Hi George. I am a subscriber and have enjoyed this video more than words can say! I am 70, so I can appreciate all the vintage jewelry, mine as well as my mother's which I got being an only child! Thank you for the detailed history you gave of all the pieces. I have several pieces of Kenneth J. Lane's jewelry and love them. I also have a large collection of vintage parures of pins, necklaces and earrings, most of which are signed. These days, due to illness, I only go out when I visit my doctors so I don'w wear any of it anymore. I am a collector at heart and have SO much of everything...I also collect Lladro, Cloisonne, oh, I could go on forever naming all my collections. My husband says that if I die before he does he is going to sell everything at $1.00 each and at the end of the sale he will have become a millionaire! He thinks he is being funny, but he is really not far off...LOL! Keep up the good work and keep your magnificent videos coming.

I didn't see any poppet beads in all that jewelry. 😄That's OK, I have my own right here in my home. I love the old brooches and ones I have a couple old ones, but nothing with stones. I look for the old metal ones in different colors, so I can pin one on my little Vera Bradley purses. I walked into a Vera Bradley store one day and all the girls working there went crazy because I had a lime green flower pin on my purse to bring out the colors. They were all saying they wanted to find some too. I also have my mother's leather autograph book from her high school and what a riot it is to read the autographs. I wish I were closer to you so you could look at some of my things. I actually do have poppet beads that I have had since childhood. I am 77, so that gives you an idea of how long I have had them.

Oh George! I've loved everything you've brought to us but this day!! I have been sitting in my drive, gobsmacked by the beauty you showed us. At one point, I realized I'd been holding my breath! Another, I found myself verclempt, moved to tears by these gorgeous, delicious, phenomenal brooches. I've worn them everyday of my 35 year career, all thrifted & I have some beautiful ones but I've tended to be drawn to the fun & funky ones, the bigger the better. Since retirement, I've began to use them in decorating, placing them in strategic places, crafting with some, framing others in small vintage frames, placing them in small bottles, vases, jars~esp the tremblers & the bigger bling. But nothing I've seen compares with the staggering beauty you showed. Ok, watched it twice thru, I'm freezing. I'll be watching it again, trying to absorb the info you are sharing. I recently told my fav resellers I will only buy 4" & above to try to limit my buying. At first it was met with disbelief, but Jeana, Trisha & others have met that challenge a tad too well, LOL.

About 7-8 years ago myself along with probably a dozen other sales reps (We work for a 102 year old Chicago based restaurant supplier) were flown to WV to the Homer Laughlin China plant, Fiestaware probably best known for but hand painted and decal applied custom plates were a real art form to view the making of. A lot of classic plain white China lines as well. The most incredible part was the showroom I believe is not even open to the public in the 2nd floor where every China ever produced was on display. As amazing as the 150 year old built in cabinetry that displayed it all. They’ve been purchased by Steelite China since along with Hall ceramics located not far from the HL plant. It was like going way back in time watching the many employees in the factory with the brick floors made of oak bricks!
