How do these even still exist, I would love to know who owned these and where they were originally purchased,I have never had this happen ever before in my life,but when you showed the cleaned up treasures, I literally felt a physical reaction, I laughed,it's like butterflies in your stomach,oh my gosh!!! What an amazing find,it just kept getting better and better.
GSH had some lovely items. Isn't it funny how beautiful everyday objects were, because things weren't just disposable back then? I like to go "mud larking" in an old bottle dump from the 20s near my home. The things I find discarded just amaze me. I proudly display that 100 year old trash too 😁
Yes!! My parents always had the left over bathroom tiles wash up on the side of the house each year. Who ever built the house buried the extra tiles in the 70’s. I loved finding them, like it was gold.
The design and weight of each piece of glass are phenomenal. The silver polished up beautifully. What a find! That must have cost a pretty penny back in the day!
What a great find! The box looks so flimsy and no bubble wrap. So glad this beautiful things found you. Please do a video on how you embellish some of them.
How beautiful ❤️ I hope you can find some history on them - wouldn't that be something?! Excited to see what you fill them with or how you embellish each one. Thank you for sharing 😊❤️
beautiful assortment of bottles. the shapes, the lids, all so unique. i like putting dainty dried flowers from my garden in old bottles. you will find all kinds of uses for them.
What a glorious collection of vintage vanity jars and the 2 brushes!!!! I am totally blown away!!! Awesome buy. Love how you displayed the brush set too.
What a gorgeous set displayed. I was excited as you to see the stoppers and the detail on the silver and the thickness of the glass. I need a trophy like that!! Stunning and you never disappoint with your treasures! Tfs ❤
Mappin and Webb are a very good company in the UK. They have a branch of their shop in my home town opposite the market square. It's where my husband bought my engagement ring.
Beautiful collection. Mappin & Webb are a very high end Jewellers & Silversmiths, they have held a Royal Warrant since 1897 & are silversmiths to Her Majesty the Queen. Whoever G.S.H was someone of wealth & standing
I like how you displayed the brushes. There is an interesting assortment shapes I look forward to seeing how you embellish them. I was at a shop recently and there was a box of brand new charcoal I thought of you. It's the shop where things are really cheap. I picked up 3 bottles there they don't have their tops. One is a crinoline lady and I searched online and found one for $25 with its top. The other is a Dutch man and a bird both are without lids.
What an awesome collection you scored! I love that square piece. My favorite of the lot. How lucky are you that stoppers came with some of the pieces. Nice video. I'm happy for you and the addition to your collection.
Oh my gosh! What a spectacular find and purchase! You have done it again! My sense is possibly a British company? I can’t wait to hear all about your detective work. Fabulous!! I’m so happy for you!
During the Victorian period leather travelling cases held bottles with sterling and silver plated lids. The leather case was made to hold particular bottles for lotions and potions. Many lids were monogrammed. It's unusual to find the ground glass stoppers I n the bottles because they were lost. The bottles were filled at home with the toiletries of the owner. Ladies were very particular about their scent! I believe gentlemen had a version as well.
on the shaker, just try pulling the top straight up. It should come off since the the part with holes in is screwed on. did you know that silver plate tarnishes in rainbow colors but sterling only tarnishes in black?🙂
Don’t do the boiling water it’s too corrosives especially for something like the brushes. I ruined my flatware by that method. Enjoy hand polishing and take your time getting them done and wear a pr of gloves to save your hands and nails. Nice purchase.
What an amazing haul! The last bottle with the smooth lid was assayed in Chester. Please tell me if you find any with J & R G on them. They assayed their silver in Chester but were based in Birmingham. They are brothers of my 2x great grandfather and I have a few of their pieces. Vanity items are some of their more common pieces.
I would be in heaven opening that box and seeing all these great bottles love them...so much fun cleaning them up and discovering their markings...where did you get them ebay...
What a spectacular find. Every piece is lovely! I use aluminum take away/disposable pans, much baking soda and boiling water to clean seriously tarnished pieces. I follow up with Cape Cod polishing cloths. It cleans really well and leaves a lustrous shine. Cape Cod cloths also have a pleasant scent. 🙋♀️
I can imagine a young woman receiving these items at Christmas. Back in the day better department stores had special collections like this on display . Can you imagine a young hubby looking for a special gift for his bride ? Then having it monogrammed at the jewelers . Things of quality were used and treasured . Passed down in families but in this case maybe no relatives to give it to .
Sorry. I have neuropathy so incompletes happen! I believe the cases were often given as wedding gifts. I've only seen one complete in mint condition and it was English. $$$$

