Florida Antique & Vintage Haul! I Fresh Finds on eBay

Vintage & Antiques on eBay I Georgia to Florida Shopping Haul
Catching up with consignors and shopping my way to Florida and back packed my van full to the brim! Suddenly there’s so much antique and vintage supply, I had to list on eBay immediately.
Here’s some of the haul, and while we just scratch the surface, I looked for a variety of items to put into this video and out in the marketplace! From a fascinating photo album to Fenton vases made six decades apart, there’s a lot of variety to show and tell here.
Sgrafitto is a funny word that describes a wild 50s Toreador ashtray by an obscure California maker. Other surprises pop up, including a resignation letter with a famous signature, ivory that isn’t ivory and a shaving mug that is (and isn’t) Torquay pottery. Fun 1960s and 70s pop culture items, a camera built for two, Sherlock Holmes’ pipe and a Presidential cigar are other standouts.
Collections to be sold include a lot of fine quality porcelains that were new 30 years ago but now are seasoned vintage collectibles. We discover that Faberge eggs, Italian flowers and Lenox ladies still have ready buyers, and talk about how these things which are just now leaving their original curio cabinets are selling today.
While telling why they’re significant, I also discuss what I hope to get for the items I’m listing on eBay. Most of what you see in the video is currently for sale or listings that will go live at the end of the video, so resellers and the curious can follow along and see what the market will bear for them!
Here are some more of the items we see along the way in this tour:
Seiko Kinetic and other diving watches, Weller Zona kingfisher pitcher, soda fountain collectibles, Andrea by Sadek, Fire-King peach luster, tagua nut carved netsuke, Venetian/Murano glass, uranium glass, Imperial folding knife, DeForest onion jar, Limoges and KPM porcelain, Westmoreland candlesticks, lucite candles, scarab bracelet, Treasure Craft Santa, Norcrest Christmas planter, Joe Cool, etc.

Thank you for being such a great teacher about vintage and antiques and collectibles. I learn so much from you in a clear and concise way. You are the best! Keep up the good work! I will be watching!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! I’m glad you’re watching and having fun, I’m so pleased to see this Antique and vintage community grow

[@rickeydonald4756]

I know I am being picky, but the shaving mug is actually called a shaving scuttle. There are videos on how to use that type of scuttle. Patrick at THM in his live sale on 5/28 (1 hour mark) had a Simmons Calif #120 ewer he sold for $8. It was hand painted, reminded me of Hedi Schoop. Take a look. I think this was a real sleeper! If viewers of Dr. Lori ever found you, then they would jump ship.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I appreciate that! I've heard of a scuttle but hadn't made the distinction. I love doing this because we all share info and learn more this way. The Simmons pieces and a few others were made by people who either worked for or copied Hedi Schoop. I'd love to have (some of) Dr. Lori's viewers, so spread the word lol

[@cherylmellblom9736]

I jumped!

[@thequirkysquirrel5449]

I jumped ship too I like how considerate and kind your are Being aware of the collectors feelings about their objects when you appraise items

[@mjmj2860]

George I just love watching you and your neat things you find just beautiful! 🐈❤😒

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! I like the beautiful to the homely, but this one has lots of pretty

Hey George I found your channel 3 days ago and I haven't watched anything else on youtube since lol I love your channel ✌💕

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh, thank you, Debby! I'm glad you're having fun with it. I sure enjoy sharing this world with my viewers. Please like, subscribe and tell your friends!

Great video George! Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@Jen39x]

Andrea of Sade’s made a baby bird collection in the 1980’s. I would get them from family for Christmas just as you mentioned and they were sold by a jeweler at the mall that had crystal and porcelain. The baby birds were very affordable as they were smaller. I’m thinking that I should collect the porcelain that I couldn’t afford since there’s not many of us interested anymore.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I know some people who are taking it up because they couldn't spend $75-100 per figure but they can afford $25-35. All items go through a 30 year garage sale cycle until they start to be rediscovered and collected, so now's the time

[@aseretstudio1724]

Hello, George. Thanks for sharing. I was excited to see you had posted a new video. I will check out your listings early tomorrow.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Cool! I hope you find something you like, if it isn't on eBay email me

[@sarijarvinen6255]

Hi again George! 😍 Again, as always, I learn so much from you. 😊 The luicite candles, are they for sale? When I search theantiquenomad on eBay or click your link to ebay it only says that no results found for sale. 😔

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh shoot I bet I didn’t list those but if you’ll email me at [e-mail] I can set them aside

[@sarijarvinen6255]

@@TheAntiqueNomad the sad thing is, I can't see any of your listings for sale on eBay. 😔 Don't understand what the problem is. Have sent you an email now though. 😊

[@sarijarvinen6255]

@Lakota Sky I have him in my saved seller list and when I see all of my saved sellers, I see that George has many listings, but when I click on him it says no results found for listings on sale.

