A lovely way to send a Sunday afternoon, antique shopping with a friend where I am not tempted to retrieve anything. So much fun to watch and sip a cup of tea in a vintage teacup. Thank you for the tag along.
The cigarette holder would look nice with roses
Most beautiful thing is to hang oyster plates on the wall in a dining room wish they weren't so expensive ❤
Cigarette frog would be a beautiful makeup brush holder.
I could stay there for weeks on end. Just loooove the Spode Cowslip. So unlike what comes out today. Thanks for sharing.
It always makes me smile when I see it - it was what my grandmother used for everyday when I was a child. I wish I had it!
Idea of repurposing cigarette holder is storing your lipsticks in them.
Flower buds would be great in the cigarette holder
I immediately thought that planter looked like Jackie O!
Yes, it does look like Jackie Kennedy.
Your friend Mark needs to show us his collections!
The lamp has Arts & Crafts elements. Neat! ❤
So tempted to load it in the car.
I’d use the cigarette holder as a serving piece for Lindt chocolate sticks on top and assorted chocolates on the lower portion
Love your suggestion! 🤎🤎🤎
the cigarette holder i would put flowers in them.
Always enjoy your trips to antique stores.
The cut glass pitcher you showed with the flower pattern for $125, I have an extensive collection of it. It started with a pitcher my Mom got in1955 as a wedding gift.💖👍
Love watching your videos, it’s like I’m shopping along with you! And that pink dress you’re wearing is lovely. 😊
In the cigarette stand I could see the Merci brand chocolates in them for Valentines Day! They are long and slender in beautiful wrapping like a cigarette!
Love your channel and all I’m learning!!!❤️
Lonny's booth is a feast for the eyes with a wonderful variety of both stylish and whimsical items that create a such a magical setting!!✨✨✨
Thank you for visiting with me at AG ANTIQUES. The Blue Willow Story is very interesting: Once upon a time, Koong-se a young woman of great beauty fell in love with Chang, her father’s accountant. Enraged when he discovers their love, he banishes the obviously lower class young man and constructs a wall to enforce their separation.
Daily the girl walks to the property’s edge and stands beneath the willow tree, gazing out across the sea and dreaming of her love. She despairs when she learns her father plans to marry her to a Duke.
But on the evening before her wedding, she escapes with her one true love; they race across the bridge and flee on the Duke’s own ship!
Sadly, their union isn’t meant to last. The Duke tracks them to an island where they’ve built a beautiful life, and he slays Chang, leaving Koong-se bereft. She dies of a broken heart.
The gods take pity on the pair and turn them into doves, allowing them to fly together forever."
(Story credit goes to: adirondackgirlatheart.com History & Values of Blue Willow)
47 Blue Willow Plates!! That was a surprise. I not only love to see what each shop has to offer - but I enjoy seeing how all the goods are showcased and the way they compliment each other. Lady Mary Beth, you must love what you do because it really shows in your informative and creative videos. Thank you :)
I am like a kid a candy store. 🍭
Thanks for telling me about the new Waterford Chrystal !
I used my footed crystal bowl to showcase my own collection of sea glass pieces I found along beaches. Filled it with water to highlight the colors. I'm going to do a before-and-after video of me cleaning the bowl out because the calcium built up and left a ring. When cleaned it is stunning to see in the sunlight.
I'd use distilled water if I was you...or no water at all 🤔
You are one of my favorite channels to watch. Always so informative. Lovely voice to listen too. I feel like you are speaking just to me!! TX has such wonderful places to shop for vintage. I am jealous here in eastern VA. Thank you.
Perhaps a day trip of thrifting would be fun. Yes, we are blessed with great shops in Houston. Hope you are well!
Thank you for the information about the vintage pieces
Great Show! Thank You and God Bless!
Glad you enjoyed it! I appreciate you watching. 😘
I agree it's Jackey..
Wow! I really enjoyed this visit. What a wonderful collection and so educational. I thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge with me.
As a German immigrant living in Kentucky I’m so impressed by your German language abilities and your pronunciation. I thank you for your efforts to use the language correctly, it shows skill and respect for another culture. Also, that strawberry blouse looks great on you.
Thanks.
Beautiful pitcher for your collection🌹
THANK YOU MARTHA
Loved this video! I really enjoyed seeing the furniture this time, usually you skip.
Great Antique Store 👌 👏
This segment was a real treat. I loved the silver tray. Do you recall how much it was? Thank you for this wonderful installment!
Yes! She does resemble Jackie Kennedy.
Such beautiful things you featured today! Love love the Blue Willow! 💙💙 Brings back memories of dinner at my Grandma’s house ❤️
It’s a classic pattern. Glad you have sweet memories of Blue Willow. 💙🤍
Pleasant surprise
Nice! I loved the tour. ❤️
Hello Lady Mary Beth, yes that headvase is Jacqueline Kennedy. It was produced after JFK was assassinated. Very collectible. Thank you for sharing all your expertise. Take care. Sincerely, Diane😊
Thanks for the info! Thought it was the former First Lady, Mrs. John F. Kennedy. Lovely!
