The white porcelain piece may be part of a bedside lamp ,the centre hole being where the metal rod was placed and the wiring threaded through. Thank you for the lark.
“Who doesn’t have a corroded spoon collection?!” You gave me a good laugh Gail! 😂 Always enjoy your videos no matter what you find but a good bead outing 🙂
If you don’t have a corroded spoon collection, who are you- THE QUEEN? Come to think of it, I bet the Queen had an extensive corroded spoon collection!
It never ceases to amaze me that you find individual lost beads as beads are normally used in groups. The little brass cover might be to protect a button on an airplane that does something like expel a bomb, or activate an escape mechanism. Some sort of thing you would not want to use by accident.
Alex you could make you a walking stick that you could screw a hook in the end if needed to retrieve treasures from under the brambles or a pair of good sharp pruning shears in you to cut your way in. Your efforts will pay of some day!!!!😊❤
Ok, just guessing on the copper item, maybe it covered a button to a piece of equipment that needed to be protected so it wouldn't accidentally get pushed. Your porcelain round piece, go ask grandma I know she knows! 😊 I gasped so loud Alex when you found the scarab piece! It's awesome! Sending much love and hugs!!!!❤
I always think those smaller blobby melted bottles would be great for windchimes. Not the chimes themselves but the weight or whatever it's called that hangs in the middle and gets moved by the wind to make the chimes ring. Anyway, just my thoughts. Thank you for sharing your adventures and finds!
Some lovely bead finds today. I was willing you to take the wonky poison bottle, it was really cute. The weird looking crestware was part of a bud vase with multiple holes, I think they held five flowers in total. That scarab cabochon is beautiful, can’t wait to see what you create with it.
I was willing the same thing!! I thought she ALMOST took it, but then she talked herself out of it. I was hoping the quirkiness of it would suck her in. Maybe if it's still there next time... 🖐🏽😁
I love the music and flowers, i think the crested pottery is part of a bud vase.. I like the areas you cover that are nice and quiet and easy to find things... Love your channel ❤
Alex you remind me so much of my dear niece whom passed away last year. Loved her dearly and miss her so much. Love watching you and your mom mud larking together.
Awesome beads today Gail and Alex!! I adore watching where Mudlarking Charlotte is today, love her carnival ride. Thank you for all you share with us!!
Same here, I love searching for tiny Charlotte. I even pause the video if I can't find her before the video moves to the next scene. LOL I was however not able to find Charlotte in one of the scenes today. I am going to go back and really search for her... LOL Yeah, I know I'm crazy... But, I've come to love that little dolly and it makes me smile every time I manage to find her and the crazy places and positions she can be found in... 😂❤
I loved the undergrowth scene , especially with your National Geographic hat ! Those two beads would be perfect as earrings ! That scarab is wonderful . Can’t wait to hear what you found in your garden . Thank you for sharing your foreshore finds 🙏🏻
When my sister and I were small children, we learned how to break the dead small branches off (so that we could make our hidden paths to the fence to visit with the children who lived on the other side. We would play together through the fence wire until our mother, or their mother, called. Then we would crawl, very quickly, back through the blackberry bushes without mother knowing that we were visiting and playing with the children who lived on the farm next to ours. You can break off the dead branches and weave the ones that cannot be broken up and out of your way. Anna and I could crawl through those hidden paths without getting our garments torn or our skin cut. Our younger brothers joined us when our mother started letting them follow us. Needless to say, both sets of parents were very upset when they learned how long we had been visiting and playing together. They were trying to keep all of us from catching Poliomyelitis (Polio). After one end of the fence fell down, we played together everyday (until we moved away).
Awww..you lucky duck..scarab find..my favourite ❤ And the terracotta ladies head..so pretty I could watch you all day finding beads n marbles Lovely to see you both 😊
The brass cap looks like it came off a pram wheel,it covered a greasepoint in the hub and protected it against dust etc, love the videos and the exuberance from you both
Omgoodness, once you brought up the "Sun Lady" , from last weeks episode, and actually had a name to search for, I've been on a TWO HOUR, WILD GOOSE CHASE, learning sooooooo much about Schafer and Vater comical bisque pottery! They're WILD and so fun, interesting and VAST! Thank you for sharing your fabulous find and I personally cannot wait for the next exciting "THING" you find that sparks "the need to know"!! lol Love you ladies! 🥰
Quite the array of unusual bits and bobs and like you, I don't have a clue, although the thing that fits another thing is probably the best explanation 😂 Jam pour thru ?? makes sense to me 🤨 Those two lovely beads certainly look like Neiger style, I love their work. Another great adventure and poor Alex even lost hair for the cause ☹ Thank you for making my day ! Love and hugs 🥰🥰 xx
I found a similar brass cover on google. It was listed as a vintage brass utilities valve cover. Yours is much smaller but could be a similar function. Great finds. Loved all the beads you found. Impressive. ❤
That little brass piece might be a switch cover a lot of times on ships and planes you want to cover your switches so they don't get pushed accidentally. Love the vlog as usual!😊
Alex , I would swear there was another bead right under the first you found. Oh well, one for you to find next time you two go back😊 Thank you ladies for another great adventure!
