Mudlarking JEWELS From The Past On Treasure Beach

- This week we returned to treasure beach. We have been unable to visit for many months but at last we had the opportunity to mudlark in one of our very favourite places. It once again did not disappoint and we found many beautiful small objects with long and sometimes dark histories. Come with us and see what tiny treasures we find :)

#mudlarking
Watching you picking up beads makes me feel like a child again. One of my uncles once owned a little company that was founded by someone from Gablonz. After the war, all the persons with German ancestors had to leave Czechoslovakia. A larger group of them was brought to my hometown Kaufbeuren, in the south of Germany. They asked the allied forces if they could re-establish their industry here and were granted permission to do so. They founded a whole new district called “Neugablonz” (New Gablonz) and successfully re-started their businesses.
When I was a kid, in the 80s, I loved playing in my uncle’s business. My aunt always had a bucket under her desk where she collected leftover, wonky or damaged beads for us kids. it was a real treasure for us.
Sadly, by that time, most of the companies were not producing glass beads anymore. They had switched to cheaper synthetic material (it’s taboo to say plastic but that’s basically what it is). Today, they are either importing jewellry or producing something totally different (parts for the automotive industry for example). It is a shame as Neugablonz was the biggest re-settling of businesses form Gablonz. There were others in larger German cities which still today produce high-end jewellry.
The orange flower button looks very familiar to me. I do remember a necklace with these flowers (in blue). They were arranged like a spiral so that you never saw the back. Maybe they were just using up buttons but I think these flowers were in fact beads. Buttons would have a longer "neck" and wouldn't be so flat at the back as buttons usually have a loop at the back.
The red odd shaped beads could have been used to mimic red coral. But that's just a guess.
Have a lovely week!
Thank you so much for all that information, I have pinned it so others can read it :)
What a cool thing to have grown up around. Did you keep any of the beads she gave you? That's just so neat! Thanks for sharing!
@@sherriesmith2587 Thanks Sherrie. Yes, I still have some of my treasures. And my mom still has the necklaces I made for her when I was a kid. One of my favourite childhood memories is watching my grandma making necklaces. When she made a mistake and there was one bead too much an the thread, she did not go back but took pliers or a hammer and crushed the superfluous bead.
They say the world cannot be flat because cats would’ve knocked everything over the sides by now. Sunny is quite the cat!
I absolutely loved watching you find all the 'jewels today and could have watched you all for much much longer, wishing I was with you. I was looking at all the rocks and other interesting items which could have been something at one time or another beyond the finds you videod and could imagine my own family diligently searching in the sand, dirt, mud etc as we used to once. Thank you so much for your marvelous videos.
Your videos really are just amazing. I can't believe all the beads you found this trip! I wonder if many of them came from one person who threw out a bunch of old jewelry that was no loner in style, and now the beads are eroding out of that one spot in the dump.
So many things that made me so excited for you in this video - all those beads! The stoppers! The Bartman eye! The beautiful lion pot! The cow! I had to laugh at the doll crotch. 😂
Thank you for letting us enjoy the trip with you.
Haha It is a strange cat trait :)
@@sharonatkins8117 Thank you so much, I am glad you enjoy our videos :)
@@shannahenk1655 London barges used to dump rubbish here. This particular spot is where the beads must settle :)
The Neiger Brothers’ story is so tragic.
The sheer number of lives lost during the Holocaust is soul-numbing. And the talent and gifts that each person possessed or could have possessed was lost, too. The loss of the Neiger brothers alone almost erased their legacy. Thankfully, at least, the beads still exist as a reminder of them...
I was just reading an article by an Australian woman about her learning about their story. Their jewellery was sold around the world during their lifetime and, in a way, that has allowed their story to continue.
It is very important to keep there legacy and story alive!
I'm an old man but wouldn't it be lovely to skip joyfully like Oscar and hold my mother's hand again.
Yes it would! I am now 72 and miss skipping joyfully with out a care in the world.
I still skip every now and then and I don't care that I am 67 or what people think when I do it. Mostly they smile or giggle at me and that suits me just fine.
