MARSHALL An antique show turns into something much bigger when bargains, unexpected finds and a passionate collector community all come together.
We’re headed to ‘Tique Stock in Marshall, Michigan, where glass enthusiasts, antique and vintage collectors, resellers and decorators gather for a weekend of shopping, auctions and appraisals. Scarce Fenton and studio glass, precious and costume jewelry, art pottery, toys, primitives and other vintage finds compete for attention. An estate diamond ring finds a new owner, and the show is on as collectors search the tables for something special.
Bargains abound, but the best pieces do not wait. A striped MCM glass set for $30, a Fenton cake plate for $25 and a table full of $3 salt dips sell before we can reach them. We still snag a unique MCM nude enamel-on-copper dish, a fantastic pair of earrings from a Chicago socialite and a $3 wood puzzle that may drive us crazy until it sells. Then the auction begins, where silent and live bidders compete as Heidi of Rosie’s Auction House calls the sale. The auction and our appraisal fair are also shown on our Live channel.
Back at the show, the people make the weekend even more memorable. We meet a new Fenton painter, a blogger who travels much as I do, a YouTuber who helps preserve and restore damaged antiques, and many other collectors who bring their knowledge, enthusiasm and personal stories to the event. We hope this encourages you to join us Sep. 11–13 for the next ‘Tique Stock in Marshall, Michigan, on 18 1/2 Mile Road near Tekonsha. Pre-bidding and pictures of the current auction are available now at / 1cqyeyv7mu

A comprehensive tour of antique shows and events, including Teakstock and Teak Saga, showcasing a vast array of vintage collectibles. The content emphasizes the technical details of glassware, the variety of mid-century pottery, and the vibrant social community of dealers and collectors who share knowledge and passion for historical preservation.
I sure have a pile to take to Teakstock this weekend.
Such a fun show.
Not like most antique shows, it is more about the antique community and it's just so much
fun.
Let me show you.
Here's some of what happened last time.
Here we are.
Teakstock.
There's starting to be a crowd forming.
The auction is coming up in an hour and a half.
A lot of people come in on Friday and set up for the weekend when it's the busiest.
I love this Enid Collin purse.
Most of these folks are the Twisted Sisters, they call themselves, and they are really
fun.
This is the Apple of my eye.
I don't see this box purse very often.
They're asking $100.
Some of their prices are actually really good.
They've got this Karl Radke good paper wave maker.
I met him back in the 1990s, and this one is signed and they're only asking $30.
I'm tempted to get that, and oh, this is a neat Victorian piece.
Look at the opal fire.
You can see it in the sun.
This is oxblood, that red color, which is not easy to find.
It glows green because it has antimony in it.
That is a thing they used in Victorian era glass that also glows.
It's not just uranium that glows.
I've had this piece once before.
It's really nice.
The painting is great.
You're going to see a lot of pretty Fenton because a lot of the folks here come because
they know Rosie's Auction House from various places they sell.
And here's some Fenton that you don't see so often, a little more modernist looking.
Everybody thinks Fenton is just frilly, but look at this with the spangles.
That's an unusual piece.
This one is a Dave Fetty.
He did a lot of their more modernist designs with poles, and this is also Dave Fetty.
They're asking $200, and this is spatterglass.
It's got the DF signature of Dave Fetty, and it looks a lot like Czech glass from the 30s.
Blue resin grapes.
Blue is a great color.
I have a red set right now, but I really like them in blue.
And we see carnival vases here.
Now I always call these trunk vases, but in the South they referred to them as funeral
vases because they were commonly used at funerals at the time.
And this one is a Fenton piece, early Fenton from about 1915.
Bjorn Windblad did this wall plaque.
$16 is a good price on that.
Of course we're seeing a lot of brass selling.
I really like the globe.
That's Korean made from the 80s, but I really like this.
This is from the 19-teens or 20s, and she's got a turban, sort of a gypsy look, $45.
Hand painted.
Very pretty.
Hello!
Hi!
Laura and Tina are just setting up.
They came from Chicago, and look, she's got a Viking glass owl fairy lamp.
You don't see these very often, and you said you're not seeing a lot of fairy lamps in
Chicago these days.
No.
Not at the antique malls.
Yeah.
Nothing left.
Wow.
Yeah.
It's just gone so crazy.
And here they've got three, including the Rosaline, and I love that in Rosaline.
I have not actually had this one before, and you said this one actually has UV glow.
Isn't that interesting?
Because you don't usually see that with the Rosaline, but the Uranium, of course, that
glows really strongly.
And then they have this.
This is also hard to find in Fenton because it's the black crest with the, what is it
they call this again?
I forget.
I should know.
Yes, black rose.
That's right.
