The utensils are a barware set. The item you called a whisk is actually a strainer that fits over the top of a shaker and catches seeds, ice, or other things that don’t need to end up in the glass. The tall spoon is for mixing as well as muddling. Since it’s barware you might get more than if they were just kitchenware.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Wowsers. Yes I agree that the bar-ware would be worth more than just odds'n ends kitchen pieces.. Thanks for watching!

[@tanyadavis6513]

I love the dresser mirror. My grandmother had a set like this. I look forward to your videos. Just opened a vintage Etsy shop myself and still getting it stocked. You are one of my inspirations. I also sell quite a bit on eBay. Check out my store www.etsy.com/shop/ShaggyBuffaloGifts .

[@lynnmaupin-simpson1215]

Try making a whiskey sour using your bar ware. Or my favorite is an Amaretto Sour. Your furniture is really nice.

[@thefeatheredhag4279]

What a steal on that bedroom furniture! Love seeing all your finds, and you crack me up. Thanks 😄

[@oldcuriosityshop265]

Your 1930's waterfall set is great. It took me back to my grand parent's bedroom. I can just smell the mothballs! It's great you found it without any chipped veneer.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

I know! I see a lot of this stuff missing big chunks of wood. Minor issues present, but that's ok! Thanks for watching!

[@garyneilrichardson]

Oh! And the furniture! Holy cats! It’s gorgeous. 20 bucks was a freakin’ steal!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

I know! Thanks for watching!

[@omfug7148]

re the drawer flying out of the chest, I have a similar story, when I had a shop we got a call about buying several 1950's designer pieces, this was in a town about an hour away, it was a good buy with many nice pieces, not cheap because the owners knew what they had, so we packed everything into the truck and started for home, we heard a thud but ignored it, so when we got home a chair was missing (value was around $150) we drove all the way back and it had already been picked up, LOL--yes a learning experience indeed, always tie stuff in a truck bed down!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Oh no.. I'm pretty lucky that it turned out so well considering.. Thanks for watching!

[@shoshonnaissachar5927]

Most ppl did not have phones...a postcard was 1 or 2 cents...just used, as you said, like we use text messages. Just the facts. Or send a card to cheer someone's day. That was the point, I think. I have my aunt's postcard album from her kindergarten teacher in 1912. She kept things til her death in 1930. Love that form of communication! Smile.

[@susanbehring3401]

Me too. I love receiving a card or letter in the mail.

[@kathleenmurphy2379]

Those postcards are worth a good bit individually look them up

[@shoshonnaissachar5927]

They are priceless to me, and will be passed on to my children.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

That's true about the phones.. didn't occur to me! Thanks for watching!

[@sherrynerreau3839]

Some great old stuff here! Love your new bedroom set too! The Mirror is beautiful (love mirrors)! 😊

[@roxyc4438]

I love the vase and the postcards. I have many from my family from over the years, and can't resist them when I see them at my Mall. Thanks for sharing your great finds! Say 'hi' to Aaron and Stella for me!

[@marcicook3166]

The word on that postcard was think. "don't you think?" Come on Jeffrey THINK! lol. Love your new furniture. I have the same waterfall chest, it was my grandmothers. My other set of grandparents had the whole bedroom set, my aunt has it and I have always loved that style.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

"Chuck.. Chuckle.. Chuck?" Yes.. So obvious now, lol. Thanks for watching!

[@adirondackErin]

That frankoma deco planter is fabulous! Those fragrance things are called pomanders; I think. Lol. Love your “new” bedroom furniture. I inherited my parents Haywood Wakefield set and feel very lucky to have it. Good for you on all of your amazing finds!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@k.0910]

Hello Stella and Jeffrey, It's good to see you again; Stella you made a great appearance :)! Jeffrey wow that was quit the adventure to get the furniture home and it's real nice, and glad to hear that no car accidents from the drawer flying out.... yikes. You got some good finds again. Thanks for sharing.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Yes it was a fun adventure to say the least! Thanks for watching!

[@aprilhowes7501]

OMG love that beautiful dresser I can't believe you got that for 20 :) great find

[@vintagegirl7937]

Love antiques...my room is filled with antiques...looks like walking into the past..

[@lynnmaupin-simpson1215]

When you mentioned the phone being sticky I remember how gross they would get. Can you imagine if you cultured the goo what would turn up? My dad was in the military so living in base housing we had these phones FOREVER. I can remember our phone number in England was #5. Wonderful things. Glad the flea market is yielding some interesting things.

[@phant0m0th_]

I went to an antique store where I grew up and there were a ton of Edwardian era and Victorian era items....shoes, photos, mirror set, wooden bird cage, etc. I havent been lucky enough to find that teacup decor piece or rotary phones

[@kathrynlay7428]

Great stuff and prices. Been wanting to find a carnival glass vase like that. But oh my gosh that bedroom furniture!! Love.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@merrilynrutledge5013]

OMG!! That furniture is fabulous! I love old postcards and letters, as well.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Yes very happy to have gotten those pieces! Thanks for watching!

