Hi, Sandra! How are you? I enjoy your channel. FYI ... the jewelry at 03:10 is not Middle Eastern. It’s actually the Shriners symbol (i.e., the crescent and scimitar).
19.46 wow love love love it and the one after too, plus all the rings especially the Siam one. So much stunning jewellery, your one lucky lady, thank you for sharing your beautiful treasures 👏👏👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺
Beautiful finds as always! That really big necklace with the net design from India reminds me of a cabaret style belly dance necklace. Anything big, bold, provocative, and jingly like that from India is likely stage wear. I know belly dancers. LOL
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter I don’t really know how to date belly dance jewelry as the designs, metals, and stones are mainly variations on a theme and style of dance. There is some crossover between styles of jewelry and costume. I think both of those big necklaces you showed are belly dance, probably more tribal than cabaret style but the silver one could be either. If you do a Google search for belly dance jewelry, you will see a vast array of necklaces. You might try an image search and see what turns up.
I watch a bunch of different jewelry channels. I believe I have 43 bookmarked. Lol. Of them all I learn slot. I have my top 3 that I consistently go to and your's is # 1 of those 3. I check daily to see if a new video is up😁. Your the best . Stay well.
thanks for such wonderful presentations and sharing your knowledge. I have a ring with the Uncas mark which I had tried to research and after watching your channel I was able to identify the maker. I enjoy watching your videos more than once. Please keep them coming.
1:55 The Uncas ring has surrounding Chinese characters all symbolizing luck ...ie. good health, longevity, good luck, prosperity, etc. You held it upside down but I was able to read them 😁...it’s from the 50s. Thank you for having such a wonderful, informative series.
They can bring back the Lustre of that black stone. Jewelers use Ruby Dust. My son used to order it and he made a mix to clean Tractor Trailers. The shine stayed for a year!
Hi Sandra. I love the crystal necklaces best. I have been trying to collect every color even if not as old as yours. I have never seen that beautiful yellow though. It is a ray of sunshine.
Betty, I have NEVER seen yellow glass that "special" looking before. It's really something. Thanks so much for commenting and watching. Happy hunting! xo
Does it? I thought I had tested it. The bad news is I said the wrong thing on the video -- but the GREAT NEWS is it's real gold!!! WOOT! WOOT! Thanks so much for telling me that. YIPEE! Cheers. xo
@1644, are these “glass beads” rock crystal? They are more expensive. Woah, Premier Designs not worth that asking price! My favorite was the blue glass bracelet. Thanks for sharing.
Dana, I've never seen plastic so "lumpy" and "gloopy", but you are likely correct. And the black paint is "bubbling" -- it's so weird! I think you're right about the 1940s date, and plastic is really the only thing that makes sense because it has certainly been painted and it is certainly white underneath. I've never done a hot pin test, but this would be a good item to try it on, since it's kind of a "hot mess" already haha! Thanks so much for your input. Hugs. xo
Always beautiful fun jewelry. Could the black grape brooch be made from gutta percha? I know they used it for necklaces and other jewelry items. Loved the mermaid necklace it looked like turquoise to me. Your videos are always so informative. Thanks!
Thanks girl! I don’t think it’s gutta percha- it may be plastic??? That’s good to know about those beads too. I appreciate you watching and commenting! Hugs.
Research “bog oak” as a possibility for this pin. Wonder about this being mourning jewelry, but not sure if rhinestones were allowed. Looks like a somber piece of jewelry to me…
The necklace at 20:32 is actually pictured on page 8 of Roseann Ettinger''s book Popular Jewelry 1840-1940. The necklace is "In the Egyptian Style, circa 1925-1930." Book ISBN : 978-0-7643-3650-8. Love your videos and your style of presenting! I look forward to your videos!
Hi! Landon dated and to grad with her! Very beautiful,smart and ambitious! They have strong beliefs in there religion and rituals in all of there aspects in life,as we all do! But her mom told me that, everyone thinks that all the jewelry pieces are not real diamonds,gold,silver,etc! She also said that's wrong also because...pieces are handed down and the jewelry is most comany
Sorry, the pieces with silvertone not 925 are used for the wedding necklace still! So I could be,and I bought s jewelry jar and a wedding bracelet was in there, it's silver except the clasp! This peide you would love! It's wide,3 panel,linked,and has a small coin beside the clasp,and looks like floating corral in ocean! How do I send you a picture too? My son is gone to Alta for 2 months I'm sad! How do I send you a gift too were?? Thanks Linda
I love the mourning jewelry pin lacking the deceased person's hair. I'm funny that way.
I love watching your videos. Much to learn about jewelry it`s fun. Thank you for your work. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you so much for watching!
Ooo a De Mario! They made gorgeous necklaces
The blue and red necklace towards the end remind me of Peruvian jewelry.
You think? Okay I’ll research that, thanks for watching!!!!! xo
Love your videos, you have taught me so much!!! I love all the jewelry.
So glad! Thanks for watching! Hugs!

Yes, part of Shiners regalia for their fez.
Ahhhhhh.... Thank you for that! Interesting. Thanks for coming to my channel! Sandra.

Yay! Thank you!
Hi Miss Sandra ! I’m calling you that because you are a My teacher 💕
You're so funny. Nice of you to say. Hugs.
I'm drooling! 💎👀👍
I love the ram bracelet. Lots of great stuff you have.
Beautiful finds as always! That really big necklace with the net design from India reminds me of a cabaret style belly dance necklace. Anything big, bold, provocative, and jingly like that from India is likely stage wear. I know belly dancers. LOL
Oh wow! I hadn't thought of that. Ishara, any idea on age? Thanks for your help! xo

The huge silver chain mail type necklace at 20:10 is amazing!! I'm in love.
Hello Sandra! Also one of a few loving jewelry! Good to see you!
Thank you! You too!
12:27 was probably a watch fob
I was wondering if it was a watch fob, or maybe suspended from a brooch. Thanks so much!!!!! Cheers.

