LATEST ADDITIONS

Cart Frieze
£155.00A theatrical 19th Century Italian Polychrome Carving, likely the decorative frieze from a ceremonial Sicilian cart.
The horizontal panel displays a scene inspired by classical antiquity - a Triumphal Chariot Race.


Italian Fragment
£175.00A carved 19th Century Italian wooden cart fragment, depicting two armoured knights engaged in combat before a dramatic landscape.
The panel is worked in deep open-relief, with the central figures shown mid-battle, their shields and weapons raised. Behind them rise stylised palm trees and architectural forms—perhaps evoking a fortified town or distant citadel. The ends of the panel terminate in carved helmeted heads. 

Dutch Fragment
£220.00A carved 19th century wooden panel, very likely a surviving fragment from a traditional Dutch farm cart. The elongated shape, rustic hand-carving, and remnants of paint align with the decorative sideboards and valances once used on carts throughout the Netherlands and the Low Countries.
At the centre, two prancing horses appear in low relief, framed by scrolling foliate motifs highlighted with traces of their original green and red pigments. Horses were a favoured symbol in Dutch folk art—representing vitality and prosperity—making them a fitting motif for agricultural wagon decoration.



Vanity Mirror
£345.00Elegant early 20th-century French Rococo-style vanity mirror featuring a beautifully cast gilt brass frame surrounding an oval mirror plate.
Standing on gracefully curved feet with a hinged rear support, the mirror is perfectly suited for display on a dressing table, console, or mantel. Its warm gilt finish and intricate craftsmanship make it an eye-catching decorative piece.


Child’s Highchair
£1,100.00A Joined Oak Carved Child’s Highchair on Stand, initialled R.D. and dated 1688.
An early child’s chair, featuring a scrolled top rail set above a tracery carved back panel and flanked by carved down-swept arms. The later boarded seat is raised above a carved seat rail. The chair is secured, by means of a charming wooden screw, to a later Victorian stand with spiral-turned legs, the proportions of which sit sympathetically with the original structure.
The stand is designed to function independently as a table once the chair is removed and incorporates an earlier carved panel at its centre.
Overall, a particularly delightful and uncommon piece.


French Mirror
£495.00Early 20th Century French Mirror.
Lovely gilt framed mirror, some losses consistent with age.

Afshar Rug
£875.00A fine antique Persian Afshar Rug, handwoven by Afshar tribal weavers in southwest Persia, circa 1880–1900. This striking piece features an indigo field with a repeating diamond lattice enclosing stylised floral motifs. Framed by multiple geometric borders.
Woven entirely from hand-spun wool on a wool foundation and coloured with natural dyes, the rug has developed a soft handle and warm patina through time. It shows signs of age and use consistent with its age but remains structurally sound and visually captivating.


Striped Mannequin
£250.0019th Century French striped mannequin with wooden base.
Internally the wooden frame has detached along one side of the body, however this does not detract from the visual aesthetic of the piece.
Adjustable height.


Singer Mannequin
£195.00Mid 20th Century Singer mannequin with striking chrome bib, mounted on a black metal base.
Adjustable height, with minor wear and tear.


Tailor’s Mannequin

Adjustable height, with minor wear and tear.


Georgian Dresser
£1,850.00A particularly charming George III provincial oak dresser of small proportions.
The piece retains a pleasing colour and patina, with evidence of honest use and age. It has undergone several historic and sympathetic restorations, including the replacement of the two lower shelves to the rack and the internal shelves within the base.
