Hi George, my husband is in broadcasting and while I was watching you he stopped what he was doing and asked who I was watching and said you have a fantastic speaking voice.
Absolutely love the mirrored tray. That was a great deal. I've wanted one for a while now, but I'm seeing them nearly twice that price, in antique stores.
This was another fun video! So happy to meet you and share a tip with your viewers on the video! Also great to see the items under the tents through your eyes! Thanks George!!!!
I love that cobalt blue Blanco piece in the background! I bought my son an orange or Amber one he loved it. When I went to visit him in Atlanta, we went to a junk store and they had a Blanco like that in amethyst for only, three dollars! They obviously didn’t know what they had. He has all the modern look in the grays and blacks in his beautiful home and he is collecting colorful glass to add color to his home.
I always see different things with you and the knowledge that you are teaching us is so wonderful you are a wonderful man George when I’m looking in my area I’m always looking for things that you have shown great show so many beautiful things hats off 😂to you 😊
Wow this place is huge and full of GREAT things to see. Loved the Wedgewood serving bowl and I seen a platter from Willow too. What really got me was the Fenton how beautiful. Thanks for taking me along with you. Have a great day and safe travels
The lovely Wedgwood oval bowl is in Grey and White Embossed Queensware, not Jasperware. In regards to having mark with "Etruria", the entire mark reads "Of Etruria and Barlaston" to reflect when Wedgwood moved their pottery manufacturing business from Etruria, Staffordshire to a large modern factory in a new village in the north of the parish. By this time the site was affected by mining subsidence, and plans were drawn for a new factory at Barlaston some miles south on the Trent and Mersey Canal. The new factory was built in 1938-40 and most of the old factory was demolished in the twentieth century after the Wedgwood company moved production to Barlaston. The factory was planned in 1936 and built in 1938-40 to the designs of Keith Murray who was also a designer of Wedgwood pottery. The factory has a tourist visitor centre containing the Wedgwood Museum, with its own car-parks and a bus station.
Oh yes, Barlaston was the replacement for Etruria eventually, hard to know which factory it came from. I found the story behind it quite interesting, since I spend part of my year in a coal mining area that has subsidence problems. I'd like to go see Barlaston someday!
I sold that dental cabinet before I moved. I was asking less but I got a lot more because the guy bought out all the watchmaker stuff I had for mid 4 figures I miss that cabinet though. It was great for drafting tools, brushes, sculpting tools etc, Mine was in about the same condition Loved theLLeyda and the swan cameo. still looking for a frank Lloyd wright r square. And Rajasthan animals, and I adoew Quimpere. still
Oh that's great! I kept a Donald Deskey one for myself but it doesn't have all those drawers, just a top drawer and a cupboard below. The Lleyda and swan cameo was a favorite of mine too. I love anything Frank Lloyd Wright, and Quimper is so sweet and nice! I worry for the Rajasthan animals, they're under so much pressure in their native habitat now.
If you ever see one of those Mexican silver bracelets (Aztec style with the blue glass faces, square station links.) I would love it if you could get a good deal and let me give you a profit 🤞 PS. I need close to at 8” length.
I love the cobalt blue Blanco piece! A few weeks ago I was visiting my son in Atlanta. My son bought a violet Blanco for $3 at a Thrift Store! They did not know what they had!
How I would love to follow you around here in Maine and just listen to what you say about what you're seeing! The vastness of your knowledge is amazing!
Sgraffito literally means to scratch, in Italian. It dates back to classical times. It is said to have originated from North Africa. It became popular in Europe. It has even been found in Iran. There it was found during an excavation, and pottery pieces were dated to around the tenth century.
@@TheAntiqueNomad there’s a great article on the MET website “Unravelling the Hidden Production History of Sgraffito Ware from Nishapur Elena Basso September 8, 2015” Google it and the whole piece is available to read. I really enjoyed it.
So funny! There must be reasons having to do with internal vs external body temperature I guess, or maybe it just melts too fast to be fun in high heat
Good evening, George. Those cameos and portrait pins were really nice. A grouping of the framed in a shadowbox frame would be a good-looking wall art piece. Several of those teen mystery books interested me. I liked the rickety-looking boat in front of the Stegmeyr beer tray. The Goebel nun looked like the Mother Superior, in _The Sound of Music_ movie. Loved the lavender epergne. That Victorian plateau would look good with some Heisey on it. The Victorian marble-topped table, just past the violin strings, caught my eye. Those WPA houses really interested me. Those were fantastic! The three invalid feeders there were fancier than most I've seen. Were those bronzes or spelter statues next to the Dresden owl? I liked all of those. Mom used to have some of the Daguerreotypes, in the Union cases, but she sold them when we combined houses. I wish they were still here. There was a ton of stuff to see there. A lot of it really interested me, too. Thanks for taking us along!
Hi there! I really like those as well, bought one good one in Canada that I have to lay my hands on now. That boat was cute, I could've spent a moment with it! You're right that Sister Hummel did look like Mother Superior in 'The Sound of Music', from about the same part of the world after all. I thought the WPA houses were tremendous and unusual! The invalid feeders were clearly from a finer home, and I could've taken more time with the lovely bronze next to the Dresden owl but I was distracted to say the least. I'm so glad you saw things you liked, I figure a New York show is more likely to span many decades of production and that matters!
@@TheAntiqueNomad Hey! Cameos have always fascinated me, and that lot was fantastic. Pond boats will, I guess, always catch my eye. If I had space for it, I'd have quite a collection of them. I especially like the ones that aren't perfect. I want the "played with" ones. Those WPA houses...I need another room on the house 😂 The Dresden owl was a fabulous piece, for sure! It's easy to understand you getting distracted by it. I never got into the owl thing, but if it had been a kestrel or a harpy eagle...yeah, forget the bronzes 😳🤣 From the look of that show, it would take the entire week to cover it completely. There were definitely many decades presented there, and it looked like a lot of them were the best of each decade presented.
I might need to give it a chance! It looked silly but sometimes farce is the best thing. I didn't realize from the photo that it was a satire on swinging 1960s London culture
Chinese art and artifact dealers are knowledgable enough to know and tell the pieces by the names of the dynasties. I still have to look at a chart and study marks to know the difference, especially since there's Ming marks remade in the Qing Dynasty, etc. That's why I euphemistically call them "dynastic era" just to say that they were not made in the last century
@@TheAntiqueNomad dynastic period is usually used to refer to an early Egyptian period! Most of what you point out is late 19th century or Republic period!

