VINTAGE & ANTIQUES Shopping VLOG | RESELLING Prices for HOME DECOR!

Favorite Picker's Mall! | Shop with Me | Antique Pavilion | Vintage Reseller
Come with me as we search the catacombs of one of my favorite antique malls to pick! I often spend hundreds in a single visit to Aurora Antique Pavilion, a jumbled paradise of vintage goods in a giant space above a suburban strip mall. A lot of good deals on great old stuff turn up in this place, let's see what we find during our unexpected quick stop today!
This shopping trip is absolutely spontaneous, an hour opened up between appraisal appointments so it's a chance to find a few choice pieces (and one "Smiley Face" imposter!) as we buy for Summer antique shows. We discover bargains on signed costume jewelry, a deal on a plate from Seattle's first world's fair (1909!), a terrific 1970s metal wall art piece perfect for the Northwest and other fun finds (even a Treasure Craft Hawaiian set!).
There's lots of good dealers and interesting specialties here too...solid wood English furniture, a huge assortment of Hall teapots, 1950s toys, a Blenko pitcher whose signature tells its age and a spaces with everything from video games and concert shirts to really nice Rookwood Pottery make this a fun tour of a lot of different collectible interests. From MCM modernism to regal Victorian design, this mall makes it easy to buy and flip for a profit, if you know where to look!
Here's some of the vintage goodies we encounter as we shop for resale in this picker's paradise:
Luster rooster covered bowl, Clam Broth boiling pot, Blendo chip/dip, English art deco bird cage, 1950s comic chef's apron, Bauer Ring cookie jar, carnival chalkware ship, 1950s vintage fashion and hats, Fenton blue crest, Imperial blue slag pedestal bowl/lid, mortar and pestle sets, 1950s spaghetti poodles, Beswick boxer, Lomonosov terrier, Vancouver Whitecaps (NASL) pennant, gold Italian bird figure, Franz porcelain vase, 1940s nude chalkware figure/dish, Renoir cuff, Winfield China dinnerware, Viking Epic long-necked bird, Italian blue bird figure, Denby Pink Gypsy dinnerware, Hawaiiana, Northern Pacific Railway bag, art deco blue glass mirror, 1930s shake machines, Seattle Totems program, Japanese 1890s cast iron scale, Craftsman surveying transit, soil testing kit, oak side-by-side cabinet, Pepsi neon 1960s sign, western pillowcase, Cambridge Flying Lady compote, G-plan/English modernist furniture, Royal Haeger 1970s vase, Melville screenpainted plaque, washstand with pitcher/bowl, wardrobes, Fenton Jade Green, 1994 Mac computer, 1966 Lincoln promo car, 1930s Mickey Mouse pop-up, Frederick & Nelson store ephemera and china, concert shirts, steamer trunk, 1970s-80s celebrity dolls, Philco Predicta tv, bubble-top Electrophone stereo system, 1962 Seattle Worlds Fair placard, Franciscan Oasis, Ring 1930s shot glass set, Lucite modernist shell lighter/ashtray set, English bar, 19th century European painted chest, pickled bamboo shelves, Quezal shades, 1930s pull toy, Marblehead pottery vase, Saturday Evening Girls bowl, N.

We children’s librarians always check inside large wardrobes…because you never know when you’ll open the door to Narnia!

[@twistoffate4791]

I love your comment.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Or at least find a stray copy ;)

[@m.c.master4622]

The knowledge you convey is so nice for someone listening and learning. You are very generous in that way which makes your videos a delight! Best to you always.

[@ednapalmer6914]

Myon had the copper bracelet and the matching earrings. She bought them at a copper home party in the 1960s

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Neat! I forget that copper was also home party stuff

[@cherylhuot4436]

Oh my that Windfield green and yellow dish wear is marvelous!!!

