Videos back up! 🙌🏻Thank you for watching! Let us know which find you'd like to see in the window of wonders this week! For more adventures 👣 -- www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc8jD...
That's actually a pretty neat fossil! You might expect it's from a lepidodendron (a scaly tree-like fern) because it's in such an old material as shale near a coal seam but the morphology of the scale imprints shows that it's a lepidote (an early bony fish)! It's a nice big imprint too since the fish were only ~30cm long. Notice how the scale shape changes on one side to be more squished. That's where the fish's body curves around so you either have the dorsal half of the middle of one side of the fish or the back of the fish transitioning to the tail of a really big one. I'd guess it's Lepidotes maximus but you'd have to ask a paleoichthyologist to be sure. It has my vote for the window of wonders.
Edit: It's shale so it'll degrade in water. Best to just keep it dusted.
That’s really interesting! Thank you so much for the information. We believe the fossils we find here are the shale thrown out from fire coal, we’ll have to keep our eyes peeled for more! 🥰
@@NorthernMudlarks What an incredible lot of treasures you found. Alex, you've got eagle eyes to have spotted that teensy little lavender bead. Your cat certainly was enjoying the sunshine and grass.
My vote for the windowsill of wonders is the lover's ring, key, the Irish pipe and thistle pipe. Hope you both have a Happy Easter weekend. Greetings from eastern North Carolina!
I love how you’re showing the item cleaned up and giving info as you find it! Really keeps your attention! ❤️
I love the little history bits as well.
Yes.
Agreed! Love the history that goes along with the item, thank you!
I agree 1000%!
I also love the formatting!
Yes! I was thinking that same thing. Thank you so much!
Fantastic 👏 👏 I love the ring 💍 your mum found 😀 put that ring on a pedestal in the window seal, Congratulations on your beautiful 1800s and ring 💍 it's my favorite !!! You two have made a killing this day, O yes, I almost forgot !! Alex, your pug nose puppy 🐶 needs a pedestal as well, and in the window it goes !! Love it 😀 this video made me feel so happy !!! And so much fun, see you next time !!!
Love the sponge wear all around the dandelion ❤ I do think the little pug deserves a window seat 🥺
Another great video. Can’t wait to see the find of a lifetime next week. I think that little Pug dog should have pride of place on the window this week
LOL! Barbie is decked out for Halloween and it's only April! My vote this week is the pug dog for the window. I had a great time virtually mudlarking with you both, as I always do. ❤
I can't believe you spotted such a tiny bead, almost the size of this period . .
I'm grateful to have the opportunity to join you on your trips, thank you.
The thing you found was the handle of a tiered cake stand my grandmother had one and was very proud of it, it always came out on hay days and holidays! Xx
I agree
I was torn between cake stand top or top of a floor based ashtray.
I was on lamp finial! haha
@@ivanne61 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaàààza lot you
A boo boo reply 👩🦳🌺
I'm glad you got the sound fixed. I couldn't even leave a comment.
It looks like it could be a handle for a relish/condiment tray.
We had delete and re-upload the video. We have no idea what went wrong!
Hello! To go on the window sill this week the wee pug dog is my choice. It was difficult to choose between the dog and cut glass bottle stopper. Also, the blue iridescent bead is beautiful.
Thank you for your wonderful videos, so beautifully edited
Amazing finds ☺
Pug dog for the window 👍
"It's a dolls house dog cat thing!" Absolutely priceless.🤣
Oh my goodness that tiny Pekingese or pug dog is adorable 34:46
It’s like a miniature version of those classic Staffordshire figurines.
And the Adult kangaroo/wallaby with the baby Joey is beautiful and I suspect very unusual too.
38:25 the nail clippers, as we know them today were first manufactured in the mid to late 1870s.
So those nail clippers just might be a lot older than you think 🙂
Looking forward to next week!! I vote for the Scottish Thistle Pipe for the window!! Sending gratitude and Joy from the state of Delaware in the United States.
I vote for the tiny pug dog for your weekly window. Thank you and carry on!
The way they make tiny glass beads is amazing. They pull the glass out until it's very thin then quickly wind it around a pin rod. This creates the tiniest of beads. Incredible.
Yaaaay my girls are on!!!!!
Aww yay! 🥰🙌
WOW! THAT RING IS BETTER THEN THE KEY! WHAT AN AWESOME FIND GAIL!
Wonderful finds :) I vote for the little dog figuring.
