- Table lamps can be a great thing to look for but how do you know if you have a potential gold mine? These are some of the crazy lamps I have found over the last few months and I explain how you can find some of these hidden makers marks and determine exactly what they are worth. These are some of the examples I have resold and flipped on ebay.

As a new estate sale dweller, part-time reseller, I have found myself buying lamps everywhere because I like them. Who knows- maybe I was locked in a dark room in a profile life😂😂
All I know is that I need to learn everything I can about my new obsession. I need to move some of these out of my house. Thank you!!
Lol
I'm so glad I found this video! The PH lamp, you found looks so much like a lamp. We have it prompted me to look closer at ours and sure enough we have a Henningsen!
Thanks for all the excellent lamp tips. The best lamp I've every picked up was a 1960's Fat Lava Glaze Lamp made in Germany. A pair sells for $1,500.00. Mine sold for $600.00. Pretty good profit for only paying $6 at Goodwill.
Jewelry, vases, candlesticks, clocks- wall-wrist-pocket, books, paintings, frames, mirrors, serving services, furniture ...
All this can be found very cheaply, and then sold for big money if you know how to recognize value and quality. I think that such a video would have reviews, and also help many who go hunting for valuables.
Your painted lamp is done in reverse. Basically, a painting is done from the background to the foreground. Reverse is exactly like it sounds. The artist has to lay down all the highlights first, like the snow on a branch. Then the artist lays down the branch. The more illusion of depth, the more valuable the lamp.
So this is why it’s so overwhelming to me. You have to know a bit about what the heck you’re looking for (which I sort of don’t) and you walk into this huge store of lamps… it would take me weeks to go through there looking at what they have and trying to figure out what things are worth, and what they can be sold for. I am just in awe of someone like you who can do what you do!
This is great. I have always loved lighting! I love antique and old lighting.
Such knowledge! Thank you for sharing it with us!! I am alllllllll about the unusual! Ppl in GW will stop me and ask me what different items in my basket are, and a lot of the time, I don't have the foggiest idea of what I have picked up!! You're giving great advice as to what to be looking for!! Thanks!!!
As always super informative and fun to watch!
Awesome! - Thanks Man! - I never look for Lamps! Now I'll start trying!
Glad it was helpful! there are some good ones!
I'm subscribing because,,,,,,,,
Your energy is soooo freaking contagious!!! 😊 I want to learn about lamps! I loooove lamps so that's a no brain ER!
gemeni-dreams
Knowledge is power in this business , good scores !!! I would say chairs have been the most consistently profitable and widely available and overlooked by most pickers .... Sone chairs can be sleepers and very valuable..., thanks for the info on the lamps never can know enough !! 🌞
Thats so good to know! thanks for sharing !
Love mcm!! You have so much knowledge on so many different things that's why you find the 800 dollar lamps e.t.c lol but I don't resale but of I did I'd be taking notes from you!! 🤗🖐 TFS I so enjoy seeing all the stuff you find it's so much fun!!💥💣
Love, love, love! Would love to learn more about lamps and finding the maker’s mark. Art is what I’d like to know more about identifying. Thanks!
Thats great! maybe we can do a part 2 with more lamps!
Hi Dingo / Treasure Hunter Reseller 👋 Just found your channel tonight while searching to find out if a Frederick Cooper lamp retains its value even if chipped.
Have to say awesome video! You share great info, balance humor and timing (not too long or short) and have a fun personality. Made a new sub out of me! 🙂
Lighting has been a must have it makes me happy finding it n even happier when I sell
Great info on something I never really considered looking at before. Now I'll be checking out those lamps at estate sales, if they ever have any more. Vintage cookie jars and pottery are everywhere. Maybe you could do a video on them.
Oh I like that idea! Cookie jars would be a fun one
Love the videos , great content as always . Saludos from SF. I will keep eyes open for this lamps and if I find one I will definitely let you know :)
Awesome information to find some higher end lamps :D Nice to learn more about higher profit items.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for another great video. And thank you for your information because of you I scored a Baccarat bud vase for a $1. I would have never bought it if you hadn't told me about this company so thank you. I would love to see a video on Salt and Pepper shakers. This is something I have been picking up and doing really well with them.
