Oh, Jason,you do bring such joy!! The butterflies take my breath away..made me open my little treasure chest of jewellery and feel the joy! You make everything you own so relevant.You wear your jewellery so on point.May the gift you are giving us with the hard work and time,come back to you tenfold!!
Jason what you see as imperfections make you perfectly you!! I am constantly surprised with the extent of your collections. You have surrounded yourself with beauty is every form, and for a multitude of uses. You bring us joy, education, beauty and laughter. Would love to see a daily video, but you definitely need some days off. No burn-out allowed!
Hi Jason, I am over the moon thankful for knowing you and our instant connection that grew into a supportive friendship! Thank you for all you've done, hugs! I've watched this twice and of course, everything is amazing and I learned new things to look for. ♥♥🧡
Bravo darling! Pottery, and those lamps!!! Then you take us on this magical ride through time. I loved them all. Your ending was flawless, staring with the Egyptian piece, and finishing with England's butterfly and dragonfly! Honey, both of my shoes would be up on that stage with you. I cannot tell you how profound, emotional, and healing it has been going on this journey. I lost my dad a couple days before Christmas this year, and this has brought everything he taught me about quality, lines, color, eras and and so much more to the surface. So again, thank you for opening my eyes, and helping me realize I can do this.
Just wanted to share that I adore you and the channel. Such beautiful items, and informative chit-chat that is entertaining to boot. It's like listening to an old friend.
Hi Jason I’m ready for treasure let’s go Thelma is a treasure herself to her students her family us every one humble brilliantly shows her finds with humble kind knowledge love my Thelma
On one wonderful day i was honored to see the monarch migration in san diego. There were so many i had to stop because i could not see ti continue driving. One of the most amazing thing ever.
❤❤❤Amazing. My aunt raises the caterpillars, then butterflies and releases them, 100s of them. They then all fly to Mexico for the annual migration. Unreal indeed ❤❤❤
Jason, thank you for taking your precious time and energy to become the teacher you never thought you would!. Exquisite presentation of your collection, indeed! I have been thrifting all my life but not to the same extent. Mostly useful items, and to decorate.
I’m Mexican & Native and those Pieces feel like sacred smoke signals through the airwaves. Your are such a good gate keeper of all this sacred art🦉🌠🙏🏽🦋it is immeasurable joy!
This is one of my favorite videos you have made! You have made me so happy sharing your insect and bug collection. They’re so beautiful and amazing. I have a small growing collection of insects and seeing yours is so inspirational.
I so love the insect pieces, the care and workmanship that brings them so beautifully to life always goes to my heart. The Greeks believed the butterflies carried the souls of lost loved ones. My dear Richard in in a decline, but coming home on the 4th to be with me until the end. Thank you Jason for sharing these even though you are tired. You know that so many people love you, and enjoy your teaching and enthusiasm. Always remember that I love you more than words.❤️🖤🇨🇦
Butterflies are very special to me as my beloved mother loved them so much; I was in happy tears seeing your beautiful collection TSVM for sharing! I have a bunch of sets of butterflies from the 70s I treasure even tho they’re dime store finds back when my mother a gifted them to me. I hope to one day own some as beautifully special as yours. Much love! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️🦋🏍
❤❤❤ As a collector of art pottery, I love all of the pieces you’ve shown. Thank you for sharing all of your treasures. It’s been a rough week for me and your videos have been my vacation from life.
