VINTAGE JEWELRY HAUL | Choosing the BEST to RESELL for Profit!

Preparing ANTIQUE HAUL for the Rose City Vintage Market in Portland, Oregon
Our last Northwest antique show of the year is this weekend, and it's decision time! We've been procuring interesting things from lots of different estates...what should travel west with us?
We start at Twin Lakes Antique Mall, picking a cool 1970s suitcase, fabulous Fenton glass and other goods from MCM vintage to a Spanish-American War memorial mirror...all this while taking time to stock and restyle our space! Deciding what not to take and why is also important, we leave half the 1960s Roosters & Roses ware for Kentucky's farmhouse style kitchen decorators, but take road signs we think will grab attention in a big show booth.
Sorting at the storehouse is next, where big collections of mid-century glass offer tasty items like an Imperial cherub console set, Viking/Blenko/Pilgrim glass and elegant Empoli. We morph from there to a grand toreador painted screen, explain what 1980s costume jewelry we think has customers today and talk about the things (like Holt Howard and Pixieware) we've already got packed and in the van! Now if we can just leave enough room for the things we're likely to find on our drive out west...
Here's some more of what's occupying the van after this haul is sorted and packed:
Italian crackle fish decanter, resin grapes, Royal China 'Africa' tiered tray, Western Electric antique phones, Kanawha mini pitchers, Victorian iron string holder, Stickley Brothers Quaint shelf, McCoy deer planter, Davenport beverage set, Frankoma Mayan-Aztec canisters, 1910s silk embroidery piano shawl, GTE modernist phone, Franciscan Madeira pillar candles, Westmoreland teal lace edge bowl, Fostoria American cake stand, Westmoreland Della Robbia, George Briard tray, 1940s Dumbo planter, McCoy tulip planter, Erphila chicken, Royal Windsor chicken, pool balls, fire alarm, delphinium blue Argonaut toothpick, Miss America compote, Louis Glass pitcher, millefiori door knob, Hungarian folk art plaques, English toleware floral painted tin tray, silver deposit ice bucket, Limoges/Lenox salt dips, Hall Westinghouse fridge pitcher, Lenox pre-1953 shell dishes, Schreiner pin, Indian jewelry, Navajo jewelry, Victorian jewelry, marcasite & malachite jewelry, 1890s French black glass inkwell, French grape etch jar, 1901 dated bird whimsey, post card folios, Dinky auto carrier, etc.

The Portland show will be fantastic based on what you showed on this video.

[@iamgabriel5823]

Very fun video. Wishing you great success at the antique show. Wish I could join you!

[@xen0_m0rph]

Tried to stay in the chat to tell you more about alternatives to PayPal. Did you see the suggestions I sent?

[@SisterShirley]

George, you stole my heart when you said 'pic-a-nic basket just like Yogi Bear! You're just so cute!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Aww thanks! I'm just the right age to remember that

[@maryannthornes4984]

Boy oh boy,i heard that. Cramming to much on a shelf, the way I like to do. So true. I always want to put everything out to see. Thanks for so much fun .

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You and me both!

[@lyndatro5158]

Wrap any of those pins around a candle and gift! Unique and beautiful ❤

[@sharlynebeach2786]

Thank you George and yes please share your stops along the way and while in Portland. Drive safely. I do enjoy traveling along on your trips.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You got it! I just put another one out in tonight's (12/12/22) video

[@lisageilhausen1866]

Lovely preview of items for Portland George, thanks for sharing.

[@suzanconklin8415]

Safe travels and have a wonderful show!

[@dawnholley7880]

Lovely!

[@janetpogue4970]

Great video to SHARE with a friend, they will like it too. It supports George too !

[@greeneyedmimibostian3013]

Fantastic

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you so much 😀

[@janetpogue4970]

George, I really enjoy your videos. It's especially fun to see your booths and stock.

[@susantaulli6580]

Laura Caldwell's got nothing over you George!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Well, we both have our things we do well! She is a really good stylist and knows her mid-century designers well

[@truebluebus]

I like how you said "pick-a-nic basket". Reminded me of Yogi!

[@janetcooke384]

Lovely items, so happy that you share them with us.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You are so welcome!

[@lynnedelacy2841]

I loved the way you said ‘pickernic basket’ like Yogi Bear - I do exactly the same 😂

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Lol I am the right age

[@casinokat1]

Great stuff

[@kelleykelley549]

Always a treat! Ty, George!

