Yes, Underpriced! Blue White, Homer Laughlin, Limoges, Bassett Furniture - Thrift with Me Dr. Lori

[@jeremymoss9867]

I am a 30 year old guy who collects Limoges porcelain, trust me…we younger folk can be serious collectors of antiques too. I have driven hours to acquire pieces and paid good money. Everything I know about it I’ve learned from Dr.Lori!! She has renewed my love of antiques and I’m so happy to have found her channel a few years ago. Keep being amazing!! We all love you and your incredible knowledge 💝

[@janethowe8812]

See my post. I totally understand your enthusiasm. I'm 70 and have a love of antiques, antique porcelain and glassware since I was 12 or 13 yrs old. Love Fenton. I love furniture as well. My father bought and sold antiques, so I guess I was born into it. I am fortunate to have some wonderful family heirlooms. None of which I can bear to part with. I agree, Dr Lori is a terrific, knowledgeable resource. If you chose wisely, what you have will only increase in value. Antiques are our history, and ultimately our legacy to those we love.

[@geri-atric1660]

You are so right mate and Dr Lori is one smart and adorable lady 🙏🏼❤️

[@robinoconnor848]

I found a set of nine hand painted Limoges dessert plates that I had Dr Lori evaluate. Boy was I surprised. Love her.

[@julieringuette329]

I have a limoges piece how do I find it’s value

[@connielilly1199]

I totally go around thrift stores and push items back so they don’t get knocked off and broken!! Love you Dr L!

[@DannaK247]

As crazy as it sounds, my middle daughter and I have actually gone into a store and place alike items together on shelves to assist people finding them all at once instead of having to search the shelves for them. We know how frustrating it is to have to hunt for the other pieces to sets when the stockers are to lazy to put them together on the shelves.

[@kjlovestoski9335]

Dr. Lori, Just love the Good Will shopping video's. My daughter has just graduated college and is furnishing her first real apartment. She loves all things traditional mixed with MCM styling. The idea of setting a table with China/Candles/Silver/beautiful table clothes is exactly what she and her friends love. They enjoy having cocktails in beautiful glasses and whiskey in the decanters is right in line with her taste. Brass is back as well as jewel moody colors. She is getting married and I am throwing her a Hi Tea Shower, of course. So i agree China/porcelain is on trend with young people today. They love the vintage quality of the pieces.

[@maryrandolph7751]

Aw, Dr. Lori, such a pleasure learning from you. Dollar plate day? 😅 Totally enjoyed you addressing furniture. Thanks Dr. Lori....

[@juliam248]

Hey Dr. Lori, thanks for the video. I picked up Villaroy and Boch Basket pattern plates and three rice bowls at my local Goodwill the other day. The rice bowls turned out to be insanely rare, and I was able to resell them even with the utensil marks on the inside. It's always fun to rummage around the glass and china sections of my local Goodwills.

[@judymelchert3966]

I like that you told us values on everyday furniture we may find at the thrift stores. I see such a variety every week. Hope your feeling better !

[@CJ21CJ]

Dr Lori, I love these videos of you out in the wild!! Keep them coming please! Do you ever EVER keep anything when out doing these videos? I’d be so tempted to!

[@rufusbrownstone6190]

Thank you Dr. Lori for your time to help us see what you see 😎 God bless you 🙏 📖 🙏 🧎‍♀️ 🙏 🧎‍♂️

[@valerierennison7616]

Awww, thank you Dr Lori for showing the treasures❤

[@kathyressler4764]

Thank you for walking us through the furniture area. Your explanations of what to look for and probably what to walk away from makes it so much easier to learn.

[@sueferguson7288]

😮I love the old dry sink, some work, lots of potential!!!

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

The "German Trying To Look Like Limoges" plates are pretty ---- would look nice with some Belleek serving pieces I think. At 5:45 when you're showing the lovely rose and gilded plate I see "Mikasa Annette" cups in the background. That was my wedding china (for everyday use) from 35 years ago and I have a TON of it!!! It's actually all wrapped up and stored in a cupboard in the garage in lieu of Corelle (which is also lighter weight) because my husband is a "breaker!!!" and that type of Mikasa dishware is fairly easy to chip or break. I just couldn't bear it (all those lovely people who spent good money - and it wasn't cheap, even in 1989) buying us our chosen china --- now I have mint-condition dinnerware I never see or use. That 70s Basset Dry Sink would make a stupendous changing station for a baby! You wouldn't feel that bad about altering it a bit and it's SO sturdy and strong.

