More to See Than Ever! | Vintage Vibes & Antique Attractions

- We've only been in this newly expanded designer and decorator antique mall for a week, and we're selling up a storm! After we fill a few empty spaces to preserve our space's look, we spend most of our time looking through this huge place that's busting at the seams with us fresh new vendors of antique & vintage wares.
It's a work in progress here! Some dealers have their look together, and what a look it is. Spaces filled with high-end MCM designer furniture, a wall of Blenko glass and art, a row of 1910s sideboards and cases of jewelry including real Chanel, Tiffany and Fendi tell us that this is a serious place for collectors and decorators to buy.
Other spaces are just now forming, and there's some bargains and buys in the midst of the chaos (is that a dead body on top of that stack of chairs?!). We see how too much furniture makes a fun display when you have high ceilings, find a very old sign from a long-forgotten area store, and poke through piles of signs, tables of Vallerysthal blue Portieux glass and a shelf of vibrant Arabia pitchers.
How will these wonderful vintage items fit into a collector's look at home? We talk about our own "look" (do we have one, and how'd we get it?), and how I try to group things so people can visualize pieces in harmony, while incorporating cool vintage and antiques into their own style.
Then we head off for the last big new section, where serious decorators present furniture by Adrian Pearsall and Milo Baughman with fun shapes and motion-filled 1960s design, set amongst rosewood dining sets, rare Robert Maxwell garden pots and a 1940s shoe display that makes you want to do the kick-step!
This place definitely has "the look," and we'll be back again to see how it develops as the piled-high back room finds its design ethos too.

Isn’t it marvellous that I am 5000 miles away in the centre of England and I get to browse a vintage store on the American west coast and indulge my passion for all things vintage? Thank you so much George.
I love that about this so much! I hope someday to get to go to England and share your vintage and antiques with Americans. Glad to have you watching!
George.
I can always depend on you to show me wonderful things! Thanks.
Lots of great design furniture and art. But also some fun and whimsical things. ❣️
Yes I've learned so much from you and CLL. My sister couldn't believe how much I knew she started testing me it as fun
That's really cool! I want you to know all I can think to tell you
I still have a few Dream Pets from my childhood! My Dad hung them from the ceiling in front of my double closet. Memories!
Your eclectic interests and looks add to your varied knowledge..that Rosewood table is sigh...thanks again for another wonderful post.
My pleasure!
WOW on the armadillo basket and the Robert Maxwell!!!!
You and I share some interesting tastes! I would love to have just one of the Maxwell pieces...and now that we're getting lots of armadillos in Kentucky (sadly mostly seen as roadkill) I'm strangely fascinated with how people have used their hides
Nice looking at and hearing about all these pieces ! 😊 Thank you George. Take care and be well 😊
That shoe display looks like a pop art sculpture!
Anytime a dealer styles their booth and makes the effort I always appreciate it,,tells a story,,shows how you can display items
Nice to hear the new space is going well.
Congratulations, George..
Sorry I'm late too!
Lol it will not go on your permanent records
This move has turned out to be a great thing for everyone involved, that is wonderful. I kind of like the "grill plates" I seen them in the Willow pattern but I never cared if my food touched, I usually scoop some of it all together anyway to eat, especially the potatoes and vegies. lol Have a great day and safe travels
Defo colors 🌈 Pattern worked very Well too
Fun video George! Thanks for sharing!
I Love that wall
I’m so happy it’s going so well at the new location for you! I love these videos where you go through and speak about different pieces. You could do so many in this new location!❤
Well done on your sales ! Well deserved
I used to go out and collect stuff around the street is there was so much good stuff on the street just for the fun of it🎉 I found one of those fireplaces in an alley in pieces mint condition the orange red color came home and sold it for $1,300 in 2 hours🎉
I like the wall but I would not have that furniture on it. It’s a statement piece for sure. Need a couple of big Victorian plants on the sides, a funky gold floor lamp and two chairs either side. Preferably yellow velvet.
I’ve convinced myself! Imma do it! Lol
Ooh okay I see that! You should lol
Wow what a great first week!
While George, that NT mall is so big, it would take me Uber a year to go through everything but what a year.
