Heirloom Treasure Revealed! Antique & Vintage Appraisal Fair
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 кві 2024
- People are dusting off their favorite heirlooms, packing boxes with old family collections, taking down portraits and loading the car with antiques and vintage for the rest of us to see in this video! We take a look at one-of-a-kind items and family favorites at the Jewel Antique Mall appraisal fair in Belleair Bluffs, Florida, looking for clues that reveal the stories behind these relics and sharing them with both you and their owners.
What's the story of the woman in the portrait dad saved? Are mom's favorite pearls worth more than she paid on that cruise ship? How do we reunite a unique winner's circle flag with the wealthy new owner of the winning car from a 1971 NASCAR race? People bring so many interesting antique and vintage items, seeking knowledge and understanding that is my great pleasure to share with us all.
From 1950s kiddie records and 1970s pewter to a true antique Amphora owl and a 19th century platter in a rich mulberry color, the things people have kept aside are seeing the light of day for the first time in years! Stylish modern lamps, a 14k gold ring and many more surprises await as we spend a fun day helping people learn more about their favorites, and inspiring us to learn more about our own!
(To that end, we are having more appraisal fairs in Washington and Northern Idaho this month, check the community tab on my UA-cam channel homepage for info and come see us!)

I need to make a correction! I had the chronology of the King James Bible's revision wrong and made a mis-statement about the motivation being about the Cromwell Revolution, which happened in a different order. Please refer to a comment below made by vinyl1earthlink below for clarification, and thank you for the input by he and Tim Hazeltine to make sure we're presenting correct information here! Thanks
No worries, I read the info below, wow it was a tangle of royalty and countries 😂
George I just love to watch you do appraisals! You are no doubt the best and make the customers feel valuable even when their item may not be! ❤
Absolutely 😊
How in the world 🌎 can you remember SO MUCH. You are so knowledgeable. Thank you. I really admire you.
You are so welcome! I just like and seem to retain this stuff. Lots of experience helps and I learn new things all the time.
George , you do have so much fun doing appraisals . Your eyes just sparkle with delight . I can’t think of another person who has the knowledge you do .
Yes, I couldn't agree more! Well said.
Appraisal fairs produce the coolest content. Fascinating stuff just shows up!!
Good video to Share ! Very interesting!
Thank you and yes, please share!
Always !
I so, so, so very much enjoy these videos. Thank you so much. I learn so much from you. Talk about a walking book of knowledge. LOL😊
King James (VI of Scotland and I of England) was the King who followed Elizabeth I. Before the beheading of his son and successor Charles I and the following interregnum Commonwealth. Just thought I’d say.
Wonderful, and you look so nice!
Very dapper indeed
Oh thank you!
I love this format George! I have learned so much from you, thank you!
Thank you so much George. As you spoke of the two column Bible, I was thinking what a scholar you are ! I am so appreciative of your interest in doing youtube videos because you have made yourself avaliable to us!! My sisters are fascinated, as am I, with the appraisals. I have been thanked repeatedly, by the 4 of them, for introducing you into their world.
Wow, thank you! I really do appreciate getting to do this aas well.
I had never heard of this type of Bible
Thank you George for another very informative video! I love how you enjoy the people, their stories, and treasures. It's a pleasure to watch!
So nice of you! I like doing it
@@TheAntiqueNomad Oh we can tell! Have a great evening.
So much knowledge, I love listening to your appraisals. You are so sensitive towards people and their often family heirlooms. I like listening to their stories too.
I am always so amazed at how much knowledge you have.
Me too
Your so brilliant, every time I watch iam amazed at the amount you can retain, thank you😊
Thx George, it was fun. Good to see you have patience. 😅
Thx George, I look forward to the next adventure. 😀
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
Fascinating to watch you share your knowledge. Great vide,thanks for sharing Xx
Some interesting items and information for stuff left in the attic/basement or even the trash bags. You have a wonderful day and safe travels
Hi George! Glad to hear you are back home safely! I really enjoy the appraisal fair videos. It's still surreal that I was in one live at 'Tique Stock last fall. Looking forward to seeing you in May!❤
Thanks George! Great appraisal show
Great items
Hey George! Thanks for the fantastic content! I believe that battle axe is African in origin, and is usually attributed to the Songye tribe. Thanks again ad have a great day!