And in the beaded pattern there, the beaded melon, the black rose was really hard for
them to do because the black and the pink were not really compatible, the coefficient
of cooling.
They lost a lot of these in production, so they made them for a very brief time.
They're asking $80 on that, which is a very fair price because this one actually is good.
Oftentimes the colors are sort of runny, and that one's really well done.
Who made these?
This one is an amazing.
Interesting.
And the tops are glass.
Yeah, that is cool.
They probably 1970s then, and these hobnails, they almost seem like Fenton because they're
pointed, but they're a little bit rounded at the end.
So I wonder if that might've been maybe Kempel glass or one of the other smaller West Virginia.
I don't really know either.
Did Heidi look at those?
No.
Oh, we'll have to have her see.
She might know right away.
She knows so much about glass.
It's amazing seeing her around here.
This is cute.
The moss or bunny on the nest, and this one's hand painted.
I don't see a lot of painted moss.
And of course with hens on the nest being so popular, well, everything else on nests
are too.
Oh, those are cool.
Cambridge.
Yeah.
In this light, it's hard to tell, but those definitely glow.
Yep.
Yeah.
You can see it a little bit there.
And they're Cambridge.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's a great color.
Yeah.
Cambridge glass was such a great maker and they went out of business in 1957.
So these have some age.
I had bought a bunch of these pieces and I was mentioning in another video that sometimes
they glow and sometimes they don't because they got cullet.
This is acro agate and they got the cullet from surrounding glass factories.
So it all just depended whether the cullet they got had uranium in it or not.
Even two pieces that are the same color, one might glow and one might not.
And she's asking 22, which is about what I get for them when they glow.
And then there's a whole bunch of marbles back there and I'm going to have to spend
some time with those because we have marble collectors in our midst and a couple of those
glow too.
You can see right there for the same reason.
Russ has just shown up and set up and wow, he's got some really great animals.
Look at that one with the natural markings.
This is a piece you don't see with the cat.
Love the ghost.
The figurines are very popular now.
And boy, are there the swing vases here.
Where'd I put my money?
This is a cranberry glass lamp they made that you don't see very often.
It's an inverted bowl on a pitcher on an inverted bowl.
I think somebody put that together in the 40s or so, 40s or 50s.
I'll find something else later.
And this is fun, the golfer clock.
Another different Fenn piece and then they have all sorts of the dealer flags.
This is Amy's booth.
She's from Jackson nearby here.
And this is a great piece.
I used to think these were pilgrim glass, but now I think they're in poly.
Pilgrim did a similar shape though in the early 70s.
This is American Vist Sequoia ware and I've never seen this three bowl, two tiered server.
45 is a pretty fair price on that.
I like the hat pin holder and she's got a tumble up.
She's got a few things that are a little different than some of the other dealers here.
I really like this piece.
This is Weller.
I always like that glaze.
And around the back here, I like this piece too of Mexican pottery.
Around the back, she has this really cool castellated piece, Bohemian glass with enameling
in an American made Darby silver plate quadruple plate piece.
Quadruple plate means 1896 to about 1910.
And she has a really nice lucite purse and I don't have any of these.
She's asking $175 and that's actually about right on this piece because of this clasp.
It's 50s.
It's a good color.
But we're going to take her original price she paid off.
She was smart.
She went home and came back with fairy lamps because she sold a bunch yesterday.
I think we sold every fairy lamp in the place.
And so now we've got this Fenton Rosalie, which is really great.
A couple of testered glass and milk glass in the Christmas.
She also has a single apartment size apron and that's only $65 for the Petro.
That's a good deal.
Some smart dealers bring things other than glass because people buy lots of things and
these folks have a really good variety of stuff.
They've got prints.
They have paintings.
Landscape paintings seem to be becoming popular again.
This is a Canadian artist.
Yeah.
That's really cute.
The Queen Elizabeth.
Yes.
This is the Magic.
This is a limited edition print based on a 19th century print along the lines of Currier
and Ives, but it was originally by A.F.
Peterson.
I'm not used to seeing this in Michigan.
This is Pacific Stoneware out of Portland and it has the Bennett Welsh signature.
He took an old crockery making company in Portland, kept making the crocks, and then
started making modernist stoneware in the 1970s.
It was very popular for a period of time and it was distributed all over the country
so you will see it.
They've got $30 on that which is a fair price.
Jurae is known for the big wall sculpture, but DeMott did a lot of the smaller brass
sculptures and various things.
I have their sailboat and the mailbox.
This is the biplane.
It is $39.99 and that seems to be about the going rate because these are something people
remember from the 70s and they are popular again.
Metropolitan Flowers shows all sorts of things at the Metropolitan Museum that relate to
floral designs, Chinese imperial prints, and this very pretty still life by David Hockney
on the right who was inspired by his visit to Japan in the 30s.
