[@ajwrites57]

Nice furniture. Love game table. Nice legs in those 80s shorts.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Lol yes I liked that era

If they've thrown it into the garbage it really must be garbage? Not around here! Some incompetent runners throw all sorts of good stuff in the dumpster. I pulled a vintage hard hat off the top once; it was the only thing I found at the sale worth anything at all. We were told no pulling things out of the dumpster, but only after I rescued it. Tough noogies. Gave it to a friend, who eventually gave it to a family member of the original homeowner's who was overjoyed to get it back. It was not supposed to get dumped. Got SILVER out of another dumpster once. It was sitting with the uranium glass.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I agree in most cases! I just know this group well, they would empty a dumpster to find things the client erroneously threw out if they spotted something, they're very thorough. I've done lots of great dumpster diving at estates I've been hired to do, and I have seen good things in the trash at estates where they're less knowledgable

[@loriehilton-reynolds9592]

My neighbor left a dumpster in alley once. I had a home in historical district. Walking by it I did grab some old paper out to use in my multimedia art. Upon getting home I realized it was a catalog to custom order the carriages pre automobiles! 100s of pages of designs to pick from to customize your house drawn carriage!!! It to date has been one of my favorite finds. I also tucked up a white cotton fabric for same reason. My mom was a fabric expert. It ended up being a beautiful child's Victorian dress. A lot of damage but we see it to make clothing for 2 China head dolls.

[@vintagenurse431]

Fun, thanks for sharing.

[@beachcitiesthrifting777]

Wow so many great things! Learning so much from you....Thank you!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you too!

[@kswan7241]

I just sold that jardinere Moon and Stars biscuit jar in the amberina color for $350 in less than 6 hours on Etsy!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That's the color to have in that size

[@lindamain6355]

I loved going through this Estate sale with you. I definately would buy the string holder!

[@getitvintage]

Omg, I just busted out laughing at, “she looks like Jinx Monsoon.” 😂 I’m glad I’m not the only one obsessed with RuPaul’s Drag Race/drag queens and vintage! ❤️

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Lol I wondered who would get that remark! Am I right? Can I get an Amen in here?

[@allysonmurray1731]

I love the furniture! If I was able, I would buy a lot of it. You don't see much of that old furniture for sale here in Florida.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

No you really don't, but I'll have some at an estate sale iN St. Pete Beach in late January I believe, stay tuned! (Or come shop)

[@patriciawishon5679]

Absolutely love the furniture! I sure wish the prices were that back in 1992 when I bought my Victorian home. My whole house would have been period furniture! As I am maturing (don't wanna say "Getting older than dirt"), I think about moving into a smaller home. I do not believe I want to move those massive pieces to a new place. But I do love what I have. Thx for sharing ❤

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I understand, Victorian was a lot more costly then but there were also homes of that era being renovated! Seems like most have already been now, thus demand (and prices) for the furniture aren't as high now

[@loriehilton-reynolds9592]

I'm with you.. I also had a 3 story Victorian home during that time. Unusual my rooms were very large for the Era. It was the bankers home. I was 3 owner. I decorated different styles due to its size. My parlor living and library was all Victorian. But dinning room and kitchen area was early American primitive Pine furniture and such.. well.. my lighting was cranberry glass chadallers because I had 3 matching ones. The chandelier in the kitchen though was cast iron country store lighting.. it all went together pretty well. I also had extensive native American items I had to match in as my step dad would drop off pottery and rugs between customers. I would put up my quilts and place his rugs there. We were pickers before anyone knew what a picker was .. unless it involved your nose.. lol..

[@misswildlife7905]

Hi George, sorry I missed the premiere🙃 Love the game table!

[@donnaaguilar374]

You can use peroxide to get out stains on old quilts

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I've had mixed results, I think someone like you with more experience could do it safely

[@persiphonehellecat]

Virginia Slims - a silly millimeter longer. I have this ocd thing about remembering slogans and jingles! It's a curse!

