    Think the tag, as others have mentioned, has Welsh place names on it. Think it could be Cefnllys, Cefn-Coed, Cardiff, but no idea what it would relate to.

      @iheartmudlarking1955 3 года назад +5

      After a bit of Googling the tag could be from Henllys Road, Cyncoed, Cardiff.

    I worked in a post office in the 1980's in South Africa. We still used lead seals for registered letters and insured parcels unto which a monetary value was attached. The normal letter and parcel bags were just closed with a aluminium seal. The lead seals were closed with seal punch pliers thingie and each post office had their own so the name on the seal is from the post office it came from not where it went to.

    I admire how you girls upgrade these discarded items into such unique and beautiful objects. I enjoy watching you so much. Rock crazy as I am I do feel a bit sad when you pass up some of the beautiful stones but I feel very happy when you notice the beauty of one or two and take them. I think that tiny beautiful stones would add an element of nature to you crafts. Stay safe and keep hunting.

    I think the military dog type piece of metal is a Welsh address.
    The ‘coed’ part means ‘wood’ or ‘trees’ in welsh and is a very commonly used as part of a village name (as in Betws-y-coed). It is pronounced coyd. The ‘diff’ is Cardiff which leaves the first line ‘NLLYE’ which could be the end of a street name, house name or a surname.

    @christineingram55 3 года назад +8

    The pointed decorated thing I think may have either been a dowl tool or a worn down punch used as one. .The engraving on the handle is to improve the grip.It’s small so I imagine it’s use would be for leather or even fine metalwork in jewellery or clockmaking..My guess anyway You got some interesting pieces today ..Love n Light 🥰

    My best guess for the pointy item is that its an Awl (not an Owl lol) they are used for making holes in leather or sail cloth
    amongst other things, but one can imagine the odd sail needing repair on the Thames.
    Absolutely adore that bed, can I have one full size please lol
    So interesting the stories behind the finds today :)

    • @MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers

    Oh the little green glass circle, rim of a bottle, would make a perfect rim for a wall clock or picture frame for the doll's house., don't ya think? Ladies, I'm seeing agates, jasper and small fossilized sea creatures. Not positive, but the sharp ended metal piece that Fleur found at around fifteen minutes looked to be kinda ancient, Roman? There sure was an impressive amount of tiny mysterious finds, as is usually the case on the Thames. Speaking of small things, the bedstead with all of the trimmings, that you Ladies built was too precious for words. You two could literally have a shop on line, selling miniature items exclusively. You could call it {Bitsy's Minis} or?
    Fleur and Kate, Thank you for being the Lovely Ladies you are. Heart and Hugs 2 U + pets and scratches for Sunny. : )

I found a soda bottle from the 50's the other day by the Delaware river that had my sister's nickname on it. "Neiss" and Doylestown our home town on it!
