That’s called a “Tennis Bracelet”
I’m 78 yo lady who has one of these. Our mother had a REAL DIAMOND Tennis Bracelet and she wore it ALL the time. During her later years, she had it cut into 7 equal parts (7 diamonds per part) and had her jeweler make them into 7 -14k necklaces with vertical bar of diamonds 💎. She gave her 5 daughters and two DIL the necklaces for Christmas. We all wore them…and STILL do!
So nice of your mom to give you each a piece that you can wear. 💖 Thanks so much for watching my video! 😊
Why do they call it a tennis bracelet?
What a wonderful way to comemorate your Mom!! She certainly had a lovely idea,when she did that! ❤
@@marydoll9571 Martina Navratilova wore such a bracelet during a tennis match and lost it on the court. She found it again. Since then, this type of bracelet has been called a "tennis bracelet".
Your mother sounds like a loving 1st class lady. What a lovely mom.💕
Yay a new to me unboxing! I finally tried my luck with a Goodwill jar recently and found a ghastly tangle of 95% complete trash, hiding 3 sterling chains and one lovely little delicate 14k chain in the middle of the horror. 💎
Woo hoo! That's always a wonderful find!! I do tell people most thrift stores don't want to deal with tangles, and sometimes there's treasure in there!! I appreciate you watching! 😊💖
Thank you for moving right along with no off topic talking!
😂You’re welcome! I appreciate you watching! 💖
New sub. I used to resell on ebay. I was hospitalized fror a month and had to stop. I have a whole room full of jewelry. I have to have a yardsale. If I die and still have it my sons will toss it all. Then I will haunt them. Lol.
I’m so sorry to hear you were in the hospital for a month! I hope you’re doing better now. Yeah, time to sell, other family members have no idea what they’re looking at when it comes to our jewelry stashes! Lol! I appreciate you watching. 😊💖
@@AliBorealis thank you!
I recognize a lot of that jewelry from the late 60s-70s. The bracelet with "Charles" on it was called an ID bracelet and the guys with give them to their gals if they were "going steady".
That's sweet, my how times have changed! Thanks for watching! :)
I wore my boyfriend’s ID bracelet in 5th or 6th grade in the late ‘60s. Speidel is pronounced “spy-del” with the emphasis on the second syllable.😊
ID bracelets were still a "thing " in the 80s. I don't know how common they are now, but Tiffany's is currently selling them still, as well as other manufacturers. Speidel still makes them. That one was given to a man by a woman. I wonder who they were.
My mom used to get gifts like that at her hospital over the years good memories love you Mom in heaven! 💜
Glad you have good memories of your mom. Thank you for watching! 😊

I love how you do your research and you share with us in the same video your findings
Thank you! I appreciate you watching’ 😊
Me too. No one else does it that way. I don't sell jewelry but loved your unboxing ❤
Me three! I came to comment and found others who feel the same. I'm subscribing too. New fan here!
The bird cuff is a unique vintage Asian Tibetan silver cuff bracelet etched with a bird.
Awesome, you’re the first one to comment on the bracelet! Had no idea about it. Thanks!
Hello, have you sold this cuff?
@@lauramanning6922 I still have it. If you’re interested, please email me. 😊 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
@@AliBorealis Tibetan silver being base metal and not " silver " at all. some has lead in it.
I love that you opened your mystery box live on your video! It was so fun to see the items first hand with you! Thanks for taking the time to tell us about each thing.😊😊😊
Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
Hi Ali,
This was really fun watching you open the box. I am someone who has worked with crystals, rocks and sem- precious stones. I thought you would want to know that there are many of these that warm to the touch, it depends on who is touching them. I love those glass earrings. Such beautiful facets cut into them. Thanks for sharing this box!
That’s amazing, I can see everyone is different so some people’s energy can warm stones, where most people can’t. Thank you for watching!! 😊
For my 10 year anniversary I got a Chinese quartz watch with a dead battery. Lucky Tina.
Oh my, that stinks! Thanks for watching my video. 😊
Really fun watching you unbox this jewelry. What a coincidence that I live an hour drive away from Brookville, PA. Jewelry doesn’t always to have great value to enjoy it. There were many pretty costume jewelry pieces in this box that I would wear - if I wasn’t allergic to metal darn it!