I've had some excellent finds myself. One in particular was a set of amber glass slip shade pendant lamps at an antique flea mall. It was a set of three, two had the complete set of glass slip shades, the third had one missing. I got the set for $35! I got home and did some research, listed it on eBay and got almost $600 for the set!
I just found you this morning & really like yr video. Thanks so much for the info. I love love love old lamps & it just makes me feel good to come into a room & have a gorgeous lamp lit up that nobody else has or very few. Takes my mind back to a simpler time than the crazy depressing state our country is in now.😔
Thanks for the info, very much appreciated. Although, I must admit that it really bothers me that people will go to these places like goodwill or yr neighborhood antique store & barter & plead to get the price down & not even care about the lamp. Then go out & stake the price so friggin’ high that the average lamp lover & of nostacgic things cant afford them. It really heart breaking bcs that means only the extremely wealthy can have them.
Look, I understand that folks need to make money, sure. I guess thats better than actually working. Its jst that there are so many good people out there that wld love & cherish these items as well & cant do so bcs of the jacked up ridiculous prices that are placed on them by hunters that do not care about the item at all but only interested in the profit they can make off of it. There have been too many times Ive watched those two men on tv that go around the country to garage sales & Mom & Pop antique stores & do this very thing. Ive seen them get in the old lady’s/mans good graces & these poor old people are so happy to have someone show them some attn that they basically give it to one of the men for nothing. Ive even heard an old woman tell them that she was at least glad that to know that someone got it that wld care for it the way she had. I guess it comforted her to know that she sold it for that low of a price to a person she thot wld care for it. Except as soon as they got away with it, they sold it to some bidder from another country & who knows what they used it for!😢
I know, I know, I mean, I truly get it but it jst irks the heck out of me that they sort of scammed the poor old lady. Making her think she gave it to them cheap just bcs they loved it so much. That part of it jst angers me a lot. Anyway, Im jst rambling. Im not hating you here. Just chaps my hide about those pickers doing that to people, especially the older ones.
Thanks again for the informative & cute video. Gonna be back for sure. 😉👍😬
picked up a floor lamp for $5 at a church rummage, beautiful ornate design, majority is cast iron, base is round with 4 lion legs (love them lion legs) Will put a milk glass pendent on it and paint it gold, it originally was plated gold. At the bottom it says pat 1840 so most likely from 1850-late 1800.
Gr8 info Dingo... That's valuable insights on where to look and what to look for... Thank you... I've gotten a few lamps one tiffany style it's beautiful Also got a very heavy base on an architects mid-century modern lamp it's very expensive last couple comp's were $400.00 - $600.00 that's too much to ship so I am keeping it for now...lol...😂 Stay safe out there...👍💕🔥🌎😷
Your video was very great and informative. Thanks for creating this awesome video. Today, I found a pair of Carl Falkenstein very large mid-century/Hollywood regency green emboli glass table lamps. I cannot wait to upload pics of them onto my EBay and Mercari. You would not believe how much I paid for them and they are going for close to $3,000
Really great facts- thank you.
Very interesting lamps. Art glass vases would be great to learn about
Great idea!
The Vernor Panton lamps are a favorite of mine! I'm glad you did show it again. Are the markets at Alameda open yet?
No still everything is still closed sadly :( I dont think they are planning on opening them anytime soon
Btw... Love the lamps you aquired they're beautiful and very valuable& highly collectable... I also love art deco ashtray's those are amazing as well... Stay safe...👍💕🔥🚬😷
Love this vid. Thanks!
Very informative thank you
Thank you so much! I have searched and searched my art deco bronze with two ladies holding a globe lamp from my great grandmother and all I can see on the edge is No. 192. Any hints you can give me greatly appreciated. I just subscribed to your channel! Thanks so much!
