$135 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Dark Green Whitefriars Molar Vase
Glass:Whitefriars
A Whitefriars glass vase in the shape popularly known as 'molar' because of its resemblance to a tooth. Not a flattering name for a very stylish design. Vibrant emerald green glass cased in clear. Nicely ground pontil. No cracks or chips. Designed by William Wilson in the years before 1955, it is a classic example of mid 20th Century glass. It measures about six inches in height and is very heavy for its size.
$155 USD ReducedREDUCED Blue & White Platter:Triumphal Car: Bells of Glasgow: 1842-81
Pottery:Antique:Blue & White:Transferware:Scottish
A medium sized blue and white platter by J&MP Bell of Glasgow, with the impressed bell mark used between 1842, when the factory was founded, and 1881. It measures approximately 12 inches by 10 inches (30 x 25.5 cm) so is suitable for a small roast. There is surface crazing and some associated staining, and the print itself, as so often with Bells ware, is rather pale and - not really blurred, but not very sharp. The staining is more visible on the back where you will also see the typical kiln ...
$45 USD ReducedREDUCED Fun Party Sandwich Labels: Set of 5
Pottery:Sandwich Markers:Sandwich Labels:Party
I don't recall my parents ever using these. They are in such pristine condition that maybe they never did. They are markers or labels for sandwiches on a buffet or party table. The sandwiches contained egg, ham, cheese, salmon (canned of course) and egg 'n cress. This was standard party fare when I was young - almost any other filling would have been unthinkable. Very mid-century and would look great in an appropriately themed party setting. I photographed the backs of four before I realised I ...
$65 USD ReducedREDUCED Danish Sterling Silver Brooch by NE From: Leaves and Berries
Jewelry:Vintage:Silver, Sterling:Designer:Scandinavian:Denmark
A very attractive Danish Sterling Silver brooch, marked STERLING DENMARK NEFROM 925S. It represents two twigs with leaves and berries - to me they look like cotoneaster twigs. It measures a little over 2 1/4 inches in length (6cm) and has a safety clasp. Very simple and elegant, and very typical of 60s Scandinavian design. It would also make a charming gift for a gardener. Nicely patinated but I can polish it if you prefer. Free Air Mail shipping anywhere.
$100 USD ReducedREDUCED English Pink Lustre Tea Bowl and Saucer: Early Nineteenth Century
Porcelain:Antique:Luster:Pink
A pink lustre tea bowl and saucer, the saucer of the deep type as at this period the tea was poured first into the bowl, then into the saucer to cool it, and drunk from the saucer. The glaze in the centre of the saucer is a little worn, as you would expect, and underneath the rim of the saucer are patches of black speckles under the glaze, a roughness of manufacture indicating the early date of these pieces.
$225 USD ReducedREDUCED Honore de Balzac, Napoleon, son histoire.
Books:French:Napoleon:Balzac:Children's
Honore de Balzac, Napoleon, son histoire racontee par un vieux soldat dans une grange, precedee d'une vie de Balzac a l'usage de la jeunesse par Rene Saulnier - Arrangements de l'illustration par S. Olesiewicz d'apres les omages populaires du 1er Empire. Editions Duchartre van Buggenhoudt 15, Rue Ernest Cresson, Paris (XIVe). Limited edition, 1927, # 2323 (see scan). A large children's life of Napoleon by Balzac, with hand-coloured illustrations based on the popular prints of Napoleon's time. ...
$145 USD ReducedREDUCED Large Scottish Arts & Crafts Brass Plaque with Viking Ship
Collectibles:Metalware:Arts And Crafts:Brass
A very large brass plaque decorated with a Viking ship, which in this area we would call the Ship of Lorn. It measures about 19 inches in diameter, and will date from around 1900. You can see its age from the close-up photographs. It has a hanger attached at the back. I am allowing the patination to develop on the plaque, which has been polished, but can polish it if required.
$350 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Victorian Gold & Enamel Memorial Brooch (Free Shipping)
Jewelry:Antique:Mourning:Memorial
A Victorian memorial or mourning brooch with woven hair. Gold but unmarked, as is so often the case, because they were made directly for the family of the deceased. Tested as gold but it has proved difficult to define the exact standard. British gold can be as low as 9ct. It carries the words IN MEMORY OF in black enamel, and there is some loss to the enamel just around the edge of the central locket, but not on the wording or other decorative flourishes. It has a plain C clasp and a loop on the ...| Items 1 - 8 of 8 | Page 1 of 1 |
