Read moreEarly 20th Century Brass Crop Sprayer Stripped and Polished
£0FREE UK Shipping on this item via ParcelForce 48hr.
A beautiful early 20th Century traditional crop sprayer, produced by The Four Oaks in Sutton Coldfield (circa 1930’s). This came to us in a terrible dirty state and somebody had attempted a later ‘paint job’ on it. We had to fully strip the body, clean the whole thing up, polish the brass and buff to finish. We now adore the mix of original patina to the top and bottom but restored and polished body. It makes a different and very attractive storage vessel for dried flowers, dried grasses, driftwood etc. or as an umbrella or walking stick stand. However you choose to style. The flowers in the photographs are not included within the sale price. It comes with its original lid.

Read moreMid Century School Gym Bench with 5 Baskets
£0FREE UK Mainland Shipping on this item. Some more remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
This gym bench dates to around the early to mid 1960’s. It is in super original condition but we had to make up new legs due to the previous original legs being cut to sit over heating pipes. The bench top is a beautifully rich aged colour with very straight and solid baskets below. The legs are made form steel and sprayed gloss black to mirror the original ones.
These are very popular benches and we are finding it harder and harder to get good original ones. Every time we manage to find one it flies out to another very happy customer. This one is a vey usable size but easy to accommodate in to most spaces, being only 120cm wide.
A perfect way of tidying up a hallway or entrance whilst adding a real style statement. Very stylish and on trend!

Read more1960’s Desk in Teak by Abbess with Leather Top
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
A very different and very stylish mid Century desk by the ever popular Abbess makers. This one dates from the 1960’s and is very different in design to most of the Abbess desks we have seen and sold. This desk is in superb colour and made from heavy teak. It also has a very attractive leather top with beautiful old gilded banding to the edges. The leather is original and bears it fantastic patina from all of the years of use. We fully cleaned the desk, lightly sanded back the wood and gave it all a fresh coat of varnish. We also cleaned the leather top, moisturised it with leather cream then polished to finish. The work surface is very generous but the top does easily screw off to make delivery and siting easier.
The colour and condition are exactly right for a very stylish work/ study desk.
We have sold a number of these Abbess desks and they never hang around for long.

Read moreBeautiful Tall Victorian Glazed Bookcase / Dresser in Walnut
£0FREE Shipping on this piece. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A beautiful and very stylish late 19th Century Victorian glazed dresser / bookcase in original walnut finish. It dates from around 1880 to 1900 and has beautifully aged original cabinetry, glass, brass ware, locks and key for both sections.

It is very stylish, classic and flexible in design and very flexible to match a vast array of room styles. The colour is superb having aged beautifully over the last 120 years+.
We think it would also make a fantastic individual bookcase/ dresser or kitchen / diner cabinet. The piece is tall though and does not split in to two sections for transportation. The bookcase stands at 231cm tall so please check your ceiling heights carefully before purchasing. This is an impressive size that will certainly commands lots of attention and only appreciate in value.
Superb original antique charm with very contemporary lines.

Read moreMid Century Desk in Oak with Removable Legs
£0FREE Delivery on this piece within 10 business days to most areas. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A very stylish and solid mid century teachers desk handmade in oak. This desk is unusual in that the four legs are easily removable via four wingnuts on the underside of the desk.

Later brass handles have been added but are of good quality brass. The top is a very rich colour and is completely original but there are some indentations from previous use, that are photographed. Please examine all photos closely and just ask if you need anything else clarifying.
A beautiful, stylish desk without the dramas of being able to get it delivered to your space.
