How to Make Everything Old Look New Again! Antique Vintage Shop & Sell
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- We're on a secret mission when we go to shop and stroll Antique Galleries of St. Petersburg! This stylish mall of designer, vintage and antique discoveries has a space that needs rediscovery...and our job is to slim it down and recast it quickly to keep it going.
But what to do first? Shop! This big antique mall fills an entire 1960s bank building, and the upstairs is newly revamped with a lot of resellers who cater to collectors of art glass, modern/kitsch, French antiques and designer delights. We find a cool cat that always sells, a bodacious bunch of 1930s Czech spatter glass and pairs of dancer lamps that still grace 1950s vintage houses in the area.
The next space we see is 50% off...but is that not enough? It's secret mission time, where we quietly review and pick the space of a dealer friend who needs to downsize desperately. Repricing? Let's go 75% off! Remerchandising? Absolutely! Best of all, some of the most wow factor stuff gets to migrate to my world of vintage and antiques, and we show what we picked and how it looks and is selling in new venues and at new prices! Everything old is new again...

I watched you on The Niche Lady (Danni) channel on Monday. She said it right-you don’t just provide what it is but include the why. Not only that, the who. I enjoy your videos because of the bonus information.
Thank you so much! I like talking about those things because I think they make collecting more interesting
@@TheAntiqueNomad Hey George , bought a Roger Dale signed art glass vase the other day. Have you heard anything good about this maker ???
@@mw10259 Yes, contemporary but well designed and not cheap
I could watch you all day long, George: you are so informative and go to such interesting places that are FULL of beautiful and wonderful things! That "Blackamore" TV lamp was interesting, I think you saw a similar piece at a place you were doing appraisals, except it was smaller maybe and on a wired stand that held the bulb? Sadly I can't spend all day enjoying your mellifluous voice. Thank you so much for all the very excellent content you release to the world :)
Thank you so much! The small head vase on the TV lamp in last week's appraisal video was the same era
So good of you to help your fellow traider out , and with another great shop your a star.❤
The antique mall was lovely. There are so many wonderful treasures. One could get lost for hours shopping there.
Almost 60K, way to go George. George-Fans, lets email his video to a friend. He deserves out thanks, I think..
You're such a sweet friend George.
He must feel so relieved.
Looks much better too.
He had gorgeous pieces.
Thanks! It seems to be helping, he was able to move out of the mall and retire
I am always amazed by how much knowledge you have! I learn something from every video! Thank you George!
Bohemian glass is pretty special.😊
active feet cracked me up and agreed on that wonderful art deco pitcher toooo 🥰
I really like that thing!
I hated that I missed the live chat! It was a great show!
I enjoy your knowledge and attitude.
OMG George!!! The wee yellow cat with the perfume bottle took me right back to my childhood in the 70's! I had a few at that time. Wish I had them now! Thanks for your great videos. I learn much and am entertained at the same time! Thank you! :)
Thank you so much for your videos! I had a misfortune, I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I also created a channel and am trying to move in that direction, but so far not very successful((uh
Thank you! My childhood too

It is so joyful to watch you go around an antique store. As usual l learn so much.Nothing like 50s Horrible movies. Thank you for sharing.🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸🌹🍀🐱🌸
I love how he said, something like These would be more popular, if I ruled the world. I know the feeling. Also, I think if George did run the world, it would be a nicer place to live. Thank you, again, for brightening up my day. (I've notice younger collectors are also interested in Czech glass here in Norway. They're decorating with bright colours. A mix of colours and patterns that seem to have come from the pages of the comic books!)
I'm glad to hear Czech glass is appealing to people in Europe as well! From all I hear about Norway, I think you all should rule the world
Love the furniture. The Mahogany
Watching replay. I was watching the weather when the premiere aired.
I like what you did for your friend, your help with his space made a big difference. That mall is worth exploring
It's good!
I used to get those cats as gifts all the time through high school. The perfume was horrible. The cats were cute.
