Thought I’d create a few posts on beautiful yew wood pieces I’ve sold over the past few decade’s.
I’ll start with these magnificent rare 18th century English Gothic windsor elbow chairs.
I sold these to a wonderful woman in her late 70s back in 2006. She still enjoys them every day.
Such joy they have brought to her life…
After much deliberation, I’ve decided to sell a few very special pieces I’ve had at home the past
20 or more years.
This magnificent wine table is one. I simply cannot house everything I’d like to.

Surprisingly, the majority of chandeliers I import, still retain the original French globes. Once restored and placed into my showroom or customers home, the majority of globes are still working. Remarkable!

Taking apart, removing old glues, packing the interior for stability, re-glueing and holding glues together.
Then watercoloring the damages out.
Wonderful outcome.

The old Green or Blue Trick?
I like the green vase more, but think the blue suits?
I suppose I’m lucky to have such a decision to make!
Some recent re purchases I sold 20 years ago.
Even though retiring soon, it’s impossible to not buy these magnificent pieces back.

All in need of a good re-wax finish.
I’ve enjoyed having this beautiful 18th century English yew-wood side table in my apartment for the past few years.
Being a dealer and having such special pieces, I have the enjoyment of living with, then selling once replacing.
I’ll truly miss this table, however living in an apartment forces one to cull!
This table will be back in my showroom next week.

This twin bedroom design was inspired by a wilful little girl and her excitable younger sister.
A pleasant mid 19th century French fruitwood and oak side table.
The well patinated three plank moulded pear wood top, above an oak base.
The long single drawer retaining the original steel drop handle, resting on fine turned legs, joined by a matching turned ‘H’ stretcher, with a turned fruitwood central finial.
Fantastic overall deep colour and patination.

I purchased this unusual sculpture from a supplier recently.
I’ve featured in a display and taken home to play with.
This morning I’ve ordered two more to sell, as I’m keeping this one!

But I’m retiring in my own time.
I’m in no hurry, so probably about one year or so, as I have so much stock stored away to sell…
Reasons for retiring:
1. Premier and his $@&+% mates👎🏽.
Was going to retire a little later, he’s pushed things forward.
2. 31 years in business and 44 years in the trade!
It’s time to change and have a second life.
Most probably in Europe for two thirds year and Melbourne the rest.
So long as what’s his face is gone!
3. European history and architecture.
I can’t wait to see every inch of every country. Holidays have never been long enough.
4. Kids out of school, No more private school fees!! and I’m single! Yay!!!
So this is not a RUG SHOP closing down SALE, it’s a genuine retirement sale.
Pieces discounted between 20% – 50%
My stock is selling very quickly, so if you like something, come in.
I may keep this shop, even when overseas? There’s many other things I can do here…
Perfect location for anything unique and interesting.
I have many ideas…
Have a good look through my website and regular Instagram posts.
