1930s Art Deco German Miniature Tin Clockc1930s German Art Deco Clock @ £28.00 SOLD

This is believed to be a 1930s German tin clock, does not come along very often and is exquisite. It is one of those items that I am having great difficultey parting with as I love it....but go it must as I have nowhere to put it.

It is made of tin, and the front has a kind of thick plastic covering over the clock face. On the clock face you can see the word German and there is little minute dial on the lower half....isn't this fabulous?!

It measures 2" at the widest point ie. base x 1/2" deep x 1 1/2" tall at it's highest point.

Old Dolls House Bookcase& BooksOld Bookcase With Books @ £19.50SOLD

This is a very old commercially made bookcase, a bit crudely manufactured but fabulous as you get well over 20 assorted tiny books with plain pages too, as well as a block of wooden mock books and a larger book with plain pages. The exact age and make is unknown but it came with some pre-war 1930s dolls house items so assume it is from that era too. Overall the bookcase is in a good played with condition, though please note that some of the books have loose paper ie. they are falling apart.....but as long as they are kept in the bookcase, they should be fine.

Lovely item!

Bookcase measures 3 1/2" wide x 1" deep x2 1/4" high.

1930s Holdfast Dolls House Chairc1930s Holdfast Tin Chair @ £5.00

This is a singular green tin chair, very 1930s in it's appearance and was made, originally as part of a set with table, four chairs, clock and piano by Holdfast. Sadly, all that remains of this particular set is this chair. It could be used in various rooms and is in a good played with conditon.

Measures 1 1/2" wide x 1 1/2" deep x 3" total back height.

Ref:A- Holdfast Tin Chair


Old Wooden SideboardOld Wooden Sideboard @ £12.50

This is a lovely wooden sideboard with one opening door. There is a tiny screw for a handle and is in a good played with condition. However, it looks like the right hand panel has been glued back in at some point...albeit a tad crooked but is not detrimental to the overall look of this. The sideboard came with a 1930s house plus the art-deco clock above so I am assuming that this originated from that same era.

Measures 4 1/4" wide x 1 3/4" at deepest point ie. feet x 3 1/4" high

Ref:A- Old Wooden Sideboard


Old Wooden BureauOld Wooden Bureau @ £14.50

Here is a lovely solid wooden bureau, with opening doors and a drop-down front. I am assuming from the grooves, that once upon a time three rectangular panels would have been fixed in to create separate compartments but these are long gone. This has definitely been commercially made but have no idea of exact age or make but all I can say is that it came with a batch of 1930s-1950s dolls house furniture.

NB. Thank you to the lady who has kindly forwarded some info to suggest that this is a German late 1940s piece. She has seen them usually in a dark oak finish.

Old Wooden TableOld Wooden Table (slight damage) @ £4.95

Here is a sweet little wooden table, exact age and maker unknown but came with a batch of 1930s-50s furniture. Overall it is in a good played with condition however please note that one side has warped a little and the edge has dropped. This is not noticeable if viewed from the other side or alternatively a small cloth could disguise this.

Old Wooden Table-Slight Damage

However because of this slight damage the table has been greatly reduced...bargain for someone.

Measures 3" x3" x 21/2" high

Unusual Vintage TableUnusual Table & Three Chairs @ £15.50

Unusual Vintage Chairs

NB. Please take note of the size as it falls between both 1/16th and 1/12th and is neither one or the other. Will suit an old dolls house where scale does not matter.

Antique Glass Soda SyphonAntique Glass Soda Syphon @ £25.00

Here is a very old and highly sought after glass soda syphon. It is exquisite and very delicate. You can see the glass pipette inside, all appears to be intact. How it has managed to get to 2011 unscathed is a miracle!!! Absolutely beautiful. These just do not come along very often.

Antique German SeatLate 1800s/Early 1900s Seat @ £35.00SOLD

Here is a very nice and extremely old wooden seat that has been upholstered in red velvet and braid trim. Believed to be of German origin. It is in a good played with condition and quite a solid piece. Some understandable wear on the velvet upholstering but nothing major. These particular pieces do not come along very often these days so if you have an antique dolls house, this is a good opportunity to furnish it with an older piece of furniture.

Measures 5 1/2" x just over 2 1/2" deep x 1 1/4" sitting height (overall back height 4 3/4" to tip of decoration).

German Tin Globec1930s Tin Globe (Pencil Sharpener) @ £25.00

Here is a lovely and increasingly rare tin globe - which is actually a pencil sharpener, but ideal for a vintage dolls house. This is in excellent played with condition. It unscrews in the middle to reveal the interior of the pencil sharpener - the pencil is inserted at the base.

German Tin Globe

Believed to have been made pre war 1930s and German - has some interesting countries such as Persia. Stands at 2" high.

1930s Brass Candlesticks1930s Pair Of Brass Candlesticks @ £6.95

Here is a very charming pair of brass candlesticks, slightly tarnished but overall good condition. They are a tad on the large side but I have put them under this 1/12th section as they came with Pit-a-Pat furniture and had previously stood on a Pit-a-Pat mantlepiece. However if scale matters in your vintage dolls house, please take note of the measurements.

Height 2" x diameter of base 1"

Lovely items!

This is quite a rare German tin wireless in a well played with condition with some paint loss and aging to the paper controls. The tiny glass valve is long gone, which is so common in this model (you will see the tiny hole at the top where it should sit), but it is pleasing to see the lovely headphones still present and still attached to the original long green cotton string. Measures 2" long, 1 1/2" high & 3/4" deep.

Lovely item!

Art Nouveau Table

Unusual 1890s/Early 1900s German Art Nouveau Decorated Wooden Table @ £9.50

This is a most unusual and quite strange piece. There is a delightful Art Nouveau Red Design that has been stamped onto the ornately cut table top, which points to the fact that this has been manufactured, however the table pedestal legs has been fixed off centre which is quite odd.

Measures: 4 1/2" long x 2 3/4" deep x 1 3/4" high

This is a pretty little metal food stand with an attractive design in the "dish" part and marked Germany underneath.

Stands at just over 1" high.

Dolls House Cantoy TrolleyVintage 1950s Cantoy Plastic Trolley @ £10.50

Miniature 1950s PotsTwo Blue & Yellow Spotted Wooden Pots With Lids @ £12.50 circa 1950s?

These are gorgeous and although exact date or origin unknown, I suspect that they derive from the 1950s, as they are quite similar to a wooden teaset known to be from that era, previously sold. The largest measures approx 3/4" in diameter and both are in excellent condition. These would look fabulous in either living room or bedroom.

Ref: A-TwoBluePots


German Vintage ArmchairsThree 1950s/60s German Wooden Chairs @ £14.50

This set of three wooden armchairs are in a weird scale so please check to see if these are appropriate for your house. They are not 1/16th but not 1/12th either....maybe somewhere in between? These came with the German open plan dolls house that has now been listed without the furniture, due to a customer's request and I understand are of German origin. They are of solid construction in an attractive stained and varnished finish. Would be ideal for someone who has a retro 50s/60s dolls house?

Each chair has just over 1" seat height but then it tilts towards the back. Width to end of each chair arm is 2 1/4". Overall depth of chair from from front to where the farthest tilt of the chair back is just over 2 1/2".

Miniature 1950s Lamp 1950s Table Lamp With Red Shade @ £7.50

This came with a German 1950s dolls house so am assuming that it is from the same era. It is in excellent condition, made from plastic and very retro in style. The shade is covered with red material. The bulb, wire and plug still intact but I have no idea if it works. Is in a good played with condition and buy as seen. Measures 2" in total height. May be suitable for 1/16th scale house too.