Glad you could help your friend with your great ideas!
Me too!
So there never was a Sunbeam logo jadeite butter dish? Fascinating!
No, that is a fantasy item made in the 1990s
George, wasn't it a " catalog company" that made all these so called jadeite pieces? Block black lettering, rooster egg holders and such come to mind.
@@silverstatepicks yes offshore imports
Thank you George for taking us along on this great adventure of wonderful beautiful things and lots of knowledge.
Thank you so much for your videos! I had a misfortune, I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I also created a channel and am trying to move in that direction, but so far not very successful((uh
Hi Donna, so glad to see you in comments again and thanks!
@@TheAntiqueNomad Your welcome.. love seeing all of your adventures. 🤗
I really like the painted horse head at 18:30 +. And the lladro and Wedgwood just after.
Just a fabulous review...always delightful. Loved so much and learned so much as always. Thank you George.
The aluminum casserole in your friend’s booth looks wonderful! I’m going to email you…
Oh my u don't know if I'll ever learn half of what you know George you make me fill like waiting before I start but honestly going out you learn something every day😊
Automotive stuff works great for making stuff clean and shiny again such as Armor All and plastic restorer or headlight restorer for that plastic Dome of the cat would work perfect🎉
I like the art deco pitcher and bowl at the end that you said is damaged and might not sell. I know shipping might not be an option, but I like it for a reduced price.
Please send an email to me at TheAntiqueNomad@gmail.com
Flipping a booth makes a really big difference . People just can't see everything all the time !
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
New Jersey here, ready to enjoy along with all your other friends ❤
So agree on Royal Winton! I've a small collection of the Grimwalde square salad plates: the orange one has centre colour instead of on the edges, and a blue and yellow. Love the art deco pop of colour, the cool edge designs, and lines of the square shape.
Yes, I really like pretty much everything they did!
4:20 Bowling collectibles (I find) are hard to sell. They are also VERY available . In this day and age of Vulturous Pickers ; beware of "stuff you see all the time in the wild". It's ALWAYS there -- for a reason. ( Same for GOLF and Tennis . Golf , Tennis and Bowling enthusiists are perpetually getting related gifts ..and donating them 40 years down the road) .
One thousand thumbs up !🤩👍
So much to look at. Beautiful items. Thanks for the video 😊
Utube transcribed your words to say you were cutting his face in half !! 😂🤣😂🤯
Great video! Enjoyed seeing all the czech glass, especially since I am dealing with some now. Thanks for your help!
I’m a fan of Wedgwood alternative colours Some really interesting things and I like the idea of you helping your friend revamp
I am too! I'm hopeful it will help him move towards his overdue retirement
I enjoyed the unique intent of this video George! How fortunate to have you as a good friend who can take that serious look and identify not just pricing strategies but to also know where the buyers are for certain pieces and styles. And then for you to be able to get them into your locations where they are mist apt to sell. Smart ideas 💡 ❤
Thanks! I just want to help where I can.
thanks George
Always exciting!
Love a secret mission ! Thank you for your video! He has a nice space.
Some really lovely pieces here. I particularly like the black vase with yellow spatter base. I have a fluted yellow cased milk glass vase with a black snake coiling up it, (unmarked Czech I believe…1920s/30s). Art glass and signed bronzes make me happy.
I enjoy some pieces by my Aunt Yona who was a California Potter, and have a nice collection of wood carvings (figurative mostly), from Africa, and Indigenous West Coast Canadian…although my Yoruba pieces are the real stand-outs there.
I have a selection of pottery pieces, but focus on no particular factory or Artist…just on pieces that catch my interest. I also have a small collection of figural carved gemstone statues…and antique kitchen tools and utensils.
There is more of course, but you show enough of things in my areas of interest to keep me coming back. I wish you occasionally crossed the border into the Toronto area.🖤🇨🇦
Love watching, I am from Buckinghamshire U.K
This looks like an intriguingly fresh type of content. I'm really looking forward to it!
It's a little different in some ways!