The red-headed outfield and other baseball stories.
And I did not realize they hid anything outside of the western genre, so this would be an
interesting one to look for for somebody who is a baseball fan or a Zane Gray fan to
see if they like this style of writing.
And it's $12.
We got the buy of the century here.
I'm so glad.
It was just beautiful and I'm so glad I had it for you and it looks really good on.
And you even have a nice manicure to show off with it.
So our friend and enamor Amy is here and she is doing something.
We're gonna have some fun here.
I found this stocking and we're all signing it.
And Heidi can put it up for Christmas.
That is so fun.
Look at that.
I love vintage.
I do too.
When they have the name on them.
It's so cool and yeah, this is a surprise so I better put it away in case she comes
around the corner.
And my friend Lena is just sort of straightening up.
She made her first sale, a very pretty Fenton Angel, and she brought this very fun hat.
It looks like I came from outer space.
I love it.
I'm gonna wear it long enough to tell you to please subscribe.

This is a fun community event that we're at here and we invite all of you to come see

Come and participate in things like this.
It is just really fun to be with people who share your passion for antiques and vintage.
This is a good deal.
I have to tell you, I think I'm going to be doing some shopping here.
This is McCoy.
It's the butterfly and I really like the butterfly pattern from the 1930s and 40s and only $15.
for the window box is a good deal.
This booth is our friend Chimmy and she is helping someone who is clearing out an estate
sale so they have all sorts of variety here.
The McDonald's nug is a fire thing that is very popular now and Martha Stewart says egg
cups are coming back and they're only asking eight for the bride and groom.
Those are very cute.
The painting looks similar to Clemonson's California pottery but it doesn't have their
label so I'm not sure who did these.
Definitely 1940s or 50s.
Cute tunes.
These were given out similar to the Kentucky Derby for a while and it showed all the winners
of the Indy 500 with the race logo on it and she's got the original boxed set.
And these are, it's a, they were Christmas.
Oh really?
My stepfather went to the Indy for like 40 some years in a row but it was from Tony Hallman
who used to own the track.
Oh that's so cool.
Oh I did not know that about them.
What a great piece of information.
Timmy is something of a historian.
We've had some pretty good conversations about that.
And she's got, wow this seems like a very good price on the Nash Cruise.
She's looking at that too.
She's trying to decide.
This one's really cute too.
Tell Jill if she doesn't buy it I will.
He he he.
Oh that is nice.
Yeah that is nice and it's clean and I really like the bugle beads.
Yeah.
And I had several of these but Jill bought a couple of them.
This one's an iris.
Yeah.
So.
That's a great price.
This one's Miss Smith's little.
Atomizer.
You can replace the atomizers.
She said.
Yeah you have to go online.
I like the chip card mirrored shoe.
I always think those are attractive.
And oh.
This keeps blowing up.
Lots of gloves.
Yeah we have a little bit of wind today.
At least we were not rainy.
Oh wow.
Yeah Hankerson at a dollar a piece I bet you did.
It's not all just high end retail and it's not all Fenton glass.
There are figurals and made in Japan pieces and a lot of different categories here.
And some of it is resale price for sure.
That brings us to Discount Deb who you saw in the advertisement that we did.
And well she's appropriately named because her prices are really great.
And she.
How do you get your stuff?
I shop a lot of second hand stores, yard sales, state sale.
Yeah you're really careful about what you pay and so you are able to get really good
deals.
I really like the globe.
This is a fun set from the Bicentennial and I have never seen that set before.
And I'm not sure who made them but I think it's pretty interesting.
How much is that set?
20.
20?
Yep.
See her prices are good.
Hens on Nesser.
Well.
Getting scarcer than hen's teeth because everybody is picking these up now.
This is the really big one in the milk glass.
And then this one with the beads is Indiana glass.
You always can tell the Indiana because it has this circle from the mold on the top.
Those were from the 1970s and so many people grew up with those that everyone is wild for
them again now.
And there's one in the newer carnival glass.
Newer being 1980s in that color and you see the shine and the iridescence again.
These glasses sell every time I get them with the red stripes.
Hazel Atlas.
And yeah they're in really good condition.
I don't know what her price is on these but they typically sell pretty well.
So I'll have to ask her about those.
And then she's got a bunch of Victorian enameled tumblers.
These are fun to collect.
You can mix and match.
There's a lot of orphans that used to be with beverage sets or were just done by themselves.
All the painting was done in enamel with glass so it's fired on.
So it will stay on.
And prices on these are often only in the $10 to $15 range these days.
So you can amass a pretty nice collection.
And then this is Fenton's Jade from the 1920s.