Thank you! So just gold and sterling for you? I appreciate you watching! 😊
I loved the Aquamarine coloured bracelet, the silver coloured 'evening' one. And the diamond and Amethyst Earrings. So pretty.
Same for me. Anything costume or with Nickel & I get blisters, welts, rash, skin turns green, ears infect... Only silver & gold. If it's 100% free some necklaces are ok.
Me as well, zinc nickel, brass, and a bunch of others. On the upside I've been married to a very generous man for 40 years and have quite a wonderful fine jewelry collection. I did start wearing rhinestone brooches a few years ago when a friend showed me how she puts a cotton pad on the underside of her brooches under her clothing and I've reallly been having fun with it
The double cross tie tack 10K, is Masonic, often given to honorary members. The 2nd piece of masonic symbol was put into a Bulova (different) box.
The one glove clip is in a Greek key pattern.
The turquoise costume ring is patterned after a Navajo wedding band ring, albeit faux.
The two heavy, sterling silver bracelets with the blue, purple colored stones inlay marked T/S. "T" us for Taxvo, location; and the "S" underneath is possibly markers mark. The second initial is often the artist's initial. They are probably a "Mother/daughter" set, or for siblings. Hope that helps.
Thank you for the information! Never thought of them being mother/daughter! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
@AliBorealis are these two cuffs still available? Im in TX 77551
First time watching your channel loved all the detail you gave love the description and the enthusiasm that you bring. You give such great good ideas on how to authenticate your jewelry where you get your jewelry boxes from and the idea of asking a jeweler to authenticate some stuff is really good
Thank you! I work hard to give a lot of good information and resources for all of my viewers. 😊
I agree with everything you have said
I’m 72 now and I had a necklace like the cross with the Lord’s Prayer in it. Loved it.
They are really special necklaces! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
You just gave away my secret come up.why would you give your source to the competition? Now your box will cost more.
They used to have a smorgasbord of jewelry odds and ends sold in jars at my local goodwill. I found so many 14k and diamond items but also plenty of interesting pieces for me to craft with. They have now discontinued putting these mixes to sell in jars because multiple times police had to be called to break people up fighting over them. They told me several times the jars ended up broken on the floor with tiny jewelry pieces scattered everywhere. This is why we can't have nice things. So unfortunate.
Whoa!!! That's crazy! Do you live in a big city? It's always a treat to pull out gold. Thanks so much for watching! 😊
I used to do this kind of customer service. We discontinued jars of ''donated jewelry'' at ours bc the MANAGEMENT was going thru it all either scoring it for themselves or posting on their giant Online store site. That was after they had increased ALL prices of every pc of donated item in the entire store LOL.
@AliBorealis It's a college town but definitely not overpopulated. It is extremely close to Atlanta, GA though so that explains it maybe lol. It's insane how such a rumor can spread to bring people who find it worth it to physically fight over this stuff! Just craziness. I very much enjoyed your video and am looking forward to checking out more when time allows. 😊
@@peacenik4168 So typical. Greedy people can't let others have their gamble at a few small gold pieces. That's terrible that employees do this before it hits the sales floor.
@@JadedBelle Yeah the current attitude of Greed is astounding... actually this was at the beginning height of Ebay auction madness. Ebay caused everyone to think they were gonna become millionaires selling their ''Mall Jewelry'' lol. The pcs of fine 14k, etc were usually accidently ''donated or had recently Fallen OFF a TRUCK''...ok...riiiiiight lol!
I just happened upon this video and love it! Old jewelry is my passion and i have quite a bit from my grandmother. Your personality is so fun & really down to earth. Very educational!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
Old jewelry I like that
I just appreciate that she isn't more interested in showing off the fancy long fingernails. I am a retired nurse and have had to show my fingernails at new job interviews. That one was pretty strict. Thanks for your video.
Thanks, I appreciate that you get why I keep my nails short and natural. I’m a respiratory therapist, and like an RN, our hands work hard in the hospital and get washed 50 times a day! Thank you so much for watching my channel. 😊💗
You can put eye glass sponge foam in the back of them ear rings . It protects the ear from hurting from the clip 🙋🏻♀️
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 😊
Love those amethyst and diamond 10 kt gold earrings ❤️
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! 😊
I worked with the guy that went to an estate sale and he bought all the books, and then those boots was a book that opened up, which he had a belief. He told me it was emerald cut diamond, and they told him it was his he bought everything. A very large diamond.
