A Busy Week

It’s been a busy week, with 5 auctions over 6 days. While I take a little time to sort through what I have bought, here’s a few things that caught my eye in the sale rooms:

This lovely cream enamel Belling cooker has a lovely vintage vibe.

Still on the domestic front, I remember seeing hairdryers like this in hairdressing salons, but I never knew they came in a home version.

Or, if you fancy something a bit smaller/more modern (still in its original box).

I loved the shape of this unusual cheese dish, but couldn’t work out why it was so tall in comparison to its length – pretty, but not practical, unless you’re going to stack all your cheeses on top of each other!

I’m guessing that this glass dome was also used to cover food, but it was incredibly heavy, much too inconvenientĀ  to protect cakes, so it may be for garden use?

I loved the way these seventies light shades were stacked, it made them look quite sculptural!

I loved this pair of pictures, just right for down here in Cornwall.

In fact, it may well have been modelled down here, the landscape (seascape?) definately has a Cornish feeling to it.

Apologies for the pictures by the way, I only had my camera phone with me.
