Just watched you for the first time. Your knowledge of jewelry is very refreshing. I like that you are not just doing a haul but actually sharing your knowledge about vintage jewelry. I will be back to watch some more!
Thank you so much! Hugs!
I so enjoy your channel. You are easy to listen to, unlike many, and I appreciate your sharing your joy and knowledge with us. Keep up the great videos! Stay well.
Thank you for your kind words. xo
I worked at Napiers as an order picker in the 70s and the Monet poodles' tag brought back some memories. I remember the item number tags that I picked looked a lot like this. I also printed out the tags on a small machine that was like a miniature typewriter.
Nice! Thanks for watching!
I love the pinky flower brooch gorgeous xx
That Pierre Cardin cuff bracelet 19:51 is likely 60s he made quite a few geometric cuffs like that. They sell from $495 upwards to $1,500!! Test it because weirdly he sometimes used sterling silver on TOP of real gold!
Ok, I will test it. It's such a cool piece! Thanks for the info and thanks for watching!! xo
Your antique silver Middle Eastern bracelet is decorated with niello, which is a lead compound. The engraving helps hold the material in the silver.
That is interesting. It looks very thick. THANKS for the info!!!!! xo
I'd wear the gold sash pin on one of Mt scarves!❤
The pin made with colored shells are familiar to me. My mother made jewelry like that in the 1950's and taught her friends the art. I saw many versions on her friends dresses! I still have one piece on my collection.
That's cool. I didn't realize that could done at home as a home craft! Thanks for watching! xo
I just came across your channel and I have to tell you that I love your energy and your taste in jewelry. I would've done the same thing and told that man no also. Ego is a big turn off and I love my finds to go to a home where it's loved and treasured! Again, love your energy! 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you for your lovely comments. And thanks for watching. xo
Did you subscribe Vintage Bridgey?
You are an amazing educator and lovely to watch :))) Thank you for having such a GREAT channel.
Thank you for the kind words. Cheers
Dr Lori says do not ever sell to someone that is appraising your item so you def did the right thing not knowing what it is... Pay to have Dr Lori look at it or your jeweler friend... You just reminded me that I bought a scarab bracelet at a Goodwill about 25 years ago and I am thinking it might be real gold so need to look at it closer. For the last 2 - 3 years I no longer find great jewelry items anymore because GW people are looking up items and then put high prices. Looking forward to seeing more of your purchases...
Yes, I need to have the info before selling. For sure. Very often scarab bracelets were gold filled, so check that out! Goodwill prices are getting annoying, you’re right! Well, happy hunting and thanks for watching!!! xo
I love that you sharing your stories with us! Thank you!
How did the story ended with the bracelet? Was it “the thing”?
I have not had confirmation yet, some differing opinions. Thanks!
Kristen suggested your channel and I’m glad she did. I’ve subscribed, I love the lessons you give, thank you for sharing 👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️
Thanks for subbing! Kristen ROCKS! How cooooool! xo
Video suggestion: Modern day designers that will be collectors pieces in the future. For example, I love Betsey Johnson jewelry and think her pieces will be collectible in the future.
That’s a great idea! I don’t have much new jewelry though! I love Betsey Johnson too and also Iris Apfel. Thanks a ton for watching!!! xo
Ooooo, Sandy, that would be such a cool video!!
I think that would be a great video😀
I love Betsey Johnson but there are so many fakes out there. It surprises me to see so many fakes!
This was so fun to watch and I learned a ton! On to Part 2.....
Beautiful find😊.
I applaud you for keeping the braclet even if it were worthless
I probably is -- haha! Thanks so much for watching Mary!
I would go back and sell the bracelet to him. You might try to make the curmudgeon into a friend who can teach you about ivory, which obviously the bracelet is either walrus or elephant. My guess would be walrus. Illegal to sell new pieces, and not sellable on ebay, but it is legal to sell antique pieces. The difficult thing when you end up with one of these is trying to sell it. What have you got to lose? I like the challenge of building friendships with off-putting people, LOL. Every video of yours btw brings me much joy!
Thanks for the advice and for the wonderful compliment!!!! Cheeeeers!