Wow what a find!!!!
Wow!! That's amazing! So many people hid jewelry and valuables in odd places. Good for him! Thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💞
Great video...and yes, the cushiony thing came with the earrings back in the day.
Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊
I found a Fendi bracelet in mine just for fun but it was sweet. I let my mom who’s 85 dig through the box and that was worth it
That’s very sweet to let your mom dig through it. I’m sure that made her day! I appreciate you watching. 😊
Hello Ali ,
Watching you unbox your jewelry treasures was almost as much fun as Christmas! You shared info about each piece and gave tips on what to do for unmarked brands. I like to make jewelry when my arthritis doesn't get in the way. I mostly string beads and findings or I will try to beadweave a piece of jewelry. I also enjoy thrifting in my little town. You never know what you will find while thrifting. Thanks 4 sharing.😊
The elephant bead goes on the charm bracelet. Looks like a Pandora bracelet.
Thanks for watching, I’m still learning about these style charm bracelets. Glad to know these are Pandora style. 😊
Much loved the bags they would sell in the stores every Wednesday. Way before the people taking in the donations got to cherry pick everything off the top of all that comes in. At least for just over a year we had some really good deals and my granddaughters have some beautiful jewelry.
I'm so glad you were able to get some nice things for you and your granddaughters before everything changed with thrifting. Sometimes I still find a bag or two with good stuff! Thanks so much for watching my channel! 💖
The cereal ring is so interesting!
Totally! It’s amazing what the piece turns out to be when I do the research! Thanks for watching. 💗
I enjoyed your video. I like how you included information regarding certain items, such as the history.
I’m glad you enjoyed it! I appreciate you watching. 😊
That was really fun. That fancy pendant is DEFINITELY a LOTR low cost item. Still very beautiful. Lots of other goodies. You got way more than you paid for it. I am pleased to have learned from your expertise and truly enjoyed your enthusiasm. I will definitely hit the subscribe button.
I so appreciate you subscribing and glad you’re enjoying my videos. 💗
Yep definitely is the Light of the Sylvan star worn by Arwen given to Aragorn >>>nerd
Tina could have passed away and her family didn't realise what it was. Just saying, that's how a lot of stuff ends up at goodwill.
That’s probably what happened. So many people don’t know what to do with things after a family member passed. Thanks for watching! 😊
That’s exactly what I was gonna get on her and say. Thanks!
I have watched storage locker and hoarding buys on CZcams and have seen this medical pin.
@@AliBorealis❤❤
Last November I was very rapidly dying and I hired someone to send my stuff to Goodwill, aside from things my family might want later. Surprise! I ended up recovering, but not before my jewelry had been dropped off. Someone who rescues class rings saw mine and put the clues together to try to find me -- and they did! They sent me the link and I asked Goodwill for my ring back. Goodwill refused because I couldn't remember what was inscribed inside even though other info could be verified. My ring sold for $10. I'm more attached to other pieces I've lost, but still...
I Thoroughly enjoyed your video. I especially loved how much care and effort you put into researching items. I thought this was very educational and informative. I can’t wait to watch more of your videos. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
@@AliBorealis Thank you for your kind words. I love to go thrifting and goodwill hunting haha! When I watch videos like yours it helps me to learn and keep an eye open and recognize those rare finds. I’m visiting my daughter in the Portland, Oregon area. She had twins so I came from Michigan to help for a year you’ve got me wanting to take a trip to Canada to see if I can discover any hidden treasures. I’ve actually stopped going to the Goodwill stores as I’ve found that they have really jacked their prices up so high it really doesn’t pay. Good luck to you. Oh I wanted to ask are an6 of the barrettes you have made out of Bakelite?
@@rommelbillman2872 I haven't come across any made of Bakelite, but I'll keep an eye out for you! :)
Well this unboxing really intrigued me. Wasn’t sure what I would see or learn. And I saw and learned a lot. So I subscribed. I certainly want to learn more.
I was really interested in the heart amethyst pendants.
First, my mother’s birthstone was amethyst and we, 8 children, all grew up loving purple stones and variations of purple tones in many other artifacts, furnishings. And my mother was born on February 14, 1924., Valentine’s Day. So hearts and amethyst have great sentimental value for me and many of my siblings.
Happy to discover you on New Years Day 2024. My mother would be 100 years young next month. She passed at 88 years young.
