The 梅 Enamel pendant is not cherry blossom, it's Prunus mume, “梅” is asian plum or apricot. They blossom in late winter before the spring, so we regard them as Three Friends of Winter, stand for character of resilience.
Wow, thank you so much!! I just learned something new! Three Friends of Winter sounds so interesting, I'm going to research that a little more. Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel!! 😊💖
The black 1950’s sterling earrings which you thought was not glass or crystal is most likely Bakelite instead. Bakelite was at the height of fashion in the 1950’s which makes them highly collectible and valuable. Cheers
At 4:45, that piece of jewelry from India, that long piece goes across your face to your nose. Some women have their nose pierced just to wear this kind of jewelry, but now days they mostly just hook it onto their nose somehow. It is very common in India, and very beautiful with their black hair and head coverings.
They can also go over the ear and on to the back of the ear to help offset the weight if the earring on the ear. If not, they go toward the back and pinned to the hair.
Sometimes, once in awhile you can fund some nice stuff in the thrift stores now. People used to donate really good stuff to the thrift stores but then the thrift stores started jacking up the prices a lot. Many people complain to me about the high prices at thrift stores now. People stopped donating and now give their stuff away for free to someone in need. They all say they would donate but the thrift stores turn around and jack up the prices. I can purchase brand new qood quality natural fiber clothing for close to the same price the thrift stores are charging for polyester and vinyl junk. The thrift stores quite often keep the good items and auction them off too.
The prices are getting a little out of hand! Especially the chain locations. There are still a few locally owned that have good prices for good stuff, like the old days. Thanks so much for watching my video! 💖
@@AliBorealis I was told just the other day by one of the higher-ups in management at the Goodwill (upper management just happened to be visiting the store I was in that day) that they are really tired of resellers coming in and hoarding the nicer items so they had to jack the price up to help deter them. She said, unfortunately the every day person who is not reselling is paying the cost of that. They originally opened their stores so that every day people could come in and shop and that’s what they really want to get back to. That’s just what was explained to me when I was complaining about there hardly ever being anything good anymore on the shelves, and everything that is there is high priced and not worth the price they were asking. To be fair, before a lot of people started to resell I found many beautiful and highly valuable items at Goodwill which I will always cherish, so I sort of understand where they’re coming from. These days it’s a rarity to find anything like that if you aren’t a reseller. The flippers and resellers in our area are cutthroat and they come in five or six times a day as fresh cards come out. Some are even rude as they muscle in with lightening speed grabbing what they can. It is really kind of brutal. That’s in Southeastern Ontario. Oh, and the difference in money you were talking about at the first of your video is called an exchange rate, and it fluctuates all the time. Sometimes the rate is even, sometimes it’s higher and sometimes it’s lower. It’s been quite a bit lower on the Canadian side for a while now. Just FYI.
I’m from Vancouver and buy vintage jewelry. Never knew about thrifting like this. I’m new to your channel and this category of videos. Your videos are my fav. Your excitement and positivity makes each piece extra fun! ❤🎉😊
Hi The Indian jewelry piece that you picked at 4:40 is a ear-ring, if the other end had a hook then it would be hooked in the hair. If you google "jhumka earring with hair chain" you will see how it is worn. These are normally worn on special events, weddings, festivals, etc. But in this one, the chain just goes over the ear, the loop at the end goes behind the ear. "jhumka earring with ear chain" supports the weight of the earring so the ear holes dont get stressed. The jade necklace set at 07:00 is an Indian "chokar necklace". The slider rope instead of a metal chain is a very Indian jewelry design. The little star at 24:02 is used like a charm that young kids attach to the zipper of a bag.
Great finds in there! The small "keychain" with the black cord is a cell phone charm, which can be looped pulled through on a purse strap loop, wallet pull, etc.
This is such a wonderful idea. I miss hearing her voice and her inspiring words. I’ve been working on my projects and am thinking of her often. She taught me so much about beading. Keep her memory going. I’ll be watching. 🙏🏻
I just discovered your channel. Amazing jewelry haul! I live in the Toronto area and regularly buy jewelry jars from my local SA. I love the treasure hunt. Just FYI, the earring at 32:33 marked Butler is from a company called Fifth Avenue Collection. The company was founded in Canada and their head office is based out of Moose Jaw, SK, but their collections are sold around the world. I find their pieces quite regularly. Their necklaces usually have a hang tag with the logo FAC, but bracelets and earrings are marked Butler (after the family that founded the company). They have been in operation for almost 30 years. Their sales model is similar to Avon or Sarah Coventry where they recruit representatives for home parties etc. Great channel, I look forward to learning more from you!
Thank you! Love the information on Butler! I've learned so much about jewelry made in Canada from making this video! I had no idea Sherman jewelry is a Canadian company. Don't know if you watched my Estate Jewelry Unboxing video? A viewer from Canada sent that box to me and it's full of Canadian treasures! I'm posting part 2 of that one later this evening. Here's part 1. I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💞 th-cam.com/video/kiQtG6gHTeg/w-d-xo.html

