Omg that Opal ring has to be worth sooooo much money! She’s GORGEOUS!!!!
I love it too. Thanks so much!!!
Love your channel and videos, you do a great job !! I'm almost 75 years old now and I've learned so much watching you !!! I have two costume pieces I love, one is a van dell pin, one is a long pearl necklace by Monet. I learned that from you,thanks so much !!! I love the bracelet with the blue lapis, love blue lapis have lots of lapis and sterling. Have a wonderful blessed Christmas.... Cathy from Seattle..,.......
Hi Cathy!!! Thanks for watching, happy hunting!!!!!
Hello Sandra - I respect your honesty. You are of the same school as me………What goes around comes around sooner or later 😉.
Thank you. ☺️
I love that bracelet with all the stones❤
Thanks Charlene!
You find the best stuff! I love seeing what you find.
Aw!!! Thanks for that. That hair jewelry with the letter is so amazing it actually makes me tear up a little bit. Cheers friend. Sandra.
We had an estate sale for our Aunt, she had tons of jewelry. We thought that we knew the difference between costume and real... a gentleman grabbed something and said, excuse me but can you come over here for just a minute... my sister went over and he handed her a watch and said I really don't think you should sell this before you take it to a jeweler... it turned out to be a very old Omega watch, and worth certainly more than the dollar we had it marked.... I thank God that he was so honest. My Aunts estate went to the batter women shelter... God only knows what good things we sold..😔.. oh well, the shelter received a VERY good check... TFS
This has never happened to me yet, but I like to think that if I ever found something worth A LOT of money, I would say something... trouble is, sometimes I don’t even know until I get it home and test it! Plus - my mom and I usually just “buy out” the whole table if things look old. That man was very kind that he told you that. People are wonderful (for the most part)! Thanks for watching!!! xo
Another informative video. Lady, you rock!
You rock! Thanks for coming! xo
That hair jewelry and story is cool 😎
Right! Thanks a million for watching. O
Some beautiful pieces Sandra! You won't be the first person I know that has gone through few of those presidium gem testers! They are so expensive too! Oh my
I know! They are very delicate and don’t last too long. I’m on my third!!! Ouch!
The first big chunky bracelet is the type they sell at bead shows. They are very expensive! I have one with gems and Ammonites set in silver. It’s so nice to know you are kind to people, good karma!
Oh thank you! Glad you like my jewelry!!!
The sterling ring…Man Blowing Wind, Wind God? I find hair jewelry very interesting and I love that this set had the letter. I’ve not see a set before. So cool!
I know - WITH the note - I’ve never seen such a thing. So wonderful! Thanks for watching girl.
Hey, Sandy!! Time to binge watch!! Been gone way too long! ! ❤❤❤✌
Girlfriend! Good to see ya! Hugs, SANDRA
The hair jewelry is absolutely amazing!
Isn’t it??? With the letter tho!!!! Thanks for watching!!! So glad. xo
Love your stickpins😊
Thank you 😋
The DDD earrings are fabulous
Thanks Dana!!!!
You can self calibrate your presidium. Look up on TH-cam there’s a good video that shows you how to do it. There’s a little button on the right side that is covered by rubber cover. That may help calibrate your presidium. I also find if I move it around a lot it gets a little testy and I have to self calibrate it. It’s super easy. Love all your great finds! Bb I learn so much from your videos about different brands!!
Ugh I know. I will try it - I’m so irritated by how many of these have broken - it’s not cool!!!!!!!!!!! I have calibrated them before and will give it a shot. Hey! Thanks for watching!!!!! Hugs, Sandra
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter Hiya, also check the battery?... Steve...
Yup, but I’m plugged in this time. I’m so mad! This is my third or fourth one! Annnnnnoying!!!! Lol!
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter did you try using the button on the right side of the box. You have to open the little rubber cover. There are two holes, the one closest to the front of the box and you stick something pointy in and press it gently then it will produce a light. When it does that you put your probe on the calibrate disc and wait until it goes there and beeps. Then it will go another beep with a light to have you do the same thing to the glass disc and it will move the dial to glass the beep and you are done. hope that makes since.
Yes - I know - I will give that a try. I broke my last one by doing that. I’ll see if my hubby can do it - I’m disgusted with it right now.... lol. Thanks so much for taking the time to write. Hugs 🤗
I also have the crystal necklace and I have the matching earrings and flex bracelet they were my grandmother's
Everything is so pretty. The opal ring is my favourite.
It's beautiful. THANKS for watching. Hugs.
Oh my heart the stickpins!!!!! Love the swallow one!!! I collect stick pins as well and love it when you find things in the wild!!!,
Me tooooo! Try to check out my stick pins TH-cam video if you want - I show a lot of my collection. I appreciate you watching! Thanks! Hugs
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter oh I have!! Love them!
Okay I’m glad! I love the bird stick pin !!!! It’s so beautiful!!!! And In perfect condition too!!!!! Cheers!
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter I love your sense of humour and jist enjoy how thrilled u get for each piece! Im also a jewellery junky and love every piece I have!!!!! Love the ones with your Mom in the videos!!!!
I’m one of those people lol. Maybe we relate it to having a random hair in your soup or food.
I saw a brooch for sale with hair in it and thought what would I do with it? Throw the hair out? The thought of being a keeper to someone else’s history and DNA is very sad and overwhelming to me. I’m glad these items ended up with someone like you!
Thanks for the comments. I totally know what you mean. The thing that makes me saddest, is that these items aren’t in their families anymore... I feel the same way about old photos too. I guess some people don’t have anybody to give their stuff to. I am honored to be their keeper for now. Cheers!!!!
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter yes it is sad. I guess I do have a couple estate pieces maybe the hair just felt too personal to me 💕 I saved the stubble from a loved ones razor and it feels more personal than their ashes.
