Here we have a small selection of the glasses we have in stock; they range from small 'digestive' shot glasses to Champagne bowls. They range from true antiques of two hundred-plus years old to others that are mid century vintage.

If you are looking for something special get in touch and we can send more photos of items that should fit the bill.

Todays Finds 19/04/2015

Sorry not had time today to do a proper listing of the three unusual items we found on our trip out today.......................................

 

 

This a great find and I have only seen them used in some Boulangeries over here.

It is a Croissant cutter a must for any kitchenalia fans.

 

 

 

These are one of two pairs of typically French understated yet very elegant curtain hold/tiebacks.

They are solid brass and so when we have polished them we will put a reasonable price on them

and let you know.

 

 

 

Finally is this sweet little find - a unique matchbox holder with attached candle holder and handle, one could say a true wee willy winkie by NOVITEX.

 

 

Odds and Ends

Here we have for you a selection of bookends and desk items.......................

1: This is a one-off,  a 1920's bird it could be a Pheasant or a Peacock but we are not sure: 
2: A pair of smaller rearing horses: 
3: This is a one-off of a Deer laying in front of a very stylised palm tree. 
4: A wonderful pair very Art-Deco Deer picking grapes from a vine: 

5: A pair of large horses:
9: Sorry, I got the number 6 and 9 the wrong way around!! These Squirrels are signed, making them highly collectable and I think they should have eyes but they can easily be replaced with new ones or be or left as is: 

Here we have a three slightly larger items.....................

 

7:This is a fantastic version of a desk pen-and-ink stand with a really nice reclining deer: 
8: A pair of bookends that double as picture frames. Original bevelled glass panels - they have some  small chips but most are hidden behind the marble: 
6:  A true 'Deco' tri-colour marble stand with a gold finish glass picture holders. The glass has a  lovely pattern on it - to frame two photos together:. 

                                                                                                                                                                          

10: A small pair of boat bookends: 
11: Vintage hardwood bookends with dice that have brass inset dots for the numbers: 
12: Wood base with metal horseshoe and horse-head decorations: 

 
 

13: This is one of my favourites and just jumped out at me. I know we had to drive a hard bargain but it is magnificent. The clock  is in perfect working order  - it is currently ticking away in our bedroom and keeping good time:  SOLD

14: This is quite a large piece for this type of frame. It is one of the best examples of Art Deco marble we have been able to find with its stag to one side.   SOLD

Keeeping Warm

Hi everyone we are going to try and add new items each day - they will be available for collection here in France or we will be in the UK and Ireland at the end of May in places such as Colchester,- North Nottinghamshire and York and then Dublin and West Cork.

Today we have on offer for you superb Antique and Vintage Multi Fuel / Wood Burning stoves.

First we have a matching pair of mid century Rosier 430 Cadillac Rears

 These are both in very good condition with only a chips to the enamel on the base of the one on the right. 

 

Sorry Now Sold

We also have a Faure stove from around 1935 in this gorgeous blue and is obviously in a genuinely great Art Deco style.

This stove is in great condition for its age - I am sure it would give years of future service. The Mica is fine and would not need replacing.

 

This stove has a removable cooking ring and so can be used to slow-cook winter stews if needed.

The grate is in almost perfect condition.

 

 

The Price for this piece of history is SOLD

 

We have a few more wonderful examples of French stoves such as these in stock ranging from the 1800's through to the mid 50's. Please do not hesitate to ask us for size details and if you do not see what you are looking for ........ we may already have it in stock or know where to find it.