[@lynnedelacy2841]

When Victoria was on the throne we still had an Empire - the Commonwealth came later when countries gained independence and it is a what you might consider a friendship group founded in 1931

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you for explaining that! Like a lot of Americans, I've used those terms interchangeably but you're absolutely right that there's a difference.

[@cherylmellblom9736]

George, if you ever taught vintage and antiques at a college or university, your classes would be standing room only!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I taught a vintage ceramics class in the 1990s at a junior college in Centralia, Washington once... I went to be a student but the instructor had fallen ill and they were going to cancel the course so I convinced them to let me do it! It was great fun

[@cherylross2718]

When I was very young, I watched my two aunt's come home after a Beatles concert. The younger one came running in crying to her room. The other (2yrs older) came in cool, unbothered. My grandmother started to yell at her for not taking care of her sister, and wanted to know what happened. Sue said " nothing, she hasn't stopped crying since we got into the stadium." 😆

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That’s a great story! My cousin was younger than my sisters and apparently would roll around chanting Ringo’s name when they were on TV. I wasn’t around for it

[@cherylross2718]

@@TheAntiqueNomad 😹😹😹. By the way, I played "Crime of the Century" yesterday whilst gardening. Love it!

[@mignon4474]

George I grew up in Bremerton. I went to school at Our Lady Star of the Sea. And my sister and I modeled at Bremers.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Wow! My family moved to Kitsap in 1976

[@mignon4474]

The Antique Nomad we could of crossed paths and never knew it.

[@Msviolet65]

I have a dear friend who currently lives in Bremerton.

[@SandyMoulder]

George, you have wonderful finds. If you come across old photos, negatives and books with name Moulder and Langley they were lost in the USPS between FL and DE. I will gladly purchase them. Thank you. Shoppemod aka Sandy Moulder. Love your videos.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi, Sandy! The chances are slim, but stranger things have happened, and I do shop in both DE and FL.

[@danielkessler3133]

As always you find great stuff. The removable tops to the your brass candlesticks are a variation of bobeches (designed to protect the candlesticks from dripping wax). Giving vases with flowers is really the polite thing. A host or hostess has little time to arrange in a vase wrapped bouquets given to them by guests at arrival. I always think of the brutalism as being more textural and less flowing than those examples you showed. Always learning... Thanks for your vision. 👍🏽

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! I hadn't thought about that, of course those would serve the same purpose as a bobeches. I agree about bringing flowers in a nice vase, preferably something not new from the florist made to be thrown in the trash. Brutalism is often more textural, it's a word that perhaps is being co-opted a bit too broadly these days.

[@kimeverhart6253]

George, When I look at your eBay store, I find mostly books, baseball cards and other ephemera. Am I missing some of your store somehow?? 🤷🏼‍♀️ I love your video, BTW!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! I have a helper who keeps those categories up all the time, I sell on eBay when I have time or the right item but I have so many shows, retail spaces and people ordering from me from videos that I don't always have time to do eBay

[@glendafromaustralia1625]

You have some interesting collections George. I’ll keep eye out on Patrick’s channel re your cameras. Thanks heaps. Glenda from Australia ✨

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks! I'm looking forward to showing more about some of the things I got in large quantities

[@robinw.darnell4269]

I have a couple of booths at Treasure Hunt in Powder Springs, did you happen to make a video there?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I did, Robin! It was the week before this, it says "Shop with Me" in purple in the thumbnail. Really enjoyed that mall! I got through most of it but not all before it closed for the day, so hopefully I included some of your stuff

[@theresahales8804]

Love the 70's vintage paneling as your backdrop. ☮ Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 🇨🇦

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! Welcome from Canada. The paneling is not my favorite but it's certainly of a time

[@diannacashion2047]

So much fun @The Antique Nomad...💃💃💃

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks! I was glad to have you on the chat

[@timhazeltine3256]

The 1920s photograph depicts Ali'iolani Hale in Honolulu. Built in the early 1870s, it housed the Hawaiian Kingdom's legislature and high court. Today, it's the state's supreme court. The building is a very early example of concrete construction.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That's right! It's an amazing building, much nicer than the 1959 state capitol that replaced it in my humble opinion

[@timhazeltine3256]

@@TheAntiqueNomad Yes, it's across King Street from 'Iolani Palace, the Monarchy's official residence. As you mentioned, 'Iolani Palace was converted into the executive building housing the the president and legislature of the short-lived republic of Hawaii, which ended when the US annexed the Islands at the end of the 19th century. Then it served as the headquarters for the territory of Hawaii and later the state. The Palace was restored in the early 70s after the much unloved modern capital building was built nearby. I toured the Palace in the late 60s, just as the restoration was getting underway. For most Hawaiian people and kama'aina (long-time residents who do not have Native Hawaiian ancestry), 'Iolani Palace rather than the 1960s-70s capital, is the preeminent symbol of Hawai'i. Next time you're on O'ahu, take a tour, fantastic history and splendid late 19th century interiors including an exhibit of the Hawaiian Crown Jewels.