Those house from around the world really were interesting ! Glad sell was there to tell the background story of their origin.

❤😊❤
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
I saw a windup Santa on one of those tables that I had in the 60s.
Cool! Fun to see stuff again after all this time
This was another fun video! So happy to meet you and share a tip with your viewers on the video! Also great to see the items under the tents through your eyes! Thanks George!!!!
We'll have to make you an honorary cowboy here in Texas yeehaw!! 👍

They still make glass enclosed neon/argon gas skin therapy wands which claim to help with acne, infection, circulation and a slew of other things!
True! And I hear they work for some things

Hi George 😊
Ready to learn and watch! ❤
You do look good in a cowboy hat.

Wow what a deal!
Thanks a ton, George.
Binghamton NY saw Joe Bonamassa there
Fun!
@@TheAntiqueNomad who got g string
Had to watch again
The Stegmaier beer tray was from right here where I live in Wilkes Barre PA!
Cool! I was thinking they were a NY firm so I'm glad to know better
How I would love to follow you around here in Maine and just listen to what you say about what you're seeing! The vastness of your knowledge is amazing!
I'd love to get up to Maine again!
@@TheAntiqueNomad ....if you do please let me know!
I was there selling, but missed you. Maybe next time.
I'm so sorry I didn't get through the whole show! I'll have to come earlier in the week next time
What fun to be at this show!
So fun for me too! Thanks for coming along. Sorted train stuff today, that was so nice to get!
Love the glasses and the attitude plus the hat .

I love copper jewelry, can you give the names again of the quality pieces I can look for. Thank you
Renoir, Matisse and Rebajes are usually the better pieces, but Bell made some good things in copper and so did Coro
I live in central California and when I was a teen we used to laugh because when it was 110 degrees ppl wanted chili and when cold ice cream
So funny! There must be reasons having to do with internal vs external body temperature I guess, or maybe it just melts too fast to be fun in high heat
Thank you George for the info you share😊
so much fun :)

🤣 A “G” string 🤣
We called it high frequency in beauty school.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i did not know Cooks was in Evansville. :) :)
Yes! There were a few Evansville brewers over the years
Sounds almost like Brimfield
Very similar
✨❤️🧡💛💚💙💜✨
Higby I thought it was field of dreams 😅
What eye you have!
Ride um cowboy George !!!!
Midnight cowboy
Wht was that no jewelry after memorial day
They figured you were dressing casually for the beach or sailing and would lose it
By George don't play with lighters
The beautiful cameo with the swan is depicting the Greek myth of Leda and the swan (Zeus). Another story of Zeus as a womanizer ;)
Yes, he turned into all sorts of critters to fool the women!
True Antique dealers, especially those who deal in Chinese antiques do not use your term "dynastic period "!
