A highly practical bookcase made in three stacked sections. Indeed, this fairly large furniture item is very easy to disassemble and transport.

SOLD
A wonderfully worn antique oriental rug dating from the late 19th/early 20th century.
The style and mixture of earthy and dark tones will work with pretty much any decor. The price reflects the condition but to me it is worth more than a perfect example- I have been looking for a Persian rug with this aesthetic for a long time!
-
SOLD This is a late 19th century country made mahogany arm chair with a beautiful curved shape. When you look closely it looks like it has been in a Wild West showdown with multiple repairs! The repairs are good and strong though with no movement. This one is a survivor :)

WHY I BOUGHT THIS ... … because there is absolutely nothing ‘standard’ about this lamp! I would go as far as to say this is the most beautiful item I have come across this year and it is a pleasure to own it. This is a late 19th/early 20th century, hand painted papier mâché, standard lamp which his from Kashmir or could be South Russian.
-
WHY I BOUGHT THIS … … because I love a striking object … This is a free form, hand blown, Chalet art glass centrepiece. It was made in Canada in around the 1960s or perhaps a little earlier. Extraordinary that it is in nearly perfect condition with no chips - just a few scratches on the underside of the base. Stunning … well, I think so!
-
WHY I BOUGHT THIS VINTAGE STOOL… … because I am drawn to utilitarian art studio furniture which is heavily marked and worn. I like to imagine the hours of contemplation spent whilst sitting on this stool. There’s even a previous owner’s initials inscribed into the side panel. The painted finish has a fab patina.

This Indian table is of coffee or side table size. It dates from the 19th century and is made from a wheel. A fantastic piece of antique upcycling! It is very heavy due to the iron supports and layers of wood held together with nails and iron brackets.

Meet ‘Jonathan’ (named by previous custodian) the mannequin torso. This piece of mannequin art is covered with pages from 50 Shades of Grey using the decoupage technique. I thought it wise NOT to show a detail of this piece! Jonathan is a very useful chap as you can adorn him with your accessories. A definite talking/giggling point!
