Asian Delinquent Storage Unit.. Treasure Chest Inside MASSIVE Silver FOUND 

Wrapping silver in Saran wrap reduces tarnish. Drove me crazy you unwrapped and didn't rewrap to reduce tarnishes. Please be more careful with glass and china when showing us the goods. Was holding my breath.

Dear-heart! Much as I love you guys, am holding my breath in panicky watching you handle these precious items in such a careless manner! Please, not everything will meet your personal taste, but it can still hold considerable value if undamaged!

You should be more careful with your unwrapping some of those items are worth lots!

I am freaking out how you are moving around that large black pottery vase. Holding my breath for it looks like money.. Then you sit it on top of the dresser where every time you reach behind it it is wiggle wanting to fall off. Whew! I'm a nervous wreck..lol Thank God you moved it..

The oriental boxes are either Japanese or Chinese lacquer work, it needs to be seen by a specialist. some is worth a lot.

Just an fyi on using your keys to cut the tape. The glue will build up on the key and could make it way into your ignition or lock and cause problems after time.

The Big bowl= Jade The placemat= sushi roller I luv the relationship you have with your mom. I just luv your family and your videos. Also Happy Birthday and you have a great day!!

1.05 you found a knife! A KNIFE! :P Yeah! Not sure why you think Delinquent, I think Ex US Navy man, who has been stationed in Japan

tip for all, to tell cut glass from molded, run your finger gently over the "cut" places. If cut, they will feel as sharp as a razor, if molded they are dull and kind of rounded off.

Cannot believe you used the silver pick to open the boxes

The figurines are a set of Terracotta Warriers from China - great find 🇦🇺🐨🇦🇺🐨

oooOOOOooo Pyrex! Cool!!! Another awesome video! As always...Grandma Venture cracks me up! It's a revolutionary from the revolution! Classic Grandma!

The “community” silverware is silver plated, made by the Oneida silver co.

I don't know if any has ever told you but if you see 925 on some thing it's silver

For a guy who got a gazillion knives in another unit, you’re still opening boxes with keys? Come on, Wade. Stick a few box cutters in the glove compartment 🤣

you need have an oriental expert look at the contents of the wood lined trunk and the whole unit contents

57:22 fine Japanese porcelain. very expensive, and delicate so be careful.

where you handle the silver will tarnish from oil in your fingers. You should wear gloves.

You got your Beautiful mom back I Love to here her beautiful voice and she also like what I like. I'm so glad she doing well.

I would not sell anything, 99% of things would be for me

You really need to have an expert look at those prints or paintings. They may be worth a whole lot more than you think.

Couldn't help myself - the third (limited edition?)if I read it correctly - www.artsy.net/artist/yoshida-hiroshi It would be interesting to see who the second ones artist was. Look at the values - PLEASE find a reputable gallery in Portland to help you with these.

You’ve never seen a train case makeup carryon suitcase? They are big sellers. Lol. Love y’all but am sometimes shocked at the unknown info.

Vintage Pyrex is good $. That one is great. It’s not faded because someone put it in a dishwasher! Great find & even better with a set.

Never clean old silver or silver plate as the patina generally makes it worth more - that includes dinnerware. Every time you polish it there is a very fine grit that is found in all polishes that will remove parts of the silver or plate. PS. It is spelled and pronounced SHEFFIELD Shef - Field. Just tryin to edgumcate ya!!!!!! LOL!!!

Give the towels and or clothes to homeless or an animal shelter. Both will be very grateful.

Lacquer box in kitchen box. Better Homes cookbook. I’ve sold 3 lately, almost immediately after listing online. Love the Pyrex set. A nice box just with kitchen. An amazing locker of furniture and art and stuff. Wow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY in advance Wade...!!! anyway you forgot your knife and gloves again!the unit was a blast,most of the items are collectibles.

Wade, you need to consult with an Asian art specialist. I recognize some of those pieces as being very valuable!! You will be amazed at what some of it is worth. An Asian art specialist might possibly be able to hook you up with s serious collector. Or perhaps an Asian auction. Whatever you do, take your time and don't sell yourself short! You've struck gold!

Hey that Sumo guy is megi ivory and everything in the box was a display case for him. He is worth $500+ if real. Pays for more than the whole unit. Those scuba tanks are also probably double pay for the unit.

The foil and plastic wrap on the silver keeps it from tarnishing.

You and your Mom are awesome, I love watching you guys! And yes, you are very entertaining! lol This was def. a winner, winner , chicken dinner!

Since there’s the China influence, plus the Elizabeth coins, I’m thinking Hong Kong, which was under British rule.

Towle... Towle Manufacting Company.... filed for bankruptcy back in the late 90's.... very well known for the manufacturing of silver and silver plated products for the home....

could not tell from the video, but the "tapestry" at 39.29 could be an OBI the waist sash for a kimono.

the square glass case that you said was maybe for fish, is a display case that sits on one of the platforms in the box. you are just so cute.

OMG Wade you got a really good storage unit it has so much awesome stuff inside, I was siting on the edge of my seat wondering what you would pull out next. also happy birthday hope you have a wonderful time and stay safe both of you.....Awesome video.....

