A really wonderful late 19th c.,twig, side table. Table and patriotic bunting declaring PROTECTION FOR AMERICAN INDUSTRIES- campaign slogan of Harrison & Morton - 1888 are original. You can tell by the way the scarf and table top are made that they are generally of the same period- scarf was added when the table was made.There is some color running on the fabric but generally in good condition. I had a piece of glass cut to protect the table top. Twig is in good condition . Silver highlights are typical 19th c.decorations on twig pieces. Overall table height is 31 3/4" The table top is 21 1/2" by 20 3/8".
Buyer would make shipping or pickup arrangements.

The Temple Bar Avery needle case is a rare and delightful brass miniature. The design was registered by W. Avery March 21, 1878(see VICTORIAN BRASS NEEDLECASES by Estelle Horowitz and Ruth Mann).This is the rarer version that comes with the legend"Erected 1670" on one side and "Removed 1878" on the other. The dates refer to the actual Temple Bar designed by Sir Christopher Wren to act as a gateway to The City,the legal and financial section of London. It was erected at the junction of Strand and Fleet Streets in 1670 and removed when Fleet Street was widened in 1878. The dimensions are 7x3.8x6.1 and the condition is excellent.

This "Made in France" 16 piece set would elegantly outfit the kitchen cupboard of the most particular little cook. The set is called "Le Reve de Jeannette"(Jeanette's Dream).It is in its original box and all 16 items are still in their original tied in positions. The pots and pans appear to be made of cast aluminium, the molds and utensils of tin and wood. There are 2 rectangular bain marie - large and small, 2 oval roasting(?) pans - large and small, 2 oval casserole (lidded pots with the name of the toy impressed in the lids), 1 round uncovered handled pan, 3 food molds, 1 whisk, 1 ladle, 1 skimmer and 1 wooden spoon. The largest piece( covered casserole) is 5 1/4" long an 1 3/4" high, all the other pieces are proportionately smaller . The back of the bottom of the box has a sweet scene of children playing at cooking and serving in an orchard.
I would date this as pre WWII. Condition is excellent.