Thank you for all that you do.I look forward to your daily videos with so much anticipation .what a beautiful world you have created with such wonderful baubles, the insects just blow me away.I have always wanted to work in the lapidary,metal smiting field.and wow!!!your collection gives me such inspiration.Just like you,yourself move me almost to tears.thank you for taking the time for all of us.one of your biggest fans.❤❤❤❤
Just wow Jason, I'm over the moon with those beautiful bugs. Thank you so much for sharing them with us and also thank you for sharing your volumes of knowledge that were all here soaking it all up like little sponges. Love and hugs, Susan ❤
That Brendler vase is absolute magic. Love the slag glass lamp. That’s def a keeper! Wow! What a collection of enameled pins! Omg…the Native American and Mexican jewelry…. Speechless… and of course, I love your Bohemain garnet butterfly. All three of those words together have a lot of meaning for me. ❤julie
Oh I can’t believe someone knocked out the glass to make it match…I’m speechless and horrified. Been slowly collecting pre 1950s silver dragonfly jewelry for some time. What you showed today is a pearl without price. Wonderful video.
Hi Jason! I just wanted to let you know that I have been watching you every day on my Firestick but I am not signed into RU-vid on that so I can't comment on each of your amazing daily videos! So, i am popping in on here to tell you how much I have loved these daily gems! I truly love seeing your thrift store finds and how much you originally spent on your treasures. I swear, each collection you show us, I realize I have at least one or two examples of each of your collections and I also have never learned more from a fellow collector, than from you! I also love how funny and genuine you are and I always giggle when you say "let's not fight over dates.. ." :) Keep these delightful videos coming please! This one, I love so much, because my father was an entomologist so I grew up loving butterflies, moths and scarab beetles! 😍🤩🥰
Jason, I love your longer vids!!! The longer,the better!!!! Thank you, Dear Friend, for sharing your vast collections and your even larger knowledge!!! I am starting a small venture into ebay jewelry sales. I plan on going to some thrift, pawn and antique stores tomorrow...yes, tomorrow and hope to find some things to post for sale. You, Dear Sir, have inspired me to finally do this,so, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Wish me luck!!! Much love, JoAnn!!!!!!
Jason, every time I watch one of your videos and I watched them often. Trust me like everyone it’s like entering Wonderland I’m so amazed. Thank you so much for sharing.
Jason! I'm quickly becoming obsessed with your videos because you're a joy to watch, easy to listen to, fascinating to learn from and you have all the best collections of everything you love so much and they're all the same things that I love! I don't have collections because I can't afford to, but watching your videos you've grown my confidence in how to get started and become profitable in that reseller market if I eventually decided to take that leap. You're energy & enthusiasm are vibrant -even on camera its something about your personality which says to all of us watching your videos that you'd be a great friend to get to know & a person who you can really trust to do business with. I'd bet your friends would tell us all that you give great advice, you're fun, very loyal and trustworthy. I can't wait to see all your future videos you've talked about doing! Thanks for making this last week so much fun on your channel!

Or you could be my little brother of 2 years younger !!! I make jewlery in silver with stone.... i paint i love art its for that i love so mutch old jewlery and antiquity, the construction fascinating me ! Are you à aquarius my Dear !? Have a wonderfull week end ! 😊
SOPHIE❤❤❤ THANK YOU. I will show my coworkers this comment because they tease me that my shows aren't funny and I'm my biggest fan. 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤ so much love your way❤❤❤
Great video and pieces of art! Dragonflies are such graceful creatures. Of course I loved the Navajo pieces but they were all so beautifully made! I have 2 Zuni Dragonflies that I wear frequently, they are contemporary. I have my eye on an older one that I want! I can't say it enough, I learn so much from you! Thank you! Dana
Wow i thought the lamps were amazing then you come out with the butterflies, moths and bugs, absolutely stunning collection. Love your excitement for the pieces cuz, love you and heaps of hugs 😘❤️🤗🤗
Jason, your kindness , humour and awesomeness comes through the screen just like you were in my living room! You need to know how much joy and smiles you bring to a lot of us just for being you. Of course we all love your knowledge and talent and are very thankful that you share it with us. But you make your videos so much better just for being you. Have a good evening my friend ❤
Jason I love your videos so much. I rarely leave comments because I’m usually watching on TV and doing listening on my phone. I’m a clothes reseller with a passion for jewelry. Anyway, I want you to know how much I have learned from your videos. Most of the time I rewind and watch certain sections over and over so it sinks in. Some videos I’ve watched the whole thing multiple times. Your collection is amazing but it’s YOU that’s the real treasure. I’m a Jason Forever ❤ Thank you!!!!