Porcelain from China, when they havve the red cartouches underneath can be extremely valuable

the weird forks are a cross between a table knife and a fork. IS stands for International Silver co, they bought out Rodgers.

Some of the older better homes and gardens cookbooks can go for around $30. Just fyi so you don't throw $ away

Great unit!! My dad was a career USAF Officer and we traveled the world. So many of the items that you found were the type of things my parents bought on our travels. My parents were married in 1947. That one picture said given to us as a wedding present 1946. So the timelines would be about the same.

I love to watch your videos Wade, but man sometimes my heart skips a beat when you unwrap things lol, you do have a gift at picking some awesome units!

Community, was known as Oneida community, it was a silver company started in the mid-1800s in Upstate New York

The weird forks are for fish. From a lass from Sheffield which is in Yorkshire, England. That's Shef-field. Loving your commentary. EPNS = electro plated nickel silver

Wade...5:40 the gold lighter you pulled from box looks to be a rather expensive one. Looks to be a " Dunhill butane lighter". They were popular in the early 70's and sold at high end Tobacco (cigar shops) in the USA. They are still sought after and popular with collectors.Nice find indeed.

@43:37 is I think crackle glass and could be worth much more than you think ... check out The Crazy Lamp Lady channel ... she created a Facebook group that is for identifying things (especially glass items)!

55:38 That is a Tsuba, Japanese sword hilt. You sure hit a great unit.

I didn’t read through all the comments. So someone may have said this before. The wood wine bottle I believe is a pepper grinder.

Hi Wade & Mum, from London UK! love your vids especially long ones 😁 EP on silver means electro plated

I don't know about u girls but that's really disturbing to keep getting a hand in my face ..I wish you'd come up with something else...

Happy Birthday! People collect Pyrex. There is a store in PA that buys and sells Pyrex. Tom Kat Collectables. They have a FB page

Learn what bone China means and what it is. Learn basics about silver, silver plate and German Silver. Asian artifacts are common on the West coast. Learn about them so you can reasonably price it to your benefit. You can clean silver, but scratches are for keeps!

The small army looking figures are replica models of the full size Terracotta Army statues in China.

Was anyone else waiting for him to knock that black vase off the cabinet while getting the boxes from behind?

The soap in the suitcase was likely to keep bedbugs away. Not sure that works but I have heard of it before.

THAT CHEST!! CHA CHING.$$$ ..was excited evertime you opened a box.

Spices do have expiration dates. Check them. New to channel, love it.

Awesome finds your the bomb . Love you and your mom doing the videos your both a lot of fun. I love Asian stuff can't wait to see those elephants.

😉 The funny forks are Cake Forks 🇦🇺🐨🇦🇺🐨

The gold glasses are to burn votive candles, The Elephants and barrel tables are used beside chairs as a small table. People put glass top on them. They are very useful. Not a great fan of Asian stuff - but have to admit this is one heck of a good unit. Wonder what happened to the owner. I always wonder that - especially these well packed and cared for things. The chest/drawer furniture looks like something that would have been bought at one of the decor stores a few years ago.

The silver tray said U.S.N this person may have been in the Navy.

Copper,its copper not brass.Brass is the stuff you think is Gold😆

You have saki bowls, the small cups. I think the things Grandma Venture thought might be vases could be either aromer oil holders or used to warm saki. In the cutlery you had fish forks,sauce spoons(with the curved handles), a pie cutter/server and several pairs of sugar tongs. This a fantastic find,well done.

I’ve been watching your videos for the past few days. I’m getting that vibe you and your mom have a ritual of smoking some grass before storage picking lol

Look good in his bar ? The money will look good in his wallet. Sell it.

This old mom loves the old kitchen stuff from this unit, that whisk is too cool:-) Love watching ya'lls videos, not many young men do much with their moms, you remind me of how my sons and me get along:-) I know some complain of how long your videos run sometimes but I personally love them, makes me feel like I'm exploring, which I loved doing as a child:-) Disability does not let me do much anymore.........Anyways, please, keep up the way you do your videos and just know some of us, it's more than just being entertained for an hour or so.....it gives us a few moments to dream too.........

EPNS is electroplated nickel silver, in other words its plated. :)

The weird forks are cutting forks. For cutting meat or salad. 👍

Community is for Oneida and is silver plate not Sterling or .925. The Batik artwork needs to be checked out.

I bet his home was beautiful with all the Japanese items. I think the green. Plate is jade.

Aww now I have to wait for the final video to see all of the items 😉 I did see some Australian coins in the frame and also from te Travel case 🇦🇺🐨🇦🇺🐨

on the ceramic elephants, most orientals who collect them want the trunks up as it is a sign of good luck. With the trunk down all the luck runs out!

“It’s a revolutionary from the revolution.” 🤣 Grandma Ventures is hilarious!

Community is a brand by Onieda silver plated pieces

My parents had two of the pieces at 15:30. They called them tiki cups. I don't know if that is correct or not. I really enjoy ya'lls videos!!

