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 I positively love the atomic age (late 40s–early 60s) and this piece, although probably dating from late 60s early 70s takes inspiration from this era. This is an original and rare Mid century modern tallboy dresser by White & Newton. A beautifully designed piece in solid & veneered teak wood with atomic style ebonised knobs and retro dansette legs (ebonised wood legs with brass feet caps).

SOLD This is a uniquely designed piece which has been finely made in mahogany. It was commonly seen in solicitors offices, libraries or Schools in Britain in the 1920s. A highly practical bookcase made in three stacked sections. Indeed, this fairly large furniture item is very easy to disassemble and transport. Flat-pack furniture has been around for years, centuries even!

SOLDThis is an amazing antique 17th century sword chest. What has this swashbuckling item seen and heard over the centuries? It has even been converted to a toolbox at some point and has evidence of being used as a work bench. The remnants of paint and accidental marks only add to the story of this piece.It has only been in the shop for a couple of weeks with many admirers and has recently sold!

SOLD Highly unusual French antique architectural salvage dating from the 19th century which is believed to be a chimney topper. Stunning pierced metal body and original crackled paint patina. Picture this on a grand French chateau. Probably used to prevent birds nesting. A fantastically decorative piece which would look simply amazing with internal lighting.

SOLD This Chas. Baker & Co. tailor's advertising chair dates from the mid to late 19th century, possibly early 20th. It is made in mahogany with a gentleman’s trouser press concealed in the back. Following the opening of their first store in 1864, they expanded across London until the company were forced to close due to the outbreak of WWII in 1939. There was a boom in the British textile industry in the mid-late 19th century and the clothing trade was a very competitive business. Chas. Baker & Co were innovative in the world of advertising with decorative maps of London and printed leaflets. This great piece of history would look fab in a gentleman's tailors or equally good in a design studio. Price includes UK mainland delivery.

SOLD This fabulous piece of 1920s workmanship would have been made for the industrial office. A fantastic feature is the rotating wheel of hooks. Would look magnificent in any hallway (with a fairly high ceiling as it stands at nearly 7ft tall!).

UNAVAILABLE This stunning antique easel is made in fruitwood. It dates from the Aesthetics period which was a movement championed by Oscar Wilde. According to Aestheticism, art should be produced to be beautiful, rather than to serve a moral, allegorical, or other didactic purpose.
