Thank you, David, for the wonderful video. I noticed some beads behind the jug that you selected. Could they be amber? How can one tell genuine amber from costume jewelry?
Please continue to share your expertise with us. We love your videos here in America.
Thank you for watching Ellen. There’s a few ways to tell if amber is real, but seeing if the beads float in salty water is a good one. If they sink, they’re fake, if they float, they’re real. I’ll do a video as and when I buy some amber! David
Anglo-Indian carved tilt top table! Gorgeous
I have a Lea Stein Ric the dog. I love her brooches!
Wow! Quite interesting, thanks.
More of these please, David as its very refreshing to see Sir.
Cheers Anthony
2 minutes 17 seconds, I see a little flyer on the door with your good self on it
another great video david, its a pleasure to watch you and listen to your beautiful story about you and your dad, cant wait for the next one.
Thanks so much Neale, that’s really appreciated, David
Oh David...especially liked the story of you & your Dad and about Barnard Castle. You fill my day with JOY and I'm so appreciative. Your #1 FAN!!!
Thanks so much for watching and your lovely comments Kathryn. Best wishes and lots more videos to come! David
I spotted a lovely drop shaped cranberry glass vase.....
Mr Harper ;
Ah yes. Jewellery. Hard to sell online....
Me ; No no ! I want some !!!
Mr Harper ; Nice victoriana jug !
Me ; The amber necklace !!!
😲😉😄 💎💎💎💎💎💎
Good spotting...take a look at my new antiques hunting in York!
The jug was great buy, David. You hear people in the trade saying 'don't touch Doulton, keep away from royal commemoratives.' What they miss is the sweet spot where the two meet in great design, form and condition. Love the Dewar whisky jugs they produced too.
Cheers David I shall go to Barnards Castle soon
Those cases looked like heaven! The similar shops in America are getting so very modern, it was beautiful to watch you shopping! Thank you for posting this.
Thank you Thomas. Cheers, David
Dear David Harper,
You rock for making cool videos about UK antiques. Thank you
Thanks Ski, more coming!
Barnard Castle, on of the Sunday Times best places to live in uk. Stunning town. Bowes museum is lovely as are the riverside walls. Great ambassador for BC David!
Got to be true, it really is a great place to live!
Lovely vid with all the clear explanations ... interesting ... good quality sells ... Barnard Castle looks lovely .... thanks Sally
Thanks Sally...Barnard Castle is always worth a visit
great interesting and informative video. Barnard Castle looks like a place that I would like to visit someday. More please of these buying and selling antiques videos please.
Thank you and you should visit, it’s great. More coming soon!
05:05 That amber necklace might have been worth a gander, right behind your Queen Victoria Doulton jug. (pack the bejeebers out of that - foamy bits and double box it - if shipping it.) The amber is very light weight, easy to ship, with a global audience. Depending on price, naturally. That cabinet right behind Dale looks like it holds all sorts of goodness too. The silver oddments can sell for a lot more than silver weight, and again easy to ship. 11:05 Would I buy him? Heck yes! Dog lovers plus Leah Stein lovers = nab it.
❤
Beautifull commemorative jug in suberp condition it has to make money .
Scotty dogs sell well! I would have bought it in a heartbeat for resale. So glad you purchased it! Stein’s foxes proved popular too. The Doulton jug I was surprised was as inexpensive as it was, given the condition and the work that went into it. So loved your story surrounding the coin you wear, and how it connects to your passion for Queen Victoria and that era-touched my heart actually, imagining that wee seven year old, pleading for it…. David, thank you again for your gift of these shows!
Question, do you sell your artwork and if so, do you have an online store? Also, a link to your eBay store? Thanks!
Any early Englishsilver item with a hinge. Boxes cigar cases ect. The craftsmanship is amazing and they are silver. My collections is a great talking point with friends.
I’ll keep my eyes peeled. Cheers Tim
Wonderful..!!!!!
Cheers Jim
I agree with a previous poster; the shops in the US are becoming pitiful and are overrun with everyday common garbage. I actually have much better luck at estate sales and auctions. Thanks again for a great video!
Thank you Mark
ey up, you almost filmed my old school, just next door to the Bowes Museum. I never really appreciated that silver swan automata as a kid, they used to start it up twice a day... still remember that jingle it played.
Almost, but it would have brought back too many upsetting memories of paying school fees for my daughter there! Cheers for watching D
Great video. Must get up to Barnard Castle one of these days and have a nosey round. Looks a lovely place. Hopefully the gin & tonics are going down well 👍
Watching the current Antiques Road Trip with you and Arusha. Looking a bit wicky for you at the moment Mr H, but all to play for in the last leg tonight. Looks fun to do though. How long does it actually take to film ?
Thanks for watching Pale. Each road trip takes exactly what you see on the show - two days buying and one day in an auction, but not one after another. Often a week or two between each trip. Cheers, David
@@DavidHarperAntiquesTV Interesting. You and your “Antiques Road Trip/Bargain Hunt/Put your money where your mouth is” colleagues are very much household names these days and have helped to bring the world of antiques to a wider audience. I always found the Antiques Roadshow a little stuffy and high brow for my personal taste. Certainly got my interest going right from the early days of Bargain Hunt with the Golden Wonder himself - Mr Dickinson. It’s great to learn about Antiques but with a little humour and entertainment thrown in. Cheers for that 👍
Good fun David, your jug is cheap compared to others on eBay
Cheers Andy
I live in Barnard Castle
Did you see anything in the video that you would have bought?
Just about everything in the shop but one thing I would love to have was the German Shepherd Dog figurine. In the quick look I had of it, it looked finely done.
And that is one of the things I admire about British pottery, nothing can hold a candle to it or silver either.
I thoust the Indian table was a steal. I can't get over how inexpensive antiques in England are compared to the US.
Hi David, quick question for you, I am looking at a lot at my local auction house and in the description, it reads 'warranted until noon Tuesday following the sale' what does his mean? it's a lamp. kind regards, George.
Sounds like a ‘tongue in cheek’ comment to me George! Best give them a call D
Do you sell on a website? Or eBay etc brilliant videos David
cheers Phillip. on my website david-harper.uk D
Hello David I live in be bad castle and am wondering if you enjoyed the town
I live there too!
Curious what it sells for
If you buy it, you’ll know!! Cheers, David
Hi
You are purchasing handicraft jewellery
Do you think Brits should be proud of Victorian era and the impact it had on its colonies?
overall, yes I’d say so
Not criticising you but you stated you would sell that jug for say £100-110 online. At £65 cost price, then take off your fees, postage, tax, you're not going to make a penny on it? Seems a bit of a waste of time to me purchasing that.
Good points, but it’s on my website at £95 plus delivery and of course I didn’t pay £65 for it, so there’s a working margin there. Obviously that needs to be scaled up to make decent money. Higher value items or lots of sales at this level. Thanks for watching. Cheers, David
@@DavidHarperAntiquesTV Appreciate the reply.
@@DavidHarperAntiquesTV David, can I message you regarding a chinese censer I recently purchased?
@@Lavici you can - details on my website david-harper.uk
So ebay is full of traders selling knock up stuff then 😐
why do you say that?
@@DavidHarperAntiquesTV
You in the video bought a thing nearly doubled the price (in your own words) and put it on eBay, that's a good thing to do, giving people an insight into the goings-on, I just thought eBay was mostly people selling off their old stuff until I've seen your video 😐👍
Very enjoyable and informative video, thanks David. I haven't been to Barnard Castle for a while, I must visit soon (I'm in Sunderland so not that far away).
It’s waiting for you Denise!
