Thank you dear dear Rosie girl!! I saw your comment as a notification last night. You touched my heart with your cheering for me. You are a wonderful cheerleader and I appreciate you so much! xoxo Now.. what can I do as a thank you to everyone? Any ideas?
Thanks Gerri. I thought about it when I took that long break to research it. I really did. We'll see what happens with it. I hope I'm not sorry for selling it. So glad you are watching. Thank you!!
Hi sherry! I am a subscriber for about 3 months. I love how you take time to explain the jewelery! I have learned some things about the jewelery from you! I'll e in Canada and enjoy your show very much .
Hello Amelia! I'm so happy to meet you. My grandmother's name was Amelia. It's a beautiful name. She was my best friend. I'm very honored to have you as a subscriber. And thank you very much for letting me know that you are watching. You've made my day!
What have you decided to do about the amazing rubies ? Have they sold!? ❤❤❤❤❤ please get them appraised by a knowledgeable company or person . ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤we want you to have a very good outcome, you might be surprised at how much you are loved!
@@SusanMoody-lc9dz Oh my gosh Susan!! I can't tell you how much this message means to me. I must be loved!! I've had many people tell me to get them appraised. So I did take them to one jeweler. But like another viewer said, that jeweler may have said "Start at $1000" because they wanted to buy them from me. So now I'm not sure. I'll take them to a couple of other jewelers and then we'll see. Thank you so much! I needed this love today for sure. xoxo
Hello Bernitalto. Thanks so much for watching and for your excellent question! I have a video titled, "How to clean vintage jewelry" where I go in to how I clean jewelry. Fortunately the very old necklace that you are referring to has a lot of things going for it as far as cleaning goes. It is on a chain, the metal is all gold or gold filled, and there is no glue to worry about. So, I was able to soak the piece, work on it with by moving dental floss through the beads, and dry it in a fan for 2 days. lol. It was a lot of work but I think it's worth it. If you are interested, I also have a Facebook group called Blessed Baubles where you can ask jewelry questions there as well, or post more questions about jewelry. But asking them here is just fine too. Thanks so much!
That's what I thought the minute I saw it. However, it does not have any of the characteristics of coral. If you hear me in the video, I even say, "it looks more like a gemstone". Then I test it with Miss Prissy, do all that research, and it is Pink Opal. So gorgeous! Who knew, right? Thanks France.
I did? YAY!!! Woo hooo!! Yippee!! I have been wracking my brain trying to think of a way to thank everyone. ?? Giveaways are fun but only one or a few people get a prize. I wish there was a way to thank all of you.
Hi Cheri 22:26 looks like a sun catcher kind of thing it links like it was made for protection hence the black stone it’s probably obsidian. I love the lapis and gold bracelet nice find. Time stamp 43:29 I lhave the ruby bracelet omg what a beauty time stamp 56:35. Btw i love the black light it can reveal a lot. Did you know there is certain type of pearl that glow red and synthetic pearls glow bright
Oh, ok Carol. Thanks so much for your help with that. Obsidian. I always forget about that stone. lol. I agree... the Lapis bracelet is precious! And the rubies! Even lab created, they are STUNNING!! I think it sold the minute it was shown! lol. Love having you here Carol. I pray your Mum is doing well.
Thank you Karen. I probably is. Moonstone is also in that family too, right? When the stone is small like that, I find it hard to tell if its Labradorite or Moonstone. Very pretty though, right? So happy to know you are watching. Thanks again.
Opal is my birthstone, and I have researched and found so many different kinds. But I've never seen or heard of pink opal. I enjoy finding new varieties of stones. That is a beautiful necklace! The wooden and MOP/"abalone" bracelet looks like mid century, probably 1960s. Such a fun, mod look to that one!
I had common opals called Peruvian opals that came in blue pink and pale green. I had never seen opals without a lot of flash. Maybe look up Peruvian opals and see if that might fit what you have.
Hello Misty. Nice to see you. Look up Pink Opal on eBay and you'll see the beads. They are so gorgeous!! It was my first time hearing of them too. Do you have the Gem App called Rock Identifier? If not, you'll want to get it asap. It is free but is worth paying for too. When it says to pay, just click "cancel" at the top right of the screen and you'll be able to use the app with no cost. I hope that helps. Its a great App.
Ok. Thank you very much for that. I don't think it's platinum because platinum would be solid looking like silver. Right? I think the PL is for plating. But I do think its mean of them to put the letter PL and make us thinks its Platinum. LOL I researched my heart out and hope I came up with the right conclusion. Sometimes its really tough. So, I share all that I have found out and let the chips (or rubies) fall where they may.
Hi Sherri! I think you should get the ruby bracelet checked out before you decide what to do with it. Also, every time I heard your cat start his purry engine, I think it's my cat I can hear! Especially when I'm wearing my earphones. My hubby looks at me like I'm going mad, because I start looking around for the cat! 🤣
Hi Samantha. Thank you so much for encouraging me to do that. I did finally take it to a jewelry today. I talk about it in my recent video, "Truly Vintage Jewelry". That's so funny about the cat noises. Hehe. I'm trying to get them to be less interrupting though.
Please be fair to yourself and take that ruby bracelet to a reputable jeweller (or more) and have the metal tested and the total carat weight determined.
Ok Dawne. After so many comments on it, I just might do that. But if you look up the listings that I name in the video, you'll see them there. I'll see what I can do with it tomorrow. Thank you very much.
Hi, first time watching and loved it BTW. The ruby bracelet should be checked by a jeweler, because if those are real rubies well, wow, wow wow! In the 80's rubies were becoming scarce. The metal could be Platinum and I don't know how you would test for that. Not sure at all if platinum but if I'm right about the stones you could be talking thousands. The size of the stones just doesn't fit the sym sizes out there at any point of which they started or now. Best of luck with the bracelet. Would love to know what you find out. Will be watching!
Hi Maria, I tested the metal with gold testing and platinum. It is not platinum. Bummer. The rubies are most likely lab created but still very beautiful!! I do agree that they are giant!! And hopefully you heard all of my research info during the video. I spent quite a lot of time researching. I was so inspired by my Ruby score that I bought a lot of real rubies and will be sharing that in the weeks to come. Thank you for your input. I really appreciate it.
Hi Cheri, I have been trying free versions of a couple of different apps to test stones and I am considering subscribing to one and I don't know which one to go with. Is there one that you might recommend that you find is consistant with it's results? Thank you😊
Hi there, new subscriber!! Just want to say, love your videos and all the goodies you find, but please please please... Do more research before pricing your treasures. If unsure about anything, take it to a jeweler for a free evaluation!
Thank you Sonia. I appreciate your very kind heart. Which pieces are you referring to? The Ruby bracelet? If so, I did take it to a jeweler and wow!! I talk about it on my next video, "Truly Vintage Jewelry". I hope you watch it.
I was sitting next to a waiting room today when the rubies appeared in your video. I had my earplugs in but I gasped out loud! I looked up and got some eyes and eyebrows looking at me. I really wanted to share with the strangers but I did not! LOL! I said to my self - her is going to say “ what what!” And you did! The treasures were in this episode were amazing. The lighting and your patience in showing so we could see composition, findings as well as descriptive discussion was truly magic in this video. I know you have not the RUclips thing that long of time but your discipline and passion shows to make you one of the best storytellers. I cannot invest as I am just a retired person. If I was in n business, I think I would have purchased at least half of this haul! Thanks for the joy and all the best to you.
Oh Mary!! You have made my day!! My week!! My year!! I think YOU are very gifted at storytelling and especially at inspiring and encouraging others. 🥰 Thank you so much for that! You'll be surprised how many people might have enjoyed if you shared your crazy jewelry RUclips lady showing giant rubies! LOL! But I understand the reservation. Thank you so much for appreciating the time in which I take to show the pieces and to explain what you are all getting. Its very nice to know that some of you really do appreciate that, as some have complained and find me slow. ☹️ God bless you!! And thanks for watching my video in the waiting room. 🥰
@@BlessedBaubles I know you have mentioned the complaints. I have to always say “I Yam what I yam.” I understand that uploading videos can take some time and I feel many content creators are more obsessed with their task at hand than really creating the content! Jewelry is to mystical to show in a hurry. It is good for the viewer to see the elements and try to guess the ethics and genre of piece.

