At 4:45, that piece of jewelry from India, that long piece goes across your face to your nose. Some women have their nose pierced just to wear this kind of jewelry, but now days they mostly just hook it onto their nose somehow. It is very common in India, and very beautiful with their black hair and head coverings.
They can also go over the ear and on to the back of the ear to help offset the weight if the earring on the ear. If not, they go toward the back and pinned to the hair.
The black 1950’s sterling earrings which you thought was not glass or crystal is most likely Bakelite instead. Bakelite was at the height of fashion in the 1950’s which makes them highly collectible and valuable. Cheers
Sometimes, once in awhile you can fund some nice stuff in the thrift stores now. People used to donate really good stuff to the thrift stores but then the thrift stores started jacking up the prices a lot. Many people complain to me about the high prices at thrift stores now. People stopped donating and now give their stuff away for free to someone in need. They all say they would donate but the thrift stores turn around and jack up the prices. I can purchase brand new qood quality natural fiber clothing for close to the same price the thrift stores are charging for polyester and vinyl junk. The thrift stores quite often keep the good items and auction them off too.
The prices are getting a little out of hand! Especially the chain locations. There are still a few locally owned that have good prices for good stuff, like the old days. Thanks so much for watching my video! 💖
@@AliBorealis I was told just the other day by one of the higher-ups in management at the Goodwill (upper management just happened to be visiting the store I was in that day) that they are really tired of resellers coming in and hoarding the nicer items so they had to jack the price up to help deter them. She said, unfortunately the every day person who is not reselling is paying the cost of that. They originally opened their stores so that every day people could come in and shop and that’s what they really want to get back to. That’s just what was explained to me when I was complaining about there hardly ever being anything good anymore on the shelves, and everything that is there is high priced and not worth the price they were asking. To be fair, before a lot of people started to resell I found many beautiful and highly valuable items at Goodwill which I will always cherish, so I sort of understand where they’re coming from. These days it’s a rarity to find anything like that if you aren’t a reseller. The flippers and resellers in our area are cutthroat and they come in five or six times a day as fresh cards come out. Some are even rude as they muscle in with lightening speed grabbing what they can. It is really kind of brutal. That’s in Southeastern Ontario. Oh, and the difference in money you were talking about at the first of your video is called an exchange rate, and it fluctuates all the time. Sometimes the rate is even, sometimes it’s higher and sometimes it’s lower. It’s been quite a bit lower on the Canadian side for a while now. Just FYI.
The 梅 Enamel pendant is not cherry blossom, it's Prunus mume, “梅” is asian plum or apricot. They blossom in late winter before the spring, so we regard them as Three Friends of Winter, stand for character of resilience.
Wow, thank you so much!! I just learned something new! Three Friends of Winter sounds so interesting, I'm going to research that a little more. Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel!! 😊💖
I’m from Vancouver and buy vintage jewelry. Never knew about thrifting like this. I’m new to your channel and this category of videos. Your videos are my fav. Your excitement and positivity makes each piece extra fun! ❤🎉😊
Hi The Indian jewelry piece that you picked at 4:40 is a ear-ring, if the other end had a hook then it would be hooked in the hair. If you google "jhumka earring with hair chain" you will see how it is worn. These are normally worn on special events, weddings, festivals, etc. But in this one, the chain just goes over the ear, the loop at the end goes behind the ear. "jhumka earring with ear chain" supports the weight of the earring so the ear holes dont get stressed. The jade necklace set at 07:00 is an Indian "chokar necklace". The slider rope instead of a metal chain is a very Indian jewelry design. The little star at 24:02 is used like a charm that young kids attach to the zipper of a bag.
Great finds in there! The small "keychain" with the black cord is a cell phone charm, which can be looped pulled through on a purse strap loop, wallet pull, etc.
