Love your videos! The glass necklace looks Italian and the clasp is a trombone clasp. So cool!
What is the name of Josh's channel.
I'd love to check it out.
Your gift from Josh is not only a very beautiful piece but also has lots of personal sentiment attached. Josh is such a caring and loving soul. He will go far in this world. And the world will be blessed to have him here!!
I had no idea the leaves were spoons!! Beautiful.
He is a Canadian man
They make em tougher
But sweeter up there 🌎
Yes I really appreciate Josh and his family and friends, really good people. Josh's talent speaks for itself 💕✌🏻🇨🇦
Absolutely beautiful work of art Josh created! I had no idea the leaves were spoons, even when he got up close, lol. Then when he said it, I was like "Oh ya, that's so cool!"
Love the Cameos and being English I love the Wade Brooch( I have the same one) and the coin bracelet. We used to call those coins thrupenny bits.
Love the tree Josh made. I watch his channel ( usually his lives in the middle of the night when I can’t sleep. ) Going to watch his video on making the tree now.
I was hoping when Alex said Melissa was going to embarrass him , that he was going to admit to having been told what a diaphragm is for. 😂😂😂
That sculpture from Josh is really lovely. He did a fantastic job and it does sit just perfectly in the space. A great unique piece.
If you haven’t watched already. Josh did a video making the art piece and how he measured the nook space with his
arms. Since he forgot his measuring tape.
He is so talented
I love when Melissa joins you for unboxing.
The tree sculpture is absolutely beautiful, so unique, and I love the personal touch of only using things that you've given him. It could hold its own in any London gallery ❤
😊
It was special watching him make it too, and seeing the love he put into it as well as the time and effort. I’ve watch Josh on your show for years and I’ve seen the relationship grow between you guys, you really respect each other and share a special bond.
@@tamaralong-partei6129 Spoons have been a symbol of love all over Europe for hundreds of years. Historically a courtship custom, a man would carve a small spoon out of one piece of wood and present it to a girl as a gift. If she accepted the spoon, it was taken as a token of engagement to be married.
@@judithpride6810 What a fun bit of history I learned 🙂
You are did find a lot of nice items for the jewelry slot at the auction!!! I bet most people do not realize how much work/time is actually put into to make a super auction for yourself!!! Although the interest stays high to keep having auctions, because every auction brings in new items!!! I really Ike your career!! Head boss and it isn't 9 to 5 everyday!!! Plus the videos are great watching your findings each time!!! I hope you all have a Great Week ahead!!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼
The thing you called a lace tightener is actually called a button hook and was used to do up buttons both on shoes and clothing.
Ring box? I thought inkwell, surely.
@@FigaroHey definitely ring box. That's what my aunts engagement ring came in.
Joshua is a fantastic artist. Love the spoonzi 👌🥰🙏
I came on to say the same..button hook
This comment and the spermicide cup comment has me rolling in laughter.
I’m 82yrs old and have been searching for 'ev ‘va to find the origin of the spoon. Thanks to Josh I now know that they grew on trees!😳 🥳 🤩 🌴 🍃 ✨ ⚡️🎉‼️From NH, Patricia 👵🏻 🤗.
Lol!! That’s so funny!
Josh is extremely talented artist, sculptor, woodworker, youtube creator. ❤
I actually saw Josh’s episode about this gift first and I’m really happy to see it again on yours. I love how you and him kept these items out of the landfill and then he turned it into one of a kind artwork and incredibly sentimental meaningful gift. You two truly show how someone’s trash is another person’s treasure👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Not really a gift - it was a commissioned piece for which Alexander paid him.
Josh's tree is amazing. Great to see his work.
Joshua is a great artist,I love the things he makes..this tree is fantastic!😍
The beads are actually called Millefiori. Normally you see the “thousand flowers”,which ofcourse is the translation for Millefiori, in glass and they’ll have more depth. But I think you and Melissa already knew all this.😊
Unbelievable how much beautiful jewelry you found..and super sweet you kept the birds brooch and the tiny mouse separate for Melissa.🙏🏻🥰
Dear Archbold couple.
👍👌👏 Congrats for finding all the jewelry. 2) The "Spoonsai" is an awesome piece of art done by an extremely talented friend of yours. It fits perfectly! Not only the niche (despite the special elbow measurement!😁) but also because it's recycled/upcycled stuff out of your hoarder house projects. It was quite a big effort to put the "Spoonsai" together (Josh mentioned 13 hrs). Congratulations for having this beautiful piece in your wonderful house now.