Go again! Go again!!! For the window, the pug and the Irish pipe!!!! Thanks.....wonderful fun!
Wonderful video! I vote for the beautiful pipe with the leaves on it for the window!
In the window please display that tiny pug (dog) figurine as it is in perfect pristine condition considering its years. Besides everybody loves a good tiny animal figurine.❤️
The four unusual four pipes were interesting especially with the information you found. The little pug is a darling. I liked the second marble in the row. With the chip out of it, the colors in it are more vibrant. Thank you for taking us along. God bless.
Your cat looks just like my old guy, Milo, did in his younger days. He'll be 16 this year and is getting thin in his twillight.
YAY!! It’s back!! I was so sad that I might not get to watch a new video by my favorites!! Much love from the USA!!
Great video again with wonderful finds. The lovers ring and Scottish pipe for the Window of Wonders for us please 🙂
Of course you put the skull on Barbie's head! 🤣And I think the ring, the dog and the fossil should go into the window. Enjoy watching you two every week!
The pug, thistle pipe, and fossil bark (we find very similar in sandstone where I live) are my picks this week. The grouping of wonky bottles also look so lovely together.
Trash or treasure? Treasure or trash? It’s all the same in Gail’s 🙌🏻. I’ve seen you two lovely artists turn all sorts of things into beautiful objects, so nothing is rubbish. I get terribly excited by little frogs just now. My husbands friend arrived with a bucket 🪣, inside was a frog for my pond. ( we are in NZ) I could not have been more delighted if he had arrived with flowers & chocolates (which is saying a lot as I’m a confirmed chocoholic). So treasure is always in the heart of the finder. The groove in the pipe is just heart wrenching. A direct link to the past owner, although I cringe at the thought of damage to 🦷 teeth, throats and lungs. This morning we went to the funeral of a friend who died of esophageal cancer - smoking related - too, too early. I’m glad we know now, and the pipes are an historical item of curiosity. How many of the pipe smokers went too early? So sad.
Another fantastic, interesting video. Thank you 🐣😊🌟😊🐣
Thank you for taking us with you. And what amazing finds!! The German marbles were gorgeous, but, oh my, the ring with the engraving took my heart. In a close 2nd place, with the fantasy of it, was the brass key. The imagination can take you to so many fantastical places. The tiny puppy is so cute and the thistle pipe is still so crisp and beautiful. What a lovely day!! I'm already excited for next week!! Stay safe out there!!!
That is a clock winding key that you found. The coal fossil I think is either from a plant or a reptile skin. A cake stand handle is what one of your finds looks like to me. Perhaps the ceramic pug needs a place in the window. Was pleased this video became viewable. Lying in bed on my birthday morning having breakfast watching the Northern Mudlarks. Yeah! Thanks.
Happy birthday!! 🎂 Hope you have a lovely day. We think you’re right about the cake stand handle! ☺️
Happy Birthday❣🎂🎁🎈
What an exceptional find, that wedding ring, the poem was beautiful. Anne Boleyn doll is cute. the German marbles are beautiful and belong in the window.
I think the pug doggie and the beautiful ring should be showcased in the window! Another great mudlarking trip!
I love watching your adventure. hearing all the stories and learning about the history behind the finds. xx
You both find the most beautiful things Thankyou very much.
What a lovely exposition on the brass ring! I believe the fossil is Lepidodendron, one of the common tree ferns of the Carboniferous period, when much of today's coal was formed. It had a scaly bark often mistaken for reptile or fish scales.
My pug, Poppy, was curled up sleeping on my lap while I watched the video and I startled her awake by shouting “Awww, it’s a pug!” when you found this week’s wee animal. 😂 So I must vote for the pug. Also loved the fish fossil, the sweet ring, and the thistle pipe. Good pickin’ site, ladies!
The little pug dog figurine, the thorn pipe, and the cut glass Bottle stopper, and the Key are all great nominations for the window
Hello Ladies, the very very tiny seed bead is what we call a “charlotte” as they are the smallest seed beads used. I use them all the time in my jewellery work.
The metal handle I use to have something like it on a afternoon tea cake platter which you would hold out to your guests to let them help themselves to a small cupcake.😊😊
Maybe one day when I finally get back to the UK I might just go for a fun time mudlarking myself when I return home to the Shetland’s 😊
It’s so hard not to try to reach through the screen to pick something up. When you asked us if we could spot the find, I thought you were reaching for the blue bead a foot to the left of the pipe. So many things to choose for the window, but I’d choose the ring or the pug. I loved your kitty posing by the beautiful sponge ware pieces. I’m glad you were able to save the video!