[@pammywhammy3521]

Such beautiful things!😍 And I absolutely love the way you put your displays together!😊❤👍

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks so much! 😊 I do work hard at it, it's a lot of stuff but "organized clutter" sells better than a few things on a shelf for me

[@janetpogue4970]

Wow, very large booth and great displays.

[@beckyc.5743]

Great to see your items and booth George. I am in love with the piano shawl.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I really like that one too!

[@Chereese0808]

Living in Hawaii I'd great but it sucks when it comes to distance between your shows George. I don't need anything, but sometimes one's just gotta have what makes them happy. 😁 You'll do great in the PNW at the show. What's not to love? You're 2nd to none at what you do. I really enjoy watching your videos. Mahalo Nui Loa! 🏝

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you so much! I did some good buying in Hawaii, I hope to return to your beautiful islands soon

[@jeanboucher9783]

Look forward to seeing the video of the Portland show

[@karlaglover9693]

Thank you for sharing. I don't know if I can make it. Would enjoy meeting you. Please Stay Safe Happy and Healthy .have A Wonderful Day

[@southernmermaid2526]

Absolutely LoVE your jewelry pieces especially the Schreiner and Victorian brass necklace. I have a beautiful Malachite and Onyx sterling bracelet that my Mom gifted me in the early 90s that reminds me of your pieces here. 💚🖤

[@annholland51]

Wishing Portland was in my future!

[@timhazeltine3256]

Gotta love the Summer of Love suitcase

[@OriginalNethead]

21:24 that brass necklace might be 30s Victorian Revival instead of late Victorian. The Mid-mod jade butterflies were EVERYWHERE. They came in shell too. The onyx and malachite geometrics were 80s Deco Revival. The round earrings with the leaves - either 50s post-WWII painted plastic or something else not bakelite. The underlying plastic is the wrong color. 24:49 Glued stones.. Czech is doubtful. The lapis necklace has Indian bells, but I think it's Pakistani. 27:48 Mexican sterling, no question. It wants to be Los Balasteros but...?

[@patriciaparker3316]

Beautiful glass

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

This is helpful! I struggled with the brass necklace, I thought probably revival but it didn't look 1950s, which was when I thought they were doing them...but if it's 1930s, then likely you're right. I tested the rounds and they seemed to pass, even though I knew the yellow flowers weren't--?? I'm impressed and wish I knew how you know Pakistani versus Indian, I realize you are very well versed in jewelry and hope to learn more from you. Definitely the Mexican sterling was trying to be Los Balasteros but was a look-alike. Thanks!

[@OriginalNethead]

@@TheAntiqueNomad I have British collector friends who've been around and know stuff. Those bells turn up on Indian jewelry early and often; the Pakistani pieces are just different. You see enough of it, you start recognizing it.

[@reginatriplett9456]

That piano shaw is amazing. You both looks so nice.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you so much!

[@awattknots5263]

Hi George! You knowledge for antiques is so incredible, you are incredible historian. On a side note, I love that you shown the Frankoma Maya Aztec canister set in prairie green. I have a dining set, including canisters plates, and more in the original white sand. My grandmother was an artist here in OK and she knew the family who owned the factory and taught some of the kids. The had their own source of clay, using the native red dirt that we are famous for ( a nemesis for all OK mom’s like myself - lol.)

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That is so neat that she knew them! Their first factory was in Ada, where the clay is tan...not like what I saw along I-40 in Oklahoma

[@tumbleweed7283]

George George love it all 🥳see you next year in Portland. Praying you sell it all !!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! Put July 2023 on your calendar for Portland

[@nancy-carljohnson5001]

Love the Frankoma green brown glaze pieces

[@catfunksfabulousfinds]

It's going to be a great show! I can hardly wait.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Me too!

[@carolynmccallum9009]

What a great collection of items!

[@marygraham3563]

Beautiful pieces of jewlery

[@Dianehussaini]

Did you say “picanic” basket? Lol. I loved that, and I don’t think I imagined it. 🥰😂

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I was quoting Yogi Bear lol

[@Dianehussaini]

@@TheAntiqueNomad Yes, I know and I loved it😆😂

[@patriciaparker3316]

Love antiques you alwT always have beautiful things love it how did you learn to apprise items be careful traveling enjoy yourself

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! 🤗 I went to appraisal school in 1999

[@CrazyMaysStash]

Wonderful things George! I love Cast Iron everything. the string holder, the stove. I also love the large brass inkwell!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Me too!