Really great color and you can tell Fenton because of these feet in that center.
And that is a good deal for that.
We had a bunch of this in an estate sale in Seattle and we got more than that at estate
sale prices.
And then this is incredibly well priced.
The Fenton cake plate in the Spanish lace from about 1970.
I really should buy that, honestly.
Now this is cool and I don't know this particular piece.
She's only got $8 on it and it's great enamelware and look, it's got nudes on it.
Wow.
Yeah, I think I need to do some shopping.
Now this is fairly thin.
There were two companies that made the blanks for these.
The thinner company is not as high quality and is more prone to chipping so you have
to be careful.
But this one seems to be in really good condition.
And there are other things here as well.
Maggie's Pride Holson dog food and treats.
They actually are made of really good stuff.
In fact I should probably get some and send to Bo.
Okay, well Bo is getting these because these are chicken livers which do not sound good
to me but he will love them.
They have a food vendor who actually has decent food.
Egg muffin, bacon and ham, walking tacos, as well as the usual burgers and hot dogs.
And someone who does crab florals.
If you buy a pretty vase here you can fill it with something.
Also brings a lot of stuff that is a variety of vintage and resale, bargains for people
who are flipping.
This is a cool Randsburg pottery holder for paper towels from the 1950s.
I say Randsburg pottery because they mainly did pottery but in this case they did some
tinware as well.
And she's got some really good prices on some Francomami and Aztec.
It's actually half off these prices?
Oh wow.
Jill's getting ready to, yeah.
Old golfers never die, they just lose their balls.
Aww, that's so sweet.
I should give it to him.
Yeah.
Well I know someone who's coming here who's a golfer so we might send him that way.
Or we'll send his wife.
Dog tired in the evening, maybe he's been growling too much all day.
That is good advice right there.
I like the Georges Briard tray.
This was one of the first designs he did and had done by Columbia Enamelware and he saved
their business as a result.
Ooh, and she has a Winslow Anderson Blanco Cornucopia.
And I don't see a price on it and I want that so I'm going to ask.
Another cool swung vase as well.
Look at that hat.
And no, I'm not going to put that one on.
Where did the culet come from?
From the culet, right across from the street from Dave Fetty, his house.
Janet and Dave let us in and it's four piece, five each or four for 15.
Wow, that's really cool.
Oh yeah, because it's beautiful.
People use it in gardens.
People repurpose it in various ways.
They make stained glass windows out of it and chunks.
I've seen that done.
Yeah.
There was a famous designer in the 60s who did that and if you can, if you have the capacity
with resin work to do it yourself, you can do it.
Yeah.
It's, that's, and how neat that it came from Dave Fetty.
Look how this Westmoreland satin glass stands out in this field of carnival glass.
That is really cool.
It's a great way to mix them and of course, great for Halloween, but the black is nice
because you can use it in all sorts of different ways.
Now carnival glass, they have a couple of different generations here.
We had a little bit of rain earlier.
This one is the stag and holly and that's a 1910s era piece and you notice the mellowness
of the iridescence.
Now compare that to the 1950s when they started doing it on depression glass like this one,
which is iris and herringbone, a lot more shiny, a lot more like water in an oil slick
is how I describe it.
Compare that to this piece and see how much mellower and softer the older pieces are.
This one is nice.
Only $5 and it's got opalescent edge, all three of those too.
All right and then in here, in addition to some furniture and some hats, I really like
this children's furniture.
All these wood pieces from the 1940s and 50s.
I don't know whether they look like they might be manufactured.
Ah, yes, Strombecker.
That makes sense.
Strombecker did a lot of toy pianos and other things and these are just great.
Heidi is getting ready for the auction.
I'm going to quickly show you a little bit of this.
You hopefully previewed this online.
You always can preview and pre-bid and there are beautiful things in this and a few of
them are mine, including this.
This is Carl Romanelli and I've just listed it as Hager because I didn't have the piece
in my hands, but that was by Metlox.
Also a bunch of lamps and mine is featured in the middle, but there are some really cool
ones, including Phoenix Glass, this 50s one with the fantastic shade and I love those,
and then the one that I brought, as well as some Custard Glass and that beautiful blue
green.
Prince Janet and Susan are here.
Hello, it's great to see you again, and they are unpacking and they've got cool stuff.
Is that Duret again?
You guys find the Duret, I'm so impressed.
Wow.
Taught us about them.
That's so cool.
I have not seen that one before.
I really like that.
Janet is taking these out and I have never owned this set.
They are so cool.
They're from the era of cocktail culture in the 60s and they are Georges Briard.
Because of the skulls, these are really popular, $75 to $85 a piece online, and you have the
entire set.