@@marshall517 good on you
He does love to skip haha :)
I think I may try skipping myself :)
Who could not feel better after seeing Oscar's lovely smile/grin.
Soooo, the flat round blue bead is called "chrysoprase glass disk". The yellow flower is a "flower rondelle bead" from Occupied Germany late 1940s. The kinda heart shaped bead is a "German Vertebrae". The brown cone type one is old and rare, it is a "pressed chocolate color tulip bead". The last looks like a dragon head sideways. Blessings from Washington State.
Wow thank you for that information! I will really have to remember those names! :)
Love thr flash light lens or I think you call them torches? What fun....
Clay marbles. ... not stones
Is it still cold there...???
My grandmother told me about those glass rings. They were beads and had large holes because they were meant to be used with laces or ribbons.
Message for "Mum" (sorry don't know your name) May I say what an incredibly brilliant job you and your partner have done in bringing up a fantastic family. Your children are a credit to you both. I love how you all talk and interact with each other. Not enough praise goes to parents that are doing it right. XXX
Well said and I totally agree. Watching in Oklahoma. USA, Barb
I totally agree, beautiful family ❤
I love how it's a family outing.It's wonderful to see kids doing something wholesome!And of course Sunny just makes this video more wonderful.
Thank you so much :)
@@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers yw
If I found that beach you'd be hard pressed to ever remove me!!!!
Simply a wonderful rainbow of found beads! And there comes Sunny......*pushes everything off the board*
Haha he has no respect :)
Oscar has the most beautiful smile in the world.
He always seems to find, something so interesting. Never know how you find the tinyest, beads
I agree but I maybe a bit biased haha :)
Kate is the tiny bead queen my eyes are just too old haha :)
I can say with almost full certainty that the paint pan with W&N on it is Windsor Newton, which is a great art brand that's still around!
This video was AMAZING!
Thank you so much ,yes it is Windsor and Newton :)
You found a rainbow! Just amazing. I had to laugh when you stopped to record Sunny cat snoring. I was hearing it in stereo because my husband was snoring beside me! Love to see, and hear you both become so excited about what you find. It's just so joyful! 💜
Thank you so much! We had to record him because his snoring was drowning our round up out haha :)
I just love Sunny cat's snoring! LOL
The bobble that says "Exide" , that is how the Borrowers spell "exit" so you can put it over a dolly doorway LOL :) The lead cow could be the beginning of a Mudlark nativity scene. :)
I love both those ideas! :)
Well done, Oscar. That's a fabulous find!
Fantastic video. I am recovering from a stroke and enjoying your videos to brighten my day. 🥰
I hope you get well soon :)
This was such a fun video to watch. Love to see Oscar skipping towards the beach in the intro. Also such an awesome clay pot he found. This means this might be your lucky beach.
He seems to want to skip everywhere haha :)
It amazing to me , no matter which mudlarker location i watch, be it beach , river, canal,marsh you all find BEADS AND BUTTONS . Everywhere!!!!
It is amazing when you look really closely what you find, oh yes beads and buttons haha :)
Oh my goodness listen to that snore!! I have a couple of dogs that snore like that! 😂😂
I, myself snore like that!
@@jodybishel6556 hahaha :)
yes bartman. many overlooked beads and buttons
We will have to return to find them :)
Sunny snores SO loudly, he’s hilarious 😆 x
It is so loud haha :)
Ohh my goodness, skipping along,,,all of a sudden I was brought back to childhood and remembering how I loved to skip...what a lucky child of yours to still be living in that wonderful time in his life
Oscar does love to skip. I hope they were good tears not bad :)
@@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers they were good tears and some were melancholy for the loss of childhood times
Oh that cow!! 💚
It has such a cute face :)
Lovely finds.