Love your channel! ❤ I will continue to recommend you to my subbies! You know so much!
Thank you so much!!
Thanks for the great content. Love all the education you provide!
Thanks!!!!! xo
Wow! I wouldn’t have sold it either! Congratulations! All your jewelry is so nice!!❤️❤️✌️
Thanks!!!!!!!! xo
Dear Sandra, I think those pink flowers on the ceramic brooch may be primroses or cowslips... in Italy we call them "primule". I love your videos, you really know what you're dealing with! Your Christmas ones were so so cute, I've seen those fragile kind of glass ornaments I still remember after so many years!
Thanks so much for the information! And thanks for watching! Cheers! xo
Just came across your channel and learnt a lot of new info about vintage and antique jewelry and how to id them. The story telling bracelet looks like silver, and the black "paint" looks like niello. IMO, silver has a specific sheen. Great videos!
Thanks for that! Yes, that bracelet must be silver. I hadn't thought of Niello -- it's very possible. Thanks for your input. I hope to see you soon!!! xo
I would of sold it lol but it is a neat bracelet. Thanks for sharing your treasures with us and the stories.
Thanks for watching! xo
Hello again Sandra, Your knowledge is Amazing! I’ve learned so much. Have a Lovely day. 🌷
I think you absolutely made the right decision regarding the bracelet. If a jeweler or antique dealer or anyone offers you money for an item without explaining what you have they are not to be trusted in my opinion. It could prove to be nothing but I don't think so. If nothing else you have another unique piece of art in your collection. Wonderful pieces in this video and fantastic information. Thank you.
Thanks so much for your input! And I'm so glad you liked the jewelry. Hugs.
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter Did you ever find out what the bracelet was or more information?
I have not! But some of my viewers think it’s not a big deal - maybe a tourist piece from the 40s or 50s… Oh well!!!! Thanks for watching!
Dr lori does appraisals, would be interesting to know what that bracelet is
The bracelet is more common than many think. The print on it, is what makes it different. Alot of these bracelets are tibetan and sold at expo's. When i say bracelets i mean the bolt like hinge style. You went with your heart and i think you made the right choice. It could be a reproduction and it may not. Beautiful bracelet... I think you should enjoy it for a while
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. xo
I have a bracelet like that with the clasp holding looks like,a nail. I think they are mid eastern. I would sell it and take the money. 😅
This was a great video, can’t wait for the next time one!
Oh wow - how nice! Thanks so much. xo
I do think the ring is a dragon! So cool!
!!!!!! I love it even more now!!!! Thanks! xo
Love your great stories about your pieces ❤😊
Beautiful Pieces! Love them all!
Thanks!!!! xo
stunning pieces
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching. xo
Thank you for yet another great video. I’m new to eBay but have been selling on Poshmark for years. Learning as I go. Boy have I made mistakes. Lol
Marie
Hi Marie, we certainly have all made mistakes... I hope you like eBay, I think it's a lot of fun. Thanks for watching!
Love the homemade brooch, I read somewhere that pansies signified secret courting to the Victorians 😽
Interesting!
Very different 😊
Learned so much ! Thank you!!
Polly, I’m so glad. Thanks for watching! xo
Wild roses on the painted pin
Ok thanks for that!! Cheers.
I agree it's Tibetan and very beautiful.
Thanks so much for watching. Cheers
2 of those bars w/ round ends were for holding the collar in 50s&60s I had a couple in and everyone I went to school w/ had one. Or the better off girls
Ok, thank you !
I agree with you on that bracelet. I would want to know more as well! Great pieces😀
Right? Just in case.... Thanks for watching!!!!
I used to be an eBay seller, and one thing I learned from other sellers was that if someone offers you what may seem like a good amount of money to buy something off you, don't accept the offer! You likely have something of much higher value than what they're offering, so you did the right thing. Plus, the guy's attitude stinks, and he doesn't sound like someone who would have your best interests at heart. Re the scarab - my understanding of the dung beetle is that they push their dung along with them, and because the dung appears round, the Egyptians thought that represented the sun :)
Thanks for the comments!!!! That whole dung situation! Haha. And thanks for watching. xo
Love your jeweelry choices , thanks for sharing.