I know people who have been trying for years to build the entire set.
I don't know what Paris Green was, it sounds very nice, but apparently it's not.
So Laura has a story about these.
I was in line for an estate sale and I was number two.
The number one person had gotten there at 6 a.m. and when they opened, he went straight
to the kitchen and he came running out saying, where are they?
Where are they?
They're supposed to be here.
I can't find them.
And as he's talking to the estate sale lady, a man comes down the stairs carrying these
glasses and a caddy.
And number one guy is like, I came here just for those.
Oh wow.
I have them.
And then they bargained.
And luckily the guy who had them in his hand was kind enough to say, okay, you can take
them.
Wow.
Oh, that was nice because it is first come first serve at estate sales.
That is so cool.
What a great story.
And how nice that somebody was willing to work it out.
My attitude at estate sales is if I'm first and I get something and it's for resale and
somebody's there and I know that they want it for their collection, I'll let them have
it.
If it's another reseller, sorry.
First come first serve.
And there's more costume jewelry here too.
I really like these.
They're pierced, but wow.
Look at the big dangles and these are clip-ons for $10.
Oh, those are mine.
Those are fantastic.
I think I'm going to pay them a little bit more.
Sometimes when I see something that I think is a super good deal and I know it's somebody
who doesn't usually sell, I'll step up and give a little bit more because I think those
are amazing.
The globe trotter socialite, she had Chanel, Fendi, Hermes, Louis Vuitton, like every high
end designer.
Full.
Well, I think they're really great.
I actually was going to pay you more, but since there's a missing stone, I will put
the extra money into it.
They're worth restoring.
They're just beautiful.
Yes.
I like the pine bench.
Kay brought that.
That is really cool.
All handmade.
You know, there's so much interest in slab tables that any wood furniture like that,
it's got a primitive look, but it's well-made and strong and they have some neat jewelry
too.
I like the color of these beads and you can tell it's got the older clasp.
So that's 1960s or 70s and over here, salt dips and $3 each.
That's a great price.
I especially like this one.
It almost looks like an eye bath, but it's a little too wide, but lots of neat patterns.
These are really fun to collect and here's some more salt dips and of course they come
in all sorts of different materials.
This is Lennox, early Lennox from about 1920.
So you've got porcelain.
This one's from Austria.
You have pedestals like this with the trophy bowl.
It's just a cool area to collect.
Eileen came from New York.
She's going to help with the auction, but she's got a lot of stuff.
We've got a lot of wind, so we're kind of putting things down low.
Hello there.
But I really think I have to own this.
This is one I entitled Homecoming because the symbol on it is the homecoming symbol
for the Indians.
That's really neat.
I've never seen anyone paint one with a Native American design.
It would have inspired you to do that.
I have done one other one.
I sold it for $60 and the person who got it put it online and sold it for $200.
Wow.
Very pretty.
Your style is different than I see with most of the painters.
It's really nice and very saturated colors too.
Is this cold paint or do you fire?
It's oven baked.
You can wash it.
Do not scratch at it.
It will come off.
Right, exactly.
So it's kind of a level between, so it's semi-permanent as long as you take care of it.
Correct.
They're just beautiful.
This is cool.
Look at that.
Another Native American design.
I do really like your work.
It's so different than I've seen other people paint on Fenton.
She's really good.
I told her to bring a few things to show you.
What got you started on this?
I just like to paint.
It's so pretty.
It works really good.
I mean the detail is good.
Now do you sign the pieces?
Yes.
Ah, okay.
I'm going to have to show your signature here then.
There we go.
Deb Smith.
I sell Native American things out west in my malls there and these would be so nice
in them.
I'm very impressed with what you're doing and I love that it's a labor of love for you
but if you ever do decide to sell it I would definitely be interested in a piece.
This is my friend Connie Jean's space and she's got this cool picnic basket.
I do really well with picnic baskets and they're starting to sell for pretty good money.
A bunch of the John B. Taylor Louisville stoneware in the grape pattern.
Six for 42 is actually a pretty good deal on those.
I like the Pyrex homestead.
I think that's a fun pattern.
I've got this in yellow.
I actually think I prefer it in the peach and this looks like spatterware that might
be on enamel or heavy pottery but it is actually Stangle Town and Country.
They did this in the 1970s.
It's a very rustic look but a little easier to use and something you could put in the
dishwasher and there she's got 25 on that and then I really am a fan of the Mary Hadley.
I have one of these in my stock in Kentucky right now too.
The kiddie bowls where the cat gets to the bottom and there's a delicious mouse looking
at it or you can get the bigger bowl with the cat and the fish.
Those are really great and Louisville stoneware of course Mary Hadley decorated for them first
before she started her own factory so you see the similarity in the work on the bowl
there with the mice and you know it's funny there's all this spent in the show.
