I quite like the look of the dancing lady to the left of the clock. No idea wether it’s of any quality or value from here 😂. But it caught my eye. 👍😎. The box at the end out of those you chose is the one I would pick.
Since I have a teapot almost identical to the one in the video, I selected it, as it's one of my favorite items in my home. The bamboo brush pot would be my second choice.
The first image was that bronze of a dancer on a stone base. Spidey senses activate! DINGDINGDING THATONE! Unless it was reproduction I'm surprised it was bypassed. The clock doesn't make me scream. Brush pot - nice enough but kind of blah. 02:40 That little blue and white dish..dingding. Minor bells. Shipwreck porcelain? Bet someone bagged it before the day was out. I've never been fond of famille rose - grew up with some and never liked it. The rosewood dressing set was nice, but yesterday's antique. I don't want a box unless I can put stuff in it, and this one came full. Of the ones David picked, none of the above. None of them sang to me or even whistled. The dancer however was pretty well jumping up and down and using a bullhorn.
I love the vanity box. Just gorgeous - and complete. I paid a fortune for a gentleman's travelling vanity case - it is as big as a suitcase and filled with delicious items. I am not sure why people are rejecting 'yesterday's antiques' in favour of iffy mcm (50's-70's) junk.
While I like the box, I have no use for such a thing. I agree the teapot is nice, but it just becomes a dust collector. The clock looks ugly to me. Perhaps it is too simple. So, I choose the bamboo paint pot. Great storage piece. I figured David would take the teapot.
Hello David, can you tell me anything about the pair of vases to the left of the long case clock? They are on the table beside what looks like an art deco statue and a tea kettle. Although they are in the background, they caught my eye. This video presents us with a wonderful format for learning about old and beautiful objects. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
I appreciate the box and seem to be drawn to objects like that but I think the teapot or the brush holder are more practical to display. Thank you for the videos. I'm really enjoying them. Mahalo.
David,owning and restoring a grand Victorian home I am filling it up with all things Victorian. The clock just doesn’t work for me, it looks to understated and the applied moldings make it look cheap. The ladies dresser box although very nice would be hidden away in a bedroom and never seen. It comes down to a toss up between the brush pot and the tea pot. If spotted at the start of the day (when flush with jingle in my pocket) the tea pot would be the choice. If spotted at the end of the day there would be less jingle in the pocket I would consider the brush pot.
there's far more money to be made from stuff in charity shops than at big antiques fairs like these... too many canny lovejoys stalled-out to find any real bargains... the part-teapot appealed most to me but without research and a close-up examination of it i've no idea whether that price is good bad or indifferent...the materials used in the pot might also be hazardous to health... so maybe you wouldn't even get a half-decent cuppa out of it... interesting video... thanks for posting.
@@DavidHarperAntiques yes but you can find deals sometimes. I’ve collected early antiques since I was 18 and I’m 71 and I’ve found some great deals in my life on early pieces.
I wanted the figure left of the clock 🤣
Ooo the ladies vanity box is my favorite.
No contest. The English box. What a treasure. fantastic
Agreed David so charming. No contest.
The grandmother clock for me 😊
Hi David, I just recently found you .I'd have taken the teapot ,definitely!
Welcome Valerie…teapot is a good choice!
I rather like the table that the teapot is displayed on. Out of the choices, the clock.
How exciting, a good game. I'd get the bamboo.
Agreed, good game. 👍
Either the teapot or the clock, I like them both.
Love the video format David. More please!

Teapot
I love the box. It looks like it has everything.
Dear David Harper, the Teapot was nice and I enjoy these shopping over your shoulder videos! Bye have fun today!
I liked the box - but I also thought that the teapot was beautiful.
I've got too much stuff to want any of these - but for display & decorative quality the teapot beats the rest
I would have taken home the bamboo brush holder because I like to paint.
Chinese Tea Pot cheaper than the English box also it had no chips for it's age and been used .

In a 100 or so years who will appreciate the mcm stuff? But the proper antiques will always be things of beauty and craftsmanship.
I agree with others who wanted the figurine to the left of the clock. It was lovely. I also liked the box, but wouldn’t have a use for it.
I would've picked the ladies vanity box cos it was the most intricate of the items.

The brass ones? I saw those two. Looked nice.
I love the clock but it wouldn’t fit in our home, I like the teapot but the box! So complete and beautiful.
I liked the brush pot.

all comes down to haggle price liked them all
Should the teapot handle be bamboo? That put me off it. I would choose the bamboo for myself. The games are always great! Cheers!
Tea pot for me. I saw the same one here but it was not for sell . 😊
I loved that tea pot!
Brushpot was Japanese.. Peter combs will be fuming lol 😆 if he watches this.. Grandmother Clock ⌚ the best
I can sense his fuming from across the Atlantic!…and you are right, my mistake!

there's far more
money to be made
from stuff in

at big antiques
fairs like these...
too many
canny lovejoys
stalled-out to find
any real bargains...
the part-teapot
appealed most to me
but without research
and a close-up
examination of it
i've no idea
whether that price
is good bad or
indifferent...the
materials used in the
pot might also be
hazardous to health...
so maybe you
wouldn't even get
a half-decent cuppa
out of it...
interesting video...
thanks for posting.
I would definitely take the grandmother clock home. £95 is no money really.
I would prefer early 19th or 18th century for a grandfather clock. Of course that will never happen.
They’re very inexpensive to buy! I have a couple of videos here showing how inexpensive they are!
@@DavidHarperAntiques yes but you can find deals sometimes. I’ve collected early antiques since I was 18 and I’m 71 and I’ve found some great deals in my life on early pieces.
None......,,and the Chinese teapot , if in excellent condition is not worth that money, £20 to £40 at most.
Agree, it was made to fit into a rattan basket that also had a space for two teacups! We call it a picnic set, very common .