Happy Valentine's Day to you and Family. Thank you for taking me along to appreciate and learn
Your little girl stole the show! I love seeing parents teaching their kids and letting the learn to think and be creative. Plus she had her little girl Boss Bun going! 💖💕 Great Vid!
I just bought that pretty pitcher that you said was 100 years old at a estate sale this weekend for $35.00! Thank you for showing it because I didn't know anything about it. That was my first ever estate sale to go to. I have been binging on your videos and learning a lot.
Excellent find and great price. Enjoy your pitcher! ❤️
@@LadyMaryBeth Thank you!
Such a lovely, comprehensive assortment of antiques and vintage collections! I especially loved seeing the oriental rugs and lamps!
Beautiful items 😊❤
Oh yes crystal and burlwood calls to me as well!!! That was a gorgeous chest of drawers❤ and I think the Waterford paperweight is gorgeous.
Wow, they had so much gorgeous crystal 😍
I love the Orrefors raspberry votives. My mom recently found one in a charity shop for $1!
Thanks for taking us along, wonderful shop 🥂
Thanks for unque experience
Thanks for coming along to AG Antiques. Such a fun shop!
I’m sure that you are aware, Copeland china was later bought buy Spode. This blue and white set is very old as it doesn’t share the back stamp with Spode. I’m envious!
Yes! You are correct about Copeland Spode. The colors are perfect for all seasons.
Absolutely love your channel and expertise! Thank you for sharing!
I appreciate you! Filming the Houston Glass Show tomorrow. Stay tuned for a glass paradise. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍💗
Hi lady Mary Beth,their is some beautiful glass items .My mom had those plates when we were small children .sending much lv Ann uk ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great memories with those plates. Kids today growing up with paper plates can never understand the connection to tabletop and family. Love hearing from you, Ann! Wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
This was a wonderful video and tour. So many treasures. Thank you so much.
Those gold and black glasses ❤️❤️❤️
That chest of drawers would be mine. Yes, I agree re storing spirits in lead crystal. Keep in dark bottles away from light but serve in something stunning x
Thanks again for a quality video!
Just love shopping with you.
Over the top for me
28:48 I collect the white version of this Versace pattern, it's Rosenthal Studio Line, patterns Mythos and Ikarus. It's so hard to find! I was lucky to find the coffee pot on Etsy but the seller didn't package it very well and it broke in the mail 😭Broke my heart.
This store is amazing! Really enjoyed the video, thanks!
So sad that it arrived broken. Thanks for the pattern insight.
The cigarette holder would make a darling flower frog! Didn’t know they even existed, thanks for sharing!
Drooling over the fish service with MOP handles!!!!!👀
Love all the vintage Drinkware 😍
The basket weave oyster dish looks like majolica. Good idea, silver tray used for nativity scene base for a Lladro nativity or even interesting juxtaposition with a rustic nativity. Yes, it is Jackie Kennedy. Looks like they have Wedgwood Williamsburg potpourri pattern.
Lovely vintage finds…..butiful stuff …love them 🇨🇦🙋🏼♀️❤️👍
Thank you for a beautiful tour! Absolutely fabulous!❤❤
It does look like Jackie Kennedy
Fun shopping with you, thank you
Everything was Gorgeous, especially the Wine and Glassware💜💜Thank You for Sharing💜💜
OMGoodness - so many pretty things, my head was spinning!
Great video! I was there semi recently. I got a bunch of antique bottles for $1 each!!
Incredible deal! 💖
I loved the giant brass deer!!
Please do not think this is morbid, but, beautiful lidded ginger jars make stunning cremation urns. Even unique cookie jars are individual for them.
In my dealings with Fiskers, I found their customer service a cut below.
I have Waterford from the 70s so feel lucky to have quality pieces.
Thank you, Lady Mary Beth, for sharing your knowledge of so many beautiful pieces.
I also love the brass cherub holding a bowl!
Enjoyed my evening shopping with you. Could have taken a number of treasures home. 😆
So much stuff and Great info! Fantastic video please keep us updated on what you find out on the crystal replacement. I really wish I had that need 😟Definitely see Jacqueline Onassis in that piece❤ and a huge, thank you for the glassware at the end. I am so into Culver right now.💚💛 Thank you ❤
Wow! Another amazing Houston shop! I live in Oklahoma City and am going to have to make it down there soon!
Beautiful , thanks for sharing. Stay safe and have a blessed day. 👍
Thanks, Belinda. Enjoy your Sunday!
Fabulous lacquerware panels. Great idea to use as a backdrop in a bedroom.😊
Oh, I want these. A room renovation is in order.
Thank you Lady Mary Beth for introducing us to this antique shop. Love the chaise long, crystal rose bowl, cigarette frog which I would use for flowers or makeup brushes and definitely looking for a set of porcelain oyster plates and sterling oyster forks. (Very hard to find)
I love those golden chairs, so pretty. Recently went to an antique shop and got this antique biscuit jar from germany. I don't know how old it is, haven't researched it and it has a few chips on the lid. I also overspent on a jade cat
Yes the vase looks like Jackie!