So this is the first booth I've seen any of the shoes with the cat in and the whole line
and $15 a piece is a good deal on those.
The thing in her booth that I've looked at three times which I think means I need to
get it is this.
It's a puzzle game.
She's only got $3 on it.
It's wooden.
You have to turn it all around in order to get the marbles to come out and that will
drive me insane but I think it'll be fun to try.
In front of the coach bag are two Coors pottery pieces and $25 a piece is a good deal.
I mean there are bargains to be had at this place.
It's got the Coors mark on the bottom.
They are related to the Coors family who did the beer.
These were very popular in the depression era.
Now the coach bag let's see how they have this priced $125.
This is a genuine coach.
You have to look at the patterning and the way it's made and the quality to say for sure.
These were very popular in the 70s.
The silent film and early talkie characters.
You see Mae West and you see W.C. Fields and you see Abbott and Costello and they were
chalkware figures.
We're seeing those starting to come out of estates now.
And I really like this piece.
This is Moriage with the beading.
Japanese 1910s or so.
Lovely little trophy vase.
Just all the detail for such a small piece.
All of that enameling had to be dotted on by hand and then fired.
All this tracery.
So I really do respect the work behind it.
We have a YouTuber who does restoration and rehab.
Tell us your name and about your channel.
Okay so I'm Yvonne from Ginger Chick Rehab.
I am a reseller but I also share with you how to take items that are going to the junkyard
and I'm going to show you how to save them.
Not necessarily craft them and bedazzle them but I'm going to get them to look more primitive,
more folk art and get them back out to be beautiful home decor.
There'll be things and I look and I say oh it's neat but it's a little as is and my customers
won't buy it that way.
What do I do?
And I hate to push things in a landfill you know.
And I'm the person that's looking for the as is items.
That's perfect.
We are having a lot of wind today so swung vases are laying on their side to be safe
but there's a nice selection here.
The porcelain game plates are very pretty.
You have fish plates and game plates and the idea was that you would have something very
fancy to serve fancy things on at the table.
This one's Bavarian.
These were very popular between about the 1880s and the 19-teens or so.
This one is French Limoges.
They're asking $50 for that.
And then you have the pheasants and the other game birds.
Some are transferware.
Some are hand painted.
I especially like this fish plate.
Good colors.
An artist's signature.
Then that means it was a factory artist.
And this is also French even though it doesn't say so on the back.
It should date to about 1890.
I like the stife figures as well.
Elephant is $85.
The seeded elephant, Jumbo, he's $85 and he has his bell.
This is important on this one.
It's supposed to have the bell.
If it's missing it's not all there.
And only $20 on the little rhino.
A lot of people get started on the small pieces.
The owl is cute as can be.
And the toitle.
Of all the Fenton name plaques, the really scarce one in color is this.
It's the Lotus Mist which is like a green Burmese.
They're asking around $200 because that one is really hard to get.
Oh and a bunch of the spaghetti stuff.
The loved one.
That one is great.
That sells very readily.
They have the Indian head and the woman.
These are so much fun.
And this is Amy who has come to sell with us.
And thank you so much.
And you're the one who brought all the fairy lamps.
Yes, I have a collection of fairy lamps that are ready to move on.
That's great.
Well, as soon as the auction takes its break I have a feeling that they're going to realize
there are none in there and so hopefully you'll sell out.
Yes, that would be wonderful.
I know the bittersweet is super popular.
I have to be honest, everybody loves the swung vases and I do too.
But I really like these ewers.
It's the same concept.
They had to do a big draw and then they would take this end, pull it even more, and fold
it over to make the handle and attach it while it was still molten hot so that that's a good
fuse and can be used as a handle.
I have one in green but the bittersweet is a really great piece.
And next to it is a really nice acorn.
I love that color.
They're asking $200 for that.
This is only $2.
This is Park Avenue.
It was done in the 80s.
Anchor Hawking did it.
It's the same pattern as their Manhattan glass from the 30s but they did the azure blue so
that if they did a piece that had been done originally they would do it in the blue so
you knew it was from that era and so the collectors of Manhattan, it didn't destroy the value
of their collection and you can add it and I collect both.
That's a great price.
Of course, we're not far from Battle Creek and my family worked for Kellogg's and here's
a bunch of Kellogg's stuff.
This paper hat when Tony the Tiger had a football-shaped head.
These are from the factory tour.
Okay.
They have a 68-day.
Very cool.
For our golfers, well, we have wood shaft golf clubs and if you're not buying the new
ones that are valuable because they can be used by new golfers, the old ones are the
ones to get because the people who want them as decoration look for these and they typically
price in a $25 and $30 each ring.