How nice! Thanks so much! xo
I agree your mourning piece is bog oak. I have a piece and it is very light. The c clasp is telling as is the point of the pin going past the edge of the brooch! Nice piece!
Thanks!!!
Pink flowers look like wild rose.
How do you not have more subscribers?? You know so much about jewelry. Im going to tell my friends about your channel🤗
You rock!!!! Thanks so much. xoxox
Hey, Jennifer, hitting the like button gets Sandra's videos out there more.
You did the right thing. Love love your glasses. Take care and stay well.
Thanks!!!!!!! xo
Ooh you had a rod fly by you at the 1.47 minute mark :) So cute.
Check in the hinge where you open it or where it bends for any kind of markings
It’s not marked unfortunately. Thanks for watching!
I love that dress clip
It’s a pretty one. Thanks so much for coming to my video! xo
Great fun as well as educational🥰
Thank you 🤗

That is wonderful to hear! Thanks so much!!
Absolutely LOVE your channel
Thank you so much!
Good you kept the bracelet.. I feel its worth a lot mire by his reaction !
I think so too!
Thanks for showing the ring! It was me that asked! As to the bracelet, no I wouldn't have sold it either! Don't like that kind of way of dealing. The bracelet is neat and does look like it is scrimshaw, have seen other ones much like it but in bone with no scrimshaw so your is definitely unique! Looks 40sish.
😊 thanks!!! xo
Turquoise is often paired with red Jasper.
Also could be agate.
Thanks for watching! xo
That ”S” is from Sikorsky Aircraft in Stratford CT. That was a gift for an employee’s 5 year anniversary with the company.

Love the weird dragon ring
Thanks so much, and thanks for watching. Cheers.
If I remember correctly Swarovski worked with Christian Dior in the early 1950’s to create AB coating. They released a “perfected pieces” in 1955 and then licensed to Corocraft for the Vedome line. I’ve heard there are a few Christian Dior pieces with AB from 1954. But when faceted plastic became common the AB coating became available to those not Uber wealthy. So by 1959-60. If that helps with dating for anyone.
Awesome information! Thanks for that! xo
Hi I look forward to your next jewelry haul
Yay! Thank you!
I love the dress clip.
Thanks Barbara!! xo

💖💖💖💖💖
Thanks for that! Yes! xo
Really enjoy your channel! Thank you!
I’m so glad! Thank you! xo
I have learned so much! Good job!
Awesome! Thank you!
Your bib necklace could be from the 80's. I do have purse & wallet & cig pack holder & lipstick case & key chain that I am pretty sure my grandmother bought then. I had a necklace made of it but...got caught up in the excitement of a Dokken concert and threw it on the stage lol also mid 80's
I remember Dokken! Thanks for your input and thanks for watching.
Still loving your videos, a collector after my own heart, anything that's quality and interesting is what I collect, with an emphasis on Victorian jewellery lately. I can't wait to see more of what you got.
The bracelet with the black drawings looks like niello. The etching where it's missing would be to help the black metal adhere. This one is more unique than a lot I've seen, this technique is mostly form Russia or from Thailand/Siam. There are also some Victorian examples that are more geometric or striped designs. I've been eyeing some niello watch chains but a bit beyond my budget usually.
Thanks so much for writing to me! I love Victorian stuff too. Somebody else thought Niello also -- the thing that is throwing me off is the fact that it looks like clay -- it's so thick! It must be Niello though, likely just looks clay-like because it's so old. It looks bit Middle Eastern to me design wise. Not sure!!! I'm going to keep working on it. Sometimes these old pieces become wonderful mysteries that never get solved, and add to their charm! THANKS for watching! xo
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter If you do figure it out I'd love to hear! It's a lovely piece. Thrifting and then solving the mystery is half the fun I think. Sometimes after I stop researching I stumble across the solution to a piece and that's almost as exciting as finding it in the first place.
Ok - will do!!!!! Hugs.