What about that black with red glass rod thing Kate found? 24:51
I am not sure she brought it home :)
What an absolute amazing treasure trove that beach is! So many beads in one day - I would not want to leave that beach ;) Looks like you'll be reaching 10K soon Kate and Fleur !!! Fingers crossed x
Thank you! We have to drag ourselves away at the end of the day. If only our bodies did not give us away (our backs really suffer) :)
it amazes me that you go after tiny beads yet the most beautiful periwinkle sea glass is there and you ignore it. It is killing me, I can find these beads in my granny's 1920's box of buttons and beads but this periwinkle glass at 55:17 to the left is just gorgeous.
Don't mind me I'm just an old lady child of the 60's. And you my girl with the green nail polish are absolutely beautiful. So natural, with your lovely hair, mindset, soul, nails, you are just lovely the picture of what is beautiful and I guess your mother has made you this way too. Thanks to you and your lovely mom for bringing beauty to the earth, and I don't even mind if you bring up some mundane looking bead.
Cute Little naughty Sunny
😻😻😻😻🐈⬛🐾❤
Great job Oscar on your beautiful French find!!!
Maybe use for Sunnys
Water? I just love the Lin heads!!
That is a nice idea :)
Thank you for taking me along with you two along the beach of beautiful little beads and things. Love the cow❣️Very entertaining, Girls‼️You and Mom make a good team💞
Fleur and Kate wow wow wow what an awesome bead day, love that Sunny, great find for Oliver. ❤️from Ontario Canada 😁👍👍👍
Thanks so much!
I love every bead so much because each one of them carries a memory of the person that owned them. My imagination wanders through what their lives could have looked like and how those tiny beads ended up on a beach for you to find. It brings tears to my eyes thinking about it. I wonder what beads of mine will be discovered on a beach someday ❤ Thank you so much for bringing everyone along on your adventures! It truly makes my day.
That pate dish with the lions on it would make a regal dish for Sunny!
That is a lovely idea :)
Wonderful video...those beads!! 😍... cats!! I put the large pasta serving bowl on the counter top, took the spaghetti over to the sink to drain, turned back around to find one of our cats actually sitting in the bowl 🤭😸
Hahaha that sounds about right :)
Another trip into the magical world of kit and caboodle . Peace and joy reigns supreme.
Thank you Paddy! :) x
Hugs from Oregon ❤️. Thanks for making my Sunday a bit more interesting.
Thanks for watching! :)
What an amazing place the whole family is there and having a great time beautiful finds nice roundup sunny is hilarious
Thanks so much :)
The neiger brothers jewellery was astounding . Well done.
We want to go back and find some more haha :)
Wow, what a wonderful beady day!
It really was :)
The red tear drop is a bead, I can't think of the name right now, but it starts with a B. Love Sunny cat knocking ur treasures to the floor. Such a personality. Thank u again for entertaining us.
Briolet
Thank you :)
@@wandaburch9093 Will have to look that up:)
@@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlersI misspelled its briolette
Those round rocks may have been marbles. Years ago I found one round rock in the ditch in front of Halderman School (near where I parked my car to be able to substitute teach there). My son grabbed it as soon as I got home.
I also found round small clay marbles under the floor of a house that we were helping tear down in Sharpsburg, Kentucky. Daddy told us that the clay marbles, and round stones, were used to play games with by children when he was a boy.
You should have brought the round rocks home.
I am hoping they were actually just round rocks but who knows :)
Какие пуговки клёвые! 🎉🎉🎉 Бусинки красные, 🔥огонь!
Wonderful finds!! Love it when Oscar and Sonny join in🐱🧑👍
Absolutely love your channel. Thank you for sharing🤗👍
Thank you so much :0
Sunny and my Garf were both snoring away at the same time. A duo of cat-snorers.
Hehe 💤 💤🐾🐾I bet Your Blooms have been Beautiful 🌸🌸🌸I have Asian Nanking Cherry Trees along the fence line! This year we’ll have some cherries! 🍒
That must have been loud haha :)
Another name to add to the green R bead, Roberta . It's my Mother's name. She is 91 and is a Covid 19 survivor . Happy Mother's Day week-end to all Mothers !!.