Completely wood.
Not composition.
Not metal.
All wood all the way.
Unpacking the last few things for the auction.
The auction is so much fun and watching Heidi, it's so impressive to see her run an auction.
Here's a taste of what happened the last time.
We are going into the auction because Heidi would like a break so I'm going to be up next.
All right.
Somebody explained to me why the base is magnetic.
Is there a reason for that?
So this was the touch?
It's so you can put it on the dashboard of your car.
I'm at $25 over here with the $30, $35, $40, $45, $65, $70, $70 down, $75, $70 down.
Sold at $65.
You can watch the auctions on the Antique Nomad Live while they're happening or play
the old ones.
Here is the link to the current catalog.
And the best thing is for you folks who aren't able to go to the show, you can bid on the
auction ahead of time.
So this is Ruth and she's Thrifted by Design.
She's out of Minneapolis and she's here showing with us today with her husband Don.
And wow, look at that, 20% off your first online order.
And let me show you some of the stuff they've got because they do have some really cool
things.
I've always loved the Friendship Bird Pyrex and this is a nice large size in good condition.
And actually what I'm holding here, I suspect this is, are these going to be forks or nut
crack?
Oh yes, that's very nice, a little cake set.
That would be nice for a bride.
I'm sure these glow, don't they?
Yeah, these are great.
The Tree of Life.
Love the handles.
And wow, $13.99 and then you see the discount if you order online.
So anything that doesn't sell here I'm sure will be available through the website.
They've also got a nice selection of ice buckets and these are all in really great shape.
We're seeing a lot of interest in these again because they're handy for things other than
champagne and they're not just for the bar.
You're having any sort of outdoor stuff with beverages, these are handy to have.
And they've got prices on the Chrome X as low as $25.
It's really important with these that they not have any scratches and this one's in great
condition.
Hammered Copper is a lot of fun.
There are a lot of kits where you could do these as late as the 50s and 60s and this
one has the bamboo frame.
I like the horse figures here.
This one is a briar.
This is neat.
This is Murano and look at the color combination on that.
That is just great.
And then they have the horse brasses.
These are neat because they are strips of horse brasses together and so they come with
the leather presentation piece.
Yeah, there is just all sorts of interesting stuff at this show.
This is Avie and she was helping with the auction and she's just bought this set of
Hazel Atlas striped glasses and you got the entire set for $30.
I did.
You have a big following and a slightly different twist of what we do.
Tell us about it.
Yes, I travel the country to interview antique dealers and vintage dealers.
Myself, I grew up with no backstory like most people do.
They're multi-generational Americans.
So it was a little lonely to hear that, oh, I inherited this and I was like, you know,
maybe if I start collecting and learning, I will be able to pass that on to my children
and leave them a piece of me.
Oh, that's really great.
I'm very intrigued by this.
What's the most interesting thing you've come across in your travels?
This antique mall that I found in the middle of nowhere called Back in Time Antiques and
Boutiques in a very small town in Tennessee.
Renowned for their insane acquisitions on fairy lamps, pens on the nest and glass.
Oh, all the stuff that's really hot right now.
How would they find you on Facebook?
So they can find me at the Vintage Shack and it's an image of me.
You can't miss it.
I love sharing the history of these things with people too.
So we have that in common and I will travel more and find some new places.
Oh, yeah.
And the more you travel, the more people you meet.
That's right.
It's so fun.
I love this business.
It's great to find people that have commonality with you.
Of course, spent in milk glass was wildly popular in the 1960s and you see all sorts
of different pieces and some of them seem like they sell really quickly.
Anything with this star-shaped configuration seems to sell.
Anything that is swung or pulled or has fingers seems to sell.
This candy jar sells pretty well because it's very fancy looking.
And, of course, the water pitcher and the water set is a good seller too.
Wow, $5 on this.
This is 1890s early American press glass in the Delaware pattern with that phlox flower on it.
There were a whole bunch of patterns named after states at that time.
U.S. glass made them.
It's not all just glass here.
The professional wraparound moist heating pad with a full two-year warranty.
That is right out of the 70s.
Look at that outfit he's wearing.
I've got a guy who specializes in jigsaw puzzles on the internet.
That's all he sells and they're asking $5 for this one from about 1950.
I wonder if he might like that.
What's great is you can bring your glamper and stay here for free and set up for free.
It's a really fun event.
Here's some more carnival glass.
This is a really nice cherry pattern and only $20.
I mean the prices right now on early carnival, especially marigold pieces,
which are the most common color, are really great for people starting new collections
because they're so shiny and pretty.
$20 for the peacock and grape.
Just really wonderful prices.
This is Griswold.
This is the small mark.
They used the small work starting in the late 1930s.