Peace and Blessings to you, Ali Borealis, and All! ☮️💟💍💎✝️
Wow, happy 100th heavenly birthday to your mom!! Thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💞
@@AliBorealis
I m looking forward to learning more of your jewelry journey and checking out certain items you may be selling from time to time.
Hello, Ali Borealis, and Happy New Year 2024! 👍🥰❤️
@@maggieekane7845 Thank you so much!! Happy New Year 2024! 😊💞
First time watching your Video, it's good and I like how you talking about each items and give info on them as well!! I loved the Purple Amathist heart ring you had, my birth stone!! I enjoyed watching your video and I liked your finds!!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! :) Everything is for sale. If you'd like the ring, please email me.....AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
⭐️⭐️18:20. It expands/opens to make a string of hearts ❤❤❤❤
45:00. Lord of the rings I believe it’s the Elvin pendant.
It sure does open! Yes, the Elven pendant called Arwen Evenstar (I’ve since researched it!) Thank you so much for watching! 😊💖
It looks like pandora bracelet that was made from sterling silver and most of the beads were sterling silver and you picked the beads cost around about $35 and up. It reminded me of the charm bracelets had when we we’re younger 😊
Hi, some were Pandora! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💞
I have a psndora bracelet I bought in Paris, and have a few charms.
That heart necklace is bomb!! It's so fashionable!!
The Brighton one? I think I still have it! Email me if you'd like it, I'll give you a good price. I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
O C Tanner is a company that makes corporate gifts for anniversaries. I used to work for a bank that gave out corporate anniversary gifts from them and I also paid the invoices for the purchases as I worked in Accts Payable. From what I remember the prices we paid on these gifts was costly. The items that were given to employees were charged at the current gold value rate .
Wow, thanks for letting me know! I appreciate you watching. 😊
FYI, Citrine is usually pronounced “ci-TREEN” = long “e” sound rather than long “i” 😊
Thanks for letting me know! I've been pronouncing it wrong for a while it seems, whoops! ☺I appreciate you watching. 💗
How much did you get if you sold them
@@sisterheid5586 I haven't sold them yet! Thanks for watching. :)
Stone is cold to the touch however once worn it becomes warm to touch. Suggestion, when you use scissors on video you should cut away from your body. The opening behind a stone or glass is to allow the light to shine through and for the natural material to breath. Single earrings are fun a lot of people will buy them because of having only one piercing or they are going to repurpose. Sweet Carton excellent win Brookdale is usually much more strict in their picking. Excellent for you today way to go.
Thank you so much for a very interesting video. I love jewelry and have just begun to learn more about it. I appreciate the information you shared.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
I’m glad CZcams recommended your channel to me. I love picking channels and never considered jewelry lots. I learned so much about vintage jewelry! I am not a jewelry gal myself so this was fun to watch. Definitely subscribing.
Thank you!! I actually don't wear jewelry either, if you can believe it! Several years ago I started working for an estate sale company liquidating house contents and they needed someone to learn how to sort estate jewelry. It's been quite a ride!! I appreciate you watching and subscribing!! :)
Just found this video! Loved going through the blue box with you. Learned a lot. I am new to all of this. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything.
You're welcome! And welcome to the jewerly unboxing club! 😊 I appreciate you watching my video.
😂 you are a hoot🎉 I love your enthusiasm ❤
I love your optimism & enthusiasm! Fun video.
I appreciate you watching. I try to make them fun! 🎉😊
WHAT KIND OF GEM TESTER DID YOU GET ? WHERE DID YOU FIND IT ? WAS IT A PRESIDIUM GEM TESTER ? THOSE ARE EXPENSIVE BUT WORTH EVERY PENNY.
@@anaidarivera6932 I bought a Presidium II tester from Amazon. They’re decent testers, and can be a little fickle sometimes. Thanks for watching! 😊
I collect Judith's cuff bracelets. They were mostly sold on QVC. Beautiful ring you found, Great find.. .....
Good Night world 🌹.
She makes really beautiful jewelry!! Thank you so much for watching my channel! :)
I am loving this box 📦
It just kept on giving! ❤
This video was done well: the knowledge of yours made it enjoyable. You had much 🎉voice! I’m home from a medical procedure and it gave me a few minutes of joy.