Happy Mothers day to your mum :)
Sunny 🐈 is definitely part of the team❣️Purr~purr~purr...💟
I use to work in beads and buttons (I still have a lot of buttons) when I had better eyes. Try using a hat pin or a sewing needle to pick up the seed beads when you find them. You can carry one (hat pin or threaded needle) somewhere on you coat, shirt or sweater to help you pick up small items.
We did that a couple of times but we have terrible memories and always forget something haha :)
When Sunny was heard snoring by my dog Henry Henry turned his head back to look towards phone. So cute!
The little white peice with holes I think is something that thin wire is placed in to attach to electrical device.
Thank you! You are the only person to put a theory forward about the little white piece.I appreciate that greatly! :)
I love the way you two request a find,then it magically appears!
:):):)
I could watch you just finding beads, all day long.❤️
If you are in to miniatures you can make so many doll house items with your great finds. Keep having fun.
We love making miniatures we have a mudlarking dolls house, we made a film about it :)
WISH I WERE THERE WITH YOU GUYS.. I ENVY YOU FOLKS...
:) :) :)
I love Oscar's little pot with the lion heads on either side! You had some wonderful finds on this one! It's always nice to see Sunny Cat, too:)
Thanks so much! 😊
Snoring cat, so sweet! Made my day!
What beautiful colours those beads are the beach keeps on giving,thank you for a great video.
I love the array of colours found on this beach. Maybe we should call it Rainbow beach instead of treasure beach :)
Awe, that purring baby, love it
Thanks :)
Seeing all the doll pieces laid out on the table top reminded me of a Picasa painting. Maybe you could put together a 3D mosaic picture along that line. Use old pieces of wood from the beach as the frame and a canvas to glue all the pieces on to it. You have such a collection of dolls faces and bodies.
Love Sunny! I could listen to him snore all day. I think Oscar’s terrine was my favorite.
a cracking video from sunny snoring and purring and playing football with the amazing amount of beads and what a family,s day out as sunny would say a purrrrrfect day and a purrrfect video :-)
Glad you enjoyed it :)
The history of Neiger Bros. Is so touching. One of my favorite episodes for sure. Nicely done.
Thank you very much I am so glad you enjoyed it :)
I wonder why there are so many beads and the like on that beach. Is there an old dump nearby ? I’ve never seen a beach with anything but sand and shells. LOL
What a wonderful day you ladies had !! 🥰🌼
I wondered the same thing
There used to be a rubbish dump all along this coast. i think this particular spot is where the beads congregate :)
The little broken face that you found would be sweet peeking through the window of the doll house with a bit of window dressing to hide the bits that are missing. You could do something similar and have her peering at a fairy scene through a hole in a tree. What a wonderful day mudlarking! Oscar's pate crock was a nice find. I think Sunny is sad that there was no pate to be found!
That is a lovely idea! :)
Thank you for the poignant history on the Niger bothers beads and their tragic end. Truly a needful lesson for us all. Amazing work, theirs.
T ruly amazing all your finds!! Just stunning!!
My fave, I must say, is the cow head!
Your kitty is so cute!! Live his fuzzy paws! 🥰 ...snoring and purring...
Love Sunny snoring, beautiful finds, lovely end to a Sunday.
Thank you so much :)
Great day! Oscar well done on that French!
:) :) :)
omg those lil kitty snores were so cute!
Oh wowwww!! I found a bead exactly like the green one you thought was uranium glass, but mine is blue 😍 x
:) :) :)
I loved this video, so many cool finds. Sunny snoring sent me into a fit of giggles. My cat snores as well. My favorite thing was that awesome piece of wood Kate found. I love those paint pots too. Great video. Thank you for getting me though a very uncertain time in my life. :) Diana.
I am glad we can help in some way. Thank you so much :)
Those beads are the best. That was cool.
My favorites are the cow and Oscar's lions.
The animals :)
I Love Watching the Love of Mother and Daughter the Lens is from a Bycycle Lamp Much Love
Great video and you found some lovely things thanks for sharing with us. Take care and stay safe and well x
Thank you :)
Your cat, Sunny, really made me lol today 😸
He makes us laugh a lot haha :)
Lovely bead bonanza! 😊 Also, it was lovely that you talked about and remembered the Neiger brothers.