Best regards, luck and especially health to all involved people.
Josh is so talented. That tree is incredible. Love your channel Alex and Melissa.
Wow, that tree is gorgeous and fits that niche perfectly. What a skilled artist Josh is! I love seeing the jewelry and will have to watch the auction for a few pieces
Thank you for putting something aside for Melissa. I don’t know why I’m so proud of her when she decides to keep something…but…I always am so proud of her.
She deserves it💖💜💖
I love the tree sculpture Josh did! That was so thoughtful of him to use things from your house cleanouts. I'm enjoying watching you go through the jewelry with Melissa. There are some interesting pieces.
Wow! Josh Alexander is crazy talented!!! I especially love that he uses recycled materials to create his art - so cool!
How blessed are you both for having such a beautiful sculpture made for your new home. Josh is incredibly talented. What a great idea for Josh to use all of the trash from your home clear outs!!
Love Josh’s bonsai tree!!!
The carved white beads are probably ivory. I have something similar from my grandmother. That tree sculpture is beautiful. Josh is so talented. I hope Melissa keeps those items. Those birds are older than you might think and superb.
Canada have regulations regarding sale of ivory? I know US does
@@rolsonayita50 not sure
I thought ivory too... I have seen quite a few ivory necklaces that look similar
Oh nice, a spoon bonsai. Josh is a real artist!
Josh made a gorgeous tree, I call it "Tree of Rebirth" loved watching him make it.
I am so proud of Josh in all he does. He put so much thought into his creation, using your materials from different explorations that you gifted to him. There’s so much history and memories that will live on that you share through your videos for your family. This fine piece of art was hand made and signed by a true artist from his heart, and a honest loyal friend for life.
Josh that tree is beautiful ❤ you are so talented.
A non artist sees what things are, an artist sees the potential of what they can become.
03:49 Button hook, not laces. 04:28 likely bone. Older ones were ivory, but a lot of places ban ivory sales so regardless it's "bone". 😁 The coral rose earrings had silver posts - costume metal for sure. The RCA cufflinks may have been for a sales manager rather than a buyer. There probably aren't many around. 13:55 Italian millefiore. NICE. (the mouse...here Chewie!) The old pins and ballerina pieces were a "thing", late 40s to late 50s. Possibly into the 60s. 17:25 French (probably) glass, and OLD if it's that small. Women were smaller back when and 12 or 13 inch chokers weren't rare. 19:33 French plastic Melissa-nabbed pin, probable 1920s. Trombone clasp and all. Sometimes called "french ivory" if it's celluloid. Josh's tree thing...NICE.
Love the Spoonsai!
Josh's gift was so perfect! His name will go down in art history!! What a thoughtful thing to do!!!
Josh is so kind and very talented! The items you want to throw out are the kind of things I love finding so I can use my restoration skills to make them fresh and new again. I am sure others would love to buy a small box of miscellaneous items to tinker with.
Josh is not only extremely talented guy he has a great sense of humor. Always laughing and joking in spite of his serious brain problems and is very generous and pleasant to watch. His is a good friend. Donna/MIchigan
What a beautiful tree Josh made you and yes it looks perfect there. The birks ring box I bought myself at a antique show and love it. I noticed with the better jewelry the boxes were all the same. You must buy them in bulk to help you sell the jewelry.
Joshua’s tree is stunning!😊
Josh, that is an outstanding metal sculpture!! My hubby wanted to know why I gasped at the video! I told him I just saw the most beautiful metal sculpture!
Alex you seem to attract very cool, talented, nice people into your life! As always, I love watching these reveals!
Josh does amazing artwork! Love the Spoosai tree, it is perfect for the space & it is beautiful!
Thanks for showing us the jewelry, Melissa and Alex! Lots of nice stuff! 💚🕊️💕
11:26 That is beautiful!! Josh is an amazing artist, and proves it time and time again!
Josh's sculpture is stunning and is a perfect piece for that niche!
Love the tree Josh made for you, what a great memory piece it is and it looks absolutely perfect in the space. ❤
Nice stuff. I love the nurses' watch, since I was a nurse. Josh's sculpture is beautiful and it looks fantastic there. He is such a kind and caring person. It's special how he personalized it with pieces from the cleanouts. I'm happy he came into your (and our) life.