[@janethowe8812]

Mikasa makes absolutely beautiful dinnerware. I'm so sorry you have yours packed away. My partner had a set of 4 (bachelor) Corelle dinner plates when I moved in with him. I replaced them with my stoneware. Fortunately, I didn't have a "breaker," but instead, someone who thought my dishes were "too heavy." He also didn't like my good set of Oneida flatware. The forks were "too heavy." Sometimes you just can't win. LOL.

[@Niamh07421]

I have a few of those beautiful glass/brass tables late 70's early 80's the glass was broken on one and the other one the glass was missing- took to a stone place and they made beautiful marble tops for me- it was marble left over from another job- so I got a great price- I left the tables with them and they made the tops and beveled the edges cost me less than 125.00 for a coffee table and an end table

[@BlueNJazzy]

beautiful blues. Some stuff I just snatch up. I’m having fun sorting through some of my stuff with what I have learned from you telling all of us over and over gain. Than you

[@Gussy818]

Love your videos... You have taught me so much. I appreciate you

[@AnalyticsAndResearch_Fast]

Dr. Laura, remind us occasionally during thrifting, whe you say " you could buy this pitcher for $1, but sell it for $40, where dear can we consider good places to sell? The same for picture, aka artwork, buy a painting for $10 but bcuz of a, b, c criteria market value is about $200, again ideas on where to best sell this particular item might be, where? Thanks Dr. Laura!❤

[@DrLoriV]

Have you watched my videos that focus on reselling? Have you read my articles on my website at www.DrLoriV.com where I talk about reselling? I also offer classes on reselling.

[@JK-wb5vi]

Love your videos! Learn so much. I’m over 60, your never to old to learn something. Also love your white purse. I’ve seen it in a few videos. Would love to get one in that size if you wouldn’t mind sharing that information. Thanks again for all your videos. ❤😊

[@conniesax3529]

I live in south Texas and we have very few thrift stores our Goodwill is awful, you hardly ever find any European China. Y'all are very fortunate!

[@cathym8053]

Thank you Dr. Lori. I love going to antique shops. This will be no surprise to you but a few years ago at an Amish resale store there was an old stand up phone booth, it had a sold tag on it. That was the first phone booth I have seen in about 30 years. I really love and miss this things of yester-year. God Bless you

[@fiorenzaattanasio4796]

I love thrifting with you Dr Lori. Thank you ❤

Nice , lively, enthusiastic video. Thanks.

[@trudy285]

This was fun Dr. Lori! ☺️ Thank you! 🤗💐 My favorite were the two studio artist plates. If l had them, they would be hung on a wall. 🥰 I have a set of Homer Laughlin in very good condition that l got dirt cheap years ago. I am thinking about selling the set this spring. God Bless You! ☺️✌️❤️🦋🙏

[@trinasthings]

Re-doing furniture can be fun & making some money at it is always nice.

[@lorieedmonds5514]

Thanks for these videos ❤

[@FleaMarketJohn]

Good bargains! Thanks Dr. Lori for the examples of both china and furniture!

[@juliezork7425]

That piece of Bassett furniture would make a really cute diaper changing station in a nursery!

[@sueferguson7288]

I recognized Homer Laughlin right away!!!!

[@craftyladies7777]

Wow, great prices compared to Florida. Next time I'm home (Waterbury, CT) ill have to take a ride to Glastonbury!

[@RKusmie64]

The prices wherever I see you shop are amazing compared to where I live. My area isn't totally outrageous like some places, but is definitely higher than 4-5 years ago.

[@gregoryschmitt2257]

Dr Lori, you are so sweet! And that sweet is filled with goodness!!

[@jimmiemitchell1619]

My momma had the Homer Laughlin. She got it piece by piece at the Elmore's 5 & 10.

[@lindalacey9671]

Every time I see Homer Laughlin China , WV I smile. Grew up across the river from there. Many friends and family worked there.❤ E. Liverpool , Ohio known as the OhioPottery Capital of the World. Everyone had a family member at one generation or another that worked at one of the potteries😂 Great place to grow up in the 60s and 70s.

[@debraadamsadams6955]

I collect old plates. I created a plate wall. Thank you for the video on old plates.

[@KathyLange-p8t]

I could see the Bassett piece painted and used in a babies room. (Changing table and storage)

[@DrLoriV]

Good idea.