Enjoyed this video. 😊
This was fun.
Wow you r amazing to listen to. Thank you
Love and APPRECIATE
Every one of your videos!! So much interesting info!
I wish I had your wealth of knowledge, wonderful video as always.
Thank you!
Even if it’s not an area I collect in, that car racing winners flag was pretty cool! I hope there’s a reunion with the car and flag in the future😊 if you find out, please let us know!
Hoping to catch you next time you come to do this appraisal.
I've not been impressed by any appraisers i've found in my area and have 2 things of my great great auntie's that would be terrific to bring to you. 😊
Great! I hope to do again next year at the same location
Hey, George. I'm back watching from the go. That Amphora clock was really pretty. I'd have it in the clock shop, if it was mine. That decorative battle axe was interesting. I liked it. I have a large antique Holy Bible here, and it has the Apocrypha in it. I can't remember the date in it, but it was never written in the pages for that. Those Mikimoto pearls were nice. Pearls and cameos, to me, are timeless class.
I'm back to where I came in late. These appraisals are always fun and incredibly interesting. I can't understand why Barrett-Jackson wouldn't want to contact the person that bought the Corvette, so they could be given the chance at that flag. They could, at least, contact the byer, themselves, and ask if they would like the flag. That comes across as just being obstinate. Great items! Thanks for showing and giving the information on them!
I'm so glad you got to see this! It was really fun seeing why you were away and I am so glad you got that piece, I honestly should have just offered it to you in the first place now that I think of it! Anyhow, I thought people brought some very nice and some truly old things, and I was happy about what I said except for one error I made about the bible that came (please see pinned comment above). Barrett-Jackson apparently sold it to a couple who divorced, so that is why the complication...not sure whether it left them for someone else or was kept by one party. Barrett-Jackson also apparently pooh-poohed the notion that this guy had the actual flag, which sure looks right to me in every way. B-J is making so much on selling classic cars now that they probably don't have time or wherewithal to deal with what would be a low-dollar transaction for them, that's no dig at them at all but just the reality of the fact that they're a major auctioneer of cars specifically in peak market times.
@@TheAntiqueNomad There's no way I'm going to miss watching a complete premier of yours, so I had to come back and watch from the go. I'm happy you put that piece on eBay, instead of offering it directly to me. I was curious if that important aspect of it would gain attention. I've never seen that before. They did bring really nice things to be appraised. I caught the error about the bible, but with you having so much to concentrate on, with the many appraisals, so I didn't think anything of it. It was an error of history, but not of the value of the bible, itself. I know you do your best to be accurate in the information you provide, though, so I understand why something like that would concern you. The likely reason B-J pooh-poohed the notion the flag is genuine is because they weren't the ones that owned it 😂 Self-importance has a tendency to create arrogance and ignorance 😏 If they had been willing to do a selfless service, they, themselves, could've contacted the buyer of the car and asked if they would be interested in having a look at the flag...one phone call.
@@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS you know, I just agree with all of that, and thank you!!
Really enjoying
Thanks! Me too. They brought cool stuff to see
Me too 😊
Good evening, George. I'm late getting here, so I'll have to watch from the beginning...I had something I had to do 😉😁
I'm not big, at all, into the owl items, but I really liked that porcelain amphora-style one. I like yellow topaz, and that ring was a nice one. The emerald cut really made it appealing, to me. Yellow topaz was my granddad's birthstone.
I'm going to go back and watch from the go...
The old glass-eyed owls have always been my favorite! So he was a November baby?
@@TheAntiqueNomad Yes, he was born 2 November, 1910. That owl was very well made, and it did appeal to me. Most of them...not so much. I never got into the owl craze of the 1970s, so they've just never had much interest for me. The realistic, well made, detailed ones do get my attention, though.
