    "It's a BEAD !" I could hear Alex's voice in my head as I looked down at the ground at a cobalt blue bead... in the parking lot of the YMCA in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Of course, I picked it up and thought, "Perfect for crafting" (a la Kit and Caboodlers) !

    Could that acorn knob have been the one broken off that foot warmer you found Gail?. My nan had that same bottle of Creme de Menthe. I used to have a drink of it once in a while.

    Such a wealth of finds from this bottle dump! The nude figure is probably a German "bathing beauty" from the 1920's/Art Deco period. They were very popular. I have 2 Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root bottles, one a regular size and one a really tiny sample size, possibly smaller than yours. I had no idea the Dr. Kilmer made it all the way to the UK! I thought it was an American brand!

    I believe the brown acorn thing actually came off the end of the water warmer you had found with the end missing...and i really guessed the glass prism to be a thermometer you may be able to buy a small thermometer and fit in the spot....love this place it holds lots more treasures and i really hope you repair the ladys body i collect pictures and statues of ladies especially older looking ones their beautiful.

    • @grahamcroft564
      @grahamcroft564 Před 2 lety +1

      My thoughts too Tammy. As soon as I saw the foot warmer without the end I immediately realised that the "acorn knob" found just before was probably the missing part (or at least the same part from another foot warmer). I didn't have to guess about the obelisk though as I recently found one with a broken thermometer in place.

    Hi guys! Love your programme and enthusiasm .
    On your pottery there are some terms you were looking for...so here goes:
    A raw clay item that has been thrown on the wheel, hand constructed, or made in a mold and has not been fired is called greenware.
    the first firing is the bisque fire
    the second firing is the glaze firing
    there are more firings and other alternate firings that can be done but not in your little kiln which doesn't fire high enough.
    althought these are the simplest examples, there are loads of fantastic books on pottery of all sorts including Raku (which is breathtakingly stunning!)
    All the best & keep on Mudlarking.

    Love watching the collab, Sarah and Mick are funny people! That headless bisque statue is beautiful! Or should I say booty-full? 😂 Some great bottles, the swamp root kidney cure is awesome, the pickle jars are such interesting shapes... The match case Sarah found is amazing all cleaned up, can't believe it still opens/closes.

      Omg the shoes on the figurine tell me she's probably a Hoffman and Galluba bisque bathing belle of a good size❣️ she would have originally worn a real bathing suit and bathing cap over a mohair wig. I have one smaller for which I paid $600 and a larger $900. I'm dying 😍