[@curbdiggercarl]

You always got the coolest stuff, but I'm clueless on where exactly on eBay are ya?

[@marymackay4]

Lakota Sky thanks

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

TheAntiqueNomad is my handle

[@curbdiggercarl]

@Lakota Sky Thanks Lakota! I finally figured it out, I was typing in "antiquenomad", one word, not "Theantiquenomad", one word. I be slow sometimes. Okay, I be slow most times.

[@juleslorraine9885]

George you again have some great finds! Some things like Fenton vase we would have bid on but unfortunately we are in Canada. We have reignited passions for Murano, Fenton.......it is amazing how much beautiful glass was displayed by parents of baby boomers like us and now that we are retiring can have an appreciation for the beautiful pieces.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so glad to hear that! Yes, our forebears had good taste. I know the shipping makes Canada hard, I've sent some things there but it costs more

[@selestewithans]

We love you George and Patrick you both are may fave guys..never bored and so informative ❤️❤️

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so glad! Patrick has a nice way about him

[@annemiller8399]

Loved the cigar reference!

[@lynnedelacy2841]

I just love the ease with which you come out with info on anything you pick up Thank you for sharing your years of accumulated knowledge with us The Torquay piece is one of many many many pieces of tourist ware in different shapes and sizes, some can be quite fine china which are labelled from different tourist spots round the U.K. They usually have the town’s crest on them. I have some from my home town Blackpool which is a big holiday seaside town in the U.K. I used to have more until the cat got on the shelf.... The scarab beetle is indeed supposed to represent resurrection. The dung beetle pushes a ball of dung which represents the sun rising and setting

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I read about the dung beetle! Very interesting. The transferware crest on the Torquay piece reminds me of Goss Ware souvenirs

[@lynnedelacy2841]

Yes Goss Ware was the key producer of this type of ware, there were others but Goss Ware was the finest

[@c.nancynoonan4940]

Could that bowling pin be 4 H and not 41?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I looked a bunch of times thinking that but it was definitely a date pin

[@Rose39M]

Thanks George! Love the onion! Is that Sylva C, never mind I just re- watched this part.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I love the onion too! You're the second person to mention Sylvac, they really were a fun company I need to learn more about...they might have a claim to being progenitors of the style

[@Rose39M]

@@TheAntiqueNomad yes please do. I am very interested in who did what first! I recently sold a 1920s SylvaC art deco pitcher for good money. I have a few more pieces to list. They are becoming more collectible these days is my understanding. I would love that onion though! He is adorable

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Out of this group? I have to admit that I really liked the stereo camera, personally...I think because I took photography in college

"J" prounced as "H" in Spanish. Not into mid-century but LOVE that ashtray

[@jacquiliddell1811]

Yes the expense and killing of beautiful elephants for trinkets, so good for the imitation material

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I agree completely! I wish the killing the elephants thing had been the real motivation but this stuff was made when there was still "harvesting" going on

[@frankhetzel5363]

Love and would like swag glass vase.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Darn, Frank! You have good taste, everything you're liking in my older videos has already sold. I'll look for more

[@Soul-Nate]

Your videos just keep getting better and better! Particularly liked the sterocamera. I always wondered how they were taken, never seen the camera before! The Carnival Glass vase was beautiful too! As always thanks!😊

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you very much! In some ways it's harder for me to talk about things I have for sale, I want to be informational and not have it just be a sales pitch

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

Fantastic video, George!!! I missed the premier...didn't know you were having one😌 I couldn't believe you showed that 1970's Fenton "Lime Custard", peacock pattern vase😃 I actually have that, and it still has the Fenton lable on it. I've never really thought much of anything about the thing...not overly fond of the peacock pattern items😏 I need to give it a go, under a black light. The colours on the CG vase are fantastic! Love that one! Green seems to be a really sought-after colour these days, too. That Dr. Pepper pencil topper caught my eye🧐 Not seeing many older DP items floating about these days. The stereo camera and Calabash pipe are really cool! I really like the Kingfisher, (it kind of looks like a kookaburra, too), pitcher. Hopefully I won't miss another premier! I was preparing dinner for Mother when this one was on🙃 Thanks for all the info and cool items!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! It's funny, I only got the video done in time to drop it at a random time for me but I wasn't sure you'd find so much that resonated with you so I'm especially happy you have the Fenton peacock and it read differently to you under black light. I figured you'd like the other items you mentioned lol

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

@@TheAntiqueNomad I've had that Fenton peacock vase for so many years I can't remember when I got it. I had no idea it would glow, under a black light...never tried it. Yeah, those other items do indeed interest me. Are you doing a premier today? If so, I want to take care I catch that one!

[@ksk5664]

I had one of those scarab beetle bracelets when I was a girl. :)