Hi Mary Beth. This was wonderful. So many beautiful things. And made much better than most things these days. Oh my word...I sound like my grandparent!
I agree...looks like Jackie. Take care.
@6:53 I purchased one of these about 25 years ago on an antique shopping trip near Dallas. It even has the original box
The planter did look like Jackie Kennedy to me. I will need to visit this store as well. They have a lot of beautiful items. Thank you for taking us along!
Mary Beth!!! I purchased 20 Churchill Blue Willow plates a few years ago and they are my every day dishes and have added antique serve ware pieces to the collections as well as bowls that are dishwasher safe. I also collect green and white porcelain ginger jars and vases which are so so hard to find, I will be calling the store! Always look forward to your videos and learning something new!
I may use the cigarette dish for spring rolls...or carrots sticks and celery sticks 😋
I collect, blue and white. I love it
Love Biedermeier
I have some blue and white lamps and ginger jars, but they are Qing dynasty. I love them.
Fabulous!!! 💙💙💙
@@LadyMaryBeth Mary Beth, I envy you. You have such wonderful antique shops in your area.
@@Veronica-pv3qh Houston welcomes you!
@@LadyMaryBeth thank you! I’d love to visit Texas one day.😁
My Goodness so many beautiful items..you looked so beautiful in your pink .I wanted those gold and white chairs they're fabulous ..I'd have to rob my husbands safe ...lol
I don't know if you answer questions ..but my husband bought me a beautiful piece of crystal and the only marking on it is an acid etched of a. M ..on the bottom
A sculpture with a Gothic “M” would be Mats Jonasson. Maleras Sweden has an “M” logo.
What a wonderful antique shop! I have seen the antique cigarette frogs used to hold Pirouette cookies at a local Mother Daughter Tea service!
Love this idea! 💗🤍
I want to shop with you. You have great knowledge. So much fun.
Florist carnations interspersed with smaller carnations varieties for the cigarette holder. You could change the colour of white carnations to match holder, decor or occasion by putting food colouring in the water. Have done green for St. Patrick’s Day as well as pink and blue for baby showers. Think tea and miniature roses would work well too.
Hi Mary Beth! Love your channel and just subscribed! I was wondering if you have accidentally ever broken anything special? Thank you so much for your elegant content and way of living. You are uplifting and inspiring!!
Our resident cats have broken many treasures, including precious family heirlooms. 🐈 Otherwise, the humans have kept breakage to a minimum over the years. Thanks for subscribing! 😘
Hi Lady Mary Beth,
I’ve done most of my antique hunting in Germany. I just visited my sister in San Antonio, Texas, and of course I could not miss the chance to visit the local antique and thrift shops. This was my first time antique hunting in the U.S, I was shocked with the prices! 30, 50 bucks for ceramics that in Germany would only cost 1 or 2 Euros. Why do you think this is?
Grüße von Kleve 😊
Liebe Grüße aus Houston! It’s all about market demand. This generation in Germany has no appreciation for fine tabletop. Their version is IKEA and all white. This means you get deals at the Flohmarkt. Sterling and silverplate is much cheaper on the secondary market in the U.S. Shop the best of both worlds. 🌎 🌍 🌏
Hello! How about lipstick if they fit or on your desk with pens and pencils?
A sarrenguemines in Houston? So jealous!
Looking at all this, all I can say is that "I am not worthy."
LMB, thank you for all the wonderful videos! Please, if you ever come across a Waterford dish commemorating the Statue of Liberty’s centennial in 1986, I’d be so grateful to know where to get it! My late Godmother (who was my mother’s older sister) got it in NYC when she and my uncle were there that year, and they generously gave it to me. As I was walking to my china cabinet to put it in a safe place, I fumbled and it shattered into hundreds of beautiful pieces. I was shattered as well. I live in Houston, and look wherever I go, but so far no luck. Thank you again for making information so beautiful!
Replacing this commemorative plate is possible. Take a look at this one on eBay: www.ebay.com/itm/194265821393?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=-IoNQNNHSYC&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=BzYU9CtVSA-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Thank you so much! I like to touch and feel glass, so I hadn’t even looked on eBay, but I may just have to bite the bullet. I hadn’t realized that they were numbered, and that there were so few. It certainly explains why I haven’t found it in the wild yet! ❤️😊
Yes it looks like Jackie Kennedy.
The first subsriber to view this.
Awesome! Glad you are watching!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👌
Dear Lady Mary Beth... May I ask how much the Waterford lamps were and what would be a fair value these days? As always, it was a lovely presentation. Thank you for taking us along. 💕
I inquired after filming, since no visible price tag. Lamps are $195 each and this is a great price.
@Lady Mary Beth Thank you, and yes, they are! Wish I was closer. Interestingly, I am yet to find a pair that I love here in NY . The search continues.... 💕
Do you sell any of the items? I love the purse.
👍👍👍👍
Cigarette item can hold your makeup brushes on your vanity.