I know exactly what you mean 😊
I know. These are amazing and so beautiful. I would also like to know who owned them and I hope she gets more info and shares it with us!+
Mappin and Webb is still going today here in the uk , I knew it was M&W instantly, you have so many beautiful things xxxx

@@TarnishedTreasures1 Oh that would be so fun. I'd be finding a way to make a project 😂
What a great set! That bottle with the frosted spot is wonderful. The stoppers are so cool.
I can’t help but notice that GSH stands for “Good Sense of Humour” in lonely hearts ads. Mappin and Webb is a good quality make.
My heart jumped with yours when I saw the first stopper! How cool!
The design and weight of each piece of glass are phenomenal. The silver polished up beautifully. What a find! That must have cost a pretty penny back in the day!
I was thinking the same. Whoever owned these paid a lot for them.
What a FABULOUS deal you got! That's an entire collection. I'm so happy for you!
Absolutely beautiful 🤩. TFS
WOW,WOW,WOW.😍..What an absolute fabulous haul. You certainly cleaned them up well.The display looked so beautiful ❤
Wow, what an incredible find! So many beautiful pieces! 😍 and the set looks so good in that gorgeous trophy!!
You won the lottery again this week.💯
They sure don’t make things like they used to! A beautiful collection 😊
I love seeing the artisans hand in the work.
What a great find! The box looks so flimsy and no bubble wrap. So glad this beautiful things found you. Please do a video on how you embellish some of them.
I agree. It was barely taped shut, so I was happy that they came intact. It was fed ex, so well done handling them fed ex!
How beautiful ❤️ I hope you can find some history on them - wouldn't that be something?! Excited to see what you fill them with or how you embellish each one. Thank you for sharing 😊❤️
I looked last night. I added the info at the end of my newest video.
beautiful assortment of bottles. the shapes, the lids, all so unique. i like putting dainty dried flowers from my garden in old bottles. you will find all kinds of uses for them.
What a glorious collection of vintage vanity jars and the 2 brushes!!!! I am totally blown away!!! Awesome buy. Love how you displayed the brush set too.
WOW!!!
(The square one too)🥰
Fantastic haul of antique bottles, and it's always fun to see this stuff unboxed.
What a gorgeous set displayed. I was excited as you to see the stoppers and the detail on the silver and the thickness of the glass. I need a trophy like that!! Stunning and you never disappoint with your treasures! Tfs ❤
I really enjoyed this episode, thank you. Take care

That’s sweet!
this is an amazing find. I love everything you got. love the glass stoppers so much!!
You found a treasure trove of beautiful vanity bottles. Absolutely stunning group.
Beautiful, they all polished up really nice. Craft stores have acid in gel form with stencils if your considering etching the glass.
Such an amazing find! So thrilled it worked out! x
I believe that one jar said "Mappin & Webb" which I seem to remember is a well known company. Lovely.
Beautiful collection. Mappin & Webb are a very high end Jewellers & Silversmiths, they have held a Royal Warrant since 1897 & are silversmiths to Her Majesty the Queen. Whoever G.S.H was someone of wealth & standing
I agree about GSH!
Wow!
Very nice collection.👍💕
This was wonderful!!
Amazing value!