I love It❤😊❤😊❤😊
George, I like a colored wall. I guess I'm a boring person LOL.😅😅😅
Personally I avoid clutter booths ,and for the wall I couldn't see anything else ,and for you empty spaces congratulations 🎉
Wild George. I love the hawaiians space. There is so much there to see.😊😊😊😊😊😊
I love the Arabia pottery!
It always feels fresh and bright!
Love the graphic black and white wallpaper but a fun bright color is also nice as a backdrop
Off-topic George but your skin looks so luminous you're just looking great!❤
Thanks!
Jan, thank you so much for the Super Thanks! I promise it all goes to get us to the next place to find and share this cool vintage stuff
Love wall textures
I love the contrasting colors, the sign wrapping the corner, but the heavily patterned wallpaper makes it hard to see the objects on the shelves. Maybe a band of that wall covering a bit above eye level with a contrasting solid wall color below and above would work to draw your eye, but not compete with the objects on shelves? Love seeing it all!!!!
The wall covering is perfect! It makes the items pop because they have used items that complement the wall covering. Very decorative, I love it.
For me it all gets lost in the wall covering.
❤❤❤
Thanks for the update on your space and the mall in general. Per my last comment, I can’t get enough of the tours of both your own space and the mall in general. Thanks again. Much appreciated!
Beautiful space, a lot of designer furniture, but I figure this was always expensive. I'm glad to hear you've had a terrific start to your move. My favorite was the bottle cap mirror. I love my walls, even after (yikes) 30 years. I painted, (sponged really) to look like they have a very subtle depth. Every video I watch of yours I quickly type in at least one thing I want in my life. Today was Bauer Pottery :)
Good evening, George! Loved that bamboo hall stand! That seemed a good price for it, too. I don't think I've ever seen one in bamboo. I much prefer displaying on colour. I'm not fond of the "landlord white". With me being an artist, I understand white as highlight...it goes on top. I'd like to have that Dole pineapple map. That Russian lacquer box was fantastic! Looks like that mall is coming along quite nicely. Lots of interesting items there, and the prices seem really fair. Thanks for the tour!
I've seen but one before, similarly priced, much harder to find than just the bookcases! I'm with you about color, unless you have such a colorful collection that white brings it together, it's just too museum-like for me. The Dole map almost got framed for my apartment, but I didn't really have room. Wasn't that a great lacquer box? That whole display was filled with the kind of true antiques that are interesting enough to be worth having for conversation's sake.
I'm happy you showed that bamboo hallstand. The Victorian bamboo pieces are something I really like and appreciate. Colour, as a background, "seats" things well, whereas a white background "pushes" things away from it. If museums would use even a grey background, it would accentuate the artwork they have much better. That Dole map was fantastic...if one has space for it. It's going to be a rather tedious...and exhausting...task to place my recent acquisitions, so I well understand having to leave something you'd really like to own. @@TheAntiqueNomad
I loved the booth with the heavy patterned back drop! I think it set off all the lovely items on the shelves quite nicely! And the color-blocked booth really opened up the space and complemented the many treasures!😊
The busy wall would be a great idea if you were selling the wall instead of the items in front of the wall. A plain white or black background is best in most displays.
I do think that was very high contrast for background, yes
The Herschell Carrousel factory and museum are located in North Tonawanda, NY on the Niagara River....about ten miles east of Niagara Falls. It's a great litle jewel of a museum. If you ever make it to Buffalo, it's worth a stop.
You would be a great teacher!
At first I was moaning about not living close and unable to travel. Now I think it's a good thing because I'd go broke, lol! I would be in here every week and I already saw at least a dozen things that would have come home with me. Such a great place, George. Congratulations for being a part of it.
Loved this tour! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Oh my gosh, the kit purses gave me a flash from the past. My grandmother would get all kinds of kits in the mail, and I would love to know what she was making. I guess that's where I get my love for crafting❤❤❤
9:41 very modernist for the time! 10:53 ooh! Those lithos call to me. That Hull planter I emailed you about would look great in that space!
I better go look for that Hull piece again!
@@TheAntiqueNomad oh yes!
Wall is too busy. Thanks George for the video.
Franciscan Madeira was our first set of dishes and the dark green glasses like you showed tonight. I still have them …all boxed up in the basement.