The AB peacocks At the beginning are absolutely gorgeous! I may have to hit you up on those babies lol. The two-tone necklace with the earrings and rhinestones and definitely the Jade one they look like they could be from the Raj collection, pieces from India .I believe at one time they sold on HSN and the other jewelry channel.Beautiful beautiful pieces so far I'm only at18 minutes lol Can't wait to check out the rest
Are you talking about the pink earrings? I still have them if you'd like them. Just send an email and I'll give you a good price. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
18:10 your "little guys" are called Inukshuk. They were originally Inuit (Eskimo) stone markers and since the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, have become very popular throughout Canada.
I'm just seeing this for the first time, how much for all the hair dressing, hair combs and barrettes, it's been about 5 months ago. And what kind do you have that I could buy reasonably priced, I have long hair and love hair accessories, that are old and and good shape, thanks, best regards, Teressa
Hi! I sold all of my hair accessories to someone a few months ago. This box had a lot of them, and I do come across them from time to time. Maybe check back in a few months when I have more built up again. Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊 💞
There is a huge Indian population in Canada. I love their jewelry, it is not subtle but usually very ornate and well made. The nice thing is you can just google asian indian jewelry or wedding jewelry and get an idea of what it costs. You can look it up, but I seem to remember that if one earring had a really long chain or beaded chain on it, one end might have gone across the face to attach to a nose ring or stud, that part might be missing.
The Indian jewelry is all so very pretty! Googling it more, it does seem that attaches to a nose ring, how amazing! Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊
The decorative string that attaches to the nosering is clipped on hair. We typically keep the ear and nose jewellery separate. The strings are for support as well as to add some details. I guess we Indians are just maximalists.
My Grandmother once bought a watch from a thrift store in Roseburg, Or. turned out to be a 1933 18k white gold art deco watch with small diamonds & sapphires. It was beautiful and the movements inside, Behind the face had small rubies .. my dumb 18 year old arse took it to a jeweler so that I can wear every day.. he took everything out of the back of the face of the watch and put in a battery one and kept what was inside. I’ll never forgive myself for that! I was so naïve!
I have loads of the gold heart pins from variety club I've collected over the years, they are sold in the UK charity shop The British Heart Foundation ❤
Oh my! I had no idea I was saying that! I was mashing up my 3/4 fractions with my 0.75 decimal points! I appreciate you pointing it out, and thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💖
that earring with the long double strand of garnets hooks onto your nose, I believe. That jade necklace and earring set is beautiful. all from India, I would say.
The heart saying “the variety club” a new design is made every year to support charity and are only available from Tesco supermarkets, here in the UK 🇬🇧 they cost £1 each, but the older they are the more value they have, I have the whole set up until 2006. So missing some but you can go online and buy the ones your missing.
I think it's spinel, but it's almost in the topaz range, so could be that. Sometimes the testers are a little off. Could you e-mail me for a price on it? Thanks! AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
Hi!why,wouldnt you just replace the stone missing in the sparkly earrings on the card? You can save the stones for crafting,why the earrings are brand new?im sure someone would by them for $3.00 or more or around the christmas season later on.
Thank you for the idea! I'd love to pass it on to someone who likes doing stone replacement. I've tried and I just make a mess out of the glue!! 😂 Thank you for watching my channel!
My guess is that the long red beaded dangle on the Indian earring actually hooks onto a nose ring. If you google Indian earing/nose ring, you'll see lots of examples popping up.
No, actually we hook it to our hair with a hairpin. It is too short to hook to ur nose pin & nose pins chain are only hooked on the left side of our nose not from both sides... We aren't horses
Thank you! It was a good one! I actually have the jade set in an auction right now if you’re interested in buying it. I appreciate you watching! 💖😊 ctbids.com/estate-sale/24710/item/2655617/Jade-Necklace-Earrings-Set
The earrings that match the Indian necklace and has like seedbeeds on it, might be that you remove the back of the stud earring, place the end of the seeded piece over the stud, then replace the earring back.😊
The comment that struck me was "It almost looks like lava rock, which you're not supposed to be having..." Can my tiny brain ask why? I'm seriously curious if anyone knows.
Many times, with the larger earrings (those single ones) I will make them into a brooch, add them to a hair comb or decorative clip. I hate having to send them to Goodwill. Kust seems like a waste of someones gifts or talents!❤
24:01 The keychain like item with the charm says best is actually a cellphone charm used on those old models of cellphones with a hole to attach it which almost can not be found on today’s new smartphones. The pink ribbon with zipper edge and letter J is from a Juicy Couture perfume bottle I believe.
Please check gold tome necklace with rhinestones with dangle ..may be gold and diamonds ..markings for this gold are hard to find and written differantly
Hi I’m new to your channel. I love vintage jewellery here in Australia. I was just wondering machine you use to check the stones please Thanks great channel very informative
I do believe there is another jewelry maker with the same initials as Sara Coventry and also marks their jewelry SC. You have to be familiar with Sara Coventry particular mark to be aware of the difference.
That earring that you're talk about has that long piece to it you put that on the back of the earring before you put the class on that's just a different style I remember that from the 80s
I think you just went through an indian grandmas life time of jewelry 😏 also the piece with a star and best charm is not a keychain but a cellphone charm.
Your $40.00 bag paid for itself after the first 5 pieces! great canadian bag,you lucked out big time w new items an very wearable most of it this far!Enjoy 😊
Would love to see you purchase from Palm Beach Florida. Lots of retirees live there. I follow a thrifter on Instagram who shops home goods and the Antiques she finds are incredible.
Ooouu, I was on a health care worker contract in Miami for 4 months, and regularly thrifted all the way up to Palm Beach. They had the most fantastic jewelry that came through those stores on a daily basis!! I'll need to get back there!! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
My mom sold Sarah Coventry when I was in high school. Over the past 5 plus years I started collecting it as so much of it was found in my jewelry jars/bags. Internationally, SC designed and sold completely different pieces, with Canada having its own line. Only best selling pieces of SC/USA were sold internationally. I have all 3 books on SC and one on Emmons. It was in the Emmons book that I learned about their Canadian line of jewelry. Also, the first Indian earring you showed that had a string of beads on it with a loop- connects to a nose ring. Nice finds.
I have an old ring it belonged to my grandmother only fits my pinky but it looks like an engagement ring Its all silver and i been wearing it for years and has not tarnished which means its white gold Im afraid to get it apraised because you have to watch who you go to There must be another way i can get it valued with trustworthy people
Hi Theresa, I do still have the sterling Elvis pendant from this box! Please email me and I'll give you a good price on it. Thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💖 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
What part did you think was a rip off? I've sold quite a bit out of the bag so far, and it keeps on giving! The gold pieces were the most valuable. I appreciate you watching my video! :)
My dad was at a garage sale elderly lady had a bag of all different pieces from insides of watches. My dad asked what you asking she said oh give me a $1.00 he said sure. He took it home thought these pieces are gold sure enough it was all gold he sold it to a local jewelry store got $800.00 for these watch pieces. He said no wonder her husband was saving them he knew it was gold but his wife didn’t. So my dad always had his eyes looking.
Hi, this first thing would be to use a magnet, if it sticks to the magnet, it's not gold or sterling. Then you can get a simple acid testing kit (I linked it below). Never put the acid on the pieces, always do a light rubbing on a place that isn't noticeable. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖 amzn.to/3UEoZM8
In the UK, charity goods have a shelf life and shops are under pressure to turn stock over, so maybe some of the sets you pick up just didn’t sell quickly enough?

