I enjoyed you ladies too! I am with you, just because we are grandma’s doesn’t mean we have to dress like it!❤❤Ya’ll are just awesome. Beauty isn’t an age!
The jewelry so reminded of my mom. When she and dad would be out at a party or get together. They would come in the door and mom would whip off her high heel pointed toe shoes and pull off her clip or screw back earrings and give a huge sigh of relief. The mid to end of the 60's.
George you always bring us along for the fun and learning! And your companions are fascinating women and fun too. Thanks for doing this George it feels like shopping with an old dear friend ❤
Frame 13:48 What you said about shoulder pins, made me thing of the Librarian at our Jr High. This was in the mid 70s. I guess she was retired & just making extra money, because she was very old. She always wore a enameled butterfly on her shoulder, If you managed to get on her good side ( a rare thing ), she would tell you a story. She said the day her husband to be, proposed to her, a butterfly landed on her shoulder & she knew he was the one. Never did find out when she started wearing the pin ( she had a couple of different ones ), she might have started after he passed. She also said her sister married the " Whistling Brakeman ", a country singer from a long time ago. Just an odd thing from my past, but I do like the Lizard Pin. :~)
Gotta tell you, George, I feel very grateful and fortunate to have you in my life. You have enriched it immeasurably! Thank you so much. Signed: a devoted fan.
Some of my best memories were going through my Mother's jewelry box. I loved trying on all the jewelry. I thought we were rich with all those jewels! Just can't get enough! It's just so much fun! I love the Rhinestones! I really enjoyed seeing all the jewelry! Thank you!
Oh! The real deal jewelry. That’s where my money would go if I won the lottery. I LOVE the real thing! There is some spectacular high end costume stuff here too. And semi precious. Omg. ❤️👏So what if I don’t go to the places to wear it. I’d just sit in the walk-in closet and admire it.
I loved the leather fringed necklace or collar at the first of the show. I know I could pull it off. My students and people who know me are use to me wearing things like that. I have a lot of turquoise, silver Native American jewelry .
I like the Asian pieces too! It's a great area to collect, and the Japanese pieces seem like relative bargains now that the Chinese market has taken off
I really liked this! Very interested in the new booth owner too. Lovely ladies. I admire them ❤️🐩 The I Feel Swell print you have is right up my alley!
This was fun George. Yesterday we went to my daughter’s house for our 7 year old granddaughter’s birthday and she was wearing one of my mother’s brooches. So sweet to see a new generation attracted to 1950’s costume jewelry. She will be able to wear the real stuff when she’s a little older.
Love this antique store. Thank you. Dying to go to Florida again. This is what I was looking for. See all your videos. And I have so much fun. I have to go or tell my daughter to find this antique store.
Thanks for the education, I like the way you explain everything and your voice is so smooth and soft. I know to look for a mark on the back now and to look for the condition of the piece.
Love this video George! OMGOSH i learned so much and drooled and dreamed even more! My Mom had a few small Kokeshi dolls that she used to hang at the top of the Christmas tree every year. I am not sure if my Dad or Uncle picked c them up on their travels in the Navy. But she did have some unique things and I don't know where they ended up 😮 I should have paid better attention. Some of the jewelry! I had a good amount of marcasite that I collected in the 80s along with all the Contempo costume jewelry. And I let my nieces play dress up with all of it. 🙄 Mom also sold Park Lane jewelry and Avon. She loved turquoise rings and squash blossom necklaces and pins. Your channel makes me want to just sit and chat! ❤
How neat! My dad brought back Geisha dolls in cases for my sisters, but the Kokeshi dolls somehow escaped his notice. I really like those! I liked 1980s marcasites a lot, and I'm glad to see that look coming back into jewelry. My mom bought Judy Lee on occasion, but never was a distributor. Your mom's taste in squash blossoms definitely is current again!
Hi George! What a great video! I enjoyed watching it from end to end. Now then. Did I hear you correctly when I thought I heard you say that if I saw something in your store that I liked and gave you the screenshot with the time stamp you might be able to pull an item for me? Well! That time stamp is 38:37 The item in question is a kind of ginger jar vase, on the taller side? I really can’t be sure? It’s green painted porcelain with a red oval cartouche painted with golden lotus flowers. Towards the lower area of the cartouche, there appear to be a pair of seated figures, a mother and child? Again, not sure. It has stuck my fancy! But here’s the thing. I would be buying the item for a space that I do not currently have. We are in the middle of a big move from California to Colorado! So excited! So…. I would dearly love to have this piece, but exactly how tall is it? Can you tell me something about the maker? The style? Age? Price? S&H? Is this vase something you’ve seen before? I’m trying to find out if this is the only one on the planet as it were, so if it IS, I could be convinced! Uh oh. Or is this a common run of the mill thing that they made a zillion of and if I don’t grab this right now, there WILL be another one along at some point. But it’s the colors that are sending me over the moon! Ohhh dear. George, I await your reply. Thank you so much! Lauri Hyde
