The statue you found without a hand is of the Buddhist goddess of compassion and mercy, Guanshiyin. Her name is generally seen as Guanyin, Quan Yin, or Kwan Yin depending on the country or culture. She is said to Lend a Hand to Those in Need. The hand is therefore made to be removable. In some traditions if you hide her hand within your house, she will look for it. As long as she is looking for her hand your household will have good luck. Another version is that you can take her hand, make a wish and once she grants the wish you then replace the hand. It did appear that there was something in the hole for her hand. I'm wondering if the hand itself was somehow pushed into the socket for it. It was very pretty and more ornate than some, I wish you had gotten it.

I had two of these and the hands were holding fishing poles and they would bobble, unfortunately in a move those arms were lost. Are they different characters? I was given them so I have no idea what far east culture they're from.

Polish plate is soup plate. Polish people prefer soup plates than soup bowls

Wonderful how honest you were with the husband that found the Polish pottery cat. Many resellers woulda smiled, said thank you and smiled all the way home! Did see that even tho you told his wife she had first dibs, it was in yor cart. Sweet of them too!

The green jar with lid held bath salts. I have it. It belonged to my grandmother, . It is probably 40 or more years old. I love it and green is my favorite color.

I love flower hand painted plates. I’m making a plate wall with them

That one was STUNNING! ❤

The horse looks art deco to me. Last week I bought a tall vase turned into a lamp base and glued shut. There were newspapers in it from 1929. That makes dating it easy.

You probably won’t see this but, I, as well as lots of other people who collect vintage, LOVE when vintage items have that type of stick-on vintage souvenir label on them. I totally agree with steering clear of most souvenir items, but the ones with those old labels have buyers, just because we like those cute vintage labels. 😊

The pottery thing with the hole is part of a tassel. There would be fringe out the bottom and a loop at the top to hang it from. Awhile ago these were hung on china cabinet door knobs for decoration.

The planter with the flower frog was a great find!! Only you could find the separate pieces and realize they go together! 👏🏻👏🏻

The cat was awesome!

Jocelyn, how sweet are your viewers that they would rather you have a treasure that they found! 🥰

the oriental statues like the one you left often came with a loose hand which fitted in the hole. Common stock Kwan Yin 1950s. Might have been in the baggies or they may sell replacements.

The blue vanity tray was so pretty

The cat is fantastic! 😻 I found a BBP bunny while out shopping this weekend, and only knew what it was from watching your videos, so thank you! 😄

I loved the froggy vase ❤

Wow….9 Isabel Bloom pieces in one haul. I would have grabbed every single one, so long as there were no chips or flaws. I live in Iowa and when my husband and I bought our first house our realtor gave us a sizable piece as a thank you. It became the first of many. LOL.

So glad you matched that frog and bowl together

To your right @ 17:30, there appears to be a Portmeirion botanica canister. I have three different Polish pottery cats that I absolutely adore! You found some great things today. Your GWs' shelves are absolutely packed! Unfortunately, the GWs in my area aren't worth going to anymore. I haven't found one thing for over two years.

Hello from Robinson, Illinois. Home of the heath bar.

Love the horse-head vase. That red! Also really like the "vase" you mentioned you'd keep & use for daffodils. So cheerful.

Oh I love ❤️ charity shops love watching your channel hello 👋🏻 from Ireland 🇮🇪

At approximately 11:42 in this video, the baggie with the little blue chair in it... those are Nora Fleming pieces. They can be really good money if discontinued.

I love that cat! The first place was so clanging today. I enjoyed going with you to both places. Thank you.

Leave it to you to find the matching piece. I've never seen so much Isabel Bloom in 1 place. I would have bought some. It sells well for me.

I love the Polish cat! What a nice gesture by one of your viewers to place it there for you to see! I have a weakness for cat, bird, dog, & horse figurines. So you know I love the horse planter you picked up.

You have to go garage selling near Seattle Wa to find glassy babies.

Omgosh! I have been searching forever for a PP cat!!

Omg the polish cat is so adorable. Fun trip 🙂

Jocelyn the Isabell Bloom that you looked at are made here in Moline Illinois just across the Mississippi from us ( I live in Iowa). It is very collectible in the Midwest Check it out!

The frog vase 🐸😍

At 3:36 you left a clear Manhattan vase, worth about $100. That has become a popular pattern again.

Oh my gosh! I had that unicorn clock I bought it for my parents for Christmas around 1983….. at a store called pic-n-save in California 😂❤

I’d love to see your sister’s boho decor style 😊 you pick up such fun pieces for her!

The horse head planter is Haegar. I have one in white and it has a sticker on it no mark on the bottom.

The glass dish with the aluminum rosebud top which you called a powder dish is really the center of a large clear glass round tray that holds cheese or dip. My mother-in-law had one just like it.

Is the colourful little pottery piece a curtain finial perhaps?

You find some pretty pieces❤

Wow....I just picked up 3 Isabel blooms last week in MN!

Nice finds!!!

Thanks 😊

Now this what CLL does. She thrifts. Love it

No matter how you look at it everything always comes back to pasta 😁

I’ve sold the momma hen and chicks vase before. Super cute.

Great video.

Being a CCL 😂❤ loved 🥰 that kitty!!

Min 15:06 Dansk brown mist whisper sugar bowl and lid, stoneware coloring with brown edge sells $15+ it’s the lid which is htf.

I've been fortunate to find several Isabel Bloom pieces and they really sold fast for good money.

Hello from southern canada

I love polish pottery 😊

I always look forward to watching your videos. I also sell on ebay and it's been fun. Love the polish pottery cat.

5:58 interesting ashtray or trinket dish? 16:49 love the butterfly

It may be acceptable in the States, but how do you not get annoyed at the prices that they ask for chipped, cracked, or damaged items!! They don't often put items on the shelves in the UK unless they are ok. 🤨

That cat is beautiful ❤

That was nice of them to let you get that great cat!

You passed up the Isabel Bloom figurines????? Wy?? I wonder how how much they cost? I would have purchased all of them!

The two silver bumpy balls in the black case is a massager. They sell for $50-$75 and they sell quick.

Some of the vintage Isabella Bloom can go for good money.

At 8:10 lower shelf is a Kuan Yin figurine . The goddess of compassion. One just sold on shop goodwill for 46.

I actually never heard of her, Isabel Bloom, and I am a rabbit ( figurine) collector. I found a signed piece it was of a running rabbit, not the usual doe eyed kind. I paid $2 sold it for $25

OH that Polish pottery cat!!!

The person riding on the goose was interesting. It was near the Italian tree thing

I would love to have the blue glass vanity !!what are your plans for it ?

Just my opinion (and I could very well be wrong; certainly not the first OR last time 🥴), but I THINK that tile thing at about 7:49 could be a turnip? Just a thought! 🤔😊

Is the mystery item the end of a curtain rod maybe?

I would buy the Bahamas wooden fish

The camel planter. I wish you had gotten that!

Judging by the mark of K, the lidless jar (not a teapot, as corrected below) @5:00 is made by the Urkainian porcelain factory Korosten. Very pretty!

It was a Soviet factory located in USSR (the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic). It was opened right after the end of WWII in 1945 and closed in 1991. Did not survive Perestroika much…. This particular mark for Korosten was used by the factory from 1960 - 1991.

Those are vintage magnets

I think those silver balls are magnetic rollers for tense muscles, etc. May be made by Nikken. Probably had a clear plastic cover. Very expensive and very effective.
