possibly my favorite! 👏👏👏👏
That's great! It was an upscale show with a lot of true antiques, we don't see so many with this caliber and age of items
Dang! I would've been worse than broke, if I had been at that show! I would've been stuck in those books forever, too. I've been looking for an 1898 copy of "Futility" for a long time...one I can afford... There were a lot of phenomenal items there! Thanks for taking us along!
By Morgan Robertson? Aka..The wreck of a Titan? I'll keep an eye out.
@@Soul-Nate Yes, Morgan Robertson is the author. I have a 1912 copy, and would like an 1898 copy. "The Wreck of the Titan" title was added at a later date, and the 1912 copy does have both titles. I have the "sinking" year copy, and would like to have a "prediction" year copy, to go with it. Thanks for being willing to keep an eye out for one. They may be out of my price range, but I would appreciate you letting me know if you do find one...just in case.
Interesting! I had the 1912 version as a child but didn't know it had been predicted 14 years prior. I'll look for it as well
@@TheAntiqueNomad Thanks! I wouldn't hold my breath finding one, though. There are very very few first editions in existence, but may be later editions floating about, so that is what I'd be going after, as long as it is an 1898 copy.
Gjensidige is my ensurance Company to this day 😄
Correction on the Mickey Mouse book...that is not the first MM book. The first book is by Bibo & Lang Chicago...comics.ha.com/itm/memorabilia/miscellaneous/mickey-mouse-book-bibo-and-lang-1930-the-first-mickey-mouse-book-published-in-1930-by-bibo-and-lang-makes-this-a-truly/a/816-4301.s
Thank you for that information! I made the error of relying on that dealer's information instead of researching it myself. That will be one to seek!
Yay for the afghans!!!
Yes thank you for inspiring me! My cameraman caught on to them when we first the 68/80 highway sale a few years ago, I hadn't thought about them until then
Fat Bird Finds Yes, so glad to see them, afghans are lovely & a work of art in their own right.
Loved this! Just subbed.
So glad to hear from a new viewer! Thanks for joining the online Antique and Vintage community, I'm sure we'll have fun together
FUN! TFS Hugs!
It was! I'm glad you had fun with it too
I'm a vintage Christmas collector , loved your Christmas display! This whole video was wonderful. I'm wondering if you happen to know who did the purple wine glasses on the Belgian table you took us to, I love them! Also wondering if you come across matchless stars in the wild...I've been looking for years in my thrift travels. Thank you for the lovely and informative video tutorials!
Hi there! I might see matchless stars. You're so welcome!
Thanks!
Sandra! That is so kind of you, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed this video, it's one of the finer shows I get to be part of in Florida
@@TheAntiqueNomad I’ve been binge watching all of your shows! It turns out we circle all of the same places! When you were in Harlan Kentucky I about peed my pants! I didn’t think anybody else had even heard of Harlan Kentucky. It’s like an hour and a half to the nearest interstate but ironically I graduated high school there. Also Saint Pete and areas of Michigan and a few other points along interstate 75. Following you is like visiting my past without having to drive.
@@MrJumbatron that’s so fun! I’m going back to Harlan to do appraisals November 5
@@TheAntiqueNomad well granny had 18 kids and they all got kids and their kids have kids so there’s a lot of Thomas and Pennington kin folk running around there.
My parents lived in Venice! Right on the way to Manasota Key
I'm excited to do the show in January 2023 there again
At 14:30 there is a blue heart at the left. Wondering about that. If you can find the time. 😬😬😬we have been binge watching. ❤
I think it's a piece of Lapis Lazuli carved and put into a metal frame
@@TheAntiqueNomad your awesome! Thank you!
Fun❤
Does Janelle have an online store? How can I connect with her? I ❤️ vintage Chanel.
She's semi-retired and not selling in any stores right now, just shows and not until late autumn. I think you can find vintage Chanel by contacting Refound on Central Avenue in St. Petersburg, FL or by contacting D. Brett Benson on S. Dixie Hwy. in West Palm Beach, FL. Tell them I sent you, they're both very nice people!
can you identify the piece ...brown glass with circles n the last row at 41:12 ? I HAVE a similar bowl with those circles that appear when you shine light thru it.
I believe it is Val St. Lambert from Belgium, 1930s. They were mostly an art glass maker but they did some more pressed elegant glass pieces in that era because the depression made it hard to sell high-end art pieces
You said the quintuplets were "frankenthons". WHAT does that mean?.
Francophones, I probably sounded garbled there. They were French Canadian.
They were French speaking with their heritage from France but were given that name if you lived and were born in Canada
Ex-cellent vid gorgeous george-u bad u know it!
How do it, to see so many things. Beautiful things and not buy everything?
I have to restrain myself, I only have so big a pocket book!