[@maryjopalady4715]

Oh George your in the area were I grew up! My dad worked at the National Bank of Commerce in Edmonds before it became Bank of America. I’m sure you remember that. That area has really changed over the years but what hasn’t. Love the tour as usual always makes me happy.

[@kathleenwestfall5140]

George, I could watch you & Laura Caldwell every day. Always learning from you plus it makes me want to get out to my local resale shops. Be safe. Hugs & blessings from Texas 💖🦋

[@DynamiteDaynaD]

George, your knowledge is astounding!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh, thank you! I have more to learn though

[@sarahj.8372]

George unwinding on a dumb medical test day...not hard just annoying and home bound for it...thank the Good Lord I have these entertaining fantastic and wildly fun dialoged show and tell videos...I remember a bit more each time..just wowowo..thanks..loved the pottery and glass and dishes and tb and stereos and English furniture and 50's/60's up to MJ dols..lol. LOL Mr. Sunshine Family...yes sibs had them.

[@marilyndudek3356]

Thank you. I enjoyed this tour immensely. I saw so many "new" to me things.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so glad! I keep trying to find different things to show everyone

[@cecoya]

Love that Fenton Jadite piece. Thanks for sharing with us and you have a great day

[@twistoffate4791]

Thank you, George, for talking to us about the porcelain or china dogs!! I collect them & appreciated that. Loved the bubble-top record player & speakers & the tangerine & yellow Blenko. Sigh. So pretty!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh good! I appreciate them as well

[@sylviajones4907]

Thanks, George. Enjoyed your knowledge and humor. : )

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Glad to hear it!

[@susanjackson282]

LOL it looks like you are an imposter which we know is not true! You are the real deal Lucille

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Lol that's right, had to change that one after we looked twice!

[@benniwh]

Just full of so much information. Thanks George!

[@YOSOBOHO]

You made me laugh with your Ken & Allan suspicions 😂 … I wasn’t a Barbie girl (more a Raggedy Ann and matchbox cars in the sandbox girl) … so I looked up Allan because I’d never heard of him. I found an article that points to the trademarks on his box that, from a distance, looked like quotation marks around the word [Ken’s] “Buddy.” Love it and I love your quick wit and dry sense of humor.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I thank you for getting my insinuations, I saw what you saw, I'm just sayin'. 1965 was apparently more progressive than I've been told!

[@YOSOBOHO]

@@TheAntiqueNomad or someone who worked for Barbie was! 💕 I hear there is a new Barbie movie coming out. Let’s hope for an Allan appearance!

[@candydonnelly7543]

What a fabulous antique mall! I love to see vintage pottery, thanks you George, I always learn new facts from you! Safe travels 😎

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! Glad you had fun with me too

[@juliejems555]

Oh my gosh. You are in my neighborhood. I wish I'd known!!

[@karenmassie1239]

I loved watching you show us this place. What a variety of items. It’s a history lesson waiting to be seen. 👍🏻😃

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Glad you enjoyed it, I was so happy to wind up there unexpectedly

[@pammywhammy3521]

Super interesting!!!👍❤😊

[@sararinckel]

The Cincinnati Art Museum has the most stunning Rookwood pottery on display! Jason had a hard time trying to pull me away from the cases...😂 Well that and the furniture....and paintings...

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh I bet! Such a great company

[@george.carrasco]

Great video George! Thanks for sharing!

[@erinrants9371]

The mountain/forest wall sculpture at the end is fantastic.

