  • Love at first sight! I’m spontaneously appraising the really varied vintage and antique items people have brought to 'Tique Stock in Marshall, Michigan! We never know what’s coming up next, and part of our job is to ask the questions needed to understand the things that come with great lore.
    Sometimes, appraisals go up, up, up, as in the case of Mike @WellSwung, whose several hundred dollar purchase of an important 1948 fashion illustration book pays off when he reveals the signature of a famous designer!
    Lots of unusual items come to this appraisal fair, from Italian ceramics to art deco gold, and everyone is having fun telling the stories of how these atypical items came to be with them.
    There’s a whole lot of appraisals here! We try hard to be accurate, but this video is our unvarnished first look at all these items. Enjoy this long format video, and leave a comment!

    Had a great aunt who worked at the Yale mission in China in the early part of the twentieth century. Have lots of embroidery items she brought back. She said the "forbidden stitch " is actual from the forbidden city. Taught to the Chinese by French missionaries and is the same as a French knot! Antique dealers love to create stories that make their items more interesting.

    We used to hear that refinishing older furniture ruined its value.
    Interesting to hear George tell the owner of the Lane end table that refinishing it would increase its value.
    Thank you for explaining why the JFK newspapers are not as valuable as we thought they were. You'd need to have the one from Dallas.

    • @lionheart830
      @lionheart830 19 днів тому +2

      I think the furniture needs to be professionally refinished. With so many people refinishing furniture these days after watching you tube videos, it makes me worry.

    • @TheAntiqueNomad
      @TheAntiqueNomad  19 днів тому +1

      Refinishing would need to be thoughtful, but it's not so hard to restore mid-century finishes because they were all factory formulated and applied.

    Good evening, George. I watched the appraisal fair when it was live. There were a lot of things people brought that were fascinating. With it being Mother's Day, and the situation as it is, I just wasn't up to getting in the chat...it was a difficult day. It was a _very_ welcome distraction for me, though. I liked the Polish Orthodox icon. I have an Orthodox icon of the Virgin and Child that has a couple marks on it, but I can't make out what they are. The 1948 fashion design book was a really fantastic find. It's not exactly my thing, but I am able to recognise the value and importance of it. It should _always_ be kept intact. The micro-mosaic dog was a really nice piece, and the tintype, with the child in uniform, was really unusual to see. The Red Riding Hood pin is something I would actually buy. I have an antique, upright photo album, with diamond-shaped mirrors in each "door" on it, on which I put old brooches. That would be a great addition. That was a really fun appraisal fair - both yesterday and tonight! I really enjoy seeing what people have collected and bring for an appraisal!