I love the sculpture from Josh. Someday I'll have an original piece, his work is amazing
Josh’s metal sculpture from scraps from your ventures together is beautiful! What a wonderful, kind gesture. It looks amazing in that space!
I watched Josh's channel first so I already knew what he was there for. What an awesome sculpture! I love it so much! Absolutely beautiful!!
That tree that Josh made is AMAZING 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That is beautiful art
Perfect intermission... Joshua is so talented... love his work...
Josh's art is AMAZING!!!!! OH MY goodness. That is just super perfect and a great special treasure!
The Joshua tree is absolutely amazing. Josh is so talented. ♥
That spoonsai is gorgeous and so creative.
Italian micro mosaics is called tesserae, gold plating over silver is called vermeil, the necklace with the rose carved beads is either ivory or , bakelite or celluloid. If I hear anything else as I watch that could be helpful I will add to.
The amber set is not really a set. I would sell them separately to me the most money. You did mention the earrings are huge , I think they would best be used separately as pendants. I think lots of people will be interested in your auction.
I once bought a small tub of junk jewelry with a coin bracelet in it. The coins turned out to be Venezuelan gold coins totaling to an ounce of gold. I paid $6 American for the tub. Wonderful find.
Could that necklace with the green leaves and red berries possibly be jade and coral?
Love Josh's bonsai tree. What a talented artist.
I thought those were supposed to be raspberries but I have no idea what material was used to make them.
I was thinking Lucite or bakelite.
❤😊 love the josh.
Love your amethyst geode ❤
Alexander,
It's so good to see Josh out and about,
I hope he is OK, because I have been watching
a long time and know what he's been through.
You and your family almost always attract truly
genuine people as friends and acquaintances.
What a great sculpture he has created and
it's especially meaningful since it represents one of the
things you do so well.
Cheers,
Rik
Please tell Josh how really beautiful is his creation! What a lovely gift.
Just look at the treasure you found! So glad it didn’t just get swooped in to a dumpster and will be enjoyed agsin.
The RCA cufflinks were given originally to RCA dealers for selling large quantities. My dad had a set and a tie pin! He never wore unless going to the distributor buying parties
From the first box you pulled out a vintage Murano Millefiori graduated beaded necklace that is probably worth at least $120 US. Look it up before you throw into the grab box.
I watched Josh's first so I knew you were getting this awesome tree art. I am glad you found some valuable jewelry that last house clean out looked more tedious than profitable up till now. Costs of dumpsters brought your whole bottom line way down. I hope you can make some bucks on it all. That was a lot of work.
Love Josh. He is so talented!
Joshua created a beautiful piece of art for your home and you will always remember it from all the adventures and house clearing outs you worked on. He is a talented artist, a special person and even more so, a wonderful friend! Very nice work! (and all the work that you do too Alex!
A nice “remedy” to use if you’re having to untangle necklace chains…put a drop of oil (baby oil, coconut oil, vegetable oil, the thicker the better) on the knot and start to gently rub the oil in. You’ll see the chains start to separate and the knots will loosen so it’s easier to untangle.
I used to used a needle and would gently poke the knot. It worked every time!
That bird brooch is a 1920-1940 French art deco piece my grandma use to wear one just like that. If your wife doesn’t want to keep it I’d happily buy it. It’s a stunning piece. ❤
The necklace with the carved beads looks like pre-ban ivory. I have earrings and a brooch that do look extremely similar. They were handed down to me.
I would have liked a close-up on the better rings. Your jewelry videos are my favorite. Thanks Alex!
Not a lace hook…it’s a button hook for boots. 🥰
He says laces on boots - but the sound was a bit muffled
I had a feeling you would leave empty handed.
He had too much stuff so it was obvious he loves his ginormous collection of everything!
Wowza!
Somehow I missed this old video.
Thanks Alex.
I love the tree Josh did. That is beautiful
I have recently found your channel and I live it. This jewelry is so great. I love looking at old jewelry. The things you find tell a story about this person's life. Thanks so much. I also enjoy when your wife and kids help.
Very much enjoyed!! Thanks for sharing
I love these jewelry unboxing videos. I don’t wear a lot of jewelry, however I appreciate the beauty.