Stunning vases, lamps and brooches! Love the plique a jour ones I want to collect them if I can find them lol. Butterfly wings brooches are so beautiful too! Thanks for sharing and glad the stressy bit of the week is hopefully over.
Hello Jason....firstly, "there are no friends at an auction"...a life lesson I learned early in my auction hurts at the hands of my best friend at the time (he won the item, I learned the lesson and I play with item every time I house sit... :0) Secondly, the RU-vid channel "Traditional Navajo Teaching" has a wonderful video concerning silver and turquoise and its significance to the Dine people (it's a wonderful channel). Just from what I have seen, your native peoples jewelry collection is one of, if not the best collection east of the Mississippi and one from outside the lands in which such wonderful things were made...I'm so very happy they found their ways into your loving custodianship. :0)
Hi Jason! Thank you so much for yet another eye-candy indulgence of a video. I absolutely love unique old lamps, so it was a treat to see those. The lotus shade is absolutely incredible! But the insect jewelry!!!!!!! Now THAT was something extra, extra fun to see. My favourite pieces were the gold bumblebee and house fly. There's something just magical about insect jewelry made to the real life size of the little critter it's depicting. So cute, and precious, and fun. Love these videos and you!!! ❤❤❤
Nice collection of butterflies and dragon flies. My mom used to have a gold diamond and plique a jour dragon fly pin. It was actually designed and made by her friend who is a jeweler in Kansas City named Keith Forbis. I have a few butterfly enamel pins also.
You are amazing and continue to leave me speechless and drooling with your knowledge and treasures. Thank you so much for sharing and with such enthusiasm 🤩
So much information and I really enjoyed your content and your teaching. And yes you are a teacher because I don’t know anything about this and I really enjoyed learning from you Jason Adams. Thank you so much for all the hard work you do for the people that love and cherish Jewellery!
Good Afternoon Jason. How is your day going? I should be working but I decided to join you instead, I couldn’t resist the color and beauty and the opportunity to learn so I can find treasures of my own. You totally rock!
I can tell you from experience how hard it is to solder pieces of a lamp shade together….. the size of the lamp and the form of it and the weight…. At least when I made a set, I had a styrofoam form to work the pieces on! What a beauty
Hi Jason so glad you did some vases. I have been casually collecting the petite one's cause I like their fancyciness. I am now interested in all sizes eand brought a unique looking one today. I want to collect and also sell. Thanks for some info on them and I am looking forward to learning more.
I have a small collection of Native American (Zuni, Santo Domingo, Navajo, Ohlone) pieces. Most are purchased directly from the artists and some is old pawn. I love it so much. I also have some Taxco. I love Taxco silver and amethyst combo.
Seeing your flying friends bring happiness to me. Amazing! When you begin your journey on learning about turquoise, my hope is that it is absorbed by you easily. There are so many mines, and names of stones, natural or stabilized. In recent years, the imported turquoise from places like Egypt, China and Persia..beautiful! There is a Navajo silversmith by the name Darryl Dean Begay that has a video on youtube that brings to light, just a small sample. Sorry this comment is so long!! Love ya!
This was a great video! You have so many beautiful pieces. Yes, I would love to see how you style/wear your insect jewelry! Or even how you display your collection when not being worn. I have a collection of about 20 (butterflies, moths, beetles, bees, dragonfly, and flies), but have absolutely no skills when it comes to styling them on myself or displaying them in my home decor.
So much beauty. My house is pretty deconstructed, for painters, so stressful. I know I will enjoy putting things back, I did a big purge. My garden get's me outside to recharge, it's summer here, so can do barefoot.
