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, and certainly characterful, 1920s tool or domestic item storage cupboard. Possibly estate-made, this pine, mid-height cupboard can be used as a great utility or housekeepers cupboard in the modern home. It can be fixed to a wall like a kitchen cupboard, be floor-standing or rest on a table or kitchen surface. It is ideal as a receptacle for domestic cleaning items or, with its shelves amended, as a bookcase.
We fell in love with its character and have kept it completely untouched on the inside. It features hooks, shelves and a little wooden tray for clever storage of loose items. The symmetrical steel locks are original and stunning and open and shut beautifully, affixed to steel insets which are most unusual.
A cupboard with a different look, unusual shape and immense charm.

Probably from the 1950s, this is a superb just off white industrial iron medical apothecary cabinet in great vintage condition.
The bottom cupboard has the original timber shelf, whilst the top glass section of the cabinet has one glass shelf. More glass shelves can be easily added if required. The top and bottom double doors are secured with turning hooks.
There is a little bit of rusting and a few knocks on the paint finish here and there, but this adds to the vintage mid century authenticity of the piece, and are by no means extensive. The piece is generally in good vintage condition.
The cabinet would make a stunning addition to a large bathroom or kitchen, or a fantastically cool bookcase.
We love the off white original paint finish, easily fitting in all home colour schemes.

Superb 19th century farmhouse table with side drawer. This table is full of beautiful character with many stories to tell.
It benefits from a dense top on sturdy attractive turned legs with original stain. The table sits on 4 original casters. To the side is a practical cutlery drawer with compartments.
In vintage condition showing hundreds of years of use and love, with past but treated woodworm to the top, this table is a rare piece that would sit beautifully in a country farmhouse setting as well as an industrial style city home, shop or office. It could be used as a dining table, or even a large desk.
It is a striking addition to any stylish home.

This is a very unusual piece, in excellent condition and probably dating to 1910 or 1920. It has 6 pretty storage drawers and 6 hooks.
A vintage piece that would look fabulous in a hallway as a coat rack and accessory storage, or equally as a practical shelf and hooks in a kitchen, or again as a large bathroom shelf to hang towels and tidy away those unsightly cosmetic items.
A truly one-off wonderful piece.

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.

Original vintage vitreous grey large industrial pendant from the 1940s/1950s. This is a series of 4 factory shades, identical in colour, but the fittings slightly vary, and the shades go as two pairs (see photos).

Price is per shade.
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.

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!

Unusual ‘male’ English antique tailor’s mannequin. It is rare to find a ‘male’ version and this has the original adjustable pine stand and retains its pine arm caps, which are usually either lost or missing. Cloth covered, some water marks associated with use and some chips on the top of the handle above the neck, but you can’t see them if you just twist this to the back (see image 4). Overall this rare find is in good, original condition. Perfect to add character to a bedroom or bathroom, and equally good for shop display or similar.