Have a marble collection from the years I lived in Germany. I didnt know there was anything special about them. Learn something new every day. I keep them in an English tea tin. Think it says Harrods or something. Must be from the 70s or earlier as I got it junking or at a flea market.
Well I had sound and the video. I think the pug should go in the window of wonders and the thistle pipe. Great finds all day and can't wait to see next weeks. Goldilocks was lovely too and the marbles and bottles, its all lovely. Looking forward to next time we go hunting together as you really make my day. XX
Can't reply on the latest video as youtube is playing up so sending you this.
Fairy Acorn
The pug is what I choose !🦋💛🦋💛🦋💛🦋💛🦋💛
My vote for the WoW.....the ring, the Thistle pipe and the pug dog. But I really love the key and the shape fossil as well. Much love from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA! 🥰🥰
Love the thistle pipe and the little pug figure are special. Thank you for taking us along.
I vote for the little pug, the brass ring and the pipe with the thistle leaf design to go into the window. Can't wait for next week's video. Sounds great. 🌷
Love the kitty appreciating the spongeware! That tiny dog is amazing, it needs to go in the window along with the thistle pipe, that is really nice too... The key is quite mysterious, can't wait to see what it unlocks next week.
That headless doll would make such a fun little vase!
The little dog and the thistle pipe for the window please and thank you for taking us along on your river lark once again.
I love the amount of respect and love you show each find! Lovely!
For her finds but not the beach. Who breaks a cod neck glass bottle to get the marble and leaves the broken glass on the sand?
Fantastic finds once again ladies! I think the wedding band has definately earned its place in your window this week! The long handle type thing eith the loop at the top looks like the top handle off a cake stand to me. I've made a few myself and the modern ones are very similar looking, it would be interesting to see if it has a thread inside at the bottom of it. Thank you for a lovely virtual trip out once again to your mystery foreshore ladies x
Lovely lark with you ladies as always! The pug is precious and deserves a place in the window!
I love that you are thinking about melting the knackered marbles- that will be fun to see! Thanks for all the joy and wonder!
So many fun finds!! I like to look with you. I’m always thinking you’re going for one thing. But then you come up with something else. It’s so much fun Treasure Hunting with you.
Great video as usual. I think the ornate item with a large loop is a handle for a triple plate standould would screw into the top plate with other pieces of stand between each plate screwing inbetween the stand pieces and the centre of each plate. I'm sure I saw a small hole in the other end. 😊
Tidbit tray...
I thought the same that it was the handle from a plate stand. I can almost imagine the sandwiches and cakes all ready for a special occasion 😋
I love all the spongeware, and of course the little dog. In the window, though I'd like to see the thistle pipe. You always get so many great finds, it's hard to choose just one. I'm waiting for you to make another spongeware video. I'd like to see you stick to the old style designs though. I've never seen anything like that here in the States. I love that it's regional. Good day mudlarking, Girls!
I love that key...it looks like there's a heart-shaped center...and the 'love ring'..
Hi ladies, I am really excited to see what you find today too! ( : Yayyyyyyy! ( :
I love old brass keys! Yesss! The little doll bowl is so cute too! I love treasure chests! ( : I agree...the key is a treasure as well! It cleaned up sooo beautifully! ( :
I love the shard of pottery with the beautiful blue bird on it and a bunch of sponge wear! ( :
Yayyyyyyy! You found a finger ring! It is sooo wonderful! 1889 with a heart! Love your beautiful poem to go with it! Brass rings. So sweet and romantic! ( :
I love little panel bottles too! ( : Sooo cool you found a fossil. It looked like some sort of animal skin fossilized! ( : Yes. Gail. That is definitely a whole pipe imo! ( : You are the pipe person today. Gail! Sooo awesome! ( : Yayyyyyyy Alex, you found a pipe bowl and stem too! Plus a stopper! ( : Wow, Gail! Another pipe bowl again and again! That's amazing! It's a pipe bowl day on the foreshore today for sure! Lol! ( :
What a unique metal find you just found. Alex! Sooo pretty, though! ( ; And a huge clay marble! Too bad you guys didn't have a buffer and you guys could polish and smooth out the marbles once again! Ya know? Ohhhh . A thorny pipe bowl!! I love those! ( :
I didn't know about the history of sponge wear. Thank you for that interesting knowledge about this beautiful pottery! Oh wow, a whole figurine, just minus the head. Do you have any golden haired heads you have found? You can glue it to the top of this figurine and Frankie Stein recreate, bring back to life. This beautiful figurine! Sarah is great at Frankensteining items! ( : I love the sweet little bottle you found with the bubbly glass! ( : It is sooo awesome! ( : Wow, it was a cold mold glass bottle.