[@dianecostello1433]

this is when a cheap furniture blanket & a bungee cords come in handy

[@RealNiftyVintage]

The sad part is we had both in the back of the cab! Thanks for watching!

[@PudgyPicker]

Jeffrey!!! I finally got your package after calling, harassing really, the post master in my area 6 TIMES!! Keep an eye out for a video on it! Thanks Again!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

lol yikes! Sounds good!

[@annmariemarin5513]

Love those waterfall pieces... I adore those.

[@pugmug25]

Yes, I was going to tell you the same thing about the strainer. Thanks for the video. Great b drool set.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@janetpogue4970]

Just found this video! Good explanation of items

[@luvnalaska44]

Beautiful dressers. Another set of treasures.

[@pamquinn6554]

Love the washcloths, tin, and gas station numbers. The postcards are adorable! Yes, the "whisk", is a strainer.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Yes really happy with the stuff! Thanks for watching!

[@garyneilrichardson]

You and your new old stock linens. I SO wish I could find some too! - and sort of obsessed with the phones.

[@carmenbatista5044]

love antique furniture!!!!!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@insectbah]

I love reading what people said in postcards!

[@jennifersnouffer8218]

Wow! Great finds! Love the furniture!!

[@lnoland1000]

Love the waterfall furniture! Great deal!!!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@LynneWright]

Irice made perfume items through the 1970s. The Irish lass would have scented pellets in her, she’s a later piece from the 70s. Usually you’ll find crystal perfume bottles with the Irice label. The bar utensil set is from the 1960s, my parents used to have the same one. The long spoon is for stirring cocktails and I think the whisk type utensil is actually a straining reamer, but I could be mistaken. Beautiful Waterfall setand what a bargain!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Great info! Thanks for that! Thanks for watching!

[@judewishedhimselfout]

I love the bedroom furniture!!!

[@izby2652]

That large tin would make a great little umbrella stand!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

True! Thanks for watching!

[@adalineproulx9773]

Lol so true about the msgs on the postcards 🤣😂😄

[@hollidais20002]

Hi Stella! Love your new furniture

[@rebeccanichols1165]

Love the wash clothes and picture frame. Great finds all around though.. nice bed room furniture

[@Indy_Moon]

The furniture oh my what a score!!! Hello Stella!!!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@lynnmk2384]

Beautiful furniture love all the other beautiful things you got

[@thecatlady2710]

I live 5 miles from Sapulpa Oklahoma which is where Frankoma is made. The factory is shut down right now but a Frankoma family member is trying to reopen it. I hate Frankoma!! LOL I think it's so ugly! You can't go to a garage sale around here without seeing a ton of it. If you ever come through northeastern Oklahoma you can buy a bunch of Frankoma cheap. Although you will not find a single piece of it at my house. ;)

[@nellstreasurebox]

Wow, glad you got the furniture home. They are awesome finds!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@theresavalentino7556]

Nice score on the bedroom furniture. Sorry you had to learn how to move furniture the hard way!! Also enjoyed the vintage postcards. Keep on thrifting!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Keeps it interesting to say the least.. Thanks for watching!

[@NestingHaven]

Cool Bakelite! I never come across it. Gas station numbers! What a neat find! Yes people like birth years, anniversary or number of family members etc. For gallery walls. Love carnival glass 😊

[@RealNiftyVintage]

The gas station numbers are pretty neat.. Never came across those before! Thanks for watching!

[@douggrimes1549]

Amazing deals on the furniture! They are gorgeous!

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@TheRealNuriko]

Great score on the dresser and wardrobe. I too had a run in with some waterfall furniture this weekend but since I don’t have the space I didn’t pick it up.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@keepinitalways3810]

For $20 you got a really great deal!! They are both beautiful and match your chest really good!! Great job!!

[@mitzi1726]

Great items Jeffrey. Love the furniture. Thanks for sharing💝😁

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@gloriastroedecke2717]

Love the vase. Stella is as beautiful and sweet as ever. The Irish girl is a pomander. You put scented wax pellets inside her and high it in your closet. I like your Parker, glad you are keeping them. Love the postcards.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Yes the pens are cool! Hide the irish girl! The pens are super neat; i know! Thanks for watching!

[@pamelarundle2834]

The Wags to Riches thrift store in Mechanicsburg PA has a full sized Waterfall bed (headboard, footboard, side rails, and slats). It has a little veneer damage to the footboard. But is would match beautifully.

[@cathifamjourney469]

Did you try the dark old english in the tv area? Old English is amazing!! It even comes in just a lemon oil for cleaning, shine and of course smell🍋🍋🍋 You did great again, love the waterfall set mom has one almost identical if not exact. She has the bed as well. I t was her grandmas set. 💙💜❤

[@rubyred8845]

love the furniture and bird wall hanging pieces :) you're funny! :D

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@willajohnson8577]

Here is my quick way to figure a cost after discount. Don't think of the discount (40) think of what's left (60) So 6 times $5.00 is $3.00 price. 6×$7 00 your cost is $4.20 Sounds like an arithmetic lesson..lol just came up with this years ago because i was always trying to figure my cost after discount when cloths shopping and so many dif.discounts. hugh! You seem to have a lot of good places to bargain hunting. Good haul.💗🖒

[@bethanywarner8565]

I want that planter!!!!!