Thanks again for the great info! CLOCKS! I bought a Howard Miller mantel clock at a Goodwill for under $5 that retails for about a grand. I looked it up in the GW and almost had a heart attack. lol It still had a sticker with the model # on it which made it easy to look up. It would be nice to know what we should be looking out for when it comes to clocks. =)
Just found this channel. Why is the GW? Thanks !
@@lindalentz5093 I was abbreviating Goodwill = GW. Meaning that I looked it up on my phone while I was still at the store. =)
YoSoBoho Rescued Treasures 🤦🏻♀️thanks !
Dingo you should get together with one of my favorite sellers Crazy Lamp Lady. I love your videos!
I love her channel! Im a big fan
Your videos r so fun
I Love the large thick cut glass & crystal pitcher's vases and dish sets. Waterford is fun too.
Nice! I love those too!
I have 4 I'm selling.
I think I may have stumbled onto something I haven’t bought my first lamb yet but this confirmed there is market for it
Your videos are the best....
Thank you Jim! Im really happy your liking them!
Would love to see an in-depth video of vintage Murano glass lamps !
Great content
Lamps r the best .love u ! Ur such a cutie pie!
Very interesting
I love all your videos! I see nicnacs all the time. sometimes i grab one or two because they look interesting and if I cant find another on ebay i list them for 20 to 40 bucks sometimes more. What I dont understand is how sometimes they go really fast for good money and sometimes i just cant give them away. Ive done pretty good with frog things and hippos but the elephants are 50 50
Hey Shane! Thanks for watching! That's a great recommendation! I feel like there would a be a lot to lean with nicnacs
Scored an industrial OC White drafting table light, paid $135 had no idea it's worth until I saw similar that have sold for 2k+ online!
Hey, so in my pantry in the back I thought it was an old christmas topper but when I tried to move it, I realized it was HEAVY. I pulled it out where I could see the whole thing and was amazed it was a lamp. I’ve never seen anything like it and I knew it was quality by its weight. I’m talking maybe 10 pounds but idk I didn’t really weigh it. On the bottom it says Arredoluce Made in Italy. After some research I’ve found that it’s model name is “cobra” lamp, but idk what kind of bulb it fits. Where do I get info on how to restore this lamp or get it working myself?
Another great and very informative video . I always see porcelain in every estate sales and antique stores and I'm interested in Geisha wares, famille rose and blue wares. How do I know which is an older piece? Which is more valuable ? Or how to spot a reproduction or fake?
Thank you for watching! Great suggestion!
I just got an AMAZING, very old, seahorse and nautical bridge lamp. I'd love your opinion about it. I intend to keep it because I absolutely love it. It needs restoration, too. I mean, I'd like it to look better. But!!! I realize too much can reduce value.
Wow perfect timing I bought a lamp it looks really really old but I don’t think it’s old I’ve been searching for the mark on it and can’t find it ( except for the word BERMAN)
I guess that’s it…
I didn’t find anything in my research that look like this lamp…it’s probably a reproduction but I’m not worried about it I’ve decided to keep it because I like it and I only paid five dollars for it at a garage sale lol …OK my question is actually two questions first question does the value go down on a vintage or antique lamp if the cord has been already replaced???
Second question if you’re looking to buy a lamp in any place and you suspect the makers mark is underneath the felt on the bottom of the lap because you can’t find it anywhere else what do you do ask him to pull it off so you can look at it I’m curious???
By the way this one looks like a palm tree type lamp…
Thank you in advance…
Blessed Be
I’ve noticed that robert sonneman kovachs has post modern lamps from the 80s and 90s are going for a bit now. Especially their echoes of Vienna stuff. Perhaps you can give your take on these kind of futuristic lamps from not that long ago that seem to hold their value and unique looks
Hi, watched your video. It was great. What prompted me was I recently bought a lamp and after getting it home, I learned it was a Dale Tiffany. It’s an Art Nouveau style which is what drew me to it in the first place. I love Art Nouveau. It has a metal tag on the inside that is soldered to the lamp shade. So I was wondering what you think about this lamp? Do you think I have something nice here? Your thoughts and or opinions would be greatly appreciated! I’m trying to figure out how to send photos. I’ll send this then try to cut and paste. Thanks Lou
I wasn’t able to figure out how to send photos. The lamp is 25” high, and the lamp shade is 16” across at the widest point. Anyway any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks. Lou 🙏🏼☺️
I would be interested in learning how you package your lamps to ship
I have a lamp. Going to look for its maker's mark.