All fascinating!
I'm newer to your channel and have a question. Did you used to work with the Antique Road Show and do appraisals? I love watching all this now. But I remember hating it when I was little and my Mom loved it so we watched it lots. :)
Hi sorry I’m late!!!
Well have fun watching anyhow!
Congradulations, George. So glad everything is going well for you. Enjoy seeing all the wonderful pieces and learning about them. Some I like because I grew up with them, and some I find I don't like because I grew up with them. I agree with you that if you find something you like, then there will be others that like it too. Thanks for sharing, Cat
Wonderful stuff. Its been awile since ive seen good stuff living where i do
Coors 'used to be located in Inglewood, had a factory there ...they relocated elsewhere - the brand was bought by somebody in Texas-- it's now defunct... orange Metlock had a lot of lead in the glaze I wouldn't eat off of those... Southern California & Pasadena & parts of OC were the hot bed of pottery designers...
Great video George. Thats an amazing store.
Will have to visit the new location--thank you for the overview!
What an amazing mall with so many lovely treasures!❤😮
I agree with the grill plates, recent Corelle ware does make a good lighter version in white. I prefer restaurant grill plates!
The tall modern pair of Japanese lamps, years ago I sold a pair like that for $600, there's another shade that actually goes on top of them
.. fellow drove up from San Diego at the request of his wife, open truck fortunately I had boxes... it came out of a Japanese household, they were sold in some of the Japanese furnishing stores, the ones I had were 5 ft tall...
Thanks so much George.
Great video! I love seeing how the antique mall is evolving. I'm finding it very interesting. It's a behind scenes look at how it works. Thank you George!
Cool! I'll give you some updates as it progresses
I made it down to Lander today!!! The long trip from Burien! LOL Didn't find anything I had to have, but found lots of beautiful stuff! Found your spot as soon as I saw the Haeger candle pedestal. I really considered the little (art deco) dancer figurine you had, but until I get a new house I am soooo short on room! I had to tell myself NO!
Thanks for the introduction to Arabia Finland Pottery. I'll need to keep an eye out. I like color behind the displays but find the heavy designs on some wall hanging/rugs distracts from what is in front.
Arabia is so colorful and joyful! I think in retrospect that the same wall pattern in a very light grey would work much better
Can't go wrong with Antique White!
OMG! A Chihuly glass piece for $50? Did I hear that correctly? I'd be on that so fast. I've seen his work in a few installations, like the Phoenix Botanical Gardens (they kept a couple of pieces) and other places. If I still lived in the US, I'd go get that piece. Wow
Yes! Seattle is where so much was purchased in the 1980s-90s, now those estates are downsizing and it's coming to a new generation. I just sold a really nice sized piece for a very low price myself ($135). They won't stay that cheap!
I love the new spaces. I'm afraid of color. Or all my Kitch.
Sorry but wow what a fun space! I’ll need to make a trip out there. Thank you for sharing with us, George!!! 🤗🤗
I think I would need to see the wallpaper display wall in person. I found it hard to focus on in the video.
21:21 OH MY GOODNESS: Nemophilist Nay LOVES that forest picture!!!! If you’re near it sometime again, and you could write down what it is, I’d be very grateful. 22:45 beautiful and yes, good deal!
I'll try to remember when I get back there!
I love your excitement!
Thank you! I am having fun
Ahh those Viking patio lights. I need them. Why must I be across the country?
Really enjoyed watching your video and so many cool things to look at. I loved the white plate hanger with the 3 blue & white plates. Congrats on your good business and I hope your new location contains to work out for you.
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations on all the sales in your new shop. It looks so great.
Dear George; Great tour ! The Santa Anitaware was fun to see. I have found pieces for 50 cents many times in my area of New Bedford, Ma.
I loveee blue Opaline! I just started a little collection mainly ones that glow under blacklight!
Neat! I know some have that certain chemical to glow
I prefer textured walls. Hi George!