This is such a wonderful idea. I miss hearing her voice and her inspiring words. I’ve been working on my projects and am thinking of her often. She taught me so much about beading. Keep her memory going. I’ll be watching. 🙏🏻
I just discovered your channel. Amazing jewelry haul! I live in the Toronto area and regularly buy jewelry jars from my local SA. I love the treasure hunt. Just FYI, the earring at 32:33 marked Butler is from a company called Fifth Avenue Collection. The company was founded in Canada and their head office is based out of Moose Jaw, SK, but their collections are sold around the world. I find their pieces quite regularly. Their necklaces usually have a hang tag with the logo FAC, but bracelets and earrings are marked Butler (after the family that founded the company). They have been in operation for almost 30 years. Their sales model is similar to Avon or Sarah Coventry where they recruit representatives for home parties etc. Great channel, I look forward to learning more from you!
Thank you! Love the information on Butler! I've learned so much about jewelry made in Canada from making this video! I had no idea Sherman jewelry is a Canadian company. Don't know if you watched my Estate Jewelry Unboxing video? A viewer from Canada sent that box to me and it's full of Canadian treasures! I'm posting part 2 of that one later this evening. Here's part 1. I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💞 ruclips.net/video/kiQtG6gHTeg/видео.html
18:10 your "little guys" are called Inukshuk. They were originally Inuit (Eskimo) stone markers and since the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, have become very popular throughout Canada.
Ahh, it totally is!! I recognize the J charm now! Thanks for pointing it out to me!! E-mail me if you'd like to purchase it and thanks so much for watching my channel! AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
My mom sold Sarah Coventry when I was in high school. Over the past 5 plus years I started collecting it as so much of it was found in my jewelry jars/bags. Internationally, SC designed and sold completely different pieces, with Canada having its own line. Only best selling pieces of SC/USA were sold internationally. I have all 3 books on SC and one on Emmons. It was in the Emmons book that I learned about their Canadian line of jewelry. Also, the first Indian earring you showed that had a string of beads on it with a loop- connects to a nose ring. Nice finds.
Some really interesting, pretty and unique pieces of jewelry in this Canadian box uncovered. I have to review all over again, bc I was looking at this clip while I was in bed ready to drift off and I did from time to time. Some great finds in this Canadian mix and match collections! Worth that visit to Vancouver, BC. 👍🥰❤️
The AB peacocks At the beginning are absolutely gorgeous! I may have to hit you up on those babies lol. The two-tone necklace with the earrings and rhinestones and definitely the Jade one they look like they could be from the Raj collection, pieces from India .I believe at one time they sold on HSN and the other jewelry channel.Beautiful beautiful pieces so far I'm only at18 minutes lol Can't wait to check out the rest
Are you talking about the pink earrings? I still have them if you'd like them. Just send an email and I'll give you a good price. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
Your $40.00 bag paid for itself after the first 5 pieces! great canadian bag,you lucked out big time w new items an very wearable most of it this far!Enjoy 😊
I have loads of the gold heart pins from variety club I've collected over the years, they are sold in the UK charity shop The British Heart Foundation ❤
My Grandmother once bought a watch from a thrift store in Roseburg, Or. turned out to be a 1933 18k white gold art deco watch with small diamonds & sapphires. It was beautiful and the movements inside, Behind the face had small rubies .. my dumb 18 year old arse took it to a jeweler so that I can wear every day.. he took everything out of the back of the face of the watch and put in a battery one and kept what was inside. I’ll never forgive myself for that! I was so naïve!
Thank you! I visited Canada for the first time and found Vancouver to be a very lovely city!! U.S. channel, but will be happy to thrift more in Canada! Thank you so much for watching my video. :)
Oh my gosh, that pearl ring that was about size 2 to 3 would totally fit me. I have tiny fingers and it’s hard to find things like that to fit. It’s beautiful!