A bought a 1960s Leviton Brass & Amber glass Lamp. For $3 and I looked it up ITS worth over $400… ITS REALY Gorgeous
Looking for juniper table lamps, any ideas? Colorado has a few shops, thanks!
I found an amazing vintage pole lamp. It has markings on the bottom but I cant find anything more about it. Would you be able to take a look at it if I sent a picture?
Just found these videos. Love them too bad you haven’t done any in a year
How about Leviton lamps, how much they cost probably? I found big 36 inch lamp, ceramic stone with linen shade. The lamp is super heavy 20 pounds.
Very enlightening. Get it. LOL
Glad you liked it Bobbi!
I have sold a light fixture for $150.00 that I got for free because we helped a person clean out a house that was being torn down. They were going to toss a beautiful 1920s light fixture!
Wow nice! People love old lighting !
Do you know how to identify Robert Sonneman lamps? Thanks!
Can you please tell me how to research Warren Kessler lamps.
I’m trying to find some info on the Rainbow Lamp Company to no avail. Any suggestions?
I love vintage jewelry. Do ever find great jewelry?
I’d love to know how to tell if I’ve got a girandole lamp. How can I tell?
Enjoy!!

Brass/bronze Cherub table lamps with Chandelier Crystals, 2 cherubs with open arms back to back with 12 cascading crystal circles , 6 in each row.. The lamps shades are in poor condition but the framework is perfect. Please advise. I would gladly share a photo if you like.

I have rescued some vintage blanch de chine reticulated cherry blossom, white porclin, ginger jar lamps from going in the trash. Vintage 1940 -1950 WWII brought back from Occupied Japan.
How do I sell them?
I have a lamp with a lampshade this like a paper light lampshade with roses on it the lampshade is trimmed and look like brass and wood for candle sticks. The only thing is on the bottom herco 2. Do anyone know anything about this table lamp?
I have a Benjamin 3 socket table lamp with rams heads that I am cleaning up and I have never seen anything like it. I'm not sure who to take it to for an appraisal... if you'd like a picture, let me know.
Japanese and Canton pottery. A lot of resellers I watch are always like "ooo it says made in Japan" but don't a lot of modern things say that too? Also how to sell vintage canton versus modern canton? It's all so confusing
Great suggestion Tay! that would be a cool video! I feel like there are a lot of those things around
I want to find these treasures and hoard them like a dragon
This literally made me Lol 😆 and I totally relate!
Could you tell me anything about this lamp please?
Found what I think is a Frankart nude woman lamp. I believe it's original because the age of the cord. I can send pictures through email. I was wondering if you could tell me the value of this lamp

How To Spot The Most Valuable Table Lamps...??
What are my lamps worth
PFH ?
May we see more of the actual lamps and less of you?
could you calm down.
Way to much chatter move on please
your so knolegable on lamps and thats why i started watching the video. the rreason why i couldnt finish it was the thing i hate the most is the person talking and telling you the info you want to know thinks there a stand up comedian and it happens with so many sitesthat i come across looking for knoledge on things i dont know enough about and i always say knowlege is money and i could always use more and i love learning .If i could only find a person knowlegable in antiques and collectables who acts seriuse and not like there auditioning for a comedy show id be in heaven and i would spead the news to alot of people i know looking for the same thing a seriuse person with a antique and collectables youtube channel.just alittle constructive critisism, Oh i know i cant spelll ,. Sorry for that and dont take this personal . you seam like a great person and maybe its just me ,but i dont think so ,Im just telling you this because if your doing this chanel and want it to be way bigger instead of haveing 7 or 8 thousand subs im sure if you were a bit more seriuse i bet you you could have well over 50,000 subs in no time,there is so many people i know that would kill for a site they could learn more from without the comedy part of the show,. Take care and i wish you all the best from Toronto.