The thing with best on it is a phone charm from the late 2010s probably was originally a best friend thing so each person had one.
Zipper necklace is from the 1980's... I had one as a young girl... my mom actually got us matching ones... not real gold or silver but totally fun!!
The "best" dangle used to go on a cell phone. They used to have a place to put stuff like that... Think "Paris Hilton" years.

I love vintage jewellery here in Australia.
I was just wondering machine you use to check the stones please
Thanks great channel very informative
Your last green dangle earrings match your green necklace,same color an round,but necklace is oblong if i remember correctly.😊
I’ll look at that again, thanks!!
According to my girlfriend, the pink zipper ribbon with the rhinestones Letter J comes from a bottle of Juicy Couture perfume..
I do believe there is another jewelry maker with the same initials as Sara Coventry and also marks their jewelry SC. You have to be familiar with Sara Coventry particular mark to be aware of the difference.
Pretty wedding set
Very beautiful! Thanks for watching! :)
Vintage bracelet is beautiful
Thank you, it is!! 😊💖
Also single earrings you can cut them down and turn them into pendants
That one thing you said you didn't know what to do with you put it on a zipper and it gives your zipper bling
That earring that you're talk about has that long piece to it you put that on the back of the earring before you put the class on that's just a different style I remember that from the 80s
I've always thought old earrings with old beads orange Sterling or gold was still worth something cuz the beads are old too
I have an old necklace and it has old beads in between the pearls and I had it checked it is real pearl s
Or brooches
I think you just went through an indian grandmas life time of jewelry 😏 also the piece with a star and best charm is not a keychain but a cellphone charm.
Hello, I'm Mari. Are you sure their runestone s?
Hi, I'm a new subscriber, your videos are very interesting. I really like that miniature table set❤
It hooks to a nose ring
The extra part of the dangle earring some of them connect to the hair some how.
Interesting! I'll have to google some image to see what that looks like. Thanks so much!
The purple round amythist 925earring is avon or coro necklace set.
Thank you!!
That Indian earring with the loop attaches to a nose hoop.