I'm just seeing this for the first time, how much for all the hair dressing, hair combs and barrettes, it's been about 5 months ago. And what kind do you have that I could buy reasonably priced, I have long hair and love hair accessories, that are old and and good shape, thanks, best regards, Teressa
Hi! I sold all of my hair accessories to someone a few months ago. This box had a lot of them, and I do come across them from time to time. Maybe check back in a few months when I have more built up again. Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊 💞
24:01 The keychain like item with the charm says best is actually a cellphone charm used on those old models of cellphones with a hole to attach it which almost can not be found on today’s new smartphones. The pink ribbon with zipper edge and letter J is from a Juicy Couture perfume bottle I believe.
The heart saying “the variety club” a new design is made every year to support charity and are only available from Tesco supermarkets, here in the UK 🇬🇧 they cost £1 each, but the older they are the more value they have, I have the whole set up until 2006. So missing some but you can go online and buy the ones your missing.
I think it's spinel, but it's almost in the topaz range, so could be that. Sometimes the testers are a little off. Could you e-mail me for a price on it? Thanks! AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
In the UK, charity goods have a shelf life and shops are under pressure to turn stock over, so maybe some of the sets you pick up just didn’t sell quickly enough?
There is a huge Indian population in Canada. I love their jewelry, it is not subtle but usually very ornate and well made. The nice thing is you can just google asian indian jewelry or wedding jewelry and get an idea of what it costs. You can look it up, but I seem to remember that if one earring had a really long chain or beaded chain on it, one end might have gone across the face to attach to a nose ring or stud, that part might be missing.
The Indian jewelry is all so very pretty! Googling it more, it does seem that attaches to a nose ring, how amazing! Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊
The decorative string that attaches to the nosering is clipped on hair. We typically keep the ear and nose jewellery separate. The strings are for support as well as to add some details. I guess we Indians are just maximalists.
Hi!why,wouldnt you just replace the stone missing in the sparkly earrings on the card? You can save the stones for crafting,why the earrings are brand new?im sure someone would by them for $3.00 or more or around the christmas season later on.
Thank you for the idea! I'd love to pass it on to someone who likes doing stone replacement. I've tried and I just make a mess out of the glue!! 😂 Thank you for watching my channel!
The one earring with music notes is an Irish earring looks like someone was using it as brooch. Also the black scarf tie is worth money it's from the 40s with plastic was the cats pjs. The black thing with charm is a cellphone charm. Back in the 90s we use to loop thoes on the back thro the screw metal kinda part. And kids also use to on there psp hand held Playstation controller.
That earring that you're talk about has that long piece to it you put that on the back of the earring before you put the class on that's just a different style I remember that from the 80s
that earring with the long double strand of garnets hooks onto your nose, I believe. That jade necklace and earring set is beautiful. all from India, I would say.
Hi I’m new to your channel. I love vintage jewellery here in Australia. I was just wondering machine you use to check the stones please Thanks great channel very informative
My guess is that the long red beaded dangle on the Indian earring actually hooks onto a nose ring. If you google Indian earing/nose ring, you'll see lots of examples popping up.
No, actually we hook it to our hair with a hairpin. It is too short to hook to ur nose pin & nose pins chain are only hooked on the left side of our nose not from both sides... We aren't horses
W🤩W the rhinestones with the set is absolutely gorgeous are you selling it, You got the “GREAT” stuff in the bag?! Oh I’m new to this channel an looking forward to your Channel, they’re very Gorgeous Beautiful very Stunning an Ravishing 💖💯‼️yup the Aqua bracelet sterling silver is gorgeous too.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching my channel. ❤ I do still have the rhinestone necklace and earring set, if you’d like to purchase. I’ll give you a good price! Please email me at aliborealischannel@gmail.com
Thank you! It was a good one! I actually have the jade set in an auction right now if you’re interested in buying it. I appreciate you watching! 💖😊 ctbids.com/estate-sale/24710/item/2655617/Jade-Necklace-Earrings-Set
You could make a pendant out of the earring w musical instruments and put a stone inside the maybe purple to match the stones or pink!awesome looking pendant for a music teacher, or those that play those instruments !😊
The earring with the red stones at the bottom but was missing a clear stone you put to crafts, what would you want for them. Also where are located in the US ? Love the video's
Not sure if someone has answered it for you. The black cord with two charms is for the hole in the old phones and tablets or stylus with metal loops to tie through. Pull cord through, open loop then pull charms through.
