‘Snapshots of Elegance’

From time to time I’ll continue showing beautiful parts of beautiful pieces inside my showroom or home…

This afternoon my shop.

Stylish shapes and angles of the decorative arts & furniture said, here I am, show my beauty…

“Snapshots of the elegance of design”

This is what I will miss once I make my final sale of my final piece of stock in the next year or two…
A slow retirement is certainly the way I’ll remove myself from the antiques & art trade…

No hurry from me, suits my obvious ‘working in country time’ style of doing things.

I hope you enjoy the beauty as I do…

Today’s photos are from my showroom.

A Terns head and tip to a wave, from beautiful Art Deco Bronze.
‘Constantinople’ showing on a perfectly maintained Art Nouveau Terrestrial Globe. Now Istanbul, changed 1930.
Lower right corner of a decorative English Art Deco chinoiserie design mantle clock.
The tip of one of a pair of 19th century tusks. They originally belonged to a gong that was dismantled.
The shaped coloured and clear glass lower point, from a mid century Italian Murano chandelier.
Central carvings on a 19th century French, fruitwood, burr elm & oak dough bin.
The corner of a decorative 19th century Japanese scalloped edge charger.
The moving mouth and teeth of a mid century Hanging Face ‘Ivory Coast’
The cheeky smiling faded rosewood face of a 19th century Chinese door gong.
The silver face on handle of a 19th century Persian jug.
