We are very pleased to be able to bring this rare antique piece to our website. It is simply stunning. Manufactured by Globe Wernicke around the early 1930’s it would have been sat in a warehouse office for filing in the drawers and storage of details on index cards. It is manufactured from radial cut, top quality oak and oak veneer (sides). The brass ware on the front is original and has been fully cleaned. It is quite simply the best example of aged handles and brass label holders that we have see. And we have seen a lot of pieces!

£245FREE Shipping on this item within the UK.
An original hand painted sign dating from around the late 1920’s to early 1930’s. It is rear reverse painted and is in outstanding condition for its age. There are just some areas of ‘nibbles’ to the edges of the lettering. The glass is around 8mm thick which gives it a good solid weight. The edges of the glass are smooth and rounded. It hangs on a nice quality solid brass antique chain. All in all a beautiful sign with a very highly desirable subject matter. Hang it to make a statement (Non Smokers), laugh at the irony (Smokers) or just because it is fantastically decorative and stunning to look at. Quality and very different wall art for your home!

This gym bench dates to around the mid 1960’s and came to us from Mount Kelly private school in Tavistock, Devon. It is in super original condition with really true and square shoes baskets. Most of the baskets get bent or broken over the years but this one is in really good, straight condition, with perfect aged patina to the metal work. We fully cleaned the piece. It has all the original style and character but ready for another 60+ years of use.
These are very popular benches and we are finding it harder and harder to get them like this. Every time we manage to find one it flies out to another very happy customer.
A perfect way of tidying up a hallway or entrance whilst adding a real style statement.

Read moreMid Century Wood Effect Steel Filing Cabinet by Art Metal
£0FREE Shipping on this piece (some more remote and rural areas will attract a charge)
A great set of original mid century (c 1940-50) steel filing drawers by Art Metal (London, SW1). Most of these cabinets are by Roneo. Art Metal cabinets are much harder to find; especially in this condition with this finish. This cabinet is unusual in that it is a green filing cabinet underneath but was finished (from new) in a paint effect to look like wood grain. Great colour and superb original condition, with perfectly aged original brass ware. They are very rare to find in unscratched condition. This one survived so well as it came directly from a solicitor’s office in Warwickshire, where it spent its whole life in an office, rather than a warehouse or engineering firm. They clearly looked after it well!
A very nice size for home or office. The cabinet and drawers have all been fully cleaned and the runners re-oiled. Superb condition for its age with plenty of industrial design and character. Industrial style and practicality all rolled in to one.
Cabinet Dimensions:
132cm High, 45cm Wide, 62.5cm Deep
Internal Drawers Dimensions:
58cm Front to Back, 38cm Wide, 25.5cm High Drawer Fronts
