Stunning pair of antique Chippendale style deep buttoned leather wing armchairs on mahogany legs dating from around the 1910-20's period. The leather is original & in great condition. The colour of the leather is wonderful & full of character. They are also very comfortable & just invite you to sit on them. These armchairs have generous large proportions, with wide seats & backs. They are deep buttoned all over & the leather is hand tacked onto the frames. The high backs are well shaped as are wings. They are sturdy & extremely high quality. The mahogany legs & stretchers are very bold too. They must be one of the nicest pairs of wing armchairs I've come accross. I particularly like the naturally aged colour & finish of the leather, which is a kind of champagne colour.

Large Antique Classical Bust
Antique classical bust of what looks to me like a ancient Greek warrior or philosopher. It's difficult to say, because we have tried to google the face, but nothing seems to come up. Maybe someone out there may know? It give the appearance of distressed sculptured stone, but it's only composition. Still, it's quite large & impressive, with some age. I would say it's roughly 1930-50's period.

Long Antique French Gilt Wood Stool
This antique French gilt wood stool is fabulous quality & has a great shape with many fine features. It has eight shaped legs which are joined up with shaped stretchers underneath. Please enlarge all the images to see all the fine details & carvings. It's carved all along the top of the frame & down the cabriole legs. The shaped stretchers are also carved & have other decorative details. The gilding is all original & has just been revived & touched up in places, while still retaining the original look with loads of character. I have just had it re-upholstered in a cream fabric with double piping around the edge. This has to be one of the nicest stools I've had & it's a great size. It would be perfect placed along the bottom of a double bed. This stool is from the 19th century & I would say it dates from around the 1840-60's period.

Antique Victorian Ebonised Wellington Chest of Drawers
Very unusual & rare antique Victorian Wellington chest, which is in immaculate & original condition. It's ebonised with some gilt trimmings & the handles look original too. The top & bottom edges have stepped out curved corners & corner columns are fluted with gilded decoration. This chest is quite high, so all the drawers are quite deep, with fine dovetails & solid mahogany bottoms. The top drawer is stamped with the cabinet makers or sellers name 'Hindley & Sons. Oxford Street. London', which is engraved into the wood. This is normally a sure sign of quality & this piece is certainly very fine quality. It dates to around the early Victorian 1840-60 period. There is also an old piece of paper in the top drawer, which has an explanation about the history & design of this piece. This was probably written out many years ago by someone who originally sold it.

Antique Chinese Style Chinoiserie Lamp Stand
Antique Chinoiserie standard lamp, dating from around the 1910-20's period & in good original condition, with very vivid colours. Contrary to common beliefs, these chinoiserie items are English & not Chinese.

There is also a matching coffee table on the site, which came out of the same residence.

Mid-20th Century Ceramic Jaguar
Large colourful ceramic model of a Jaguar. The previous owner said it had been in the family for a long time & was told it came from South America & it is signed underneath (check the relevant image), but we can't really make it out well. However, it could even be Italian, because there were a lot of various models of Jaguars made over there in the 60's & 70's. I can't find a model of this form anywhere online though. It seems to be in very good condition & I can't see any damage. This item does need a better clean though. Please check the sizes below.
