    When James was telling you about that little doohickey, he said it went on the bottom of dress, if I remember correctly it is a corset fastener.😁

    The weird green button is made of Bakelite. The dark ones that you are saying are bone, are actually Antler. Bone buttons will be white or cream colored. They will have tiny lines or graining in them.

    The metal fastener right before 4:00 I believe is for garters, that’s why it’s so small.

      @nancymcshane3501 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They were used to hold up nylon stockings. Either with a garter belt, or sewed into underwear. Definitely from a clothing manufacturer. You could do a bit of research and find a bit about the Mill.
      Enjoyed watching your auction. Went to Chunky Gal this weekend hunting rubies with our UV Lights! My Friend Sean takes tours.

    Those little metal thingies at 6:24 time stamp are called corset fasteners they held the corsets together. At 11:53 time stamp looks like a hat pin topper if it has a hole in just one side.

    Lead buttons could be pewter also and the bone buttons could be some ivory. VERY cool finds there buddy!! I bet you have some corset hooks in with the items you found. Hope you can get back there for another visit soon. :) Also womens' shoes had hooks and small buttons, a rod was used to close them.

    Glad that I found your chanel. The red bead is the top to a hat pin. 1 hole = hatpin, 2 = bead. The small loops with 2 bumps that you keep finding are from corsets. Larger one is for the skirt. Really cool finds.

    I’m watching this and it screams cloth pulp paper mill site. Usually the location of the actual mill would have been either upstream on another creek all together to guarantee the paper mill had fresh water. Great site and a great place to get an idea of what our ancestors wore.

    Is this from a place that took old clothing to convert to felt. Chris Armstrong shot a couple of videos in Massachusetts where they did that they found buttons from all the way back to the 1700s and military buttons from around the world.

    I was down by the Illinois River looking at you know cool stuff by the water and I found some clam shells and they actually had holes where the buttons had been punched out I looked up a little bit of history and found out about 10 miles down the river was a button making factory and they used the shells they found in the Illinois River that sells with the holes in them are cool

    Cool video Kyle. I hope you made sure that fishing string got sent to a landfill. I have some bird houses and every year I find at least 1 dead bird that has been strangled by fishing string. They use it for nesting material and it gets wrapped around them and as they struggle it tightens up and they die, poor kids don't know any better.

  • @valiantwarrior4517

    Kind of looks like someone spilled the huge can of old buttons my mom had when I was a kid. I remember searching through to find matching sets for various clothing items she was working on.
    It’s always fascinating to see the things they created so long ago, despite not having all the fancy technology we have today. Thanks for the video, noble sir!

    The item you found at about minute 21:05 was about 1920s Victorian age clip on earring. There would have been more to it, such as glass beads, stones, tassels, etc. But that little lever on the back is what would have clipped to the lobe of the ear. Nice finds.

    How strange to find all those buttons. It's like the cloths got washed away in the river water. I have some black buttons that look like yours. They are in my mothers button jar.

    Cool! Stuff like that takes a LOT of very specific knowledge to realize what you're looking at... so does fossils and bottles and stuff too, of course, although I think fossils is the "easy" sale there, because most would think that parts of extinct animals are cool, but "what's so special about an old coke-bottle?"-kinda deal. I'm ALWAYS very impressed with people who are knowledgeable about any of these kinds of things, though, and it's very interesting to be introduced to a little part of those worlds... :)

    I wanted to ask if you can tell us to what do you attribute the concentration of buttons/metal buckles & fasteners in this area.
    It is mindblowing to see so many.
    LOVE this video. Will definitely look for James' channel & follow.

  • @pixels2u
    @pixels2u 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Was this area near some kind of old clothing mill? Because that's quite an unnatural amount of buttons, buckles and corset eyelets! The black mourning buttons are from when it was common to wear only black for a year after losing a close family member. There was also a wide assortment of beautiful black mourning jewelry. (learned via The Northern Mudlarks!) I was still looking in your screens for fossils and pretty rocks.

    At 21:00 that’s a tie clip that would keep the the two hanging parts on a tie together so the thin side wouldn’t come out from behind the part on the tie meant to be seen, it’s pretty cool and given the other finds could definitely have been worn by some kind of military personnel

    Hi Kyle, do you think maybe a cemetery or a few upstream might have washed out over the years and left all of the buttons and buckles and stuff to accumulate there?