Would love to see you purchase from Palm Beach Florida. Lots of retirees live there. I follow a thrifter on Instagram who shops home goods and the Antiques she finds are incredible.
Ooouu, I was on a health care worker contract in Miami for 4 months, and regularly thrifted all the way up to Palm Beach. They had the most fantastic jewelry that came through those stores on a daily basis!! I'll need to get back there!! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
That silver braid in the Taxco cuff could be alpaca silver, also known as nickel silver. It was often used to make less expensive versions of other pieces
Hii! I do still have the necklace! Please email me if your interested and I'll give you a good price. I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💞 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
Many times, with the larger earrings (those single ones) I will make them into a brooch, add them to a hair comb or decorative clip. I hate having to send them to Goodwill. Kust seems like a waste of someones gifts or talents!❤
Hi, this first thing would be to use a magnet, if it sticks to the magnet, it's not gold or sterling. Then you can get a simple acid testing kit (I linked it below). Never put the acid on the pieces, always do a light rubbing on a place that isn't noticeable. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖 amzn.to/3UEoZM8
Hello, I am a fan of yours who also loves jewelry. How did you go about buying that lot in Canada? I am interested in buying a lot like that there. Thank you very much. Blessings. 🥰🙏🏻
Hi, I purchased this one at a Salvation Army in Vancouver. I just happened to be there at the right time when they brought it out from the back. I'm not sure where you live in Canada, but I'd start with asking a few thrift stores in your area if they do these bags, then try to get one from there. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
The earrings that match the Indian necklace and has like seedbeeds on it, might be that you remove the back of the stud earring, place the end of the seeded piece over the stud, then replace the earring back.😊
I do believe there is another jewelry maker with the same initials as Sara Coventry and also marks their jewelry SC. You have to be familiar with Sara Coventry particular mark to be aware of the difference.
Hi Theresa, I do still have the sterling Elvis pendant from this box! Please email me and I'll give you a good price on it. Thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💖 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
Please check gold tome necklace with rhinestones with dangle ..may be gold and diamonds ..markings for this gold are hard to find and written differantly
That zipper, hot-pink ribbon with the J is Juicy Couture and it does not attach but goes over the top of a bottle of perfume. It was for their Breast Cancer Support campaign.

actually you are incorrect that piece clips into the hair I am south asian they are called Sahara earrings
@@AliBorealis Those earrings clip into the hair that is what the chain is for they are called sahara earrings
They can also go over the ear and on to the back of the ear to help offset the weight if the earring on the ear. If not, they go toward the back and pinned to the hair.
The black 1950’s sterling earrings which you thought was not glass or crystal is most likely Bakelite instead. Bakelite was at the height of fashion in the 1950’s which makes them highly collectible and valuable.
Cheers
Thank you, I'll need to look at them again! I appreciate you watching! 😊💖

There is a huge Indian population in Canada. I love their jewelry, it is not subtle but usually very ornate and well made. The nice thing is you can just google asian indian jewelry or wedding jewelry and get an idea of what it costs. You can look it up, but I seem to remember that if one earring had a really long chain or beaded chain on it, one end might have gone across the face to attach to a nose ring or stud, that part might be missing.
The Indian jewelry is all so very pretty! Googling it more, it does seem that attaches to a nose ring, how amazing! Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊
Cool I like all the goodies you got in your bag
@@DeborahMoon-u6j Thank you! I appreciate you watching! :)
The decorative string that attaches to the nosering is clipped on hair. We typically keep the ear and nose jewellery separate. The strings are for support as well as to add some details. I guess we Indians are just maximalists.
