Lovely painted French vintage pigeon holes in general good condition.
We love the beautiful vintage grey paint. The pigeon holes are showing a few signs of love and use, some staining which only add to their rustic charm.
Very versatile, they can be presented horizontally as a table top piece or vertically.
A wonderful and stylish addition to any home.

Attractive little bank of table top drawers with brass handles. It is made of timber covered with faux black shagreen.
Each drawer is of equal size and provides great storage for small items.
This piece is ideal for use in an office, a bedroom as jewellery storage, or can serve as a variety of other purposes. There are a few creases to the covering material, but it still retains a very charming vintage look.
Beautiful matching pair of rare, early 19th century, hand-coloured engravings of a Weasel, Sable and Marten on one page and a Civet, Egyptian Mongoose and (rare) Genet on another. Most probably part of what may have been a wider collection of natural history engravings from the time, these are annotated in German, are marvellously hand-coloured and would look wonderful properly framed. The coloured detail is superb and these are a good size for any wall. Both pages have some mild water damage and foxing that tends to come with age, but this does not at all detract from their unique character and beauty.
An exquisite pair of miniature portraits of two gentlemen, named on the back as Mr James Burley and Mr Geoffrey Rufsell, both preachers, with original labels and dating from 1800 and 1803. The portraits are centred within gold or gilded paint ovals, with original frames and hanging hooks on the top.
A very elegant 1950s French brass and cut glass floor lamp with brass tripod legs.
This is a very beautiful lamp, in excellent condition. It is made of solid brass and has very pretty moulded glass detailing. A striking addition to any style home and a real classic.
Shade not included. The lamp is in need of wiring by a qualified electrician, but we would be happy to have this done for you if required.

Unusual small mahogany cabinet with original lock and key, featuring beautiful turned feet.
This is a beautiful quality piece of antique furniture. Rather simple, dainty and elegant, this piece would look fabulous in the modern kitchen on counter tops to store herbs and spices or in the study as a small storage solution. It also has three practical shelves and its small size means it can fit many places in the house.
Although antique, we find this piece very “up to date” with its straight lines and modern proportions.

Large vintage black industrial metal letter S from an old signage. The letter can be easily hung on the wall.
A great home accessory that looks great either hung or rested on a piece of furniture. Vintage knocks and chips, and wear and tear add to its character.
Attractive late Victorian tub chair in studded green leatherette with original casters.
This is a stylish chair which can be used as a decorative bedroom piece or an occasional chair. Its’ petite size gives it plenty of flexibility as a decorative or practical piece anywhere in the home or office.
We particularly like the vintage studding, the lovely coloured green leatherette and the curves to the arms and back.
In vintage condition, it has been reinforced under the base cushion, and is comfortable. There are a few little imperfections to the leatherette (with a slightly more visible mark – see photo), all part of being a 100 years’ old vintage item.

Beautiful black vintage industrial desk lamp designed by German Bauhaus designer Christian Dell in the 1930s for manufacturer Kaiser Idell.
It features attribution marks with two manufacturers labels, one on the top of the shade and one on the clamp. It is a very stylish, but equally practical piece with a fully adjustable gooseneck.
Although in overall good vintage condition, the item shows signs of age on the clamp, but the shade is well preserved. The lamp can be clipped on nearly all kind of furniture.
The lamp has been pat tested (with certificate inside the shade) and is in full working order. The cord is black and has a British plug.
Would be ideal for a study desk, but equally striking in the sitting room or as a bedside reading lamp.

Beautiful small French oil portrait of a country lady.
Although found amongst many others in a Paris artist studio, this little oil painting is unsigned, but immensely charming. The tight series of old original nails around its edge add to its character and charm.
Its petite size and earthy tones make it suitable to many spots of the home as a single item hung on the wall or beautifully leaning on a fireplace or side table, but equally striking within a collection of paintings.
Probably from the 1960s, this is an original rare Hungarian vintage medical lamp from Hungary.
This very attractive, collectible and rare floor standing lamp has a fully adjustable chrome directional gooseneck. It is mounted on a four legged steel stand with its original painted finish and rubber feet.
In need of rewiring, it is left with its original cord. However, we can offer a rewiring service for an additional fee if desired.
Would look striking as a reading lamp in a period or contemporary home, or loft apartment.

All 4 shades are in overall good vintage condition, some with little rust adding character.
Ideal over the kitchen table or island, but equally striking in a commercial setting. We selected them for their beautiful soft grey.

Late 19th century leather on canvas dome top travels steamer trunk, lined with ticking to the interior and with its original removable shelf showing pretty leather decoration.
Great size providing plenty of storage with original castors on the underside for easy movement. The original brass buckles for the leather belts are missing and although the main lock doesn’t fit properly, the dome lid nonetheless sits comfortably on the main body.
An ideal piece for household storage, such as linen, shoes or for winter clothes. Alternatively it would make a very stylish children’s toy box.
Good vintage condition with the right amount of wear to give that loved appeal.

Gorgeous poster of a painting of a Butterbur by artist Oktar Zejbrlik, published in 1953. This poster is an original, used in Czech state education for nurses to understand the role and value of Butterbur for medicinal purposes (combatting fevers and allergies). The colours are truly beautiful. Supported by pine rods at the top and bottom with a hanging hook. Would bring real character to any room, and it would be very difficult to find another!
