1. Product Specification
Most of the items that we sell are vintage and will be clearly described as vintage.
Whilst we spend a lot of time sympathetically restoring each item, some natural wear and tear should still be expected – we believe this adds to the general appeal of each item as it makes it truly unique.
We endeavor to provide very clear and detailed photographs of each product, however, if you would like further clarification on the condition of an item please contact us before making a purchase. We are very happy to answer any questions/queries and would much rather our customers make an informed decision before committing to buy.
Due to limitations and colour variations between monitors there may be slight colour variations to those displayed. For upholstered items, we are always happy to supply fabric samples – please contact us stating which item/fabric you would like and we’ll get a sample sent out to you.

For all items we provide approximate dimensions – if space is tight, or you need exact measurements, please contact us and we will try and provide more detailed information.