Hi, I'm a new subscriber, your videos are very interesting. I really like that miniature table set❤
Hi!why,wouldnt you just replace the stone missing in the sparkly earrings on the card? You can save the stones for crafting,why the earrings are brand new?im sure someone would by them for $3.00 or more or around the christmas season later on.
Thank you for the idea! I'd love to pass it on to someone who likes doing stone replacement. I've tried and I just make a mess out of the glue!! 😂 Thank you for watching my channel!
The Indian earring - the bead strings pin to your hair or loop around the ear and from the front and go into the back where u put the backing
Yes yes you should!! you should come to Canada again -come to Calgary this time so you can show me where I can find jewelry bags👍😊
😄I love to travel! One day I'll make it to other parts of Canada! Thanks so much for watching my channel. 💖
Go to value villiage.
@@sunshine000000ful1 We have Saver's here, I think it's the same company. Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
Thank you, I have done macrame, but not of jewelry. Pretty fun.
Thanks so much, I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
My fav was that diamond necklace.,very nice 😊
It's very pretty! Thanks so much for watching my channel!! 💖
The one earring with music notes is an Irish earring looks like someone was using it as brooch. Also the black scarf tie is worth money it's from the 40s with plastic was the cats pjs. The black thing with charm is a cellphone charm. Back in the 90s we use to loop thoes on the back thro the screw metal kinda part. And kids also use to on there psp hand held Playstation controller.
Wow!! I'll have to look through those things again, thanks for the info!! I appreciate you watching my channel. :)
Love that first rhinestone necklace.
Very pretty!! Thanks so much for watching my channel! 💖
Copper and silver are the best metals to use for enameling so good to check those out.
Didn't know that, thank you!!
That little thing with best and a star can be used for camera or cellphone case as handles
The earring that hooks to something actually hooks to the nose or nose ring which can be a hoop.
Also single earrings you can cut them down and turn them into pendants
That one thing you said you didn't know what to do with you put it on a zipper and it gives your zipper bling
That earring that you're talk about has that long piece to it you put that on the back of the earring before you put the class on that's just a different style I remember that from the 80s
I've always thought old earrings with old beads orange Sterling or gold was still worth something cuz the beads are old too
I have an old necklace and it has old beads in between the pearls and I had it checked it is real pearl s
Or brooches
Your last green dangle earrings match your green necklace,same color an round,but necklace is oblong if i remember correctly.😊
I’ll look at that again, thanks!!
that earring with the long double strand of garnets hooks onto your nose, I believe. That jade necklace and earring set is beautiful. all from India, I would say.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 💖
Our thrift store charges an arm and a leg for used jewelry. If they do a bundle its usually cheap jewelry or broken jewelry.
Hi I’m new to your channel.
I love vintage jewellery here in Australia.
I was just wondering machine you use to check the stones please
Thanks great channel very informative
The extra part of the dangle earring some of them connect to the hair some how.
Interesting! I'll have to google some image to see what that looks like. Thanks so much!
My guess is that the long red beaded dangle on the Indian earring actually hooks onto a nose ring. If you google Indian earing/nose ring, you'll see lots of examples popping up.
I googled it, and it does seem that way! Thanks so much for watching my channel. 😊
No, actually we hook it to our hair with a hairpin. It is too short to hook to ur nose pin & nose pins chain are only hooked on the left side of our nose not from both sides... We aren't horses
@@xsotica Thank you! I appreciate you educating me on Indian jewelry and I appreciate you watching my channel! :)
@@AliBorealis u are most welcome. I could see that u weren't confident about ethnic indian jewellery so just a little help.
@@xsotica not at all 😅I appreciate the help! 💖
Wonderful video. Thanks!
