Old And New

Neat blue bell button I believe off old Wrangle Jeans Jacket. The honey bee hive drawer pull is second one we found at the site. So 1800s to 1940s goodies at the old home place.

I’ve never seen one of those drawer pulls! Now I’m on a hunt…. Daughter and her boyfriend are bee keepers and he has his own honey company. It would “bee” the perfect trinket to give them!

My brother researched the first one we found it has a saying on the bottom. Its from colonial period dresser from the northeast. I will find out and relay to you. I will post a cleanup picture of it will see him Thursday.

Neat finds. Good you knew what they were. Me, they would have ended up in my junk pail.

Ron, good luck finding one on that Colonial spot you hunt! HH jim tn

Hey Ron finally found it again in my saved pictures. This was probably brought down from the north in the late 1700s - 1800s. We have found 2 of them from the site. The land was once part of Ephraim Ivey plantation from a land lottery best that I can find researching. He was originally from Virginia. Originally thought all the bricks were digging up was from Chimney but they might have had an actual brick structure. Send me message if interested in one of them. Dank
