19th Century Hand Painted Fairground Ice Cream Sign
£110FREE Shipping on this item within the UK.
An original and very old hand painted fair ground sign dating from around the late 1800’s. It would have been part of a fairground side stall in its hey day. It is hand painted on board, retains nice vibrant colours but obviously does show some signs of age and wear. A perfectly ‘used’ piece of vintage wall art with superb patina. We adore the vibrancy and fun of this piece – be it in a kitchen, café, ice cream parlour etc. A rare find of this age to have survived in this condition!
It could also make a perfect gift for a special person in your life that loves ice cream?

Circa Late 1920’s Handmade and Hand Painted Lady Figure
£125FREE UK Delivery on this item.
A fantastic hand made and hand painted figure of a lady. We adore the perfectly aged but still vibrant colours! This was probably made for a commercial piece in a cinema, restaurant, shop or the like. She would originally have held something in her hands – possibly a handbag, a tray, or animal – who knows? There is some damage to one of the sides, near to her wrists/ hands section, though clearly it can not be seen if facing with the undamaged side out. We have photographed the damage for honesty of condition.
We think this would now make a fantastic decorative piece and spark many a comment and conversation. Beautifully preserved for its age.
Height approx 120cm, width 40cm, depth 3cm
Sat on an aged square plinth (believed to be it’s original stand)

1950’s Folding Rex Chair by Niko Kralj
£225FREE Shipping on this item (some remote and rural areas will incur a charge).
A superbly stylish Rex folding armchair designed by the Slovenian architect and designer Niko Kralj for Rex in 1952. The Rex chair has also been added to the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The chairs were made from a variety of cutting edge design and construction methods in the 1950’s, including curved plywood and bentwood (beech). The chairs were produced in natural beech, walnut and black. This one is in the original black paint finish and is in a very nice vintage condition. There are some small rub marks to the arms and some paint chips to the rear of the chair – all small. Please see photographs for close ups of the condition.
The chair folds flat for storage should you need to. It would also make a great desk chair. A superb designer chair that will only become more collectible.
Dimensions:
74cm Back Height, 58cm Wide, 57cm Deep.

Original 1900 Sanoid Instruction Bandage Professionally Box Framed
£245FREE Hand Delivery on this item within approximately 10 days. Further afield, remote and rural areas will incur a surcharge.
A very rare instruction bandage from 1900 by Sanoid. It would have been used by Sales Reps to demonstrate how versatile the bandages were (some questionable uses now?!) These bandages are often found stained and all creased up. This is a very clean and crisp example. It has been professionally box framed with a matt black solid wood 35mm frame.
We love how unusual it is and the size of it to make a superb statement piece of rare wall art. One for the medical professional in your life?
