I thought that might be the Pyrex Starburst when I saw the title. My late Mom lived with me the last 4 years of her life and had Alzheimer's disease. I used to buy bags of jewelry and buttons from the thrift store. We had hours of fun digging through the treasures and sorting them. ❤🇨🇦
Aww, that is such a tremendous memory! Alzheimer's is a devastating disease -- my greatgrandfather had it (we just called it being "senile" back when I was a kid), then my grandmother, now my aunt -- I am so glad that you were at least able to enjoy your time with your mother digging through those bags of treasures from the thrift store!! I am sure those hours meant a lot to her too!
For not knowing anything about pyrex about a year ago you have spent some time educating yourself about it. I used to be an appraiser for the Salvation Army and am self taught also. The things that interest me the most are the things I know nothing about. It is just as exciting to find something unusual or a bit different and learning something of its history and value as it is to find something you are certain of the value.
I love watching you go through jewelry! And the way Mellissa never wants to keep anything that can sell, what a sweet lady she is and her loving husband that say's no, you keep it you never know where you can wear it.
Oh fantastic the things you find I’m very upset. I had some gentleman come in and do some contracting work and I had a bunch of my Pyrex stored in the attic. They literally broke all my Pyrex end it all had to be thrown away. I had about 20 pieces up there. I had no space for it down in the cabinets so I put it in the attic to keep it safe yeah, five for keeping it safe and they put insulation. And they smashed everything in the boxes. I complained about it, but nothing was done.
Love the mid century Pyrex. Ladies are using clip earrings to dress up their shoes 👠 Whoever had this idea is a genius. I laughed when you said the crystal was broken on the watch and luckily you had one. Then slowly slid open a small drawer filled with different size crystals. 😮 😂 Alexander your always prepared. 😊
Hi Alex and Melissa, You probably know this Alex, when looking for metal content on jewelry, look at every plain, every angle. I have found metal content on a cross, on one of the arms, almost up into the corner, on the underside of the arm. I know I have bought jewelry that I was told was costume and found a makers mark and metal content in a strange place. 10 k. Pretty cool. Melissa, wear your brooch any time you choose. Be different and wear it for the sparkle when it doesn't match what you're wearing! Be brave and be different! You only go around once! Take care guys.
Love your videos 💯 Allways learning something! Spend a full day watching the Potter Marys Home ! Next day a video popped up with the trashed House??!!! I was just as heartbroken as you guys 💯 Feeling that i know all those great people, spending hours after hours of hard work and effort😢 You have so much great material on this Channel! Allways entertaining to Watch you and family opening boxes, finding Strange and cool Strange stuff 😃 Any treasure! So Well deserved! Thanks for sharing Knowledge and find you funny, on dad jokes and stuff😂
Wow, great finds! FYI: Some older "costume" jewelry earrings actually have solid GOLD studs and backings. Most are hallmarked really fine on the stud itself and require a magnifying 🔎 glass to be seen.
Lol, corral those sets of earrings with an old deck of cards. Just make a slot in the middle of the card and slide the clips thru or punch the earring post thru the card. Great way to display brooches too😉
My grandmother has that same Atomic (Cinderella Serving Casserole) Pyrex dish with lid. It's the turquoise color and I believe was only produced in 1960 but not sure. I told her years ago it was worth a lot of money. She laughed and said she thinks she paid $5 for it if even that. It did come with a holder and I think candles but she didn't know what happened to them. When going through her things after she passed away I found a large Atomic Eyes bowl and the smaller Pink Daisies casserole though it's missing the lid. My aunt has this stuff now and I told her she can get quite a bit of money for this stuff but she wants to keep them. You sure did find some great items.
Back in the early 90's , I had that exact same "black snow flake" design pyrex casserole dish - with the lid. I'm not sure how I acquired it - but it had been in my cupboard for a long time. Then, when my Border Collie had puppies - I used that dish to feed the puppies once they were weened from mother. It was used through three litters of puppies and then the dish disappeared......it may have been broken.....I just don't remember. Well, easy come - easy go.......
