The red & blue beads you found that you called "pony beads", are actually called Prosser beads. This particular style were made in Czechoslovakia for around 100 years. I collect old trade beads (I have thousands, some over 2000 years old) & Prosser beads were popular in Africa & that round style with the big seam at their equator were sometimes called Olombo beads. It was 2 Englishmen, Richard & Thomas Prosser, who invented the process in 1840 for making pressed porcelain buttons, later adapting his clay & metal press to make crude beads out of the same material. The French started making them in the 1860's in Bohemia (which later became part of Czechoslovakia) out of glass & the beads continued to be made into the 20th Century, where that type's production mostly ended in the 60's & 70's. The glass factories in Czechoslovakia made hundreds of styles of beads for trade with many different cultures, from Native Americans to tribes scattered all over Africa. I didn't expect to see any of that style in an English landfill!
I love the talk at the end. I'm so glad you put that back in. Everyone seems to love the little bottles. Why don't you have a give a way sometime with ones you don't want instead of leaving them behind 😁
@@carolmay5168 , I looked it up and they are very similar, but the point on the end identifies it as a fish knife. I’ve got to check mine. Coming from plain folks, ours may have been misidentified, because I believe mine may also have a point.
Hello ladies wonderful finds. I live in Newfoundland Canada 🇨🇦 and it happens that our capital city is St. John’s and I am a St. John’s Ambulance instructor so guess what I vote for the window of wonders lol
I love to listen to you talk about your finds and their history and I do not think you talk on too much! I enjoy watching your videos and thank you for taking us along with you. Please! ❤❤
I can listen to you two talk and show your finds forever. You have so many and so many stories behind them. I just adore history and learning more of it thru you two. Thank you for that. 😊I loved the video.
Thank you for the history of the Gordon bottle. We were ready for a trip to Scotland in March of 2020 (nice timing!) with an emphasis on the Gordon Clan as this is my mother's maiden name. Fortunately for us, we discovered Northern Mudlarks and we've been enjoying your vlogs for years now. So thank you for everything!
That was quite a trip you took through the undergrowth! I love how you find those beads and never leave them behind..looks so lovely strung together with all the others..thank you for the history lessons on that bottle and the badge..treasures
That was a really interesting lark. Loved all the tiny bottles and the badge of St John's ambulance could have been an arm badge. It looks a bit big for a hat badge and being shaped to go round the arm. Lovely small blue poison, well done spotting that one Gail. Lots and lots of lovely finds today and those lovely aqua bottles with the bubbles. The gin shaker bottle I have never seen before. What a great lot of finds you found today. Stay safe. Still laughing at your cats name every time I think of it......Ha Ha Ha.
Love all the tiny bottles you found! I enjoy the history as well, so don't think that you go on too much, it's one of the reasons I enjoy watching. 😊 I would have loved to see the little heart closer up. Happy first day of spring from Texas!
Ah Alex as soon as I saw the doll head that Gail found I could see you making some macabre with it! Not many people of a string of false teeth. Love your sense of humor!
You ladies could never talk too much! The St. John's Cap Badge was exciting me. Such a magnificent history dating back to 11th Century. Love your videos, and all of the history to share with us. Have a great week!
Lovely green and blue bottle Gail found, every time Gail says I LOVE IT I’m sat here thinking the same. So looking forward to the weather gets better and you guys go back to beach combing, one of the beaches you regularly go to has had some changes and the finds are wonderful.
So fun to watch you find these incredible things. I find it very relaxing, but even more I really enjoy listening to the history of the pieces you find. So gratifying. Thank you so much for all your work and filming this for us. Sending lots of love from California.💜🤗🤟🏻😎🇺🇸
I love bottles, especially cobalt blue ones and green ones!! That’s what I’d love to search for, bottles and rocks. There were so many beautifully shaped rocks that I saw that I would’ve picked up. Another great video Ladies!! Thank you!!😍😍
I love the beads when you have cleaned them up and threaded them. Also I love the cup and saucer, they would look great with a sponge wear design on them. Such a shame about the whole dolls head that was burnt , it would be good if it could be cleaned up. Great video ladies xx
Congratulations on 90K, you will make 100K this year. In the US we pronounce it as TANG GA RAY gin. I love the tiny blue bottle or cup and saucer for the window of wonders!!! Thank you so very much Ladies!!! Awesome case gin bottle!
I love the cup and saucer! The cup handle is so delicate. So wish I was close enough to come mudlark with you two, but California is a bit too far. In the meantime, thank you both so much for vlogging your adventures! Much love!
Excited over St.John Ambulance badge, Its volunteer work with those that have first Aid, CPR and much more knowledge that help at public events until EMT, arrive, they do so much good for others and are recognized for their achievements, years of service Alex I would really love to know your expression when you get excited “ I am absolutely chucked”. Meaning I just love the two of you taking us on such interesting journeys, teaching me so much and how creative you both are. I would love to see Scotland one day, if I do would love to meet you both, I am finally getting some help with rare painful disease I wait a year for treatment that gives me controllable pain, quality of life for two months so I take advantage to go on a holiday. You both have gotten me through many days being bed ridden and I thank you both.
What stunning finds the knife is a butter knife for lifting balls of butter at an elegant dinner. S t John's badge is so well preserved. Gordon's history I d amazing Many thanks
You ladies are AWESOME love watching you finding those treasures you certainly keep us entertained and I love it Thank you for giving us history behind your finds
Hello 👋 from New York USA you Guy's found Some Amazing Finds my Favorite Definitely Was the coffee ☕️ cup the Shaker Cocktails 🍸 bottle the beads and the doll parts Thank you for Bringing me Along with you Guy's I can't wait to see What you Find Next ☺️ 😊
Hello Gail and Alex! I missed this video and so happy to be catching up. That was so amazing for the diggers to give y'all the Gordon's Gin bottle...it's just beautiful and enjoyed the story! I had to mention at 10:22, when Gail found the "end of a fork", I spotted a small round piece, kind of like a "jump ring" or something above it🤔...it was to the right and was sitting below that smaller yellowish rock. You can go back and spot it, I was hoping you might have seen it off camera and maybe we might see it in the end but I guess you didn't see it. Alex's spectacular find of the ambulance badge was just INCREDIBLE!! This was another awesome adventure from our "digging diva's"...the "Northern Mudlarks"!! Big ((Hugs)) and Love from Texas!!🤗💙
Hi, what a wonderful river-lark, so many fun finds. I had thought the tooth looked like a bead, ha ha, I'm sure there must be a whole set out there. Looking forward to seeing your projects come to fruition. such a talented pair, have a great week.
Another amazing haul of precious treasures with great history too. I think the St Johns badge for the window. Take care and thank you for taking us along with you 👍🙏❤️
when I was young I remember going to Leeds and in one of the shopping arcades was a shop called the Doll’s Hospital where you could take toys to be repaired. Love the history behind your finds, thank you for your research
I for one enjoy hearing you "waffle on" about your finds. I like to hear your thoughts about what you’ve found. A great way to end the videos, thanks for bringing the roundup back!
I can’t believe you didn’t keep the Eiffel Tower bottle