That was pretty awesome! Congratulations!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. 😊
This is super exciting for me, as I am the lead jewelry processor and lister for one of the ShopGoodwill districts in Ohio. Was super fun watching how our customers react to getting the treasures home :) Thank you for supporting out mission to help people prepare for , find and retain employment ! We appreciate your purchase !
Wow, I love that!! You guys do a great job sorting because more and more it's harder to find valuable pieces in these boxes! Lol :) I very much appreciate you watching my channel!!
I bought a goodwill box about a year ago total 40 some dollars with shipping… and I got a sterling silver cuff bracelet that was $1200 new and I sold it on eBay for $500 and it’s sold in 20 minutes. It was the last thing I took out of the mass of jewelry and it was black, so I cleaned it and there it was beautiful very thick sterling silver cuff bracelet. It was so fun.
@@Pampnaylor Wow!! That's a great score!! Every now and again the boxes are amazing! Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
@@Pampnaylor Several years ago, in a UK Charity shop, I bought a beautiful Silver colour bracelet. On it are carved birds and flowers. Then , attached to it, are more birds , butterflies and flowers. I paid £1.50 , about $2 at the time. I saw it was Sterling Silver, when I arrived home. Valued at £550. by a Jeweller. I kept it, as I love it so much I couldn't think of selling it. I wear it often 😊
Do you happen to sell the "jewelry for crafts"? I work in resin art and mixed media, and I'm always keeping my eyes open for things like this. Just came across your channel tonight and loved this video! I can't wait to watch more. New subscriber here! ❤
Really nice job editing your video, I especially like how you show detailed photos and additional information you found in your research. I love these getting these boxes too, but the auction prices are going up. I recently got one that was vintage and the majority was filthy and had verdigris on almost all pieces. Ugh. Keep posting!
Thank you, I’m happy you’re enjoying my channel! 💗😊 Yes, prices seem to be going up, which is fine for a good box, but so many have little value in them. Totally stinks to get a vintage box full of verdigris! ☹️
Prices are going up due to COGs - cost of goods...oh wait....ITS ALL DONATED!!🤔
@@fabulousfinds1045 Right!!?? They’re making a killing!
That’s so cool! And Puzzle piece jewelry will be easy to sell! WooHoo! Congratulations 🍾🎈🎉🎊
Goodwill is a charity. Let them know they need to train their sorters better.

Love the Disney house rack. The chunky rings go with a big chunky warm cowl neck winter sweater 😊 Thank you for sharing 🌻 💜 👩🍳
Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💞
That was a great experience to watch and I have learned some tips in the jewelry marking as well. Thank you.
Thank you! I try to be informative and share my knowledge. I appreciate you watching! 😊
If you see silver color under gold, you could test that metal as well to rule out sterling. Not super common but also not uncommon. Vermeil is one type of k gold over sterling silver.
Makes sense, I may try that. Thanks for watching! 😊
I'm Thankful for this 🙏 video I'm an avid goodwill collector 43 years and have gems like diamond's 💎 gold and silver and even costume jewelry and genuine pearls..I saw goodwill disclaimer that they have appraiser's now that look at all of the jewelry before they put on display...I just reorganize my necklace grid of my finds over the years and will cherish...I love to see what I'm buying in person 🙏 😊
They’ve become so much more thorough with vetting things, and once in a while I find something they missed. Glad you were able to scoop up 43 years worth of finds! I appreciate you watching! 😊
Hello Ali I just came across your channel and really enjoyed the video. I loved the way you went about explaining all that you received and giving information on the items. Those sterling cuffs were beautiful. You have a voice that is really fun to listen to.

Company anniversary pins. Very common in healthcare- some even include gems (ruby, diamond, etc).
Thank you for watching! :)
I was impressed how many pairs of earrings you got. I figured most of the earrings would be more singles. Good for you!
Thanks for sharing.
This was indeed a good box with lots of pairs! Thank you for watching. :)
That was fun! I worked for a company who gave out rings, pins and pendants with real gems for years of service. I have a few things that I need to double check.
Those were the days!! Thank you for watching! :)
Good to see a great hall...I love the wire products

Pandora bracelet big a few years ago. Some of those beads can cost a lot good luck
I like your format of video, very informative 🥰
Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊
I have that pearl heart necklace,it was in the 90s you buy an oyster and it comes with the necklace if you take it off the chain the heart basket opens you can use it for bigger stones too
Fun to watch. You might want to get a magnet to save time scratch testing.
