Adult Size 1980’s School / Changing Bench
£275FREE UK Mainland Shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Some more remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
These gym benches date to around the mid to late 1980’s and came to us straight from a school in Leicestershire. A good size in both length and depth means the shoe tray can comfortably fit adult size shoes, as well as taller ankle boots. Steel legs and tray with a good solid beech slatted top means the bench has a nice solid weight and feel to it – not like modern reproductions. These benches already look great but just age up even better.
The benches have all the superb old school styling you could want and a really good size. A perfect way of tidying up a hallway or entrance whilst adding a real style statement. We have a number available in this size, one at 240cm width and one at 260cm width. If you wanted a bespoke width please get in touch.
We also have lot of original mid century gym hooks in stock (original black or chrome ones from the 1970’s and 80’s, mid Century painted ones, mid Century stripped ones, numbered, on back boards etc. etc.). If you would like a board with original gym hooks on, just drop us a message with your requirements.

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)

Early 20th Century Shop Display decorative piece by Singer
£195FREE UK Shipping on this piece via ParcelForce 48.
A truly superb and rare decorative piece. We estimate this beautiful cast iron bench dates from the 1930’s. It would have been used as a shop display piece to promote the detailed casting work that Singer were capable and world renowned for. The quality of the casting for the size of the bench is exceptional. It is heavy for its size, due to being made from cast iron. The bench ‘seat’ also displays the original Singer Manufacturing logo label. We have never come across anything like this and for somebody that loves Sewing and Crafting it would make such a perfect gift (even if that person is you!) A rare piece of Singer memorabilia and a beautiful table top decorative piece that will get so much attention and admiration!