Thank you, I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
W🤩W the rhinestones with the set is absolutely gorgeous are you selling it, You got the “GREAT” stuff in the bag?! Oh I’m new to this channel an looking forward to your Channel, they’re very Gorgeous Beautiful very Stunning an Ravishing 💖💯‼️yup the Aqua bracelet sterling silver is gorgeous too.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching my channel. ❤ I do still have the rhinestone necklace and earring set, if you’d like to purchase. I’ll give you a good price! Please email me at aliborealischannel@gmail.com
That's quite a bag you got!! Great things in there congrats!! The Jade set was my favorite 😍
Thank you! It was a good one! I actually have the jade set in an auction right now if you’re interested in buying it. I appreciate you watching! 💖😊 ctbids.com/estate-sale/24710/item/2655617/Jade-Necklace-Earrings-Set
You could make a pendant out of the earring w musical instruments and put a stone inside the maybe purple to match the stones or pink!awesome looking pendant for a music teacher, or those that play those instruments !😊
Great idea! It’s a very sweet earring for music lovers. 😊
I wonder if the earring with the beads, if the longer part reaches the nose? Perhaps that was how it was worn?😊
The earring with the red stones at the bottom but was missing a clear stone you put to crafts, what would you want for them. Also where are located in the US ? Love the video's
Hi!! I can do $7, that includes shipping. Please e-mail me if you'd like them. Thanks so much for watching my channel! AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
I work at a Thriftstore and we do put out jewelry bags all the time. They are grabbed up pretty fast.
Hi are you in Canada or the U.S. I'd love to stop by your store sometimes!! Thank you for watching my channel! :)
@@AliBorealisMy thrift stores in Canada ( Ontario ) puts out bags of jewelry
@@HandbagDiva Sounds like a great thrift store! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
Maybe next time you go to canada, you can pick up several bags of jewelry!
The little black cord thingy is probably a purse dangle That huge earring with instruments would make a great broach.
Thanks for letting me know. 😊 That earring is amazing, and it absolutely would make a great brooch! I appreciate you watching my channel! 💖
The "best" dangle used to go on a cell phone. They used to have a place to put stuff like that... Think "Paris Hilton" years.
Would those natural dark stones be jet? Is jet a gemstone?
"pink zipper with the j" is a juicy couture item. Usually on a perfume bottle
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
The roping on the earrings one goes in the front the earring and then the other one goes behind your on the stem and then you put the back on.
25:29 thats portugese silver. The tiny pictoral mark on the ring part on clasp and where the bail conects to filigree
Oouu, thank you!! I'm not familiar with Portuguese silver, so will definitely research it. I appreciate you watching my channel!
Not sure if someone has answered it for you. The black cord with two charms is for the hole in the old phones and tablets or stylus with metal loops to tie through. Pull cord through, open loop then pull charms through.
Wow, thank you for explaining that!! I appreciate you watching my channel! :)
The earrings you refer to as copper leaf, look to me like my pink black hills gold feather earrings. Just curious?
Thank you, I'll take another look! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
Zipper necklaces were popular in the 70s in ontario,i had 2,1silvrrtone and1 goldtone they cost$ 4.00.
They’ve come back around. This one seems modern.
Would love to see you purchase from Palm Beach Florida. Lots of retirees live there. I follow a thrifter on Instagram who shops home goods and the Antiques she finds are incredible.
Ooouu, I was on a health care worker contract in Miami for 4 months, and regularly thrifted all the way up to Palm Beach. They had the most fantastic jewelry that came through those stores on a daily basis!! I'll need to get back there!! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
the India style earring with the hanging cord...hooks to a nose ring
When measuring chains and necklaces, take the linear measurement. You dont' have to fold it in half. A 16" necklace is considered a choker.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊
I dabble in jewelry, if there are one of a kind earrings etc. I might make a pendant. The vintage bracelet is a filligree design, I think 😅🎉❤
Thank you!! I have quite a few single earrings, some are vintage branded and very beautiful. Let me know if you'd like to purchase anything! 💖
That silver braid in the Taxco cuff could be alpaca silver, also known as nickel silver. It was often used to make less expensive versions of other pieces
Yes, probably alpaca, defiantly not silver. I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
And alpaca and nickle silver has no silver in it at all!
