as someone who bought a v specific style of jadeite teacups from anchor hocking (the jane ray pattern) bc of a film they feature in (in the mood for love) and autism, i am so happy to hear that the brand wong kar-wai used in his film is the one without the uranium. thank you!
Thanks for the informative video on Jadeite. You had some tidbits I hadn't heard yet. Keep the content coming. Hoping to stop in to the shop the last weekend of this month.
July 9, 2023@ 11:23pm. I’m new to your channel but I loove the videos. I’m not sure if you’ve done a video on Disney stuff or paper weight glass. Thanks
@@66uniqueantiques Yes. It may be all in my head, but I think water tastes better stored in glass...even though I fill my reusable plastic water bottle to drink it out of lol!
@@ShineYourLight144 I use glass jars with metal lids for cooked food in the freezer.No smell contaminating the container.I like glass as you can sterilise it so would love the water dispenser.I agree with you.Water tastes better.Food too in my opinion,in glass or ceramic.
Thanks for the valuable information. I volunteer in a charity thrift store, so this information is helpful. I’ve been there for two years and have only seen a couple of Jadeite pieces that were donated. Perhaps people are holding on to them. I am a teapot collector, so I would like to see a Collecting 101 about teapots.
I didn't know that about the uranium component. And while I was sure I had nothing that old, I got out my black light to check, & confirmed I have nothing that glows. I used to have a larger collection but when Martha Stewart started displaying her collection in her studio kitchen, prices out here started escalating. In one shop, the owner had even set aside some pieces requested by Martha herself. So, I sent my entire collection up to the Santa Margarita Auction House, which a friend & I frequented, thinking the auctioneers would separate out my pieces for more money. Nope. They sold the whole batch as one lot, & my take-home profits took a substantial hit. Around here, I don't think I'd get lucky to find dealers haunting garage sales for my current pieces should I decide to sell. So. It just sits in a cupboard. Sigh.---I frequently scope out the Goodwill Auction site, & one year a set of the delphite blue tear drop bowls came up for sale...wow...the final price was over $500!
That is crappy about the auction but I’ve seen it happen so many times as well. I sees these only going up in value so I think sitting on them will be ok
This has been so helpful. Thank you. I have collected the Fire King Jadeite since the 1980's. I hadn't realized it was still popular. I only have about one or two pieces of the rare other brands. Thanks for letting me know that it will glow with a flashlight. Now I can tell precisely what I have. Have you done any vlogs on Uranium glass specifically? I would like to see that in the future if you haven't. Much appreciated!

Thank you. Loved this video. Wife and I got a semi small collection of jadeite. Just wanted to let you know that Moser Glass is still making jadeite pieces using Fenton and Viking molds. Even though they’re new they’re still cool and I had no problem adding them to my collection
i picked up 2 of the ones you have pictured at 5:49. i got them at a yard sale, my first and only jadeite (so far.) was wondering what they were made for? i originally thought they might have had tops?
If you don’t care about value and just want them for your self feel free to do that. If youre trying to increase value that won’t do it. That would be a repair and doesn’t increase value
@@66uniqueantiques are they common/numerous? I bought one that's broken (lamp) on impulse but I don't know why lol Haven't seen much online so decided to speak up here. Thank you!
No. A geiger counter will tick, but there's not enough to harm anyone, even with continued use (which I can't image doing. I was using my 'oatmeal' cereal bowls, but my 10 y/o dropped one while washing dishes because it was so slick with soapy water it just flipped right out of his hands. No more jadeite dishes after that episode!)

Cool
This was so informative! I would like to see a collecting 101 episode on fairy lamps...I love the connection to Queen Victoria. Thanks for all you do!
Thanks Carol! I’ll add it to the list
Love this Pitcher🤩🤩🤩
It is a nice piece
That was excellent.I learn't so much more about Jadeite,espically the rarer pieces.Loved the water dispenser,so practical.
I agree. Glad you enjoyed
Love the intro...
Thank you for covering this.
One of my favorites.
Much love from Virginia
Thanks Sandy!

Thanks for watching Judy!

Beautiful pieces! Thanks for the video! (I still chill water in a glass jug in the fridge lol!)
Nothing wrong with that just rarer then it used to be 🙂

A video on vintage brass animals such as the cranes, stags and other 60’s and 70’s
Ok I’ll add it to the list
I would love this as well
Great video! Keep up the great work. Your videos are easy to listen to and so very full of information. Thank you.
Thanks Terriesa! Glad you enjoyed it
I like this LAYETTE GLASS
I remember my mom had a salad bowel that we used every day. Memories...
The nostalgia is the best part of this business

(Jean, did you have a relative named Helen?)
@@alanatolstad4824 No not that I'm aware of. Most of my relatives are from WI and Quebec province. Sorry.

Thanks for the info. Good to know when I’m out and about hunting
I heard this, as well. Some pieces being sold on Amazon.
Thank You!! I always learn another from you.🙂
Thanks Cioci!
Thanks for a very informative video! Look forward to the next 101 video.
Thanks for watching Rhonda!
Great video! Can you make a vid on the Hazel Atlas fruit shaped jam jars? They are also very collectible!
Thanks Simon! I’ll add it to the list
Love these videos
Thanks!
I’m sad that I didn’t buy any Jadeite last year😢
Jadeite is very popular so if you find a good deal pick some up
I don’t like it. But any thing from the past is valuable! I love Early American Prescott!!
To each their own
What do you know about NA Tommy Singer jewelry.
Thx
Not much
i picked up 2 of the ones you have pictured at 5:49. i got them at a yard sale, my first and only jadeite (so far.) was wondering what they were made for? i originally thought they might have had tops?
I used to have one of those jars, & mine did have a top. I'm not sure what size is shown, mine was about the size of tall 1-cup measuring cup.
Were there marbles of jadeite.
I’d have to check that out and see
Are the Uranium pieces radioactive? If they are it would be good to know.
I’m sure it is very low if they do
I am looking for 4 Fireking Jadeite berry bowls.
Try eBay?
In case I missed something did they make a glass knife?
They did
@@66uniqueantiques did they make a jade?
I have my grandmas range Ste. The lettering is almost washed off would repairing the lettering ruin the piece?
If you don’t care about value and just want them for your self feel free to do that. If youre trying to increase value that won’t do it. That would be a repair and doesn’t increase value
What about jadeite lamps?
They are very cool as well
@@66uniqueantiques are they common/numerous? I bought one that's broken (lamp) on impulse but I don't know why lol
Haven't seen much online so decided to speak up here. Thank you!
I wouldn’t say they are common but the fact it is broken hurts the value for sure
How can find in Toronto?
Check antique shops or shop on eBay
I have rough Jadeite Jade Type A from Indonesia, do you interested sir ?
If your not local I wouldn’t think it would be worth while for either of us to have it shipped
@@66uniqueantiques sorry sir, what is that mean, what are trying to explain..can you explain more spesific?
Are the reproductions marked TCP china?
Yes one of many reproductions
@@66uniqueantiques there are lots floating around. I just don't want the Walmart stuff. Lmao.
Agreed
Is uranium glass dangerous?
No. A geiger counter will tick, but there's not enough to harm anyone, even with continued use (which I can't image doing. I was using my 'oatmeal' cereal bowls, but my 10 y/o dropped one while washing dishes because it was so slick with soapy water it just flipped right out of his hands.

@@alanatolstad4824 Thank you for the info.Too bad about your bowl
