Jello salads were so popular because in the past gelatin was very hard to make. Only the rich could afford to serve it. It was a very high status symbol to have on your table. Then a man named Knox started making dry gelatin from cow hooves, a by-product of the tanning industry in Gloversville NY. So now anybody could have gelatin. Mr. Knox became very wealthy and endowed his home city of Johnstown, NY with many donations and buildings. Gloversville was known as the Glove manufacturer to the world in it's day. My Mother worked in a Glove factory there that made the gloves for Queen Elizabeth on her Coronation.

Jeweler here! That ruby and diamond bracelet in white gold should fetch you a pretty penny. Those silver charm bracelets are super valuable, especially since they are as full as they are and with nice charms. Awesome haul!

I collect and sell jewelry Esp rings. I am saving my favorite for my daughter, grand daughter and nieces to go through when I pass. They know I'm collecting and saving some and I want them to be surprised like it's Christmas.

I though how someone made the charm bracelets of their travels, and now they're just in a pile. Who was that? What were they like? Did they go those places before plane travel was common? Breaks my heart. And the engagement ring and wedding band - how could that be lost to the family. My grandmother's is lost due to some blended families and poorly written wills and it kills me.

I agree, Gary Roberton. The collector had them carefully separated into different categories from what I could tell, Canadian travel, International travel and the third looked like unique ones, perhaps events? It is very nice that she kept to the sterling silver standard. :)

I have a BIRKS silver charm bracelet exactly like the first one show, I’ll have to count the charms, it is so loaded, I can’t even wear it. It’s 59 years old. I remember pretty much all the charms and when my parents bought them and where they travelled. I have some pretty unique charms. One is a pineapple from Hawaii. The body of the fruit is almost like a basket weave, so you can see through it. Inside are green fossilized lava pieces. That one was from 1972 or so. Charms back then were so detailed and well made.
@traceye.64282 роки тому
I just counted. There are 34 charms on the bracelet and a few in the box. I still have the velvet jewellery box it came in too.

Even if it’s just junk from the 80s :) We research the brands we don’t know and I’m surprised by How much I have learned. We will repair the broken stuff and create some new “pieces” from the pieces… if all else fails we make junk bags for crafters.

I've hit up thrift stores quite a bit for those junk bags of jewelry. I use them to make fancy canes and walking sticks. I've sold some for a couple hundred but often I give them away to elderly people who look like they could use a cane. I just enjoy making them and going through the junk bags at the thrift store always gives me inspiration.