I wish I seen this prior, any chance the old multi metal necklace you researched is still available
Hii! I do still have the necklace! Please email me if your interested and I'll give you a good price. I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💞 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
@@AliBorealis I emailed you earlier
Many times, with the larger earrings (those single ones) I will make them into a brooch, add them to a hair comb or decorative clip. I hate having to send them to Goodwill. Kust seems like a waste of someones gifts or talents!❤
Nice!! I don't send anything back to the thrift store. I'll bundle them for people to do crafts. Thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💖
How do we procur an item. I would love the clear lucite bracelet as it is an 8 and they are usually much smaller. Thank you.
Hi! Please email me and Ill give you a good price! Thanks so much for watching my channel! :) AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
The clasp has a spring inside and causes it to magnatise.
Yeah I think they didn’t even look through the bag before handing it over. Love the Little painted Rock broach. That is so cute!
Right?! Hardly looked through it, and definitely not with a magnifying glass to see the gold and sterling marks!!
What tools I need to check the jewelry for real gold ect. We’re can i get th equipment needed?
Hi, this first thing would be to use a magnet, if it sticks to the magnet, it's not gold or sterling. Then you can get a simple acid testing kit (I linked it below). Never put the acid on the pieces, always do a light rubbing on a place that isn't noticeable. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖 amzn.to/3UEoZM8
Hello, I am a fan of yours who also loves jewelry. How did you go about buying that lot in Canada? I am interested in buying a lot like that there. Thank you very much. Blessings. 🥰🙏🏻
Hi, I purchased this one at a Salvation Army in Vancouver. I just happened to be there at the right time when they brought it out from the back. I'm not sure where you live in Canada, but I'd start with asking a few thrift stores in your area if they do these bags, then try to get one from there. Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel. 😊💖
How much for the pretty light blue stone in silver bracelet? It’s gorgeous 😍
Hi, I’ve already sold the bracelet. Thank you for watching my channel! 💖😊
The earrings that match the Indian necklace and has like seedbeeds on it, might be that you remove the back of the stud earring, place the end of the seeded piece over the stud, then replace the earring back.😊
Thank you! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
I do believe there is another jewelry maker with the same initials as Sara Coventry and also marks their jewelry SC. You have to be familiar with Sara Coventry particular mark to be aware of the difference.
I know it's been awhile but do you still have the Elvis pendant at 1 hour and 11 minutes and 40 seconds😊😊😊
Hi Theresa, I do still have the sterling Elvis pendant from this box! Please email me and I'll give you a good price on it. Thanks so much for watching my channel! 😊💖 AliBorealisChannel@gmail.com
Please check gold tome necklace with rhinestones with dangle ..may be gold and diamonds ..markings for this gold are hard to find and written differantly
Thank you, I'll take another look at it! I appreciate you watching my channel. 💖
Pretty wedding set
Very beautiful! Thanks for watching! :)
That zipper, hot-pink ribbon with the J is Juicy Couture and it does not attach but goes over the top of a bottle of perfume. It was for their Breast Cancer Support campaign.
I can see the J now for Juicy Couture!!! Thank you! Makes sense that it went of perfume, since there's no way to wear it otherwise. :)
The bracelet with the abalone , the figures are called Inukshuk...they were used as signpost in the north. Made of slabs of rock by inuit people.
Thank you for the great information! I appreciate you watching my channel! 😊💖
Blue heart earring is 80s I had that pair. Maybe 1928? I don't remember the brand.
80s fashions were so great! Thanks so much for watching my channel. 😊💖