The variety club heart is a charity broach from Uk, very cheap sold for £1
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 💖
I wonder if the earring with the beads, if the longer part reaches the nose? Perhaps that was how it was worn?😊
Your $40.00 bag paid for itself after the first 5 pieces! great canadian bag,you lucked out big time w new items an very wearable most of it this far!Enjoy 😊
Yes, it totally did!! I just sold my first item from it and I'm 5 cents ahead so far! This was a very good bag. I appreciate you watching! :)
Someone used make jewelry. I recognize some of the components.
The roping on the earrings one goes in the front the earring and then the other one goes behind your on the stem and then you put the back on.
The earring that hooks to something actually hooks to the nose or nose ring which can be a hoop.
Yeah I think they didn’t even look through the bag before handing it over. Love the Little painted Rock broach. That is so cute!
Right?! Hardly looked through it, and definitely not with a magnifying glass to see the gold and sterling marks!!
Would love to see you purchase from Palm Beach Florida. Lots of retirees live there. I follow a thrifter on Instagram who shops home goods and the Antiques she finds are incredible.
Ooouu, I was on a health care worker contract in Miami for 4 months, and regularly thrifted all the way up to Palm Beach. They had the most fantastic jewelry that came through those stores on a daily basis!! I'll need to get back there!! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖

Thank you!! 😊💖

My mom sold Sarah Coventry when I was in high school. Over the past 5 plus years I started collecting it as so much of it was found in my jewelry jars/bags. Internationally, SC designed and sold completely different pieces, with Canada having its own line. Only best selling pieces of SC/USA were sold internationally. I have all 3 books on SC and one on Emmons. It was in the Emmons book that I learned about their Canadian line of jewelry.
Also, the first Indian earring you showed that had a string of beads on it with a loop- connects to a nose ring.
Nice finds.
Wow, I didn't know all that about Sarah Coventry. I find so much of it in the boxes. Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
Actually it goes over the ear and back on the earring. It’s simply called Sahara meaning support. It’s common to wear such support with big earrings.
cool unboxing
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 💖
At 24:10 in the video would that have went on a wine bottle or wine glass maybe?

I have an old ring it belonged to my grandmother only fits my pinky but it looks like an engagement ring Its all silver and i been wearing it for years and has not tarnished which means its white gold Im afraid to get it apraised because you have to watch who you go to There must be another way i can get it valued with trustworthy people

Would those natural dark stones be jet? Is jet a gemstone?
What a ripoff!
What part did you think was a rip off? I've sold quite a bit out of the bag so far, and it keeps on giving! The gold pieces were the most valuable. I appreciate you watching my video! :)
Blue heart earring is 80s I had that pair. Maybe 1928? I don't remember the brand.
80s fashions were so great! Thanks so much for watching my channel. 😊💖
My dad was at a garage sale elderly lady had a bag of all different pieces from insides of watches. My dad asked what you asking she said oh give me a $1.00 he said sure. He took it home thought these pieces are gold sure enough it was all gold he sold it to a local jewelry store got $800.00 for these watch pieces. He said no wonder her husband was saving them he knew it was gold but his wife didn’t. So my dad always had his eyes looking.
Wow!! You're dad knew what he was looking at, good for him! Thanks so much for sharing, I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
It would have been nice if he had gone back & at least gave the woman half of what he got. After all he was only out a dollar.
22:51 "Best," looks like a handbag strap decoration to me, but I could be wrong.

How do we procur an item. I would love the clear lucite bracelet as it is an 8 and they are usually much smaller. Thank you.
Hi! Please email me and Ill give you a good price! Thanks so much for watching my channel! :) AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
The clasp has a spring inside and causes it to magnatise.
What tools I need to check the jewelry for real gold ect. We’re can i get th equipment needed?
Hi, this first thing would be to use a magnet, if it sticks to the magnet, it's not gold or sterling. Then you can get a simple acid testing kit (I linked it below). Never put the acid on the pieces, always do a light rubbing on a place that isn't noticeable. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖 amzn.to/3UEoZM8
In the UK, charity goods have a shelf life and shops are under pressure to turn stock over, so maybe some of the sets you pick up just didn’t sell quickly enough?
Do you still have the bracelet shown at 53:19?
How can I buy the pink crystal earrings? At 3:24 minutes?
Hi, I believe I still have those! Could you email me and I'll give you a good price on them, thanks! AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