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

Good evening, George! That hanging birdcage was a nice one. I had an antique one until a few months ago and sold it. It had a maple leaf pattern, cast iron base, and the cage matched the base. It was an aged burnt orange...maybe used to have been more red...colour. I spotted an old galvanised watering can there that I could use. Nice oak ice box there, too. That oak side-by-side was really nice. I've always liked those. Looked like a Slinky there...that brought back memories. Loved that wash basin and pitcher. That crack in the pitcher wasn't good, though. That old steamer trunk was fantastic. I tend to really like the English furniture. It seems to have a more refined look to it. Love the antique bamboo furniture! I had an antique bamboo corner chair...some time ago but sold it. That's a super-nice pavilion! Thanks for the take-along!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I love the birdcages, I bet the maple leaf pattern is cool! I've never seen that to my knowledge. I never could make Slinky work right! The steamer trunk and the English furniture both appeal to me a lot, I worked with a lot of English furniture the first 10 years of my career. I would have a house (or apartment) full of bamboo shelving if I had my way! Thanks for coming along again

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

@@TheAntiqueNomad If I'd had room to keep it, I'd have never sold the birdcage I had. The cage was brass with the same colour as the stand for its trim. I'd love to have all kinds of the Victorian bamboo furniture. If I'd had room to use it, I'd have never sold the corner chair I had. I really like the patina it gets when it ages.

[@Garymoe871]

Wowzer George that Red ♥️ coat was to die for ... Took my breath away ... I will be in Washington next week and have my list of places you have filmed at 👍

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh good! Have fun and happy shopping

[@cindywilliams4960]

Thanks for showing tea 🫖 pots. I have been collecting years ago getting back into it. You do such a great job showing and educating me.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You're so welcome! I see teapots making a comeback

[@gailsprangers9388]

I'm always amazed at your self control in places like this. My arms would have been full😊. I will many times walk a store and not pick up things convincing myself if I want it I will return only to have it stuck in my head and be disappointed to find it gone when I return. Thank you for another information filled video. It helps me appreciate things so much more.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I usually buy first and ask questions later...you make more mistakes that way, but you also get lots of opportunity!

[@Elias-Hicks-Still-Kicks]

Denby ware! Ha! I have a mishmash of plates that I use for every day and my favorites are a pair of floral-clad plates by this maker. I've never heard this maker mentioned in the hours- months, really- of thrifting and antiquing videos that I've watched now. Cool!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh wow! Denby really should be mentioned more, the modernists in the Northwest seem to know and love it

[@elenarynkevic1954]

So much fun going shopping with you! ❤️

[@keepersfinder2922]

"Georgian" on the Wash set id the design name. Made in East Liverpool Ohio probably by Homer Laughlin

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You're right about it being the design name! However, Homer-Laughlin Eggshell Georgian came a little later than the wash set and was dinnerware

[@bethgarland4140]

Thank you for sharing all your knowledge on antiques. I just subscribed to your channel, and I was so impressed, and enjoyed your channel.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Welcome to the channel! I like sharing what I can with everyone, please keep watching and tell your friends :)

[@korencollections349]

Always enjoy your videos George.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks 👍

[@deborahb7284]

As always, thanks for all the information. I liked to get the info on the Northern states just West of me in the Dakotas. Very beautiful pottery. Thank you for the tour, it makes me wish I hadn't quit the resale business. Have a nice day!

[@carolegernett4351]

Love the bubble top turntable. Cool MCM furniture. Love Hall teapots, I have a blue/gold with a fleur de Lis gold pattern.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh that's a nice teapot! I like all their stuff

[@abbynash9565]

Missed you in FL this winter, with regrets. I really enjoy your vids. I think Winfield pottery is under rated.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I so agree about WInfield! Hope to see you in Florida next season

[@abbynash9565]

Thanks, hope so, too. Because of your broadcast I just bought my 1st example of Treaure Craft, San Francisco sounvenir plate. Keep up the good work!

[@kelleykelley549]

❤️❤️❤️

[@timhalcomb4041]

Thanks for sharing have a blessed day

[@joesimon2029]

26:25 I wonder if there is an "eccentric" rich person out there - with a huge empty space- that sets up his or her home like an antique center . LOL. That would be funny .

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I bet there are a few!

Thanks!

[@najmaabdul2346]

hi, the lite blue pots are my favorite thanks.

[@iamgabriel5823]

Another great show. Thanks so much.