Take care
I love those squeeze earrings, cool design. Also the Zuni - sunstone is just so lovely!
Thank you! 😊
So many great items I can't pick just one. That Christmas tree pin and the rest of things in that red box was pretty cool. Love that Gerrys dog with green collar and eyes.
So glad you watched my video - thanks - I love everything tooooo! Hugs.
Love the history with the set! People these days just don't have the same hearts as they did back then!
It’s crazy. I’ve never seen paperwork with hair jewelry like that. It is my honor to be their keeper. Thanks so much for coming to my channel. Love, Sandra
You have been a very busy girl!
You’re right! I love it so much!!!! Thanks for watching, as always. Hugs.
I just got a ring from uncas and I didn’t know what that signature was so thank you!
So glad I could help. Sandra.
Hi there, the pair of blue stone earrings - the stone looks like Larimar of a low grade. Larimar is found in the Dominion Republic. I believe it is all mined out now.
The tie pin has banded Agate in it.
Hope this helps. Also, that Italian horn, l think it is rose gold, te sst it.
Yes, it is very helpful. Thanks so much Janice!!!
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter My pleasure "Saucey Pickle" lol..
I have 2 pairs of the Vargas earrings that are cameo, one is black in color and the other is red in color 💗
I love Vargas -- some really pretty stuff, right? Cheers.
Absolutely right 💚
New subscriber. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Thanks for subbing! So glad. Hugs, Sandra
Really enjoyed this video!
And wanted to say I love your ethics!
Thanks so much. This thing, life and all that, should be FUN! At least whenever possible. Yeah, we try to be good humans, right? Hugs.
The guy on the panel bracelet is Jesus Christ our Redeemer and Savior My Love lol
Loved all this jewelry!!!!!!
Thanks for the info!
Alot of my vintage sterlings charms stick with a magnet that are on my charm bracelet.
I have the disco ball earrings they were my mothers
That bracelet! @ 2:20
Right???????? I’m in luv! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sandra.
You not being cut throat is why you do so well. Karms. I love it.
Ahhh maybe - maybe not! I could probably make way more money, but I truly, truly wouldnt have as much fun... thanks girlfriend! Hugs.
How do you store the jewelry that you keep for your own personal collection? Love your channel, am learning so much from you. Thank you.
Jel, keep an eye out -- I will be doing a video on that within the next month or so. Cheers, Sandra.
The detail and craft in the hair jewelry is amazing. If we will wear human hair wigs why not jewelry? I would wager the ring represents the "Green Man" which is usually comprised of leaves, vines etc, think Father Nature, who represents rebirth and spring. Well half way through and I am impressed and going to subscribe. Back in the 60's and early 70's, those little earrings were all we wore as only "trashy" girls had their ears pierced. My mother about died when I finally got mine done at age 26, but she got over it. Three Presidents had Scotties, these are probably from President G W Bush. Yes freshwater pearls, you can always tell by the somewhat oval shape and the striations. I almost love those better than the perfectly round ones. Cleaners used for alcohol inks might remove without causing damage. Yes that is an Agate, almost looked like Blue Lace but I really don't see the bluish color.
Thanks for all the info Randy and thanks for coming to my channel!! Cheers!!!
Those Gem Testers are so Finicky but you can send it to Presidium Gem Testers for repair for about $30 But you have to send it to Singapore and it takes about a month
Ok, good to know, thank you!
21:40 those earrings are wonderful
They're good ones, right? Thanks so much for watching. Hugs, Sandra.
Hello Sandra. The intricacy of the mourning jewelry is astounding! The person whose hair it was must have been greatly loved. Interesting finds, especially the charm bracelets. If the opal ring is real, that is quite a find. When a person is honorable, there is no fear of karma, especially since she's a b h!!! Lol Hope to see a lot more videos soon. 💝 Veronica
Veronica, thanks for the lovely comments. Hugs, Sandra
Woven hair has been given as tokens or to mourn loss dating back to the 1500’s. That being said, your pieces look very Victorian ❤️
Yup. Mine are Victorian for sure -- I'm so happy I have them!!!!! And WITH their paperwork - love it! Thanks for watching Dana!!!!! xo
All hair jewelry interests me, as it cannot be easy to work with to achieve such controlled results. Also as to the prevalent aversion to it, I wonder if those same people realize how much higher end clothing is made from animal hair, though processed beyond much recognition as such.
Interesting point! Thanks for watching.
I’ve never thought Hair jewelry was gross ! But I know a lot of peeps do !
I know - me neither! But I do get it... Xoxoxo
@@TheFunkyPickleThrifter
Yea I get it too ! 🤓
But it’s not like it’s toenails - lmao!
THaT would be disgusting! Lol 🤢
Re: the ring. If no one has supplied you with the information yet may I? It is the north wind. Just Google that and you’ll see exactly what it is.
Ok cooooool! Thanks for that, I’ll check it out!!!!!
I’m puzzled as to why the family didn’t want to keep the hair and letter and pass it down?
I know. Apparently there is nobody left in the family? It is sad. Thanks for watching. xo
I have a necklace like the bracelet I can't figure out anything about it. I would love to send you a picture of it.
That gigantic one with the different colors? Well, I don’t know who made it or anything - but it is 925 - that’s all I know.... my email is iamthefunkypickle at gmail - feel free to show me! Cheers!
Silver man ring could be. The green man he is a Wiccan God of forests
Thanks for watching!!
The silver ring looks like Irish green man?
Ok cool - I’ll check it out. Thanks for that! xo
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏
Ring looks like a lion
You might be right about that. It’s like a surreal lion -- cool, right? Thanks for commenting. Cheers!!!
How could a family sell this???
I know, right?
Just sent you an email, Sandra!
Okay got it!!! Thanks.