Hi Cheri!
Bolty was so polite tonight. What a good kitty! I could barely hear him.
Lovely baubles!!
Hehe. I'm trying. I started shutting my office door while I'm recording. But if he wants to holler, he WILL make himself heard. Hehe

Labradorite is the little flashy stone with onyx and quartz piece 😊
Thank you Karen. I probably is. Moonstone is also in that family too, right? When the stone is small like that, I find it hard to tell if its Labradorite or Moonstone. Very pretty though, right? So happy to know you are watching. Thanks again.

Thanks Frieda 👍😊
That Larvikite is beautiful
Thank you!! It's the first time I've ever seen it.
I'm so happy to know that you are watching. Thanks!!
Do keep in mind that platinum can sometimes be slightly magnetic if it is mixed with Cobalt if I'm not wrong. I mean regarding the ruby bracelet.
Ok. Thank you very much for that. I don't think it's platinum because platinum would be solid looking like silver. Right? I think the PL is for plating. But I do think its mean of them to put the letter PL and make us thinks its Platinum. LOL

Find some diamonds like the rubies,and you’ll faint Cheri,come down to earth real fast❤Haha
😁🫣🤣 I'm telling you what Frieda! I hope I do! Hehe
Just me tonite❤
So glad you are here Frieda girl
Please be fair to yourself and take that ruby bracelet to a reputable jeweller (or more) and have the metal tested and the total carat weight determined.
Ok Dawne. After so many comments on it, I just might do that. But if you look up the listings that I name in the video, you'll see them there.
I'll see what I can do with it tomorrow.
Thank you very much.
Is the ruby bracelet still available
There was a request for it but I'll have to see if they followed through. Feel free to write me and I'll put you in line.

Hi Stacey. Yes. I love Rock Identifier. I talk about it in one of my last videos. I think its fantastic!
@ thank you!!😊
As far as the Opal necklace, I thought opals didn’t eat at all in a gem tester. I had read that but I could be wrong.

Check to see if they are not synthetic rubies . Either way , beautiful .
They are lab created I would say. They test as rubies so that's what they usually are. Yes, gorgeous!! Thank you.
Don’t they make a blue liquid Rx.for brain tumors fron Sweden.just 🧐❓❓
Oh Frieda!! You lost me on this one.
