A very well painted and utterly charming oil on canvas of a lady. Excellent proportions at nearly 1m tall.
Ingeniously signed to look like a letter, and dated 1845.
The level of detail is superb- her various pieces of jewellery, her lace, everything is well rendered. Her face and hands are well painted too- always tell-tale signs.
The canvas is stamped Winsor Newton, and there are label remnants as seen. A little bit of research here would be fascinating.
A beautiful looking piece perfect to adorn any period inspired space.

These are perfect to our eyes! The patina is just marvellous, and the dark wood drawer fronts perfectly set of the assortment of odd handles and brass label plates beautifully.
This original set of 12 filing/index drawers has been hand made, with dovetail joints throughout.
Easily accommodated, this unit will be useful in any setting and a joy to look at. Form and function.
It’s lived a life and is imperfect giving it all the more character. A simply beautiful bank of drawers.

£795.00
A very attractive antique taxidermy rug.
This rug dates to the late 19th or very early 20th century and was made in India. It shares similarities with known makers like Theobald Brothers (the eyes) but we cannot attribute it accurately.
This rug in in good overall condition with wear as seen, and is partially backed on a rough hessian weave (with losses). It looks like it may also have once had a brown felt backing.
A large example at 273cm x 181cm.
All claws are present (5/5/4/4), and we believe this example also has its teeth (possibly its skull too?) which we think have been overpainted.
Excellent quality glass eyes. Plaster interior of the mouth- well modelled and complete.
This piece will not be to everyone's taste - we would much prefer to see this beast alive - but having been mounted in a time with different values to ours, we prefer to preserve and enjoy this piece, rather than lose it.
Dimensions:
All approximate
273cm nose to tail
Excluding tail 198cm
Front width 181cm
Back width 180cm

£345.00
The most beautiful, rare pair of square based ebonised domes. Rare in square form, and very difficult to produce, these are even rarer as a pair.
This beautiful pair are in superb condition as seen, with just the right wear to the bases and wonderful hand-blown inclusions/bubbles in the glass.
They are a great size and perfect for displaying precious pieces, taxidermy or clocks. A rare opportunity.