Thank you so much for your videos! I had a misfortune, I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I also created a channel and am trying to move in that direction, but so far not very successful((uh
This video was jam packed full of amazing items!! Your friend should do much better now! I’ve noticed refreshing by moving around, changing heights, etc. helps resellers. As a buyer, sometimes it seems to overwhelm the brain & many items don’t even register so icing around helps! Those chrome pieces you took were awesome!! Thank you, as always, for a great video!❤️
That's true! I overpack my booths to my detriment
Love listening to you, very interesting!
Re that French armoire. Here in the UK because they have shelves , rather than hanging space, we would call that piece of furniture a linen press.
Yes, that is correct actually! At least in English parlance.
At 10:48 it is not Princess, it is Mayfair Open Rose cookie jar.
I want one of those StarBurst so bad
Your amazing and im learning so much thank you
Boy! I would love to come shop there! That Squash Blossom is to die for gorgeous! The leather chairs, the mahogany desk, the elephant bookends...big sigh.
So many good things! I only got to take the elephants but I wouldn't mind a whole lot else
Nancy brought thst glitter bsck, for better or worse 😂
Good evening, George! I liked all of the crucifixes on that table. The solid white one, hanging on the wall I really liked. There was what looked like a statuette of a figure playing a trumpet, when you were showing the Sophistocat perfume, that really interested me. It looked like it might have been bronze. I have one of the tall orange and yellow swung vases that was my grandmother's. Not exactly my taste, but it was grandmother's, so I keep it. That Czech glass was beautiful. I tend to go more for the Czech pottery, though, in the browns, tans and cream colours. I definitely like your friend's taste in items! There was a milk glass vase, on the 1920s octagonal table, that looked like it used to be Goofus Glass...all of the paint was gone, though. Loved that bamboo shelf that was in your old space. I really liked that Austrian fish set. That Loetz bowl was fantastic! I liked all of those trench art pieces, and the bomb tail. All of those together made a really nice display. I liked the old propeller, too. There was a small pond boat, next to the small ship's wheel, that I really liked. That Blackamoor lamp looked like she had an ear of corn on her head 😂 That wash basin and bowl, that has damage, could be donated to me 😉🤣 I liked it. That was fun! Thanks for taking us along!!!
I like the crucifixes too! I noticed the trumpeter and forgot to speak about him. I remember buying swung vases for $15 and getting $35, and people saying I was crazy because who would want such a thing! I could easily mix Czech glass and pottery...I did see that ex-Goofus piece and ignored it because of the damage. The Loetz was fantastic indeed, and the trench art was one of the better collections of those I've seen. I'm glad you had fun and I'm excited to show the progress!
@@TheAntiqueNomad I have a pretty good-sized collection of crucifixes...and nowhere to hang them. I still like them. That trumpeter looked like it might have been a jazz influenced piece. I bet you wish you had all of those swung vases back that you sold for $35. They sell for considerably more than that now. Some of the Loetz can rival Tiffany, and that piece definitely fit into that spectrum.
Anything from the Arts and Crafts era always catches my eye. Was that a Stickley chair and bookcase?
They had the look, but were not Stickley, sadly
I’m in Naples so a St Pete’s visit is not out of the question…
Nice day trip!
Hi George! I have never seen that green Wedgewood with the angels. Though it was quite lovely, it was way to pricey for my budget. I liked the bowl also but not a fan of the silver trim. thank you for letting me know you had filmed them. $50.00 is about the max I can afford to spend to indulge on my collection. The ewer I got from you is still my favorite.
I'm so glad to show you! Maybe you'll find one at a bargain price. I prefer the untrimmed as well.
I just started to watch you these past few weeks, but so much information. There are way more artists that I have never heard of. I'm really excited about learning and how to identify them. Do you have a video or some where to print out the information of names, marks, and what material they use. Can you help me? I have Fenton, lenox, viking, depression glass, fostoria, Warwick China, blenko, murano, milk white, milk pink, and a green piece that is frosty but shaped like a piece of milk glass. You and The.Cult.Of.Vintage. you both do know a lot. So I've been watching you two as much as I can.