That totally makes sense to magnet test first! I'm going to order one tomorrow!! Thanks for watching.
I had a Pandora bracelet. It was full of Stirling silver beads set with stones and I had quite a few Murano glass ones. It was stolen along with all my other jewellery when we had a burglary. I was heartbroken as I had things I inherited from my Grandma, some of which she inherited from her Mother. I claimed on the insurance but no amount of money can replace what I lost. I have been married for 52 years so there were a lot of birthday and anniversary presents.
I'm so sorry this happened to you. Somehow someone knew where I put my rings when I was cooking. Forgot to put them back on and when I got home they were gone! Nothing else but these 5 rings were taken. I was and still am heart broken. 😢
I'm so sorry to hear that! My heart hurts for you, that's such a loss. 😞 You're absolutely right, no amount of money can replace what you lost. I appreciate you watching my video. 💗
@@cathifamjourney469 That's so sad! Any idea who might have took them?
Wow! Congrats!! 😊
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 😊
That was a pleasure to watch 😊
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 😊
In Sweden the only gold that has value is 18 k.
I noticed that in USA 10k or 14 k is very popular.
I find a lot of other countries mostly sell 18K or even 24K. 14K is popular here, and 10K is a little more affordable. Thank you so much for watching my channel! :)
Higher gold content, wears more than a lower content. I had an antique turquoise 24 k gold ring, and had to stop wearing it, because it started wearing down.
The necklace at 1852 time stamp , is four hearts that has a magnet that holds it together into a different shape
Oou, I’ll have to look at it again! Thanks for watching. 😊
yes pads came w for comfort
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! :)
Loved watching this. Very interesting.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. 😊
If you keep saying how they don't check at Goodwill in Pennsylvania I bet you they will start checking a lot more closely.
Thank you! Yes, I'm sure if the right person sees this video, they certainly will! I resell, but I also try to give tips to other resellers who watch, to show what's possible. Maybe I shouldn't give so much away! I appreciate you watching. :)
I found a real dimond necklace at a thrift store for $7. I couldn't believe it, it even had the original tags on it.
😮wow! It’s crazy the stuff that sometimes gets overlook in thrift stores. Thanks so much for watching my channel! 💗

Too funny because I experienced the same exact thing at a salvation army, it was also in the box. Nice finds I purchased one box from goodwill and it wasn't bad. Always fun watching
Thank you so much for watching my channel! :)
On anything costume that looks elven, I try to incorporate something like “great for costuming, LARP, cosplay Renaissance festivals” in my description. Things with that description are some of my fastest sellers.
Ooou, I never thought about tagging words for cosplay!!! Yeees! That’s so helpful, will definitely do that on this one. 💖😊

The circular pendant with the charms inside, is a memorial necklace. The mom charm tells me that it’s someone’s mom who passed away. You can put charms that remind you of them, etc
Aww, that's very sweet! Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 😊💖
Ive spent probably $3,000 on just the jewelry boxes, 8 lbs, 18lbs etc, while ive made plenty back on slow cheap sales, they pick through the fine metals, gold silver etc. Like a CrackHead, digging through his couch. They advertise it as possible gold and silver. When they say "TANGLED" possible precious metals, while i get some silver, i've found several hundred clasp ends where the worker will grab the pliers and snip off the gold chains and necklaces and just left you with the ferrous metal clasps of no value, so much even with the fine costume jewelry, they will give you the "REJECTED" jewelry, TRIFARI but it has rust showing. Its things like this that make me want to stop buying online, i get multiple scores a day going in person.
Brookville shop goodwill is a new center , less then 6 months. Clarion Hospital is a small rural hospital that has been taken over by larger hospitals in the last few year s. They treated their employees well before they got bought out.