I had my eye of the square as soon as I saw the listing.
Amazing collection 😍
Ahhhhh!!!! Beautiful!!!!! Loved this💖⚘
WoW an incredible haul!!! What gorgeous vanity bottles with glass stoppers ~ l'm thrilled for you 💞💞
Beautiful 🥰
Oh my gosh! What a spectacular find and purchase! You have done it again! My sense is possibly a British company? I can’t wait to hear all about your detective work. Fabulous!! I’m so happy for you!
Yes Mappin and Webb is a British company, still in existence.
What an amazing find. So lovely!!!
So beautiful!! Love your videos, I watch while I work from home :-) Greetings from Texas!
Hi and thank you!
All so gorgeous! Thank you for sharing.
Love it all.

It worked!!! Thank you
Gorgeous pieces!!!❤❤❤❤
These are so beautiful!!!
This haul was awesome.
Nice. You could not have chosen a better channel name btw😍
🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻
Just beautiful! Think what might have been inside maybe rose scent or jasmine the list goes on and on😊
Both sound good to me!
❤️

How interesting.
That’s so neat. It was really hard to decipher some of the makers marks.
Beautiful pieces!!! You just seem to have such great luck finding wonderful things! I love them all!
I would be in heaven opening that box and seeing all these great bottles love them...so much fun cleaning them up and discovering their markings...where did you get them ebay...
I was thinking the same thing, where did she get them?
Facebook Market place
Wow what treasures. I keep my medication in these kinds of bottles that are small and put Vicks and vaseline in the tiny ones on my vanity 😍
Wonderful finds. Thanks so much for sharing
What a haul. Unbelievable Those old bottles could have been on the wagon train or something
What a spectacular find. Every piece is lovely! I use aluminum take away/disposable pans, much baking soda and boiling water to clean seriously tarnished pieces. I follow up with Cape Cod polishing cloths. It cleans really well and leaves a lustrous shine. Cape Cod cloths also have a pleasant scent. 🙋♀️
Where do you buy the Cape Cod Polishing Cloths,
Yes, where do we find these cloths?!
What a great find, C. Doesn’t it make your mind drift away thinking how GSH received and used the set? Just lovely!
I can imagine a young woman receiving these items at Christmas. Back in the day better department stores had special collections like this on display . Can you imagine a young hubby looking for a special gift for his bride ? Then having it monogrammed at the jewelers . Things of quality were used and treasured . Passed down in families but in this case maybe no relatives to give it to .
In my mind GSH is a man! I always associate the striped pattern with men.
@@TarnishedTreasures1 Huh! So many accessory pieces . A real stylish dresser . Never thought of that ! 🙄🤣
I am thinking the initialed set is from the late 1880s and could have been given as a Christmas gift.
So beautiful!
Gorgeous
Amazing find!! Cannot believe the condition of this set and the amount of pieces!! Would love to know the age of this set!! Thank you for sharing!!❤❤❤
I’ve looked up a few of the English pieces. They range from early 1900’s - the 20’s.
👍😊
How lovely ! I am looking for a trophy and a French horn . Do you sell or collect?
I’m a collector
mappin and web are high end jewelers in London. I think Catherine of Cambridge has jewelry from there.
Wow!
What site do you look at online? Would Love to find a few of these.
Just Facebook marketplace
Thank you
Sorry. I have neuropathy so incompletes happen! I believe the cases were often given as wedding gifts. I've only seen one complete in mint condition and it was English. $$$$
Wow!!
GSH. Do you supposed they belonged to George S Halas, who started the Chicago Bears? Are you close to Chicago?
The seller shipped from Florida. Any famous Floridians with those initials?
Fantastic finds. Do you think the bottles came empty or were they filled?
I think empty and you could use them however you wanted. That’s my guess.
postscript: its called etching cream
My sisters MIL used to etch family names on wine glasses so everyone had their own personal glass!
@@TarnishedTreasures1 That was sweet and very personal. Your a great artist! I am sure you can etch something beautiful on the bottles?
I couldn’t help wondering if the bottles with corks were from a set for a male and the bottle toppers for women. Just a very uneducated guess.
