The man who does your work on the knives and the frames is an amazing find and your idea of making them into a lovely item is a treasure!
Hi Wanda. He is the same man who will frame the riffle for my son. I hate seeing aunties thrown away so turning the odd knives in to a display made something beautiful and gave the knives a new life.
What a find ...those parrots are superb
thank you very much
Glad you got those Parrots, that lady was just annoyed that you got to them first!
Thank you very much mate
The candle sticks were an amazing gift! The price asked plus the Christie’s sale would have me wondering about possible theft.
Hi Wanda. Thank you for your comment. Buying stolen items is always a fear with art Amd antiques but these turned out to be ok.
Love the candlesticks. When confronted with the idea that I will make money I just say, we all have to do something because I need to eat just like everyone else. The antique business is like a big revolving circle. There wouldn't be an antique business if it didn't work like this. A person makes money off an item and then the buyer makes money off the item. This goes on until there is no more extra to be made and somehow it is recycled right back into the public at auctions or estate sales at a really low price to start the cycle all over again. The one thing I have learned is that people never want you to make more money off their items than they do but if they understood how it worked we wouldn't have this problem.
Hi Brandy, thank you for your comment, i agree with you totally, i even know a man who smashes his items he bins to stop anyone else having them. personally i dont agree with it, save the planet and give the stuff away keep it out of landfill
@@AntiquesArena He smashes them because he has no appreciation of them. If he did he would want them to be passed on for others to appreciate.
Best wishes from Ireland, i love your video,s a down to earth man you are,
Just so you know the published Christie's price already includes premium and vat it would have been a hammer of about £1100. Also I think they are possibly repro. Have a look at Cheffins auction tomorrow 12 September lot 358. Exactly the same pair. I've found a few examples, my guess is these were made rather recently, but still of high quality there is no question.
For anyone who is curious and lazy the lot 358 mentioned above sold for £420
@@minarima they seem to be very available for around £250-350 on various websites, clearly produced to deceive as Christie's specialists were fooled by them. As I've sid they are of quality manufacture but they are not old.
i have had a look online myself and found lots of examples, will see what comes of it and will take them to london next time i go
the head on the parrots you have are pink but in the Christies they are Green mottled feathers.. otherwise they look the same - might be a different painter that finished them? i hope they are original though and either way an AMAZING find!! well done Ed. ;)
Thank you very much mate, i will take them to be looked at next time i go up london
Love the parrot candlesticks, Walter! Over here they call that a "Home Run"!
Thank you very much mate
Those parrot candlesticks are so beautiful! Such detail! Oh yes, I would keep them too! Incredible price! My Goodness! I can't believe it, those are the same as Christies! AMAZING find!!! That ivory knife display is fantastic! ♥Gracie Bell's manager outfit is adorable! XX
Thank you very much love, xx
The candle sticks are breathtaking. Gorgeous.
Thank you very much Brenda
spectacular finds wow and having seen these in the flesh lol wow just wow never seen anything like them outside a museum truly spectacular sticks
Thank you very much mate
Nice addition to the pension pot well done.
Thank you very much mate
Jaw dropping. Stay lucky Walter. I'm about to buy as a collector not a seller an ancient venetian latticino vase. He wants 5.00 and it needs a repair. Valued at 1.000 upwards Now, I'm more than please to buy damaged High quality. Also, I might gamble on doing a renovation to the glass. So I'm an artist by all accounts and I've worked with glass. Do I have a go or just be contented to observe the beauty of tht intricacy. Must dash. Told you my budget was 30.00 per week whn I bought yur torty fan. Fun nd games!!)
Love the candlesticks. What a bargain.
Thank you very much Katharine
Well done Walter, nice to have something to keep for your retirement. I don't think that I would let them go either. They really are a work of art 👌
Thank you very much Barbara.
Hi Edward I have been re-selling myself for about 4-5 years and I have been meaning to sub to your channel after watching you on numerous chats etc. You really know your stuff and I look forward to learning and improving myself with some of the techniques you use. Great result on the parrots and never even thought of using Christies to look up items that have sold years ago :). Look forward to watching more of the videos soon Edward
Thank you very much for your comment, i hope you enjoy the channel, thank you for your sub
Those candlesticks! What a glorious find Walter! I would have to take those back to Christies and get them re-valued...............................and then sit on them, I wouldn't sell either! Thanks again for another great video :0)
thank you for your comment, i will be taking them back when i go there next
Delighted for you for your great buy. Thoroughly deserved. And I'm really enjoying your videos - starting watching them only last week. Really educational and entertaining!
thank you very much
Happy dayz with the candlesticks.
thank you very much andrew
Hi! The “cross” of cash coins is really designed to look like a dagger or knife. However, traditionally, they are made longer to look like a straight sword to hand on the wall to ward off bad luck and illness. From what I can see, the coins used in yours have a pretty big date range. I see a coin from the Tang Dynasty to Qing Dynasty. If you email me close up images of it to coinpicker@hotmail.com I’ll happily ID them for you as that’s my forte. Usually I tell by the type and age of the string used in order to determine when the item was crafted. Traditionally, red cotton string was used. Very old ones fade to pinkish colour string and plastic twine and die cast or pressed out repro coins used in very modern ones. Great finds! Cheers! CP
Thank you very much, i will send some pics thank you, appreciate it.