[@michellepereira2328]

Hi, I like watching what you sell because I usually have at least one of the items in my home. For example I have the crackle fish that you showed. Before I started watching these videos the first thing I did with anything was to remove labels. Once I cleaned what I later found out was foil purposely put behind the jewelry stones to accentuate color. I also have a Schreiber piece of jewelry that was my aunts. Hers is a flashy rhinestone pin. I like yours better.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You probably have a good piece in your aunt's pin though, flashy sells! I remember as a kid thinking it was tacky when people left tags on things...now of course, we wish they would have left them be. Live and learn!

[@funnygirlinstumptown]

Love that groovy suitcase! And I wish that Frankoma was coming. Looking forward to next weekend. Sent you a pm as well. Great preview! Thanks George! ✌🏼

[@GrannysGarage333]

I wish the Frankoma was coming too!! 💚

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! i wish I had known, I'd have brought the Frankoma for you! We'll have fun there

[@tidynellie1081]

Love this channel!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Glad to hear it! I love doing this

[@maryannthornes4984]

I wish I could be at one of your shows. There is so much excitement and so much to see

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I hope I get to do one in your area!

[@susanreed1557]

Love the jewelry!

[@brendamawdsley9127]

I wish you were selling some of these earrings on Ebay. They were lovely.

[@persiphonehellecat]

I agree. I love the marcasite and malachite pin too!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Please send email to [e-mail], I think I still have those in inventory when I return to Florida in January

[@janetpogue4970]

Your glass is lovely ❤

[@kathyfawcett220]

Enjoyed the tour, love your booth😁

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you 😊

[@terripratt10]

George hi I'm not an expert but a lot of lapis comes out of Afghanistan their silver is a the quality of Mexican silver was told this at a turquoise show in Oklahoma back in the late 1980's

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Another viewer said the area from their through Pakistan has it

[@emptychair8141]

Maybe this is something you already know. Just came up in my feed. An Alberto Giacometti chandelier for Peter Watson at Sotheby's for show . Headed to London for show and sale. Long history of it. Eventually bought in antique store for 700. Gonna sell for 2-3 mill!! 😱

[@dawnsteuerwald4248]

🏵

[@donnamoseley3581]

New viewer here learned about you from the Crazy Lap Lady! I’ve started watching & learning! So interesting! Love the way you display your items!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I am so happy she mentioned me! I really enjoy her channel too. Have fun and we'll see you here!

[@sherrielindsey1935]

I’d love it if you could make it to Michigan city Indiana it would be so nice

[@FossilForwardFinds]

Great video! Wonderful diversity of pieces!

[@gailsprangers9388]

Oh my goodness! I just saw this video. Don't know how I missed it earlier. I LOVE some of your jewelry pieces and found myself wanting a few pieces so bad. If things don't sell in portland, are you planning to post them for sale anywhere online or have a sale video? I know for sure a couple of pieces I would love to purchase. You display everything beautifully. I would never have thought to pair some of the items like the tray with the small pictures and candle vase, but they look great together. Good luck with your sales, but keep me in mind for a few of those jewelry pieces😉. 🤞 selfishly I hope you come back with a few I have my eye on.

[@george.carrasco]

Great video George! ❤

[@delilahsvintage7555]

I found you from The Nurse Flipper. You are so knowledgeable! Totally enjoyed learning from you.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Welcome! I'm so glad she spoke of me, she is also very dedicated to scholarship, which I appreciate.

[@george.carrasco]

Great video George! Thanks for sharing!

[@cwil7549]

Good luck at your show! & Laura Caldwell has styling skills, doesn’t she?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

She sure does!

[@goldenviolet]

Glad you are showing McCoy. I thought it was totally out of fashion, but that never bothers me. The display was very nice, l would have put more in. But people don't always like that, but they look longer at the display. Good luck at your sale.

Just found you through Crazy Lamp Lady.Im new to the world of vintage and antiques and don’t know where to start...but taking notes on everyone’s videos! Looking forward to bingeing some videos and then exploring the wilds of Canada for gems 😆

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so grateful to her, and happy to have you watch! I try to share what I know, so binge my old stuff too. I'm partial to Canada and try to focus on things made there often

[@MamaStyles]

@@TheAntiqueNomad Aww!! You are the sweetest and this made my whole 50th birthday week! I appreciate kind words and admiration for a country I am proud to be from, but as I grew up on Vancouver Island….you and your country/ home state are brothers in arms to me . Washington State I spent a lot of time exploring in my youth and now I’m in Ontario and visit my sister in Wisconsin often to check out the treasures there too♥️Been loving your channel and your knowledge so much 😚

[@LauraMe...]