Hi, Lauri! I'm glad I spotted your comment. It is Victorian milk glass with screenpainted designs as you describe. It is about 14" tall I believe, and maybe 7" wide? If you are still enamored of it, send an email to me at theantiquenomad@gmail.com, it's at Andrea and Friends in St. Petersburg and I'll have to make sure it hasn't sold, but then I could answer your other questions too. I thought it was one of the more interesting 1870s-80s Aesthetic Period pieces of glass I'd seen!
the open back with a stone is also for ease of access for cleaning the stones people often times think its to let light through but on a lot of jewelry what light is getting through when worn against the skin? that would make more sense with settings with cut outs along the sides not the back.
07:20 I want to hit that yellow set with a blacklight BADLY. Czech probably, and it may well light up. 11:54 The dragon's breath pin was killer. Mexican? Late 40s looked like. Old Pawn is a marketroid term for "we jacked the price up and wanted an excuse". Dead Pawn was sold to pawn shops and never redeemed; Pawn shops functioned like banks sometimes. Pools of Light are round quartz balls, and NOT drilled. Never drilled. And not cheap if you manage to find some. Even the glass ones are $illy money. 25:57 I'd have guessed Nepal, but Tibet..somewhere like that. The buddhas turn up but I've never seen a collar like that either. 29:58 Deco...kindasorta, but that filigree actually predates the Deco era and overlaps it a bit. The MoP stars in silver are generally Israeli. I've got one here only marked with silver content. The shell is often synthetic, which doesn't hurt the value since it's expected. (I used to sell jewelry on line, but know enough to know I don't know that much about some things. )
I like Bohemian, I know some people are distinguishing Harrach from other makers in terms of value. I find the non-traditional styles do the best in Bohemian glass for me
When you said "end of day glass" I thought it was art representing the apocalypse LOL, but it just means using up what's left at the end of the day. That's funny, because my brain did see that red splattered piece as plausibly symbolic of a catastrophe for a minute.
I do enjoy your posts. You mentioned on perfumes, "If the fragrance is still there and good, they are sold for the fragrance." How do you tell if the fragrance is good? I always thought perfume went bad after time.
Hi George! I got in just a little late on this one. I think YT had a mix-up on the date for it. That hair receiver was pretty. We have a few hair receivers here. A couple are R S Prussia, and one has the hidden figure. The Czech necklace was fantastic. As far as jewelry goes, Czech and Victorian are what catch my eye. Loved the large pond boat! I'd like to have a room large enough to get a collection of pond boats. The chandelier in your space is fantastic! I wish I had space for that Russian samovar. Looked like a fun experience. Thanks for taking us along. Hope you're doing well!!!
That was my fault, I posted it at 12:02 am this morning and did not realize we were on another day, TH-cam always pushes it out a day and I didn't catch it! I'm glad you got to see it though. Do I know about the hidden figure in RS Prussia? I'm not sure I do, might need you to send a picture. I'd like to have a pond full of those boats! The chandelier is a pretty one, and I always like samovars. I'm glad you had fun coming along with us!
@@TheAntiqueNomad I might have used the wrong term for the R S Prussia piece. They are known more as "hidden image", than "hidden figure". I'll try to get a photo of the hair receiver and send it to you ASAP. I have a few pond boats, but those are something I've always really liked, so I wish I had space for many more of them.
Well you cannot source Victorian jewelry at Goodwill or most thrift stores, how is it sourced? (In my best Billy Crystal accent) You... look... marvelous darling in the African military hat! lol That was fun yay!
39:32 vintage clothing is still very in. Who is buying has changed. I am in a shop that is in a collage town and I specialize in 80s-Y2K. I sell several thousand dollars worth of it every month. I know a lot of people don’t want to hear that the year 2000 was 24 years ago but that doesn’t change the fact that it is. You have to change with the times if you want to actually sell things. I just look for wearable, quality pieces.
Mr. George antique nomad. My question is---Do you ever buy Roman Catholic religious items? I am a collector of statues, pictures, rosaries etc. etc. etc. What ever I can get for cheap.
George! At time stamp 23:42 there is a Mexican silver bracelet with rectangular stations and green carved “stones”/glass. Can you give me a ball park on a piece like this? I have looked for one like it for YEARS. I want one with blue glass, but I’d settle for the green. I had one when I was in high school that I saved up for to buy myself. Then in college I had a roommate who stole it. Could you pick one up for me if you see it in your travels? Let me know. 🙏🙏🙏
OMG GEORGE!!! Thanks for taking Marilyn & I along on this video adventure. it was such FUN!
It was so great to do this with you! People really enjoyed you both
It was lovely to meet you both. I am a twin to x