So this is the later generation.
$50 is about the going price.
Cast iron is very popular in this part of the country.
Speaking of carnival glass for you, ashtray collectors.
These were done around 1950 and they're really fun.
The center is to hold a matchbook.
This one has the Dutch couple.
This one is a golfer.
He's carrying his clubs and then you see the golf thing around the edges.
That's really fun.
Polo player, but it still has the golfer on the edge.
And then this one also a Dutch scene.
One thing that's really fun about being in the antique and vintage business is meeting
new people and this is Tyler and he and his twin brother own...
The Allen Antique Barn.
Which is the biggest one in this part of Michigan and maybe the whole state from what I hear.
Oh yeah.
Oh, I'm very excited to go see it.
So here's how my space laid out.
I sold some really cool specialized pieces of glass.
The Fenton lime green parlor lamp.
Those sell for over $600 now.
And it matches the Costa Boda.
Now the Costa Boda does not glow under a black light,
but the face vases and chalices are really, really collectible.
This is maybe the nicest piece of glass here.
It's unusual.
It is Le Gras.
There is the signature down on the bottom.
All hand decorated from about 1910 France.
It's a beautiful piece.
A very specific collector.
A high-end thing.
It's wonderful.
I have a bourdon nest as well.
This is Westmoreland with the satin finish.
And then over here I like to bring some things to this show that are different
because a lot of people bring glass and glass is great,
but we get other collectors too.
So I've got compasses and carved wood figures from Italy.
Now speaking of Fenton, that's unusual.
This is Louise Piper.
I've never had a Louise Piper piece.
She of course was the decorator who taught most of the other decorators.
She started the decorating at Fenton.
This is a silver deposit.
It's hard to find in good condition,
and you can see this one is a little bit disturbed.
October of 1980 is the date on that.
And Heidi said very few of these were decorated by her.
We are here with Deej from Digging with Deej,
and she has a YouTube channel and is really knowledgeable about bottles in particular.
I'm a bottle collector.
How'd you get interested in that?
I started as a kid digging in my grandfather's third generation farm dump.
Oh cool.
So my favorite is quack medicines.
Oh, those are so great if you can find them.
Oh yeah, for sure.
What's the oldest thing that you've found?
In a dump, a token without a metal detector.
Go figure.
Wow, I can't wait to check out your channel,
and we're going to have some fun in a few days,
but we'll keep that a secret until we get there.
Okay, sounds good to me.
And here we've got some doll furniture.
I sold toys here last year, so I brought what I had this time,
including these Howdy Doody puppets.
You've got Howdy Doody on the left,
and various other characters from the show from about 1950.
I have an Eagle Scout medal, and a bunch of Korean War medals,
and World War II.
This one says Bronze Star, but it's not.
A little anvil.
We get a lot of guys who come through here,
and I want them to see things, if they're not into glass,
that they might be interested in, and I always end up selling some.
I showed guys pocket knives.
I sold a bunch of coins today.
I realize women collect those things too.
I sold some women a pocket knife as well.
The Nile Fez.
Might have to wear that one later.
More pocket knives.
More compasses.
More badges.
Just lots of interesting little things,
because not everybody has room for swung vases.
A really cool Wunberg Studio sack vase.
And this vase, signed by Eichholt.
And this art glass vase, the Orient and Flume Paperweight.
Winshulers is right up the road in Marshall,
and that is a famous restaurant that is still there.
The Battle Creek Sanitarium.
My family were involved with that.
And a bunch of Beatrix Potter collectibles,
and I did sell several of these today,
along with this cool bank where you would save for a home.
More Beatrix Potter.
A hurricane lamp with what we call, euphemistically,
Mary Gregory style painting.
One great thing about doing Teak Saga is hanging out with your friends,
and we have Miss Lena Rae,
Miss Connie Jean,
and Miss Carol Suess,
Betsy, Betsy Johnson.
Betsy Johnson.
Look at what she's wearing.
Look at that hat, and that coat.
You have really gotten into the jewelry,
just such a deep dive.
You have become very knowledgeable in a very short period of time.
Thanks to you.
You're a good teacher.
Well, you're welcome.
But it wasn't just me,
because you know stuff I don't know now,
and that's what I love about this,
is that I teach you enough to get interested,
and then you guys do the deep dives,
and you teach me back.
And that's how this world works,
and I just love it.
And part of the fun is the free appraisal fair that I give on Sundays at Teak Stock,
and you can see past episodes of that on the Antique Nomad Live as well.
I hope that gave you at least a little taste of this very special event
that is really unlike anything else I do all year long.
I'm really looking forward to seeing some of you there in Marshall, Michigan,
and for the rest of you,
we will have more video and show all the fun.
