Offered for sale is this pair of vintage 20th Century English Royal Worcester fine bone china footed trefoil bowls, dating from the 1960’s. Rare to have a set – as are mostly found for sale singly.

They can be used for multiple purposes – eg food service (jams, table salts, lollies, etc), floating flowers, holding pot pourri or for pure decoration. Charmingly fun (as well as functiona

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century carved hardwood (oak?) and polychrome enamel-coloured figure, possibly English (or Australian) and most likely dating post-WW2. The carver/painter is unknown, however given the naive style this could be classified as ‘Shedwork’. Maybe this was part of a custom chess set? Or meant to represent Saint George? Perhaps inspired by the famous Lewis Chessmen, the creator of this unique piece has rendered their interpretation of a medieval warrior; complet

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century Australian ‘E G Greenway’ glazed art pottery bowl, most likely dating from the 1950’s. Established by Herbert Greenway in Blackburn (Melbourne) in 1949, the firm produced a widely-successful range of domestic and art pottery (often with fantastical and slightly ‘odd’ designs). With perhaps a gentle nod to original 16th (and later 19th) Century Pallissy ware, this amusing design features a large central clam-shell bowl with three supporting barnacle

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century USA-made Fisher-Price ‘chatter toy’ phone, dating from 1985. A fun memory of childhoods past. Over time this example has been lightly playworn and taken on a unique, softly-distressed look. The chatter function still works, both eyes rotate up and down with movement and the number-dial bell still rings. Not 5G compatible LOL. A charming and curious piece of interior design or toy collectable. Measures 16cm (l) x 16cm (w) x 10cm (h) approximately.

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century Australian facsimile series of ‘The diggers’ ten commandments’, most likely produced by Queensberry Hill Press (Melbourne, 1983).

The powerful design features repeated incised abstract anthropomorphic and floral patterns (carved afte

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century English Royal Doulton ‘Seriesware’ hand-coloured porcelain quatrefoil plate, dating from the 1930’s to 1950’s. Under the direction of Charles Noke, from the 1890’s onwards Royal Doulton produced a series of themed ware - broadly covering history, sports, folklore and nostalgia. The design references a scene from the life of (yes I know totally imaginary, but there’s irony for you) Robin Hood. It depicts Robin (who’s obviously just shaken down some

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century Tasmanian ‘Weeda’ hand-formed copper bowl, most likely dating from 1951 to the 1970’s. The Weeda factory was founded by Cornelius (Kees) and Suzanna Weeda at Ulverstone in 1951.

Offered for sale is this Vintage 20th Century Japanese moulded clear glass plate, most likely dating from the 1920’s to 1930’s. Marked ‘Made in Japan’ and ‘Registered design No. 2971’. The well-executed design, with its motto ‘A good name is better than riches’ is (somewhat curiously) modelled on similar English examples of decorative/commemorative wear (usually in amber glass) of the late 19th Century. The motto is a variation of 'A good name is better than great wealth' (Proverbs 22:1). No

Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century American-made printed and gilt fluted glass Disneyland souvenir plate, most likely dating from the 1960-70’s.