Love the shirt.
Thank you very much
one in the eye for the gobby bint pal haha what a touch ! those framed up knives would look good in nice dining room
Thank you very much martin, tbh mate the more i am getting known on here the more it is happening
@@AntiquesArena remind them you're money is as good as anyone elses and do they want to sell it for what they are asking or do they want to stand and barter with numerous people to get a sale i know what i would do
Well done walter. Great find
Thank you very much scott
Nice knives, everything is outstanding
Thank you very much
what a brilliant idea with knives....
thank you very much
Love the Candlesticks, I would personally keep them but each to their own. I get it all the time at the booties with fellow dealers gobbing off and moaning 'oh why you sell to him, he will sell it on for alot more' Some people just need a smack in the mouth but think that is the reason misses and kids come with me so I don't get in trouble haha. The reason I do this buying & selling job is mainly to be with the family more but also to find these little treasures that would never be in my possession through working for someone else. The items I have accumulated over the years which I love is why I wake up at the crack of dawn on a weekend and stand in a cold field rummaging through boxes and bags. Love the video and congratz on a corker of a find.
Thank you for your comment, i agree with you totally, and thank god the family do go with you lol, i came close but held back hahah
Judging by the way you described the quick reaction of the other stall holder, I have a sneaky suspicion the stall holder didn't want to show their hand and had someone high tailing it down to buy it for a song. If i'm right, imagine how gutted that woman was when she saw it was a pair 😂😂... nice find. Don't feel sorry for the seller either, if you can't immediately see the quality there, there's no excuse, well done 👍
Thank you very much Charlie, appreciate it
What a great find good for you.
thank you very much
Wow what a great find mate, best £16 you could ever spend!
Thank you very much
A cracking Video Walter
Thank you very much
Your correct( jealousy) is the word, people in glasshouses should'nt throw stones.
Thank you for your comment margaret, appreciate it
Lovely pair of candlesticks but I fear they are most likely reproductions you can buy on eBay the very same from Germany for 322.90 pounds but at only 16 pounds still a bargain great video as always Edward many thanks for your videos
I had to have a look for myself, yes 300+, but look again yourself, nowhere near the same quality and not worth 30 quid, in my opinion anyway, the eBay ones that is. With Walter's find, the quality looks to be there, although you'd have to see them in person to be absolutely sure, and I agree, one way or the other, fake, don't think so, or real, a bargain 👍
They maybe neil but they are real amazing quality, i will take them to london next time i go,
Thank you very much
I hope you realize that you're going to have to show us your baby with that cute t-shirt on.
Hi, thank you for your comment, she is at the end of todays film
7:03 Oh my gosh the hedgpig is superb Walter
thank you very much, i love buying swarovski
Nice idea with the knives Walter but dont you think fork handles would be better lol.
On a serious note though always watch your videos and everytime learn something new.
You deserve that find Walter. Hard work always reaps rewards.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you very much John, appreciate your support mate, you always comment and they mean allot.
All good! Do a buddha video.
The candlesticks are a bad copy
Great haul and I must commend you for thinking outside the box with regard to the ivory-handled knives.
I am a collector of almost everything but on a smaller scale with the hopes of one day opening a not for profit museum. In the meantime , I have a monthly collectable corner on my job
And use everything including non collectable props and a history lesson to grab people's attention and get them to become interested in our past and its relics.
My credo is that everyday that goes by is our past and all things created by us and/or nature becomes a treasure from our past.
Your knives would look superb in my future Restuarant business.
Thanks for your excellent collectable ability.
hi carol, thank you for your comment, i hope you get your museum we need to save all our history
8:56 Yea I think they are Walter
thank you very much
Great find, they are really nice, but I don't really like that you pinpointed exactly where you bought them from. I would bet that that someone sees this video and will know who the woman is and recognise the items.
Chances are that the woman who sold you the items will now find out how much they are worth and will be devastated.
Thank you for your comment, i appreciate where your coming from. tbh the lady who sold them to me didnt care about the things at all, and when she learned i was an antique dealer offered me more bits
I believe it is a sword not a cross.
thank you very much robin you are right
Hi my partner shown me your video send me the pictures of that cross plz.
I use to have a successful TH-cam channel I set this up for my partner. So plz dont be put of with low sub count.
The cross to me with a double cross on the handle, from your video which reminds me of knights templar cross.
A lot of symbols represents this cross for example EXXON mobile is the best example. Anyway please if you like send me some pictures I will have a look as well. Thanks.
Thank you very much, if you give me an email address i will send some images

Hope your ok. Thanks for getting back to me.
What are the laws about selling ivory? Where do you think most sellers at the car boot sales find their items? They apparently don’t know anything about what they are selling!
thank you for your comment, there is a bill trying to be passed to stop antique ivory too but atm it is legal if its older than 1947