Hello. New to the Chanel and subscribed. The bone bracelet is not uncommon. Most likely from India and could be camel bone or some other not illegal bone. They have made this type of hinged bracelets foreverrr and continue to do so. I sold those over 20 years ago and I went to India for a month 5 years ago and you still see them all over in markets. The etching is a little different but not the bracelet and the blister pearl ring is hideous and enjoy it with great health always. Keep showing us those great treasures.
Respectfully Adele
Adele, thanks so much for sharing your expertise on the bracelet! Regarding the ring - lol!!!! I love it even tho I also acknowledge its hideousness, hahaaaa! Hugs.
I wouldn't have sold it . Good choice
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Last brooch was really pretty.
Christina -- you like 'em old don't you? Me toooooooooo!!!!!! Thanks for watching!!!! xo
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter They tell a story about the person who owned them before.
The pink flower pin is wild roses
Ok, thanks for watching!
I’m so happy I stumbled across your channel your taste is Amazing 🤩 and similar to mine I love ❤️ everything ❤️🙏🏾
So glad! Thanks for watching!!!
The cross at 48:33 has tge lirds prayer in tyd center stone. Look at ot with the loope.
I only have one stanhope -- it's of the Statue of Liberty! But I can't see anything in this cross. Not sure why. A couple other people said the same thing to me. I will have to check it again -- I hope it is! I just don't see the Lord's Prayer -- it look "blank". Thanks for the info and thanks for watching!!!! xo
Wow on the frog set. Lol
I know, it's crazy!!! Thanks for watching. xo
Just found your channel. I love it. The amber looks like nuts that people in Hawaii use for worshiping. Love that you are down to earth. I"m hooked.
Thanks so much Daphne!!!! Yay!!!
oh i also have a bracelet like the one you refused the 1200 for and im gonna get that out tommorow and check it out compared to yours . it has the same clasp and made exactly the same way.
Great! Lemme know if you find out anything about it... I'm still not sure, but I'm thinking it's not valuable... Cheers!
I would of done exactly what you did. It must be worth more !
Not sure. Here’s hoping!!! xo
I was referring to the bracelet that ivory looking bracelet to check in the hinge of that were were you hoping it for any kind of markings
It is unmarked! Sadly. Thanks Donna!!!
The Egyptian goddess brooch is marked in Arabic 750 which translates to 18 k gold
Thank you!
The bangle/bracelet that you were offered $1,200. by the crusty ‘ole dealer is Indian. I have several in my safe from a purchase in 1987 from a dealer who specialized in pieces from India circa 1850s to 1940s. Most like this were made in bone but I’ve not seen any with designs like yours. The ivory ones are heavily carved with 80% silver clasps. Con’t
Ok Kay, thanks for that info, good to know!
Love the dragon ring. Yes, I do think it is. I am going to unsubscribe.
But then I am instantly going to subscribe again. Because somehow, maybe I have too many channels I am subbed to, but I hardly ever see your videos come up on my notifications, so hopefully by subscribing again it will put that as the top notifications for me. Because I really do enjoy everything that you show us. you are wealth of information.
Thanks so much!!!!!
1st time checking you out, glad to become a subscriber, You rock😊😄😄💎💎💎✨💫
Yay! Thank you!
@2:10 That angle looks like early nantucket scrimshaw maybe whale one in which case it is worth more than 1200 bucks. If I love a piece of jewelry or art I found at a yard sale or thrift store even if I paid a few bucks for it...I don't like it due to its monetary value...of course it is nice to make a few bucks if it it something I like but not in love with because it enables me to uy something I love.
Thanks so much and thanks for watching. Cheers
I would love to find a blank mourning pendant or brooch well two as one for my mum to pot my brothers hair in and the other for my fur babies hair
That would be lovely for sure. xo
100% keep the bracelet. Possibly whale bone or similar. Research the sailing ship type.
I will research that, great idea. Thanks for watching!
Those bracelets are eastern in origin and made of bone. They are not very valuable and are sold around here from €3-€10 in the tourist areas. Yours might be a bit more valuable because of the etchings on it
Thank you so much for the info. Cheers!!! xo
Thank you !👍👏