You are wonderful, one day I’d love to run into you. ❤
Loved seeing you do appraisals! You would be great on Antiques Roadshow!
I could help backstage, I don't have their field-specific expertise
✨❤️🧡💛💚💙💜✨
George, as u looked at the yellow topaz, u mentioned that there is something that can be used to determine the grade of gold. How is that done?
I recommend either getting the chemical and materials to do a scratch test, or to know a gemologist who has really expensive new equipment that can tell whether a place is really plated. Unfortunately, they're making heavily plated gold jewelry over a cheap heavier metal core now, and you can't tell unless you scratch it to reveal the innards, or have a super duper camera than can look through it. The chemical precipitates the gold left by scratching the piece and is adjusted chemically to each gold weight.
Thank you for your extended answer, I really appreciate the explanation.
✨💖✨
I was the 100th like! How fun!
Wow, cool! I'm thankful for your support and everyones
George, do you know anything about the artist A.S.M Toyra? My grandpa met him in the 40’s in L.A. and had 7 paintings done by him. I have 5 of them. He was from Northern Europe. Do you know what his paintings are worth? Or would they just be for the value of family memories?
😅❤👍
Hi Pammy
@@janetpogue4970 Hi Janet😊
By George n zeno see yall in seven hours.. sure yall happy 5o be home luv from the South ill be joining from lakeside
I sure am! We'll look forward to it
The painting of the "soulful" woman looked like a female Marty Feldman.......
A whole lot of people said that in the chat during the premiere too! Lol. I didn't see it but now I do
07:09 I've been a wood block junkie for 20 years. If that's real Hiroshige it could be worth a pile. Re Bibles: the King James isn't the King James. There were two Revisions that I remember, the last circa 1769. The English language had shifted and they updated the text.
Thank you for the info on King James! I had forgotten the second revision. I also made a misstatement about the timing of the first edition that I will pin in the comments above.
Can you pls advise your contact for appraisals. Link in the post is not working. Thank you
I am so sorry, we're having trouble with the website currently. Please send email to me at theantiquenomad@gmail.com
7:16 I would not use gloves
There is an appraiser on youtube who wears them in goodwill
Your English history needs work, George. The King James Version was translated by a committee of scholars appointed by James I, who was king from 1603 to 1625. Charles I, who was his son, was defeated in the English civil war, leading to the Commonwealth led by Cromwell.
Yes, James I was the son of Mary, Queen of Scots. He became King James VI of Scotland at the age of one year after his mother was forced to give up the throne. King James VI became King James l of England in 1603 upon the death of Queen Elizabeth l because he was the great grandson of Queen Mary the spouse of King James IV of Scotland. Queen Mary was the daughter of King Henry VII of the House of Tudor (England) and his consort Queen Elizabeth of York. So, as the senior descendant of the House of Tudor he inherited the English Throne. An interesting fact is Scotland and Britain (Britain = England and Wales) remained seperate countries until the early 18th century. So the two countries were only united in the person of the monarch. Consequently, the sovereign's 'number' could vary, hence King James was simultaneously King James VI of Scotland and James I of Britain. It's completely understandable that George got a bit lost in the weeds of British Isles history.
What the heck 😂 are u correct or is this baloney?
My gut says you are correct, that's so convoluted it can only be ture. 😂 wow
@vinyl1earthlink @timhazeltine3256 You are both correct, I had this misfired in my memory. I will do a pinned comment above if I can't pin this so people see the corrections you have made. I appreciate your willingness to help keep things accurate on this channel!
@@janetpogue4970 - It's the basics of the chronology of English political history, that would be covered in an undergrad English history survey course. When you get to the grad seminars on 17th and 18th century English history and politics, then you're really in the weeds!
@@vinyl1Earthlink @janetpogue4970 I agree, and I admit I only have a sketch outline from what I have read, I took history of North American countries in lieu of English history in school. I tell people all the time that I'm still learning, and I appreciate when people who know more teach me something!