12:26 what age are those flamingos? I paid $40 for an 80s one… and I wonder if that Parrish is an old print. Probably not-wrong frame. 12:55 Eep! That mushroom!!! 😍
They were 1950s era and thus the price difference. Meanwhile the Parrish is an old print but was crammed into a too small frame later on
01:15 I have that cat! Arabia pottery is great stuff. A local dealer has me grabbing all the Ittala glass I can find too. Walls... the plain is too plain, but busy walls hide stuff.
I found some of the pretty and busy paper at my goodwill and it was contact paper!
Sir George, I don't know where you're going to be on Saturday October 28th from 8am-3pm & Sunday October 29th, 2023 from 9am-3pm but I'd love to extend an invitation to the South West Focal Point Community Center Flea Market @ 301 NW 103rd Avenue in Pembroke Pines, FL. 33026. They do one every 4 months but because of YOU I've been going through my own, my mother's and my sister's life time acquirements. I must admit WE have a ton of items to get rid of. I'm really looking forward to this event and the monetary end result. I'm certain that your schedule is full but I must selfishly admit that your presence would make my day an even bigger success. With that said...please join us if your hectic schedule is permitting 😊. Thanking you in advance either way,
Kelly...xoxo
Oh I wish I could! I'll be in the area but not until Winter. I hope you have a wonderful and prosperous time!
@@TheAntiqueNomad Thank you Sir George...I'm certain with your good wishes I'll do great !
You grew up in Kitsap? My mom's side of the family are all from Poulsbo, Suquamish, Bremerton (going further back)! My mom and both of my brothers went to NKHS. Both of my grandparents were born in Seattle, but they were in Kitsap (with my great grandparents) by the 1930s. My mom and her siblings all grew up in Poulsbo! Now I'm wondering if anyone in our families know/knew each other?
I love miniatures/salesman samples. I have a tiny Toby jug, a tiny earthenware crock, etc.
The cigarette machine is amazing! LOL
I have a question about something--I used to hear that anything over 50 years old was an antique, and anything over 25 years old was vintage. Have those rules changed at all? Or were they never even rules in the first place?
Wow! My dad bought land in North Kitsap, we lived near Island Lake but then he parlayed that into a house and property near Brownsville. I was two roads south of going to North Kitsap schools, so I doubt our folks met.
Probably not. Small world, though!@@TheAntiqueNomad
Looking good, wish I could visit. Doesn’t the Rosewood table require some kind of certification to be sold?
Was the sample desk a Steelcase? Looks like my dad's from the UN - he was gifted it when he retired. Now he has moved on and it's in my basement and I wish I could sell it.
It sure looked like a Steelcase to me! They are fantastically well made but fantastically heavy
Textured and colored walls, please.
I have a Chicken in the Rough by me. I wonder if it's the same. Canadians come over all the time to eat there. I'm a boarder city.
Being from the south, it seemed there were a lot of high priced but wonderful pieces in that mall. Where do the people there get their money from? Thanks for sharing ! I would love to travel there!
Love the patterned walls.
We're they talking about your stall in the store or the way you dress? When they asked about your look?
Your look is a mostly Florida look.
That cigarette machine is in working order and everything is "lit". That was funny. I hated my food touching as.a kid. Corn juice on my roasted chicken? Yuck! American food is made to be separated unlike foods from other countries that are made to be eaten together. My Indian food can touch all it wants. Yum! I think you may have meant to say Adrian Pearsall on that chaise, not Milo Baughman.
Whatever happened to that big, silver 1980's table you and Xeno picked up?
It sold in Florida almost immediately when I got it there
Would love to go there but?? Where is it?
Seattle
Solid or soft colors better for walls. If the colors are too bright or ‘loud’ my eyes are drawn to the wall… not the items… and sometimes it could make me feel dizzy. Keep it simple…
The heavy textured wall makes it difficult to appreciate items at a Distance which is what you see before going into the booth. We really did not get a good close up. I vote probably not.
So many thing but way to expensive for me
Wall paper was distracting to me. I really couldn’t focus on the item
Wall design was too much!
It may have been so heavy that things disappeared against it
I thought the same
Plain but colored wall for me. Too much texture and I feel like things get muddled and out of focus.
The heavy black and white design wallpaper is a bit too busy and distracting to me. It’s hard to focus on the items on the shelf. JMO
It cost money for advice.
Everything got lost in the wall paper,not a fan at all !!!!