Not only do I enjoy watching you lovely ladies lark, but the manner in which you tell the history of the items you find is sooo beautiful and almost lyrically, with the amazing musical compositions accompanying your speaking, make it such a pleasure to watch and listen to your videos! Thank you so much for all you do! ( :
How gorgeous, more sponge wear and a pipe. Then a beautiful German marble next to an awesome coin! ( : Wow. Good eyes. Gail! I would not have noticed the headless cow, I don't think! It blended right in! ( : You and Alex both have amazing eyes for beautiful, mysterious finds from the past! ( : Wow. The cobalt blue bead you found was gorgeous, Gail! And you got a leg up for reward! Yayyyyyyy! ( : Holy moly, why did someone leave such gifts for you guys! That pipe bowl you got, Alex, embossed with thistle leaves is absolutely gorgeous! Wow! And, now you guys got an arm and a leg! Yayyyyyyy! ( :
A cod ball! Yesssss! ( : Free that cod ball! Woo hoo! ( : Oooh ..that beautiful face will go great with your mom's figurine body she found. Frankenstein them together like Sarah does in her craft videos! ( : Yessss! ( : I think you found a cat! Yesss! It is sooo cute! ( : I should've recognized the pug face, we have a pug at our house, Bug the Pug! ( :
Yayyyyyyy! Another German marble! German Marble Day! Woo hoo! ( : 4 German Marbles! What a beautiful Australian plate too, Gail! ( : And an Irish pipe too! I am Scottish and Irish, mostly, so I am excited! I want to see the Scottish and Irish pipes in the window this week, selfishly! Lol! ( :
You two give me such great joy watching you lark together! ( : I live watching your sweet, smart larking! Have a wonderful week til I see you again!❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗 P.s.love your beautiful kitty at the end! Sooo fun to see such a special treasure at your video's end! ( :
Beautiful finds! Amazing pipe the thistle leaf such great detail! I vote for that and the German marbles and the wee dog for the window display! I think your handle was either from a baby's rattle or a bell that one would ring for service if one was confined to a bed. Your fossil is quite amazing, I too think it was from a fish, awesome detail! Love the doll heads, makes you wonder what the rest of the figurine would of looked like. You should cast the thistle leaf pipe, really is a beautiful leaf and pipe! As a artist I love the old compass! I wonder how many children wrote on those slate boards and daydreamed while they learned to write their thoughts? I would find it very hard not to dig and sift that area for more treasures of the past. Lovely video!
Always a pleasure spending time with you
Another fun lark with The Northerns.
I'm a new subscriber. It's so wonderful to have a hunting partner to share excitement with!!
Thank you ladies! Let’s do it! Thank you for always being there! 🌹from California 😉
Our pleasure! Thank you for joining us 🥰
@@NorthernMudlarks your green key is amazing and the doggie too…and your kitten at play 🙈sweet …your kindness comes thru all the time … fun watch …God bless ladies 😊thank you
🌹🌹
My vote is for that lovely tiny pug. So sweet. Also can't wait for the next video, you've left us on a cliffhanger there lol. 😊😊
It was fun to watch! Great finds 👏
LOL! The skull on the Barbie. I would love to see the sweet little pug on the windowsill next week. Xo
I watched the whole video without sound! I even was able to identify a lot of the treasures you found from seeing your past videos. I found the silent video charming but I missed you giggles and sounds of joy at finding your treasures. I am so glad to be able to watch again, this time with sound, and find out how many items I got right! 😅 Please stay safe and be careful! ❤️❤️
Well you found some really lovely finds on this lark ladies. I adored the key all green and weathered. The thistle pipe was beautiful and so ornate and the little pug dog was so charming. I also fell most of all for the ring. I found it so sad that a treasured possession which stood for so much in someones life, ended up in the bin. Lost, but now found again.