Love this channel.., could you share your other 2 favs?
WOW, such wonderful jewelry!!! Thank you, I loved watching this!

How nice you are. Thank you very much for the kind remarks and I'm happy I could help! Hugs.

Love the Romania amber cuff
They can bring back the Lustre of that black stone. Jewelers use Ruby Dust.
My son used to order it and he made a mix to clean Tractor Trailers. The shine stayed for a year!
That is interesting!!!!!! I hope he can buff it out! Thanks for watching and thanks for your input. xo
The first multicolored brooch+the square blue stone bracelet +gold stone ring favorites. Great haul.
Oh thank you!!!!
Love the flip ring and lovely amber cufflinks
Glad you like them! Thanks so much for watching.
Love the carnelian pendant !

Really nice video and Thank you.
Oh thanks Christina! Hugs.
All the pieces were beautiful. You’re always so informative.
So glad! Thanks for watching, I truly do appreciate it. Sandra.
Hi! Your indian silvertone lrg necklace is a wedding piece I think,ceremonial !!
Ok - thanks for that. Cheers!
I love the wedding type necklace!! TFS
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed. Hugs.
Hello I’m glad to be 1st
On the yellow box it is written in Russian - Amber. 583 Russian gold probe = 14K.
Does it? I thought I had tested it. The bad news is I said the wrong thing on the video -- but the GREAT NEWS is it's real gold!!! WOOT! WOOT! Thanks so much for telling me that. YIPEE! Cheers. xo

Thanks Mae!!! I think you’re right about the rock crystal thing. Thanks for that! Hugs.
I think the intaligo piece that looks like it's.carnelian was found on a heavy chain as part of a watch fob.
You are likely right about that. Thanks so much for your input. xo
Fun thanks! My favourite is the blue bracelet. Is there a way to tell the difference between crystal and glass necklaces? That red one so shiny!
Not that I know of, I think crystal is glass with some lead content? Thanks for watching!
13:50 is definitely 1940’s design it could easily be “modern” -for that time period plastic. Have you tried the hot pin test?
Dana, I've never seen plastic so "lumpy" and "gloopy", but you are likely correct. And the black paint is "bubbling" -- it's so weird! I think you're right about the 1940s date, and plastic is really the only thing that makes sense because it has certainly been painted and it is certainly white underneath.

@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter You can always test it inconspicuously in the back, I think it’s cool and funky
Always beautiful fun jewelry. Could the black grape brooch be made from gutta percha? I know they used it for necklaces and other jewelry items. Loved the mermaid necklace it looked like turquoise to me. Your videos are always so informative. Thanks!
Thanks girl! I don’t think it’s gutta percha- it may be plastic??? That’s good to know about those beads too. I appreciate you watching and commenting! Hugs.
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter Interesting. Plastic has been used for years I have a few pieces from the 40's and 50's but that piece looks earlier.
I know - it’s an enigma!!!!
Perhaps the black grapes are gutta percha? I don't have any myself, so I'm not sure if the texture is right
Hi Elizabeth! It’s not. I can see some white through it - it’s so weird! Thanks a million for the comment and for watching. Hugs.
Research “bog oak” as a possibility for this pin. Wonder about this being mourning jewelry, but not sure if rhinestones were allowed. Looks like a somber piece of jewelry to me…
I don’t think it’s bog oak. I do have other bog oak... good thought tho! Thank you!
I have also sold Premier designs 💜💜💜
Great 👍 i like their stuff!!!
Pretty mermaid
Could 13:34 be a coal type material?
Maybe... It looks like it's white underneath -- so I just don't know!!!! Thanks for your input, good to see you.
👍😎
Pyramide weight for a scale?
The necklace at 20:32 is actually pictured on page 8 of Roseann Ettinger''s book Popular Jewelry 1840-1940. The necklace is "In the Egyptian Style, circa 1925-1930." Book ISBN : 978-0-7643-3650-8. Love your videos and your style of presenting! I look forward to your videos!
How wonderful!!!! Thank you thank you! That's awesome. Thanks for the nice words and thanks for coming!!!!! Hugs, Sandra.
I'd buy bracelet, if I can afford, diamond one.
Foil glass. Woa..95.00$ for glass beads? No wonder she went out of business! Love it all!
Haaaha! Thanks for watching and thanks for the info! Sandra
Intaglio fob watch ?
Probably! It's pretty, right? Thanks for watching and thanks for your input. Cheers.
I think your mystery bunch of grapes is made of bog oak
The other bog oak I have isn’t white underneath, but it’s possible. I will research that. Thanks for your help!!!
Hi! Maybe an India wedding necklace,I think,you??
Could be! Thank you!

Oooh sounds pretty! Email is iamthefunkypickle at gmail dot com!
at 13:50..could it be a jet?
No, it’s way too light for jet. Thanks tho - I know identification isn’t easy if you’re not holding it... thanks so much for watching. Cheers.
I loved Mr. Bill but My làte husband loved him àlso
This is rial Amber from Russia on the box sine Amber buy Russian alfabed and that 585 gold.This is huge amount of gold
Thank you so much for your help!
Do you bother to check the metals of your jewelry before you sell..
Sure I do!
The word you didn't know what it said is written in Russian. I don't know what it says, because I can't read cursive just print.
The mermaid looks like she's in a bad mood
Lol! You're right! Thanks so much for watching!!