Vintage silk scarves are a winner for me
I subscribed to fashionista 80 and glad I did.
She's found some beautiful clothing in her ventures.
She has great tips
Thanks George.
Oh cool! I thought she had some good ideas
The sapphire rings in the beginning. Absolutely stunning
I loved browsing with you today, You are so good at explaining and giving us the origin. Enjoyed ❤️
The jewelry was AMAZING! Wow- I was just drooling!! Thank you! ❤
That hidden room is the bomb, your friends are so cute
I just love this little shop. So much neat items from all different eras and places. Thank you for your kindness showing us all these goodies.❤❤❤😊❤❤❤
Nice items, you are an expert. Thank you for sharing
Really enjoyed your chats throughout the episode. What knowledge these ladies and of course you have. ❤

Thank you for all your fun videos, George 😊
I have collected Judith Jack marcasite for years and years.
I learned about her from Katie at Vintage & VInyl!
What a great shop! Always learn something new from watching you! I love that.
So much fun, George!
Lovely people and beautiful items 😉
So much beautiful jewelry! 🏵🌸🌺
I love all that beautiful jewelry!!! It was so much fun! 😁👍
Me too!!
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
What a treat!
Oh! The real deal jewelry. That’s where my money would go if I won the lottery. I LOVE the real thing! There is some spectacular high end costume stuff here too. And semi precious. Omg. ❤️👏So what if I don’t go to the places to wear it. I’d just sit in the walk-in closet and admire it.
Amazing shop fun to watch California thank you
The jewelry is gorgeous.
Loved seeing the jewelry, always good info, thank you
My pleasure!
I loved the leather fringed necklace or collar at the first of the show. I know I could pull it off. My students and people who know me are use to me wearing things like that. I have a lot of turquoise, silver Native American jewelry .
I bet you could! You wear that hat well and I can visualize that fringe on you.
Glad to hear marcasite is becoming popular again. I have about 15 pieces that where my mothers, from the 80s and 90s.
I really enjoyed seeing the Asian pieces! I collect Kutani and other Asian Porcelain pieces as well as Satsuma and Arita Buttons.
I like the Asian pieces too! It's a great area to collect, and the Japanese pieces seem like relative bargains now that the Chinese market has taken off
I really liked this! Very interested in the new booth owner too. Lovely ladies. I admire them ❤️🐩 The I Feel Swell print you have is right up my alley!
Thank you! I'm glad it was fun for you too. That print makes me feel swell!