The spoons are called rice pattern, you can hold them up to the light and see what looks like grains of rice. The clay is pierced in that pattern and the glaze fills the piercings to make that pattern.

That brass piece looks more like copper, is not really expensive. That lighter looks like a Dunhill lighter - it could be gold or gold plated and is worth quite a lot. Those "saké" cups look more Chinese than Japanese, to me. Those Asian boxes look like they are either Japanese or Chinese lacquer boxes - could be worth something. In general, most of those Asian objects seem to be Chinese, to me. I might be wrong. The golden rim on the crystal glass is gold leaf, I reckon. Those old 19th cetury photos of ladies are personal in a sense, they could be the grand-mothers or great-grandmothers of the storage unit owner and in that sense are very precious to him or her. I treasure the old 19th century photos of my father and his sister and of my grandfather and great-aunts and uncles. They are very personal to me, they are part of my family history. That trunk by itself is worth good money. How to tell if a rug is expensive - look at the back, the smaller the "weave" the more expensive they are. Solid silver always has proper hallmarks. Given that nickel silver has no actual silver content, it is not worth anything to precious metal refiners. Unfortunately, there is nothing of value to extract. That "old bread basket" is more like a fruit basket, and as it is tarnished, it certainly is either solid silver or silver-plated. I think you might be disappointed by all that silverware, none of it seems to be solid silver but silver plated. Made in England must be Sheffield. Those little "tongs" are sugar tongs for picking sugar cubes to put in tea cups. Those are small reproductions of the old Chinese soldiers from the Terracotta Army, a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi - they are mass produced as tourist souvenirs. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4c_ADqshdSA.html Yes, Mom, I think you're right, it is straw art. Those two elephants are stands for large flower pots - they are probably not worth all that much. I've got one and I bought it new for not much money at all. Those two cylindrical ceramic objects are not stools to sit on, they to are stands for large flower pots. They don't go on top of the elephants, they are not "connected" to the elephants. I read "fragile" and "Sara", not jars. :) I need to go to bed now, have only watched until 52:46 - back tomorrow for the rest. I hope you had a very Happy Easter!

I hope you kept the white elephants and the white stools and the lamps! 😍 it’s a keeper

Happy Birthday, Wade!! The cups you thought were for sake, are for sake. You may find the full sake set, which includes a Tokkuri pot (looks like a small vase with jute tied around the top) that you heat the sake in. And there are usually 4 Ochko cups. Congrats on a great score!!!!!

Keep the Rockwell painting safe they are rare to find

Wow! What an amazing unit! The brass lamp you are showing 54:42 is fairly old. I remember my father having one on his desk that was there before I was born and I was born in 1961. So not antique but definitely vintage.

You should look up a formal setting for silverware. There are salad forks dinner forks desert forks. Teaspoons soup spoons desert spoons. Many formal silver includes many different serving ware. Also, I think nickel/silver is were they are mixed together for strength. Etc.

Community silver is a codeword for silver plating from a specific company, I think Oneida.

Those paintings got to be cheked so you now the real valeu of them!

Usually those girls like that or hand done by an artist probably worth some money take care of it

Overturn the glass over the wood base and u put a statue inside or the jewels of life tree

at 36:20 minutes,..the picture of WW11 is worth a LOT of money ...collector item

If those were made in Sheffield, England they may have a maker’s mark on them to identify the manufacturer if it isnt stamped on .

The forks you thought were freaking weird are cake fork. Love this Unit.

Not only is some of the art worth money so is some of the framing . You should be alot more careful with it so you are not creating damage that will devalue your overall price. I definitely saw damage to the framing that was caused by the way you handled them. Also put tape on the ones that have broken glass so it can't shift and damage the art or framing.

20:00 Most of this cutlery looks like regular silver plated stuff. Not too special but crafters will buy it in lots on ebay for making jewelry. Community, Rogers, Sheffield plate, etc.

Tolle pronounced like a road toll. They are a very famous silver company that made all kinds of things.

Some of those Chinese clay figures can be valued high so be sure to research well. AWESOME unit Wade. So much work but ultimately well worth it.

For dealing with antiques, you need to realize what you have. The oriental things are called lacquer ware

Noritake is worth a lot. careful with it. Most expensive piece, a gravy boat.

You guys really are crushing it! Mom has me cracking up 🤣I’m so glad she’s back. Hope you have a great trip for your birthday. Awesome unit!

if you're gonna use your keychain for cutting open boxes, why not put a tiny knife on it as well?

You find the coolest stuff, but I have to laugh - I cringe when you manhandle delicate or personal things as if you’re digging through the dirt for potatoes! (and pack breakables as if they weren’t) I hope you are able to find out the true value of these things before they get damaged!

Nickel silver, Maillechort, German silver, Argentan, new silver, nickel brass, albata, alpacca, is a copper alloy with nickel and often zinc. The usual formulation is 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc. Nickel silver is named due to its silvery appearance, but it contains no elemental silver unless plated.

Hi, the long forks are for pickle onions and the ones that you said was weird are cake forks.Debbie in the UK.😊