So happy you saved the burnt doll head. So compassionet.
No, you two could never talk too much! I love your voices and your topics.
I love the talk at the end. I'm so glad you put that back in. Everyone seems to love the little bottles. Why don't you have a give a way sometime with ones you don't want instead of leaving them behind 😁
Or sell them in your shop!!
A fish knife I’ve never heard of. We would have thought it a butter knife.
Agree. We call them a butter knife.

Gail, you missed a slate pencil. The blue bottle really made this a good day as well as the St. John’s Ambulance cap badge.
I saw that too.
@12:10? Carbon battery core.
❤❤❤❤

Fascinating as usual!❤🇺🇸
I wished you would have kept that strange kinda square big bottle. I would have loved to buy it from you.
Hi, what a wonderful river-lark, so many fun finds. I had thought the tooth looked like a bead, ha ha, I'm sure there must be a whole set out there. Looking forward to seeing your projects come to fruition. such a talented pair, have a great week.
You’re videos bring me so much joy! Thank you for taking us along on your forages. ❤️
I’m looking forward seeing you decorating those plain cups ❤
Really enjoy your videos! Love watching your hands go from clean to muddy. Smiles from Florida USA!
lovely video some super finds, alway great seeing your larks
Thank you! xx
That Tanqueray bottle is the same shape as present pretty cool wish it was green with the red seal. Great find.
I think the white tooth you found is actually a bead. A parcel with a bow on the front.
My fave find is your cup and saucer set! Lovely! I would use it for my morning cup of coffee! ☕
ambulance badge or new perfume bottle stop
Another amazing haul of precious treasures with great history too. I think the St Johns badge for the window. Take care and thank you for taking us along with you 👍🙏❤️
Great stuff as always.
