#MUDLARKING
Whenever I see Kate's hair blowing in the wind on a deserted beach, I think of Wuthering Heights. She's a natural gothic heroine.
And her hair color! I'm so jealous. 😊
me too and i love the way they both dress...
If I may be permitted to say so, of mythical status she is.
I agree!!
Me too❤️
I believe the little kneeling soldier is holding a Bazooka gun. It's a shoulder mounted rocket launcher.
That piece of wire you found . You can turn it into a bow and arrow for Cupid. Just a thought. Love you guys show. Be safe happy and healthy.❤
A mother in law button 🤣 awesome.
🙂🐿🌈❤️
I love that you capture all those bits lying about. I stop the action quite often to look longer. Have you ever thought to use bone toothbrush handles to make doll furniture? Just a thought!
Love them mother in law buttons 😂
15 .625 is gold, it was the legal standard up until the 30s. it would have been alloyed with other metals to make the piece stronger, and suitable for jewellery pieces, etc. It was known to be alloyed with silver for this reason…still classed as gold though 😊
I hope Kate and Fleur see your comment
please graft a frozen Charlette's head onto that cat 🤣
I keep seeing things that I want you to pick up, I yell, you can't hear me. I saw a button, a shoe, a wee tile, and a glass hook. Listen to me! Lol! I love the mushroom!
Last week Nicola White lifted an item of interest, beneath was a beautiful silver coin! She never saw it! (talk about yelling thru the screen)!😊
I could watch this all day....
My great grandfather, an immigrant from Scotland, at the age of 28 was living in New York City and decided to join the the Army to fight for the north during the Civil War. He fought with the 79th Highlanders. We have a photo of him in his full dress uniform, kilt and all. He is somewhat a hero to our family. He was wounded and captured by the Confederate army. His uniform was stolen I think the day after he was captured and he had to wear a blanket until he was released. Those little lead soldiers remind me of him. Thanks for showing them and all of your other amazing finds!
Yay!! Sunny!!
Just turn him around, looking out a window. Perfect for that.
You both are so beautiful and I love you’re voices and pleasant accent. You both are very intelligent and know a lot about antiques and precious metals. Keep it coming ladies.
Hello Ladies of Adventure. I am in Oklahoma and have so often pined for a Frozen Charlotte. I was pretty sure I would never even see a real one. I'm 64 and had never seen one or even heard of them until introduced to them by you. I was at my favorite Antique Shop last week looking for vintage Valentine Cards. I bent down to look at a beautiful glass and wood cabinet that has been sold. Inside were 3 figures. I couldn't believe my eyes. The most Beautiful, complete Frozen Charlotte. I figured she wasn't for sale as she did not have a price on here in. I bought her for $3.00. Unbelievable! She actually lives with me now, and I couldn't be more thrilled. Thanks for the education about her and all her siblings. Love, Barb
Truly a good sort of adventure.
Congratulations.
Maybe you can make a mould of the one 's face and pour a resin face to glue on
The little soldier is holding a bazooka it’s an old weapon from the world war if I’m not mistaken you can display the cat from the back like it’s looking out the window!😊
Kate, you are so beautiful. Pretty hair and piercing blue eyes! Prettiest mudlarker 😊
Totally agree
Always love treasure beach. The acorn 🦄❤️
What we’d call an outfit or ensemble was once called a costume. I imagine Edwardian families in their bathing costumes dropping all sorts of future treasures on the beach.
And also!! SUNNYCAT!! We haven’t seen him on this channel in a long time. I know he can be a drooly clumsy nuisance, but he clearly adores you both.
Kate, it's the Cheshire Cat! It's slowly materializing. Next time it will have the face, too.
Cute
Costumes-- advert for Bathing Costumes! My best guess.
GREAT finds this week! Thanks so much
Good evening too you all. Treasure init. Happy day's away. 🥰💕🙏👍
I would take that stud to an older trusted jeweler and let them check it out.
I would take it to a jeweller and have them examine it
I never mind a long episode!! It makes me sad when they end.
Please never apologize for the length. I love watching you both!!!
The bone acorn looks like the end of a pull cord and the soldier looks to be holding a grenade launcher.
