☎️ Vintage Telephone Table

A wonderfully practical and compact piece of vintage furniture, originally designed as a place to sit while making a phone call.

Featuring a padded seat, raised telephone shelf and useful storage below with sliding doors, it would work perfectly in a hallway, entrance or other small space where storage and seating are needed.

The warm wood grain gives it plenty of character, while the replacement black legs with brass-coloured feet add a distinctive touch.

✨ Vintage Solid Pine Stools ✨

A pair of late 20th-century solid pine stools with a simple, rustic design and beautifully rounded seats.

The two stools are different heights, making them wonderfully versatile — perfect as seating, for children, or even as side tables in a living room or bedroom.

Both are strong and sturdy, with a warm natural patina and plenty of character. One has some old saw marks which have been filled and sanded at some stage, adding to their history and charm.

A lovely, practical pair of vintage pieces. 🌿

Arts & Crafts Swedish Table Lamp by Arvid Böhlmarks ✨

A striking early 20th-century Swedish table lamp by Arvid Böhlmarks Lampfabrik, dating from the 1910s. Böhlmarks was one of Sweden’s leading lighting manufacturers, producing some wonderfully distinctive Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts-inspired designs.

The lamp features a wonderfully tactile hammered metal frame, with a simple geometric form and decorative brass details. The dark, aged finish contrasts beautifully with the vibrant yellow pleated fabric shade, which appears to be a later replacement.

It retains its original bulb holder and integral on/off switch and has been rewired at some stage. Takes a standard E27 screw-in bulb.

A fantastic decorative light with plenty of character — and that bold yellow shade makes it a particularly eye-catching piece. 💛

✨ Vintage Cheval Mirror | 1950s–60s

A beautifully charming vintage cheval mirror with a bevelled edge and its original ivory-painted finish, complemented by delicate gilt details and brass finials to the tops of the supports.

The oval mirror tilts backwards and forwards within the freestanding frame, allowing the angle to be adjusted to suit. A single drawer beneath runs smoothly and provides useful additional storage.

A wonderfully elegant piece with plenty of vintage character. There are some scuffs and marks to the painted finish and age-related marks to the mirror glass, all consistent with its age and use.