Alex you make me smile , you seem undeterred getting tangled in the bushes also you would go down a mouse hole for the treasures. You Mam Gail love it to and I’m using the expression you use when you like a find (I love it). You’re both truly amazing and love you both for entering my home by means of your fantastic channel.. Thank you for sharing.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Alex! haha too funny seeing you try to get into the brush haha LOVE IT. EDIT: 5:59 If i was to venture a guess, i would say part of a electric lamp of some kind.
Those multi-colored beads may justify taking your sifter to check for more in that area...the scarab and the piper are very cool finds...looking forward to next week Karl from eastern Canada
Alex, that brass piece that opened and closed looks like a toilet lid for a dollhouse. I've been watching the miniature channel from Kit and Caboodlers, can you tell? What a wonderful bead day you had! That scarab cabochon is amazing. Another wonderful video.
I found a 1919 half penny in the garden last week. I know there used to be some cottages here and I've found lots of bits of clay pipe, brick, slate glass and pottery. It always makes me wonder what they would say if they could talk...lovely explore as always!
I love the silly tiny dollie with the finds. Always makes me laugh...Also have to laugh every time you two seem to be surprised to be covered in mud...It's called MUDlarking! LOL. When you go to the beaches where you know there will be bushes & brambles, I think Alex should plan to put her hair up under a hat completely so she doesn't have to worry about it getting caught in things.. Might think about bringing a pair of garden snippers just in case you come across something under the brush that you just have to investigate! Wonderful video, ladies...as per usual. Le gach beannachd.
The brass piece with the lid on the hinge I think you will find is an old spy hole cover for on the door so you could stop someone looking in from the other side.I know they used to be covered at one stage…Thanks for taking us along..Love n Light 🥰
Wow at the beads! But the scarab is the best. It's amazing and my guess would be czechoslovakian or could even be the orient or Egypt. Just stunning and such a special piece for a ring or necklace. Nice find. Very sorry about the loss of the jewelry but that was a horrible time in history.
What I loved about this episode: Alex's smirk after climbing out of the bush, Gail saying you're not hip if you don't have a spoon collection (which I don't so, clearly, I am not hip 😂) and the high five my 4 year-old gave me when Alex found the scarab cabochon. Awesome finds this time ladies!
Watched this on Sunday and was laughing out loud as Alex got stuck underneath the brambles! With a twig in her face, hair & hat a mess, She handled her escape well- I might have been screaming! 👏🏻👏🏻❤️ your perseverance!
I think your circular brass thing with scallops coming down off of it. My great aunt gave Me a beaded bag with the top of the bag having telescoping in and out with a wonderful brass thing with holes in it to anchor the material of the lining and the beaded bag anchored ion to the lining👍🏽💰
Hi i am happy to see you two again i haven't been on here watching you two for a while i got a new computer and it took my sister a while to get it set up it is good to be able to watch you two again.keep up the good work.
I think that white ceramic piece is part of a coffee pot. Like the ones in motel rooms. I think if you cast that horses head in silver, you could sell alot of them at equestrian gatherings. I love your videos. I always learn something new.
Last week's mystery find - the ceramic round disc with ridges running along it - I have solved the mystery! It's what you put in a pan of water, that you then bring it to the boil - for boiling potatoes, or whatever - and the ceramic disc stops the pan from boiling over. You can still buy these here in Australia at kitchen ware shops. My mum had a few of them - and they work - you should test yours out! Also, the reason there was an Egyptian revival in the 1920s, in jewellery, fashion and architecture, was because the Englishman Howard Carter discovered Tutankhamun's tomb full of fabulous treasures, in 1922. Amazing!
I think the white glass base with the hole in the center is the base of a small lamp. I had a lamp with the exact same base. I also think the broken head had a bead to help glue it back together. I loved all the finds today.
Another fun adventure! Thank you both so much! I think the white ceramic thing might be for single floral stems, that way they stand upright better. The small metal piece with the flap looks like a peep hole cover (inside) for a door.
