The three plank top, above a plain frieze, resting on square tapered legs.
Note: Exceptional wild grain overall, with knots and fallen knots to the legs, a great talking point. (You won’t see this on a fancy 19th century French walnut, highly polished extension dining table) The raw beauty of French provincial pieces, same as unique English country furniture!
H.69cm W.138cm D.64cm
The smallest original French farmhouse table I’ve ever seen. Beautifully worn finish, showing the naturally oxidised oak grain.
Bologner Hund modeled in a seated position, an off white coat with charcoal patches.
22cm x 35cm
Ref,
A similar 19th century hound can be found in the V&A Museum Collection, Ceramics, Room 139. Johann Joachim Kändler, born 1706 – died 1775, made designs for the Meissen porcelain factory.
Makes that perfect gift for someone that has almost everything else…
Continually adding pieces from my private collection to my shop stock and noticing how fast they sell. Many of my customers share my taste✨
The wonderful Green Majolica plate I took from my cupboard at home (not easy) was like it was glued to my shelf!
Included in my display and sold. I remember driving back from selling customers perfect pieces for their home in Carramut, Western District, parked outside a dealer’s closed shop, rang him and waited while he drove to his shop to sell to me. I’ve so loved this piece.
Having a half price 50% off sale helped I’m sure.
The Joy Peck painting also sold while I was taking these photos (touches of green)
And the Portuguese Cabbage Ware Tureen with ladle and under plate sold too.
I’d written a story re moving onto an apartment, and how I advise people several times per week on doing so, but when was my turn, was so painful!
By the time the magazine was ready, I’d already changed three vital parts of my displays, so gave them an old story to print!
Still changing occasionally, but I’ll have Russell over soon to re take those few spots, so I can finally share with a magazine.
These are the upright shots, I’ll post the horizontal ones next..
BTW, when I close shop soon, my trading name will mainly be @allpress_creations as my writing and other business ideas and my services will be changing.