Good to know, thanks for sharing, I’m glad they treated workers there well until the buy out. I appreciate you watching! 😊

Yep corporations dont care @people only $$
I’m glad I stumbled across your video I’m not usually on CZcams a lot but I was watching someone else that got a truckload of return goods and yours popped up under that so I switched over to yours. for the past year and a half I have been purchasing items at Auction’s and I have bought from American thrift supply and Goodwill. I haven’t purchased a jewelry because I had heard some bad things about it but I have purchased the stuffed animals and the new clothes with tags and without tags and I can tell you the box I think was like $179 but I got like $500 in clothing in the box plus 4 brand new shoes some of the items I will be keeping for myself but I found your video very informative because I have bought tons and tons of bags and boxes full of costume jewelry at a local auction that I’ve been biding at and I have recently been sitting down trying to look stuff up on Google. The Google photo search is very helpful and I have just about every antique vintage book guide that they make for pottery sports cards furniture and collectibles but it’s hard to find anything on jewelry, because there are so many brands. Most books have a few pages and that’s it. I do have an encyclopedia of maker marks and that’s been super helpful. You said some thing about testing the gem is that the same thing is a diamond tester?? because I have the liquid and the black scratchpad you have that you did the test on Sterling and I have the diamond tester but I haven’t used it yet so I didn’t know if there was a different gem tester that I should get because I found a lot of those service awards and some of them have pink or red stones and I would be interested to see if they were actually real or not without going to an appraiser.
If you do find jewelry that’s broke or that’s missing one or two stones there are people that will buy on eBay broken or junk jewelry so they can make crafts or make repairs.
I’m happy I stumbled upon this today and i have subscribed and I’m excited to watch other ones!! ❤️
Hi!! Ouuu, it's so exciting to sort through all of the jewelry! Sounds like you have quite a bit of it. Your best bet for researching and pricing is to search sold comps on ebay or Worthpoint and read the descriptions as well. Some sellers will give you a lot of information on vintage jewelry brands. Pieces with rhinestones tend to sell for more money. You're on the right track with testing metals. I usually use the Presidium II for gemstones, just because it gives you a range of gemstones other than diamond. Yes! People will buy crafts bags of jewelry, for sure! What part of the country are you in? I'm on the west coast. Thank you sooo much for subscribing and watching! :)
Very cool the cross at the beginning that you could see the Lord's Prayer in were pretty popular in the '70s i love them!!!
They're amazing! Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
New subscriber and I have that delicate Avon necklace, they also offered it in silvertone. Can tell the earrings with the marquise stones are not gold - the prongs are too big and the earring itself too heavy. It is likely silver with vermeil if you are lucky. It is not unusual for only the post and back to be sterling for hypoallergic reasons.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! I’m going to retest those.
From my experience all earrings that were clip on had cushions on them they would hurt after awhile if they didn't I'm 70 and live in Australia
Interesting that cushions were part of the design. Thank you for watching my channel! 😊
@@AliBorealis i enjoyed watching your channel
Regarding the glove clips: they were used to be clipped to a lady's purse to hold her gloves when ladies wore/ carried them back in the day even up into the 1960's.
Thanks, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💞
I recognized the cross with the spyglass. My mother has one decorated with crystals. She's 84 years young and believe it was a graduation or wedding gift. ❤
Wow, what a special gift to have received all those years ago! I'd never seen one before this video. Thank you so much for watching! :)

Good video! 👍 Can you tell me what your black metal tester is made of? Also, what is the liquid you pour onto it? Thanks. xo
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. It's part of a testing kit you can buy on Amazon. Here is a link... amzn.to/3YT30Q3
Hi! Keep in mind that people put many things on cards so, dont trust that the jewelry on there to always be authenticate!!
Absolutely, I do keep that in mind. Thanks for watching. 😊
That hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana. Yes, earrings came with pads on the back. I have wore them. Years ago. Still have a few pair.
The Maker of that Charles Bracelet is Pronounced SPY-DELL. They made engravable Everything! Lol. I know this video is 3 months old but I just wanted you to know how to say the name. Very much enjoying your Personality and Knowledge. Keep them coming. Years ago I bought a few storage Auction units with the intention of selling. I Found a few jewelry items. It was too much work for me as I'm disabled and can't carry or move anything and my help has no time as life n new baby takes her time nowadays. Love watching! Cool Finds! Keep having fun hunny!
Thank you!! When I saw the brand I thought of the old Spiegel catalogs, so I think I mixed up the two!! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
That is a tie clip not a glove clip. It is meant to have the chain go around the whole tie to hold it in place.
Wow, I’ve never heard of a tie clip. I’ll have to look it up, thanks for the info!
I believe all those silver bracelets and all of the beads are Pandora
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 😊
Yes, they came with the earrings🥰
Awesome, thanks! 💖
Awesome video……great score….great content.🎉❤
Thank you!! I appreciate you watching my channel. 💗😊