[@LiftUpNotDown]

My grandparents had a very similar style dresser and hope chest.

[@The_Lost_Attic]

Irice... which stands for Irving Rice i believe

[@laurensouthgate2458]

Nice stuff i like the little blue hen i would use that to keep hard boiled eggs warm at the breakfast table its so pretty.We used to have the tupperware juice container and lettuce bowl.Great score on the waterfall furniture its looks fine.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@lajunecrockett2381]

Blue hen is a candy bowel

[@bongoscongasantiquecashreg4544]

[@bongoscongasantiquecashreg4544]

Cute dog you have in looooove!

[@willajohnson8577]

Had to laugh..your furniture moving skills sre in progress. I like the old bedroom set. Mirror really looks good. Glad it made it home.

[@shoshonnaissachar5927]

We called those objects...ie, the girl with the shaker holes...ceramic sachets. Just FYI.

[@glendafromaustralia1625]

Great vid Jeffery. Australia 🦘🦘🐨

[@kendallkapp185]

i realy like that ice blue duck bowl

[@dawnbritt870]

The reason that most of the post cards said crazy short sentences is that it was a cheap way to communicate and they usually wrote to these same friends/family members every day or two! I have hundreds of them from my great aunt on Canada. They are so much fun to read! I love them........and most other vintage things too! 😳😬😊

[@donaldasnicar9847]

Dawn Britt Vic&irva

[@sandracushing8907]

Wow those two beautiful dressers for $20, unbelievable.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

[@vintagemarylouise7319]

Hey I don't like tv's up in the sky either😅 Mine is sitting on a midcentury credenza that I picked up for $10. Love your waterfall pieces.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@WowWowzie]

Previously, I asked who Aron is; Jeffery just said that Aron is Barbara's brother 💖 so now I know

[@suzyallen1726]

[@tralalaike]

this chicken can be from Poland - Huta Ząbkowice

[@teresafaulkner5199]

Those linens are definitely 70s my mother had some of these maybe 60s

[@marygough6554]

Bar Keepers Friend might clean up the bottom of the rusted phone.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

True! Thanks for watching!

[@lindamoore1373]

Should have put tv on top.

[@Bast16711]

That is a drink strainer

[@paulanull8731]

Nice finds. The old black phone is Bakelite. It's hard to tell but I always had to do the hot pin and smell test on black because the 409 test doesn't work on black Bakelite all that well. Of course it's safe to assume on the old phones. The bar set is not Bakelite and is missing the mixing glass. And finally YIKES...do not use Brasso on gold filled or anything not brass. Use a jewelry cleaner like Wrights or such. Brasso is too harsh and will ruin the gold plate in no time. And no dip cleaners either...they wreck stuff to by removing some of the surface each time. Dip cleaners are the devil on good jewelry and flatware etc.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

I'm shocked that those utensils aren't Bakelite.. I could have sworn someone told me they were in another video.. So many conflicting messages! lol. I'm going to look them up to be sure. I always thought they weren't really bakelite and more of a lucite or just plain old plastic. I read the back of brasso and it didn't say not to use on gold. Whoops! Thanks for watching!

[@paulanull8731]

Yeah another dealer told me about gold and Brasso. Plus showed me some examples. It seems that several uses make the gold and other thin coat products wear way too fast. Brasso is best used on brass from my understanding. About the handles: Use the Bakelite test with 409 to verify if I am right with the plastic handles. I still have some so now I am going to re check them. The are from the mid 60's if my memory is correct. My mother had almost the complete serving set. What I understood was it was heavy and strong like Lucite. Sigh, it is so difficult to keep track of all the elements involved in vintage and thrift selling.

[@sandraaguirre6241]

How much for the post cards.Thanks

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Those are $12 and include shipping. Let me know at [e-mail] if you'd like them and I'll set up a PayPal! Thanks for watching!

[@sandraaguirre6241]

Ok im gona send it with the 2 Amish bowls im buying Thank you

[@truenews3763]

That phone is worth like $40 or $50., the first phone.....the 2nd phone isnt worth that much.

[@kathleenmurphy2379]

Bakalitte.... not sure of spelling...utensils are all for a bar...

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Bakelite; but pronounced how you wrote it, lol. Although someone else says they probably arent that.. I'll do a little digging. Thanks for watching!

[@lajunecrockett2381]

Dressers are a still....handles looks tortoise shell

[@susanbehring3401]

Hi Stella

[@jennabateman1500]

It’s all junk besides that pottery planter and the big tin can.

[@mamiewallace9437]

FYI the solid door on your tall dresser was a writing desk when opened.

[@RealNiftyVintage]

Oh that makes so much sense! Thanks for watching!