Melissa- birds are my thing also ❤
Josh is a very talented artist. Beautiful piece. You probably already do this, but artisans and crafters love bits and pieces of broken and discarded jewelry so a group of that placed into a lot would be a great addition to your auction.
Yes there is a vintage carved bone necklace White with flowers
Good eye!
Josh’s art reminds me of Ann Carrington art! Love it! He is very talented! 😀
Josh that spoon tree is absolutely gorgeous!!! I’m in love. Lucky Alexander & Melissa you get a beautiful Josh art!
The tree Josh made was incredible. He is so talented. Loved seeing the jewellery.
Last year I sat with my 90 year old mother and went through a few of her jewelry boxes. Her stories were wonderful 💛
She blessed me with a few great treasures. One was a delicate silver watch she wore when she was young.
And knowing the story makes it even more special!
That is an amazing piece of art. He is so talented.
The tree sculpture is awesome! Josh is very talented. Also love the cameo pieces you found
D.
Alex hi I love watching you adventures. Your video is at the begining for me as i write this and no doubt there is so much more i will enjoy. The ?silver hook is called a button hook. Victorian and early Edwardian ladies had slender boots that had very small buttons up the sides and on some gloves too. You insert the hook through the button hole and place it around the base of the button and ease it through. It looks like the carved cream colour beads are ivory.. i am sure you know that if they were bone they would have tiny black flecks from the blood vessels that ran through the bone. I love all your family as you are so united and all you do to help people. Thank you .Marie UK
I never comment but Josh made me to comment!!!wow Josh ❤❤ he is so creative
Great video! So love watching everything you find, but jewelry is especially fun! Thank you, Melissa and Alexander! 😊✌
Beautiful spoonsai art piece!! What a wonderfully artistic and gifted young man!
The Millefiori necklace with the teardrop pendant is most likely Italian. The earrings with coral also have a jade stone. The clasp on the purse probably has sapphires. Thanks for the Sunday night video!
What a beautiful tree for your nook!! Josh does such wonderful work!. It's always interesting to go through jewelry collections. I like looking at the costume as well as the antique pieces!
The spoonsai Josh has made for you is absolutely beautiful, what a excellent interpretation and use of all the gifts…
My father bought me that same white carved necklace in 1962 when he was stationed in South Korea and I was in 7th grade (he may have bought it on a side trip to Japan). It came with a matching bracelet and earrings. I wore these on my wedding day.
Josh is the Man!
Hi Alex and Melissa....I've been following your channel for quite a while now and I look forward to your next episodes. Watching todays video made me want to share a tip with you (if you don't already know it)
I had and older Hungarian woman as a client many years ago. She told me that she used to hide her "good " jewelery in the lining of her jackets etc. when she was going away on vacation. Let's just say, that when she passed, I saved her family giving away ALOT of good quality jewelery before they donated her clothes.
Keep up the great videos...
Kim
I watched Josh’s video for making the sculpture. It’s stunning! And I hope you feel bad for not giving him the DR J Alexander sign he found in the garage ( that he really wanted!) 😂
Josh is such a talented artist. His portrait of Mary was gorgeous and now this stunning sculpture.
Wow, that tree sculpture was stunning. I’m usually not into metal trash art, cos it always just looks like trash stuck together to me, but this is utterly stunning. Josh has a new subscriber!
That tree looks awesome! I didn't even realize the leaves were spoons at first. ❤
Your gift from Josh is amazing! I’ve seen so many nice pieces of jewelry I would love! I’ll have to watch the auction!
Omg... ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! The spoonsi tree from Josh is such a great friend gift. That's better then receiving a car.
The tree Josh made is absolutely stunning!
The white beads that are ivory-like are made from what is called vegetable ivory. Carved from a root vegetable…and popular during wwii.
WOW! Pretty amazing for an arm measured space , Josh. That turned out lovely. 9:41
The micro mosaic jewelry was interesting to see. It always amazes me what people keep. I am sure there are amazing stories about the reasons why.
Josh's gift to you guys was so unique and beautiful. He is so talented.
It is amazing! Spoons as leaves and the other materials from finds of other clean outs. Incredible Josh what a tremendous artistic design it's one-of-a-kind and that says it all about your friendship. Also it goes to say how true the phrase is; "One Man's junk, is another man's treasure."
Josh sculpture is beautiful. The jewelry was fascinating-some looks like the items I used to wear as a teenager.