[@pueblodove]

The Egrermann ruby glass sells for a good higher price, I sold a set of the cordials that go with it at a good price, the $16. would have been worth it.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Good to know!

[@s.f.8867]

8:00 Maybe that bowl was customized to fit the plates?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

They all were done to fit the bale, that's correct!

[@patyeaman]

Could you share a link for the small black light you use to test for uranium glass? I love your videos they are so informative!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! I honestly was gifted them, but they seem to be available online if you Google "key fob black light"

[@patyeaman]

@@TheAntiqueNomad Thanks, the key fob key words were the secret!

[@joannasarcamedes8191]

Was the portrait of the girl with bonnet on the wall original?????

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

It was!

[@dtruetheeness]

Kentucky is just a hop skip and a jump from Portland...I guess that's why you're the nomad.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

A loooong hop!

[@kimberlyjohnson-clark2886]

Hi George, when are you coming back to Seattle area? Are you going to Snohomish anytime soon? I have learned a lot from you. I am on disability and legally blind but I can see enough to watch you on my iPad and I really do enjoy your teachings thank you

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so glad you can still enjoy it! I will be back end of December briefly

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

Good evening, George! Mother would've been all over those portrait plates. She really likes any portrait china pieces. I like the old bridge lamps. There've been several times I've seen them at a local Goodwill for $5.00 or $10.00. If I had somewhere to put them, I'd buy everyone I see for that amount of money. I liked that round oak table the green glass candle holders were on. I have one like that, with the rolled Empire feet...not too fond of the claw feet ones. I've noticed, for me, the ones with the rolled Empire feet aren't as easily found as the claw feet ones, either. There looked like a monk pattern milk pitcher on top of the shelves where the Roseville "Clematis" vase was. Those really catch my attention. I have one by Sterling China. I'd love that opera lamp...if it hadn't been monkied with and electrified. If the font wasn't drilled, it could be returned to its original condition, though. I would've had to have investigated that. From the way the wiring was run, it looked like the font was likely drilled, though. That cast iron basket of flowers doorstop was a nice find! I like those Victorian ornamental ewers. Mother has one with green hobnail glass in it. I like the Victorian furniture. At those prices, I think I could redecorate a bit 😉 All that metal shelving would be great to use in a garage, if they were selling it. There was likely a ton of really good items there the first weekend, but there were still some really good finds for the 60% off sale! Thanks for the take-along!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

The portrait plates were so precious for so little! I do like good quality portraits. Bridge lamps at that price would be filling my world! I prefer rolled Empire feet to claw feet, interestingly they are desired more in your area and less so up north, where a lot of Empire furniture still lives. I do like the monk pitchers, think that one was a Willets Belleek. I didn't look closely to see how the electrification was done on the opera lamp, since I wasn't buying it...it makes a big difference to me though. Weren't the prices on the Victorian furniture crazy cheap? It's hard to believe, I feel like the quality will bring it back respect someday. Thanks for shopping along with me!

[@pammywhammy3521]

😊👍

[@tracyhammond460]

I would be absolutely gobsmacked ig I found a trinket box that's marked on the bottom...

[@alicegoesnomad8448]

[@persiphonehellecat]

OMG George - how do I buy that shade? I need one for my bridge lamp so much. Please let me know. I bought two grape shaped ones this weekend that are green - one of our online estate sales with NO previews, They do not glow.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Email me I didn’t end up using it so it’s for sale but meantime measure your collar

[@kelleykelley549]

❤❤❤

[@agomodern]

Do you ask permission before video recording? New to making videos myself and I bet it takes a little bravery to talk to your camera. That was a cute 1960s footstool with hairpin legs that I think I saw upstairs.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

A lot of people do...I honestly usually don't, I explain if asked and they're usually pleased to let me because I have a decent following. I just try to be respectful about it