I'm looking forward to your next episode. I'm excited to see what you found . Xx
I could watch you two Mudlark all day. You find some really great things. I don't know how you are able to stop and leave. You are both just lovely and enthusiastic. ❤🇺🇸
Some more nice finds Alex 👌 your a true English Princess, very beautiful 😍 👍🇬🇧🇭🇲🇬🇧🇭🇲 and you have such a lovely voice ❤
Hello from Northern California! I think the thing you found at 12:37 is the top part of a multi tiered serving thingy....you know, for serving tea sandwiches & scones & petite fours at afternoon tea. There would be 2-3 pretty plates ( or silver) separated by metal rods & your piece would be the top part enabling one to pick up the whole stack to move it. Well... that’s my guess. I have a couple myself.
Thank you for bringing us all so much JOY, you two women are absolutely delightful & you have brightened my days Thank you 🐾❣️
I thought that was a key to treasure then I realized you both are the best treasure out weighting everything you find. God bless you both forever .
I am addicted to your videos. Can't put them down. Wish I was there with you.
What can I say Ladies! Just another wonderful adventure! Congrats on the treasures! 👍👍
Thank you for inserting beautiful little bits of contemplative nature scenes into your videos!
I have an idea for the school slates. You could paint inspiring words or phrases on them then put a hanger on the back so they can be displayed on a wall. The smaller ones could be attached to a wood plaque. I love the fossil and the marbles and hope you are planning to film the melting of the marbles. Wonderful idea. Just when I think you can't possibly improve your already awesome channel you prove me wrong. It has been a pleasure to watch the progression of it over the years. Thank you for all of your hard work and sharing your journey.
great finds girls.love your videos. stay safe and God bless you and your families hope y'all have a good holiday
I'd love to find antique rings!
I didn’t want this video to end. So many fascinating finds. The Scottish and Irish pipes seemed to be really nicely made thankyou to both of you❤️🙏🐇🦆🦉
What a fantastic mud lark the pug figurine would look good in the window and the Scottish thistle pipe . Thanks for sharing your day with us 🥰
I had to watch this three times, my computer kept buffering and would not allow comments, but well worth all 3 viewings. My vote for the window is the thistle pipe/ tiny pug/ key/ring. Just a few favorites. Hope you have a wonderful week.
Loved the pipe with the Thistle leaves. Such amazing finds. Thanks fir another grand adventure!!
Brilliant collection today! Fascinating! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
That was realy enjoyable.i think its always calming when your down by the water.i think the little pug dog should gi into the window as a pet for Barbie but i don't think he would like the skull mask on her.so glad i was able to watch it there was no sound before.
Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️ We love being by the river. Little pug is a great choice for the window 🐕
Hi Gail and Alex. Great video. Thanks. Loved the little pug dog, such a cutie, but not half as nice as darling tabby cat at the end. I just love her. Haven't seen Schwoo or cats much lately. Love to all. Xxxx
The pug dog and small German marble for the window sill. The ring was a great find too.
The pug puppy and the peewee marble for the windowsill xx
The pug belongs in the window….Thank you for another adventure!🙌🏼 Can’t wait till next video…God Bless you 2🙏🏼♥️👋🏼🇨🇦
Love the green key Gaikl!!
The lovely thistle pipe and the wee dog would be great additions to the window 🪟🙂 You’ve got me very curious for next weeks video. Can’t wait to see what the key has to do with it 🙂
Hello Northern Mudlarks as
Always Another AweSome Video.
I Think The Key And The Cut Glass Bottle Stopper,And The Pug Should Be On The Window
Sill. If I Had A Place Like To Find Treasures I Would Never Be Home.What You Do Looks Like So Much Fun. Thanks Again For Sharing Such Great Videos😊👍
So many wonderful things again Let everything
I think the little pug puppy figuring would be wonderful.
Yay! You're back I thought you went private I panicked lol love your videos hello from USA
Loved the dog,and thistle pipe,both for window.
The kitty likes the sponge ware very much!
Yay finally got sounds! Much better.
Oh great! We still have no idea what went wrong before!
Nice seeing all your finds on Pipe Bowl River. Loved the marbles and thistle pipe bowl. Some lovely finds for the dolls house xx
Amazing new video! I just LUV you two! Hmm, I feel the tiny pug is a good window find, but then my romantic side goes over to the beautiful, stunning KEY you found. So beautiful, even has a heart shaped top. It must go to a jewelry box. I’ll wait for the next video to find out! ❣️
I just adore your videos and you both. I think the ring needs to go into the window or the little pug dog..or both. 😉
So much love to you ladies..😘😘