The (hockey) cup your holding is 100% from Sweden. Our highest league here "SHL" (swedish hockey league) was called "elitserien" (elite series) before they took the name SHL as it is named now. You can also see three crowns on the cup, which is what our national hockey teams is called "tre kronor" (three crowns).
Len Lunde played and coached in Finland and Sweden. He was the head coach for Västra Frölunda IF in the Swedish top league Elitserien in 1981-82. That is probably when he got that trophy.
Alex, the earrings with a ‘screw on’ would definitely be more expensive jewelry because of the screw on back. That is a typical Asian/ Indian style earrings, being gold from 22-24 carats gold and that’s why the screw on backs
I have a pair of gold and enamel earrings with the screw-on posts, and I've only worn them once. Painful to put on, painful to remove, wrecked my piercings for a week while my lobes healed. I considered having them changed, have never gotten around to it, so they sit at the bottom of the box. 22K.
You really found some interesting things . Clip on earrings are hard to find for those of us who can't wear pierced for one reason or other . Love the Jewelry mix . Sifting through that would be so much fun . Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
I have been collecting Pyrex for about 11 years. I have a black snowflake just like yours. I finally found the one piece I had been searching for at an estate sale a few years ago for only $22. It was the Spirograph pattern.
Fun stuff! My son in law is from Edmonton and we just came back from a nice visit to your town and got to see the sights around town. We enjoyed the folk festival also.
That was so cool to see. I enjoy your video And I've been watching your rough videos. I enjoy her videos because she was just like you. It's all real or nothing.😊
The “Starburst” Pyrex 575 Dish with 550 clear glass Lid is a promotional pattern from 1960 that would have also come with a Cradle (a metal holder) that had plastic handles and dual candle warmer that was originally called a Cinderella Serving Casserole. Worth closer to $400-$800 US without the cradle. Nice find but not quite the holy grail of Pyrex sorry. Mod Stars… now THAT’s a super HTF Rare Pyrex. Best wishes!!
What a fun video! As a fellow jewelry treasure hunter I always enjoy seeing what people find! Nothing is more exciting than getting a big box or bag of jewelry to go through and find the treasures in it! Loved your drawer of watch crystals, my husband and I need to find something like that ! Wr have kits of different batteries but we need to find some kind of collection of crystals ourselves because we buy ,repair, and sell a lot of watches! Thanks for another fun video and congrats on the great stuff you found including those rare Pyrex! Hope the stuff you’re going back for turns out to be really great stuff!
Got a bulk purchase of vinatage costume. I had some of the same ones you have. I did find some nice items worth more. Some of it I couldnt give away. Especially the little artists ones you found.
Yes, the 50s to 70s jewellery goes well here in NZ too and I get around US$12 per item. I sell individually, and 2-to-1 brooches sell to other jewellery.
Len Lunde born in Campbell River, BC totally awesome. I am not much of a jewellery person but love looking through old coins and the history of folks that you buy from their estates....
Most excellent Brother and Sister. Can't wait for more treasures from this Legendary Hockey Man's estate. Thanks always for sharing Your passion and adventures from Toronto Ontario Canada 😎👍♥️🇨🇦♥️💯💯💯💯💯✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
The Morgan looks to be in pretty good condition and nice score on the Tiffany earrings and gold watch!! I think you will discover many more items of value in the alleged "junk" jewelry. ( Caveat: Unless that plastic Cameo is Bakelite, it's worth about 50 cents). As far as Pyrex worth more than a grand...give me a break. I believe you but just must shake my head at what the modern buyer sees as valuable. It's cookware!! Give me a break. Right up there with the Glassy Babies...sigh. Thank you for a fun video!
I can't help it I am officialy nuts...I am screaming ad my tablet again...its there...right there...lol. I love old treasures like that, sadly the juweliers of my grandma(88) and so also from her grandma was stolen 😔