I love your stopper collection. So sad about your black cat. I would love to collect them too being a cat lover. I wish I lived closer to you cause I have some craft items I would love to send you. I'm not sure how to send them from the US.
Love Kates allo allo French accent. She is an absolute stunner .That stud is certainly interesting. You looked very cold. Lots of laughter and joy and nice long episode.
Oh! You could make a casting of the cats face that you have to replace the one who is faceless!
素晴らしい宝物ですね。
楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
Extra pretty green stopper..very cute mushroom. Your hair is lovely long kate..glad you grew it out. Fleur you have such a fun laugh . Thanks for telling the frozen charlotte story on a previous video even if some like to say its not true. Thats why there are words like myth legend or fairy tale but it could have some truth about it. Still it was very interesting and sad to think about but an explanation that explains the name.
The glass stoppers make me so very envious!
I miss doing things with my Mom. Seeing you two together, I would love to sit down and have a cup of coffee with her.
Amen. My mom passed at 94, and I keep wanting to ask her questions. Unfortunately, my sister passed right after, and I have no one to ask.
Same here…x
I think is part of why I adore watching and listening to Fleur and Kate…they’ve such a lovely mother daughter relationship.x
Same 💔
The lead tube top could be a jewelry display for dollhouse just need to make some jewelry lol
Still enjoy your unique intriguing funny family orientated videos , how is little bro doing. all our best to you and the family , Kate and Flo..... from Churubusco , In formerly Great Yarmouth.....
My favourite comment by Fleur…”ooh, that’s a nice..thing..good for craft.” And you just know it’s going to be transformed at a later date into something gorgeous.
Don’t worry about the poor little cat, you can make him a new face so he can twitch his whiskers and purr again.
The cat can be used in the dollhouse, it's back to the room, looking out a window. The Costumes type can be used as a book in the dollhouse study. I grew up with an old costume book amongst our encyclopedias. The stud, could it be platinum? That would explain it's being untouched in appearance. Another lovely video, thank you both! Have a wonderful week!
Maybe the first of white gold !
When they first found the piece of metal with COSTUMES on it I immediately thought it looked like a book and would look great in the dollhouse study or in any room. The idea of the cat looking out of a window was a great idea. Cats really do love windows at least mine did.
I love you two ladies so much. You remind me on myself and my own daughter. I wish the world was made up of more people like you.
Costumes: During Victorian times and a bit after, the word “costume” was often used to describe a whole outfit. So, if a character from Downton Abbey was going to somebody’s country estate, they might be recommended to “bring their “riding costume” (riding boots, riding skirt, jacket, hat, crop, etc.). Or if you were a modern girl, you would certainly own at least one bicycling costume. And certainly any fashionable woman would have a walking costume for every season. Of course, the word was also used to describe theater costumes, fancy dress ball costumes, etc. So, I could see a newspaper or fashion magazine needing to head up a section with “Costumes” often enough to want a reusable whole word. The “s” looks a bit fancy and fun too. 😁♥️
P.S. The costume example pictures you found are amazing!
I'm like some viewers I see things and want you to pick them up you are of course focused on the item you are finding a great video never too long some great comments about the stud. Love it thanks so much
My Mum talked of wearing a costume in the 1970’s, it was an old fashioned word but still in use. Mum’s costume consisted of a crimplene skirt and jacket worn to a wedding if I remember right. ❤
Now you need to find a miniature hookah smoking caterpillar for the awesome mushroom knob 🍄🙃
You'll have to do a diorama of a battlefield with all of those badly blown up lead soldiers you two find 😂 Some great things there, especially the stoppers (plus we got to see Kate's mega find smile afterwards). An afternoon mudlarking with you two must be amazing therapy, appreciating the little things! I thought that badge looked like Battersea power station 😂
Isn't she beautiful.
@@sapphonymph8204 indeed! Although it's probably awkward for me to say 😂
@@richardserridge2767 not awkward at all. Some of us appreciate a compliment.
Watching Fleur & Kate mud lark is definitely therapeutic for me 🧘♀️
What a great idea!
Please don't apologise for length of video. It was very exciting, informative and entertaining. Your larks and roundups are fascinating.