[@sherrizanoli1398]

Dr. Lori, with the Bassett made cabinet with top. I would sand it down, stain it and make it a bathroom vanity with 2 top bowl sinks on it.

[@janabuchheit3389]

Thanks

[@darlenemc3586]

The dollar Homer Laughlin piece would look charming with an African violet planted in it. Of course with a hole drilled in the bottom.

[@robinrubendunst869]

I love “stuff,” so very happy to find your channel. How can I learn to “flip” items though? Where are the markets?

[@DrLoriV]

Have you watched my videos that focus on reselling? Have you read my articles on my website at www.DrLoriV.com where I talk about reselling? I also offer classes on reselling.

[@lennybuttz2162]

I liked the glass coffee table but I wonder if it would effect the value if the base were painted black? That's what I would want to do with it, give it nice mat black finish.

[@DrLoriV]

Anytime an object is altered, it alters the value. Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse.

[@conniestiles9083]

You're having way too much fun!

[@AmazingPinoyPicker-kr7qd]

Love your video and new subscribe 😊

[@angelatownsend3522]

How do I get to be your bestie so you can tell me where you are going before you go and you be on my speed dial? Lol! Love you Dr. Lori!

[@brooke7464]

I've got limoge, balvaria, Austria and even a german biscuit jar, golden blossom candle sticks from china (Macau). Ive even got somethat does not have a makers mark. I've always loved stuff like that. So if i see something at goodwill and its in good condition and i like it then I'll rescue it.

[@barbaragodfrey1402]

You’re the best. Love that you don’t resell.

[@JK-wb5vi]

Wow it is funny that the tables are so differently priced !

[@luciaregalado3479]

Hi Dr. Laurie I wish that you had explained what semi vitreous means in connection with that blue and white plate.

[@DrLoriV]

Good question to ask during my next Ask Dr. Lori LIVE video so I can answer in detail and teach everyone watching. Check my website for the next date.

[@kimcissell1905]

Changing table. Coffee stand

[@feep4756]

id love to have you value antiques etc from the UK....not much idea what sells over here!

[@alisongomes684]

Thank you for another great shopping trip. I have a beautiful set of dishes from my grandmother called Indiana summer. No one wants them in the family. Is there any value in them. Thank you?

[@DrLoriV]

Many factors affect value. I can help, but need to see the dishes. Check out my website for options.

[@GeschichtenUndGedanken]

Nice!

[@Les0613]

Don't forget to give Dr Lori a like folks

[@janethowe8812]

I have a Haviland Limoges tea set that I acquired when I was a young teen. I'm now 70. So you can see how long I've been a lover of Limoges. This is a set of 8 cups, saucers and small plates. The cups are very thin, very small. I was told when I was a kid, by an in-the-know great- great auntie, that this particular factory in France had likely been destroyed during WW2. It has a delicate flower motif with gold trim. As I said, the cups and saucers are extremely thin (almost transparent) porcelain. It almost looks too small for an adult tea cup. Unless that was the fashion of the Brits, etc, during the 1800s. I'm thinking it may have been a child's tea set. I know that more affluent families may have purchased fine china play tea sets for their daughters, around late 1800s. I have no idea the value of this set, but would love to find out. Does anyone know of online resources that I might use to research these? I don't think it has a pattern name on the bottom, but I could certainly make a match visually. I'm not so concerned about the value of it. Curious, but I probably could never part with it. Unless, of course, I could retire to the Bahamas on it. Then I might consider it. Lol. I just thought this might be a good place to get some suggestions from others, since I don't know sites to research. Any help anyone can give me would be appreciated. Ty.

[@DrLoriV]

I can help. Many factors affect value so I need to see the set. See the options on my website.

[@Betharoot]

Is it a good idea to test the plates for lead if they are to be eaten from?

[@DrLoriV]

I would turn the oak cabinet into a baby changing table.

[@GeschichtenUndGedanken]

How are you, Dr. Lori? Hello everybody?

[@kona702]

How can you tell if it's hand-painted or not and not transfer ware?

[@DrLoriV]

I currently offer the opportunity to ask specific questions during my Ask Dr. Lori LIVE videos. Check the schedule on my website for my next LIVE Q&A. I'm happy to share my education and expertise to teach not only you, but others watching too. It's also free to use the search features on my channel or on my website to find my valuable information in videos and articles where I have talked about hand painted pieces and transferware.