So can you help me with what I asked please.
Thank you 😊
I'm so glad you're enjoying the channel! I'm sure I've talked about most of those pieces, for more info you might look into some old collectors' reference books on those subjects
You make my day
5:28 OMG! I never saw a YELLOW one. These were a THRIFT STORE / YARD SALE STAPLE for 50 years now ! Normally in Black. LOL. Within the past 10 years , they are on the decline. I have a feeling people are just throwing them out now.
George's friend Tiffany has a fun channel. Its called Thrifting Vagas 😊
Hope u enjoy asmuch as I do !
The time for pricing is befor the sale. I wish I knew what stuff was going to be worth when I was flea marketing in the late 90's.
Yes! and yes.
02:00 Some dealers I know call those chairs Spanish Bordello, because it looks like what they imagined a Southwestern whorehouse would have used.
Dr. Lori says antique brass is becoming more and more popular. What do you think?
Brass is becoming more popular in general, both antique and vintage. I'm actually seeing more interest in vintage brass (1950s-80s) than antique though
🛑🛑🛑🛑 CORRECTION: In regards to your statement about the sequin shiny fashions. In the 1970s and '80s these clothing items became popular due to the disco era and unlike your statement about old people it was actually young people that wore them. In the mid 1980s into the 1990s yes older ladies started to get shiny and wear sequins, especially jackets. - THE VELVET LOUNGE LIFE sends 💜
The style of the clothing items were more Golden Girls than disco
Did you consider doing a live with some of his stuff??
I have considered and hope to do when time allows!
Enjoyed your teachings again,George. Thanks a bunch. How much is the Rosenthal vase?
I think it has a chip. If you still are interested, email me at theantiquenomad@gmail.com
It was pretty large. Black with bright colored flower, I think. Went by fast
Hey George...love your videos as always! Are you up in WA state for the shows up here this week? I sent you dm fyi. ❤😊
I finally got there!
would he ship? I would like to see more of his stuff
can do
Inactive feet? LOL!
Question: do you have a "protoge" or someone that you are teaching your knowledge to exclusively?
No, I'm trying to share with as many people as possible this way!
😊😊😊😊

Im located near Placerville CA. Is sourcing the same up north as it is here? Very slim here. Is it good in Seattle or do you go sourcing across the country because lack of stuff on the west coast
Placerville was a great place to source the last time I was there, but it's been awhile! I find plenty on the west coast, but it is more towards a certain era or type of thing...I find different stuff in the east, and it all together makes a fun combination of things to sell for me
✌🏼💚✌🏼💚🙏🏻
Hi, what are your thoughts about buying pieces that may have some damage for personal use not resale. Typically how much discount is fair?
Depends on extent of damage, 20-80% depending
29:11 What is the white piece shown here? 🤔 I have a lamp with the same design!
That's Consolidated Glass Line 700, it was later made by other firms and I don't see lamps often
@@TheAntiqueNomad ty!!
George, or anyone have an idea what a red glass bottle that is almost flat (about 1.5" depth, 7" tall and 5" across" with a cork in it would be for? I can't find one like it anywhere! It has slight seams on the sides, and a "2" or an "S" on the bottom. It looks like blown glass though. I don't like listing something that I haven't identified or at least narrowed down the time period.
Found a similar bottle but it has a different bottom than mine:
www.ebay.com/itm/404173774105
What old did you make look new again? Nothing.
The point was that we were making the old stuff in the space that had been forgotten look fresh. I do occasionally repurpose things, but that wasn't this video
3:07 I think it's DISGRACEFUL to put items out "for show" / "not for sale" .. at an ANTIQUE CENTER ! I have seen this done MANY MANY times and I see NO POINT to it .
If it's NOT FOR SALE ; BRING IT into your HOME. It's only going to frusterate your customers .
Great video George! Thanks for sharing !