[@bettyr8608]

Hello George, Wow you can just see how much fun you are having in this place. Hope to visit some day 😍. Thanks for sharing 😉

[@karenchasenvintage2029]

Yay🎉🎉🎉it’s George!!

[@martisteele6542]

Thanks for another great video, George. That Cambridge piece is stunning!

[@pattyshinkaruk5292]

Nice shop along with you George. The Frederick and Nelson was a beautiful store and I still remember the lovely fragrance upon entering. Interesting info you had on F&N, and all the other items you showed. Thanks!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I miss that place

[@carybrown3070]

Funny you mentioned Jim and Kay Whitaker... my ears perked up! My mom collects Josef, and I bought their books for her! I knew they were local, but didn't know they were sellers! I will be house sitting for my son next month, so will be in that neck of the woods, will have to check out the antique store, I don't get out much these days!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

They educated me on Josefs when I worked at Star Center Mall in Snohomish! They do the Portland Rose City Vintage Market in October I think! You might get to see them there

[@rondamarlenemckee2969]

Oh George it's so nice to go along with you. You make me homesick for the Square and antique shopping in general! Thank you so much for doing this. Now take me along for real Will you be @ the antique festival in centralia rhis weekend?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi Ronda! Me too, I miss those days. It was fun as can be! I really regret that because I just got done with the Fenton convention, I can't get to Centralia to do appraisals this year for antique fest...I hope to get there to do it again next year though! Best wishes to you

[@george.carrasco]

Great video Georgie! Loved all that info on the pottery in the store! 👍

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@d.frisco7283]

Love that teaset at the end...did you say it was Hull?

[@aliementz1294]

I believe he said Hall. A caption at the bottom of the video reiterated that as well. I loved the teapots!

[@shainazion4073]

I believe they remade the Flying Nude bowl, after Cambridge closed. I would have to see the color to know. Cambridge didn't make a lot of Amethyst. They did inserts for the Farber pieces in Amethyst.

[@barbaraperkovic1996]

Fredrick & Nelson’s looks exactly like Marshall Fields. Is there a story there? I believe Marshall Fields sold Franco chocolates.

[@marileestreasuretrove]

Fredrick, &Nelson was originally part of Marshall Fields until sometime in the 1980's when it was sold to a private party who ran it until it went into bankruptcy in late 90's (my dates are approximate). At that point Nordstrom took over the F&N Seattle downtown store site and remains there today. I am a retail child, as my Mother worked at that downtown F&N store in the fur department in the 50"s and 60''s. Macy's now sells Frango Mints, but they were actually developed by F&N, and a special part of our family's Christmas. celebration. This Anique Nomad episode makes me feel so nostalgic. Lots of good memories.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes! Marilee has it 100% right

[@lisageilhausen1866]

I enjoyed this video. Is there a video about the Fenton glass show?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

There will be! Stay tuned over the next few weeks

[@keepersfinder2922]

The fur on the Nordstroms red jacket is not faux. It is New Zealand opossum.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh, I didn't recognize it as such. I didn't realize that was used as fur and it didnt feel like anything else I've had in the past. Thanks for letting us all know!

[@chriswalker6826]

Please show us what u buy!!

[@MarshiaArmstrong]

I used to go there all the time

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Neat store! I hadn't been in ages

@@TheAntiqueNomad probably 3 or 4 years for me, Travel safe, I know you are back in your East coast area now, wishing you great picking.

[@martabolkovac1834]

Hey George, I had an Allan doll. I wondered about him too. Why didn't my parents just buy a Ken?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Mattel thought Ken needed a buddy in 1964-1965. Midge came along about the same time for Barbie. I think they were supposed to double date...they weren't clear who was to date whom...

[@huntsmanpixie3216]

Hello George- why the difference in value between the Viking and the Italian? Desirability? (if so, why?)

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Italian is generally handmade, Viking was molded by machine

I had Donnie Osmond doll(even the same outfit).