I just loved that video. What a journey ! Those gals are so full of life and they're who I want to be when I grow up 😊
This was so much fun to go shopping with you and The Twins!! Loved it!!❤️
This was so much fun love going along with ya'll beautiful pieces wow
I had lots of fun checking out the jewelry and the rest of the store. Thanks for the shopping trip George. Have a great day!
Great viseo!❤❤ I love vintage jewlery!😊
I’m a vintage clothing fan often looking for vintage at thrift stores. I have an awesome long spring coat .
Andrea and friends is my favorite shop in StPete and one of the shops I miss now that I am back in Illinois full time
Love this antique store. Thank you. Dying to go to Florida again. This is what I was looking for. See all your videos. And I have so much fun. I have to go or tell my daughter to find this antique store.
I look forward to all your videos George, especially the video you'll post just after Mother's day so we can all be introduced to her.
I'm looking forward to it as well
I’m loving the jewellery - the bigger the better!
Big is the best as jewelry goes!
Sapphire are the gem that you can get in any color.
Yes! They're amazing that way. I'm mostly used to seeing yellow, blue and clear though
Your booth is beautiful!
Thanks!
Thanks for the education, I like the way you explain everything and your voice is so smooth and soft. I know to look for a mark on the back now and to look for the condition of the piece.
Aloha All !♡
Aloha!
That turquoise jewelry! 😮
Yes! It's a fun store
I have a Miriam Haskell set that has coral. It is fabulous.
Great video with your friends!
The twins are adorable
I will let jewelry wear me! Thanks for this great tour!
Wow George! Now where is there a place like that up in the Inland Northwest? I'd go broke in the sterling jewelry section!
Well, Boise's Overland Antique Mall had a lot the last time I was there...
I love Depression Glass.
Hello George from Oregon! Your in my home state! ❤
I will be in July at the Rose City Vintage Market, along with Laura Caldwell!
@@TheAntiqueNomad I'll certainly try to meet you. 😊

Great ladies and grand stuff. Do you think bohemian glass will get more popular? I have a vase is probably Harrach but not positive. Hard to value
I like Bohemian, I know some people are distinguishing Harrach from other makers in terms of value. I find the non-traditional styles do the best in Bohemian glass for me
@@TheAntiqueNomad now ill check out non traditional styles lol thx

Queen Louise of Prussia in the head wrap.
Thank you! I keep forgetting she was a popular figure on decorative items of that era.

I do enjoy your posts. You mentioned on perfumes, "If the fragrance is still there and good, they are sold for the fragrance." How do you tell if the fragrance is good? I always thought perfume went bad after time.
It really depends how well it's sealed. You can tell right away if it doesn't seem sweet when you open it.
How weird is that ??! Michael Cult of Vintage found the cameo shell in his episode today too !! He bought it !
Oh yes! We do sometimes find similar stuff, he has a good eye
Marjorie's space is always a highlight of going to Andrea's. Love going through all the little stuff.
It sure is fun! I always seem to find something there

On the Mexican pin that you thought to have an agate center, I was thinking butterscotch amber. Did it not feel like that to the touch?
That was my first thought but I don’t associate Mexican jewellery with amber, so agate is possibly more likely as it is found in the area
That was my thought also, Lynne
I hope he does as well! I hope to get up there next year to sell/shop
This is so much fun! Thank you. Do you ever come across any O.E.S. jewelry?
Occasionally! Please send your request to me at theantiquenomad.com
Well you cannot source Victorian jewelry at Goodwill or most thrift stores, how is it sourced?
(In my best Billy Crystal accent) You... look... marvelous darling in the African military hat! lol
That was fun yay!
Thank you! I source jewelry at flea markets and private collections for sale, usually. Occasionally an estate sale will have some too
Oh I hope you snapped up that Trifari at 10:11 it would sell for double right now, old Trifari is raging on fire on ebay these days..
39:32 vintage clothing is still very in. Who is buying has changed. I am in a shop that is in a collage town and I specialize in 80s-Y2K. I sell several thousand dollars worth of it every month.

Mr. George antique nomad. My question is---Do you ever buy Roman Catholic religious items? I am a collector of statues, pictures, rosaries etc. etc. etc. What ever I can get for cheap.
I occasionally do, particularly Santos and related figures. I don't seem to find much lately though.
I looked for their store, couldn't find it😢
George! At time stamp 23:42 there is a Mexican silver bracelet with rectangular stations and green carved “stones”/glass. Can you give me a ball park on a piece like this? I have looked for one like it for YEARS. I want one with blue glass, but I’d settle for the green. I had one when I was in high school that I saved up for to buy myself. Then in college I had a roommate who stole it. Could you pick one up for me if you see it in your travels? Let me know. 🙏🙏🙏
I see them around $75-95 usually, but the blue are a little harder to find and may be a little more. I'll keep my eyes out!
George, at 42:31, the canister set?