I would love to see you go to England that’s when you will find real antiques in things worth money. With a metal detector.❤❤❤❤
I’m staring at the earring he’s looking for, so frustrating. LOL
Very nice finds!!! 💓💝💘❤💖 watching your videos, thank you for sharing and have a great evening!!
I love watching you go through jewelry! And the way Mellissa never wants to keep anything that can sell, what a sweet lady she is and her loving husband that say's no, you keep it you never know where you can wear it.
Good old wavy square❤
Melissa, wear your waterfall pin on a jean jacket. I love my vintage pins and wear them on sweaters and jean jackets ❤
My mom collects vintage pins and displays them on vintage lace,there pretty to look at in a bedroom or bathroom ❤

Didn’t you claim on your house insurance?
The blue wave brooch would look great on a winter coat
I like the eclectic themes of your videos. There is something for everyone.

The clip on jewelry on the shoes was big in the late ‘80’s.

@@urbanurchin5930...I noticed that too!! Glad you pointed it out!!!
And in the 50s as well. @@gb4375
Loved the jewelry section. Sorting through boxes like that is my kind of fun ❤❤❤
Don't forget to use the loop on earring posts, sometimes the 925 or kt stamp is there!
This is the 2nd time I've watched this video & I can't tell you which time I loved it more!
❤❤❤❤❤

Take care guys.
My grandmother had that dish when I was young. I wish I could have had that in my kitchen.
Celluloid, not cellulite 😂 that made me chuckle haha
......the fat from the backs of your legs......
Perhaps Alex might sell some of the "cellulite" jewelry by the pound? 😅
I love that you now understand the value of Pyrex. Even old CorningWare and Corell is fun to own
Lots of fun 🎉
I looked up the mint green atomic starburst Pyrex and one sold Aug 21, 2023 for $750 US. Great find!
That Pyrex Dish is Fabulous!
Another exciting jewellery haul....Awesome finds too........ Looking forward to your next episode ... Best from BC
My mom had some of that Pyrex design. Makes sense, my father worked for the company that made it back in the '50s...
Vintage clip on earrings are quite desirable for dressing up a pair of plain pumps. Totally changes the look.
Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all
Binge watching from my home in Paraguay. So fun to watch!
Love your videos 💯

Yay! A new Curiosity Inc. Video. Time to grab some popcorn!! :)
I watched it while eating tuna salad on crackers!
Love the Pyrex.
Love the Pyrex! Look at all those watch crystals! If I ever see you coming I think I'll hide my watch!😁
Hi Alex, Awesome shirt. The 70's are coming back in style young people finding thrift shopping cool.

Nicely done, thanks for sharing. If Im ever there i'll ask to have a "pik a nik " with "Boo Boo". Love Hana Bar Bara too, Yogi!
Treasure, I love your jewelry sorting videos.
Treasure, I love your jewelry sorting videos.. That turquoise pyrex dish is gorgeous! .

That turquoise pyrex dish is gorgeous! 😻
I once bought a Tiffany & Co (Elsa Peretti) silver flower cuff from a thrift shop for $3. Whilst it no longer suits me I still have it.
Really fun
You found a lot of great items,Alex. I hope you will go back there for more.🙏🏻🥰
It will be fun to see what other hockey related items you aquire. The jewelry lots that you find are always fun to see. 🙂🙂🙂
I believe that the Sarah Coventry Jewlery is still worth some nice coin if you can find it.
Alex, I just love watching you open jewelry boxes up and all the things you find.🥰 also like seeing all the different coins you get.
Maybe scrimshaw on bone ring. Check to see if the ring is reclaimed Ivory. Like Old pool balls, piano keys, or handles off of old silverware.
Great jewelry pieces...🥰🥰

I always check out thrift stores for clip on earrings.
@@patpeters6331 unfortunately we have very few thrift stores here and they mostly have larger objects like furniture .

That Pyrex blue comes with a gold color stand that has a warming tray with 2 warmer spots for like a sterno set to serve warmer dishes.
I LOVE cameos ❤so classic victorian😊❤
I would LOVE those “penny” buttons!!
Thanks Alex!

My Mother had a set of those Pyrex dishes in that same pattern.
Looks like the earring lot I have got from my mom and aunt. I think some are from around 1980.
The rose is cellulite. I have the same but its a brooch.
Melissa needs to do a DIY with that brooch and wear it in her hair!
You've got a lot of 1980s jewelry there, which is when those huge earrings were in style.
You are back!
Yes[!] on the beautiful Pyrex Piece
Mercedes earrings?! ha ha
Alex: You want to buy some jewelry made of cellulite?
Me: Hard pass.
