    I think the emerald button is for a pocket watch fob chain. The button secures the chain to your waistcoat!

      I bet you're correct

      @maryr7800 Год назад +1

      You're probably correct. I was think it may be from a pair of cufflinks, but they would be some really nice cufflinks !

      Yes, a watch fob chain sounds right to me! 👍😄

      I just came on here to say the same! Probably designed for a wealthy woman based on size. Maybe during the riding outfit "menswear" craze? It would look great on a jacket

    Hi Rusty . I’m a fairly new reseller and have learned so much from your videos. Thanks Cousin! That 1800s painting you featured in this video is beautiful but I would not try to fix the imperfections of the frame myself. The frame might be original to the painting and worth as much as the painting. Your customer may want to have an art restorer work on the frame.

    Hi Rusty, that color changing stone is Alexandrite. If it's lab-created (synthetic), it's pretty and will sell for decent money. If it's real, it's worth a fortune!

    The Emerald, is likely late 1700s-1820. Beautiful Find.

  • @terriyoung2389
    @terriyoung2389 Год назад +3

    The emerald button might for a cravat. Someone also mentioned the pocket watch fob for a waistcoat. I think you’re going to be reaching back a few centuries.

    Rusty....congratulations on the watch fob/button...its a sweet little beauty.. !!!
    I know you couldn't hear me when you asked the question "how will ole Rusty price it when he can't find any comps?" I was saying "price it high!!!!"😊 you are great to have as a cousin. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    Color of gold can vary depending where the gold is found. Here in Maine, I believe the last ice age cover scraped the tops of the mountains. This is how we obtain our gold.

  • @sherylstock8687
    @sherylstock8687 Год назад +1

    The pendant with gold inside is probably from Alaska. I purchased one, just like it, without as much gold inside, when I was on an Alaska cruise.

  • @Rose39M

    Very nice haul Rusty! What ever that button belonged on or with, it was made for someone very wealthy!

  • @marymango8365
    @marymango8365 Год назад +2

    Hi again, the painting with initials has the date 1879 by the signature. There are resources on line and books in art libraries that ID signatures. It is a very nice painting. Reminds me of "The Hudson River Valley" school of artists. Easily could be very valuable.
    Take care Rusty & Peaches.

    Hi Rusty & Peaches, you guys have some incredible artwork. William Edward Norton's work go for as much as $15,000. I Googled him, very talented, educated and followed. Won a few important awards during his career.

    Hey Rusty, I just stumbled upon your videos and have really enjoyed and learned from them. In one of your videos from last year "Guide to Examine, Identify and determine Value in Everyday...." I saw that you had a beautiful silver necklace. ( it is at the 10 minute mark).....I had that very same necklace a few years ago. My husband and I got it in San Antonio on a trip there. We are in Ontario, Canada. Anyway, long story short, I lost that precious necklace somewhere and have mourned it ever since! I absolutely loved it. This is a long shot but if you still happen to have it, could I buy it from you? I hope you get this message! Thanks!!

    Hey Rusty. I'm new to reselling. Well I have stuff but haven't listed yet and I believe I'm overthinking lol. Heard you say you were going to a shop in NC. Not sure if that's where you do business, but when I have watched videos, I wondered where you were from (the country accent🤷) lol. I got that SC country accent going on. Thanks for all the education!

    Why do you not get an appraisal on the emerald button to get information on the quality of the stone when reselling this type of item?

  • @redpiano1
    @redpiano1 Год назад

    With the garnet/gold bead item, I think you could also sell that as a set of prayer beads, because of the multiples of 10. I am not 100% sure that this is what that is, but with a Roman Church's Rosary, each of those sets of 10 beads is called a "Decade," and then - assuming you have 10 gold beads - each circuit around the piece would be a "Century." so if you have 10 sets of 10 garnet beads, it's worth trying it as a prayer bead, though it's missing what would be at the bottom (where the crucifix is) to be considered a Rosary.

    I found a cameo similar to yours at a garage sale and paid $5 for it. It’s very beautiful, unfortunately I missed the crack in it. Do you have any idea if it can be repaired?