❤❤❤

[@vintagemekat6478]

You have an amazing memory! Thank you for all that you share - lots of great info & tips. If a viewer of a video like this is interested in an item you plan to bring to a show or in your booth, do you ever sell & ship to them?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! Absolutely, just email me anytime at [e-mail] and I'll be glad to oblige if I haven't already sold it

[@GrannysGarage333]

Will you be making any set appearances here in Seattle?? Might not be able to make Portland☹️

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I go there to work my space at Epic Antiques when I'm able! I'll be there the end of December

[@jeanboucher9783]

Love your videos.Good luck on the show in Portland wish I could go. Living in Michigan makes it too far for this 91 year old lady. I was wondering if the inkwell with the black Top would fit in the hole of an old school desk?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I think it is too squarish! I hope to get up to MIchigan again soon. I think it's wonderful that you're enjoying this with me at any age!

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

Hey George! I'm finally getting to post a comment on this one. That amethyst tumbler, with the lily of the valley on it, was interesting. I've noticed people are beginning to collect individual tumblers again. That would be a nice one to add to a collection. That piano shawl is fantastic! Love that! That Waterford pitcher is nice. I'd like to have a complete set of that, but...alas...no space to put it. Do you ever come across genuine jet jewelry? I've always wanted a nice piece of jet jewelry, but I've never been able to find any. Love the Victorian bar pin. It survived in remarkable condition. You have fantastic items!!! Something for a variety of tastes, so you should do quite well at the show!!! Thanks for showing us what you'll be selling!!!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hello! I have seen exactly one case of jewelry represented as jet that I actually trusted, everyone wants to call black glass beads "jet". I do like the piano shawl and Waterford always catches my eye! I really had fun at the show, sorry it took so long to catch up and respond!

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

@@TheAntiqueNomad It's been so long since I've seen real jet that I can't remember the last time I saw it. I've always wanted a mourning brooch in jet, but I imagine the prices for it would be astronomical, now. No worries about responding! I know you are quite busy 🙂

[@nemophilistnay]

You do GREAT on your displays! It’s very different setting up a display from decorating at home. Omg the Stickley stand! Do you still have that George? If so, where do I have to go to get it? 😅 The piano shawl is gorgeous too! But my kitties would eat it. I sure hope you’re doing the Portland shows this year!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! I plan to be in Portland in July. I'm sorry to say the Stickley stand sold in Kentucky already. Setting up a display is really different than display at home, when you pay rent the inclination is to cram them as full as possible but they still have to be shoppable! Look forward to seeing you

[@nemophilistnay]

@@TheAntiqueNomad sad about Stickley, glad I’ll probably meet you. I thought about vending but I’d rather wait a bit on that. See you then! I very much look forward to your booth!!!

[@rebahensley5323]

I would love to buy the Davenport china! When you say, "The whole set." do you mean what you were holding in your hand, or all of the pieces? Also, interested in the yellow empoli candlestick.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I think I still have the candlestick, did you email me about it? I did sell the Davenport set

[@janetpogue4970]

😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@persiphonehellecat]

Maybe the bull fighters would sell better in Florida - the Hemingway connection? BTW did you get the resend of my letter about the Mont Joye piece?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hello! I am sorry, I really want to read about the Mont Joye but I haven't had a chance with the traveling. I'll look for it!

[@persiphonehellecat]

@@TheAntiqueNomad OK thanks. I think the Statue of Liberty and Sarah Bernhardt connection is rare.

[@barbaradobson9298]

The lion bookends would you sell and nail those ?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I have one pair of lion bookends (the Swiss lion with shield in bronze) still, please email me at [e-mail] if interested

[@gardendaisy]

I dont see how selling bullfighting painting go well in Portland. How do you know what to bring where? Flamingos in FL yes.

[@gramnenew6196]

George has a long history of selling and buying in the North West.

[@gardendaisy]

@@gramnenew6196 yes i know

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

It sold right away! There's a lot of western Americana collectors and also Californians who have moved to Oregon of late. I have sold in my various markets a long time so I have a rhythm now

[@nemophilistnay]

George, do you still have the brass Victorian necklace or the Indian one?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Please send an email, I may have the indian one still

[@Okie-Girl]

Out of curiosity do you have any type of advertisement on your booth showing it belongs to you?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I just had something made finally for shows...the malls I'm in all send people right to my spaces if they ask though. I'm in Andrea's and Vintage Modern in St. Pete FLorida, Epic in Seattle, Tower Avenue Antiques in Centralia, WA, Star Center Mall in Snohomish, WA and Twin Lakes Antique Mall in Gilbertsville, KY