So much fun watching your video today lovely finds
Hello 👋 from New York USA you Guy's found Some Amazing Finds my Thank you for Bringing me Along with you Guy's I can't wait to see What you Find Next 😊
I just love love love Kate's mushroom.................. wonderful and lots of really interesting metal finds as well as the beautiful green glass stopper. Real shame about the cat missing its face but if you get a ball of milliput and cover it in cling film and press the face of a cat into it you should get a mould from that and then press milliput in that on the fklim and you should then get a face to put on the featureless cat. Hope that makes sense!! A good lark that one and I am looking forward to next weeks too. Sorry for putting things up on here as I saw them. Bye for now and I am going to email you.
Good idea
The beautiful metal stud you found could be made from 'nickel silver,' which was also called Maillechort, German silver, Argentan, new silver, nickel brass, albata, or alpacca. It doesn't actually have silver in it: the typical recipe is 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc. In Victorian & Edwardian times it was most commonly used to make accessories that didn't touch the skin (it turns the skin green) it is bright and silvery in color, and it doesn't tarnish.
Splendid
You have nothing to worry about Kate. your pronunciation of French was fine. Awesome video.
It's amazing how much information you can get from such tiny stamps in the stud. It did shimmer slightly golden on the back when you pointed it into the camera. Shame about the cat but I'm sure you will find a whole one soon.
On another channel talking about clay pipe stems, a comment was made that you can tell when a pipe was made by the size of the pipe stem hole. Just a thought with all you find.
Treasure beach surely proved it's name today, to name a few... the mystery silver, the stopper, type set "costumes" and my favorite is the mushroom knob. Thanks Ladies!
Sure you know about the Liverpool Museum archive of claypipes.
I am fascinated by the knob that looks like a mushroom. It changes with every turn!👍🏻😃👍🏻
Couldn't get here fast enough! I absolutely love your videos! Thank you ladies!
Love your name.
Fleur, I wish you had kept the 'hairy' pipe stem at the very beginning of the video. To me it looked just like a tree trunk and I thought it could be used in the dolls house garden. Lots of fun finds as always.
Your little stud could of very well had a gold gilt....common at that time both in England and the US. but I don't think the gilt would be marked...a mystery ! Who would have thought such a little stud has such a big story! I love all three of them!
Awesome
Oh wow, you can use the one with a face to make a mold for the one with no face! 😊
Great idea.
Yay!! A dreary, rainy day in my corner of Texas. So happy to see a video from y'all. I was sooo bored and tired of looking for something to watch.
I'm feeling the same way in Oklahoma. But Fluer and Kate are the perfect cure for anything depressing. I miss Texas so much. Greetings, Barb
Me too, so much sad news, the days are lightening up with the sun beginning to set at 5:00, the golden hour here.
I so look forward to your videos. Thank you for an interesting video. A Mum and daughter who have a great relationship and don't mind a giggle or two. 😊
Great fun watching you two discovering your great finds!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
The crank looks as though it's frm an old tram love the little studs x
Latter half sometimes sounds like it has a cat purring in the background. 😃👍
I like the long films.
I lovvvve the bottle stoppers and I do collect them all from second hand shops so I really appreciate the little old one's
I think the stud must have been gold plated, because that is solid silver, not anything of lower quality. It's beautiful. Do you know about the advanced searching by putting crucial words in quotes and using a minus sign to eliminate words? It helps to eliminate the word "earring" (-earring) when searching for "stud"! Gorgeous finds today.
I believe you can make a face for your crackerjack charm and guild the pretty face and make it look fabulous. The two of you are very creative so I can’t wait to see the end product.❤
Love the sherd story and Fleur laughing was so funny. Fantastic video ladies thank you
I love the long vids , I want them all to be over an hour long , I just can’t get enough , peace ✌️
Totally agree
Very nice metal/lead finds I enjoyed your larking. 💗💗💗💗💗
I have to be careful when I watch your channel. I get absolutely lost in it, and before I know it, an hour has gone by. Love, love watching you, and seeing what you find!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Some nice finds. It looked cold though. Burrr
Thanks for the vid! Is the complete soldier carrying a bazooka? Much love!