Thank you! 😊
Oh I'm thrilled for you all to be back on your beaches!!!! It is such a joy, to see and hear your excitement because of a special find!!! God Bless your week!!!!
Thank you so much :)
The orange bead at the end with the metal reminds me of a rosary my mother had.
Fantastic film, Oscar, Sunny, it's all perfect. Fleur, your strange red bead...looks like a pair of lips!
It does haha :)
Fantastic video. Bless you for taking us along again xxx
Thank you :)
The glass circles are called "donut beads". The Nigel brothers work is so beautiful. There is a site called Etsy and I believe they have some of the Nigel brothers beads for sale. Beautiful weather worn beads make for a necklace with character.
Sea worn beads are the best :)
Looking forward to seeing what you do with the lens. Oscar...nice find! Next stop...10,000!
We seem to have been trying to get to 10 for awhile haha :)
I just adore your channel ,you live a life to be treasured,so very very lucky and fortunate
Thank you so much!
All I can say....is.... I Adore ALL of you to pieces! What an amazing day you had! And super adorable when Oscar was reading the French! I was Beaming from ear to ear!!
And I Loved the surprise of the Czech bells and a young Kate at end! Keep up the Awesome videos! I can hardly wait for each Sunday to sit and fly away into your world.....
LOVE YOU GUYS! ❤️❤️❤️
BE Well Be safe Be Happy!
💕Carol from Canada 🇨🇦 xox 💕
Thank you so so much! :)
Wonderful beads and history! Love the bear eye!
Thanks so much!
;lovely lark ladies.. Sunny thought the lens was a ball so he batted it with his paw,,, very cute,
Some super finds . so many cool beads . stay lucky..V..
Thank you Victor, stay lucky too :)
@@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers Thank you..
The domed lens is definitely from a torch. My wife's aunt has one with an identical lens dating, she thinks, from the 1950's.
Love watching your adventures and your enthusiasm.
30:28 That's a rare vintage lightsaber (from before metal was invented!) ;)
I can see it!
:) :) :)
The cat snoring made my day! Love it!
He is so loud haha :)
Nice bead day! Such great history told from just a piece of bead! Beautiful lion head bowl found, great Job! Stay safe💖🤗👍
Thanks so much!
Thankyou so much for taking us on your beady journey. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I am addicted to your programs. XX
Thank you so much!
There are some beautiful pebbles/stones there to.
There are so many things to see :)
This is one of my most favorite videos! Thank you!
Wow, thank you! :)
Those round rocks that weren't beads should have come home for sunny.Fabulous group of beads.
Thank you :)
My husband said you should make a frankendoll and attach the foot you found to the handless arm.
We will certainly be doing that :)
So many beeeeds! ♥️
Thank you :)
"EXIDE" might be the screw top off a car battery where you used to pour distilled water into each cell. There were usually 6 on the battery 😊
It definitely is. I looked it up before coming to the comments and found it on a glass battery.
@@Little_Red_Riding_Hoodlum a glass battery, wow, thanks Kerri 😊👍
I would love to find one :0
Sunny was so funny today. He teally wanted to be part of your buttons and beads! My cat Hoodlum played fetch all the time I was trying to watch you, so its a cat day. Thanks for sharing your amazing finds!
Cats can demand your full attention in spectacular ways haha :)
Wow!!
What a great beach for beads, buttons and Sea Glass!!!
I love the doll pieces.
So much fun!
Thanks 😊
Thank you 🤗
I get so excited when I hear you both find so many treasures.
That is such a sad story I feel privileged to have enjoyed their work with you. ❤
Right at the end, in the clip from the Czech Republic, I thought I was looking at Fleur at first, and then when she turned I realized that it was a younger Kate! Like Mum, like daughter.
Great finds ladies.
Thank you :)
Beautiful mother of pearl flower button perfect for you Fleur!! To match your beautiful name 🥰👍
Love this video another great beach hunt!!
Ahh, thank you so much 🤗