Awesome finds,,,once again! By the way, any time clear glass goes purple in the sun over time, it is due to some quartz in the silica mix. Thus it begins to become more like an amethyst which is a quartz type that spent a long period near radiation that caused the impurities in the qartz to change color. (Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz (SiO2) and owes its violet color to irradiation, impurities of iron and in some cases other transition metals, and the presence of other trace elements, which result in complex crystal lattice substitutions.[2][3][4] The hardness of the mineral is the same as quartz, thus making it suitable for use in jewelry.) So, the more radiation (from the sun or other sources of radiation) the glass is exposed to, the more lavender/purople it will become. Perfect for window display.
Oh,dearest Fleur,...you’re such a chuckler and giggler !!! and Kate,you show such emotion on your face. Love you both,from Jo. xxxxxxx
I absolutely love the mushroom, my fave, lots of lovely things you find and the stud is so interesting.
It may have been said before, but Kate looks to be the perfect reincarnation of a Gibson Girl. Cheers, Ardith
Fabulous finds ladies ....love the excitement of the find x
The mystery item is likely used as a stocking button for a probably Victorian Era garter stay
Take the stud to a jeweler and have it tested. I am betting it is some sort of white gold not silver. I think this is one of my favorites of the mudlarking videos. The faceless cat, green stopper, bone acorns, badges…fun stuff!
Treasure Beach never disappoints!
So happy to see yous again.
Great Video and Great finds👍
You would never get me off that site!
How exciting.
So fun as usual! I love your mother daughter moments! Your 3rd coin may be an American quarter. ❤🇺🇸
You both don't ever need to apologise for the length of your larks. I myself really enjoyed seeing you find and then explain about all your finds.
That dark nob on a piece of metal, with the blob of debris attaced to the end, looked very much to me, like Morse code tapper? I couldn't see it properly on my phone. Just an idea ?
I do think this beech you larked on is such a treasure trove of such interesting finds. That little stud was only tiny, but such a beautiful object.
What a strange combination of markings. I was quite amazed that that pice was still shiny, as silver seems to turn to a dark colour when left aline for so long. It was very pretty.
That stamp with the word Costumes sets the imagination off. Loved that.
A fabulous haul of goodies ladies. I look forward to seeing part two.
Thanks. Very enjoyable. X
I have to travel for 7 hours to get to my fossicking patches.... I live in Perth and twice a year my hubby and I travel out to kalgoorlie.. Our goldfields, but there are many hidden treasures to be found if you know where to look. We are going tomorrow for 2 weeks :)
Best of British luck to you.
@@sticklebacksummer aww thanks
Loved the roundup. Could the .625 on the stud stand for a pre British Imperial System weight? Try weighing all three to compare. The kneeling soldier maybe a WW1 soldier carrying his gas mask bag. Very unique finds 😁
Googled it and it means pure gold that is 15K.. white gold, I imagine. & not silver. It gets mixed with alloys to make it stronger.& longer lasting. That is why it was in such good condition.
I like the new containers you started using to keep your small items in. I love those crystal decanter stoppers. Very colorful piece of glass at 16:05 and a cute tiny piece of pottery at 16:24 right by the tin soldier's head. There was another round white piece at 20:22 by the moss-covered piece of wood above your hand. Have no idea why I was playing a game of spot the find for myself, sorry. At least I didn't point out every rock and piece of glass that caught my eye.
I saw these items too. I definitely would’ve snatched those up 🤗
Me too. The glass was green & I saw a small square tile for the doll's house.I spot things all the time & wonder if they will show up later...hoping they would.
Your handle thing has the look of a Victorian telegraph key to me, but it could just be a coincidence… 🤔
I love the longer films .. As always great video..
Great finds ,I love the stud,strange markings,I would test it ,it seems odd a reliable jeweller would miss mark an item .But no matter what it’s a beautiful piece from the past. Great finding the bone acorn too,can’t think what they were used for as they are too small for light pulls,and because there’s only a hole at the top it would mean the cord could easily pull out.Thanks for taking us along,it looked really cold out there too,and the breeze from the sea must have made it feel colder too..Love n Light 🥰
Finding a knob a small one turned out to be a mushroom 🍄 now that's funny
It's so frustrating seeing things that I could use and can't collect especially fom Australia 🤣🤣🤣
Love watching you treasure hunt, brings so much joy! ❤❤❤
BEAUTIFUL green bottle stopper! Wow!
