This lot consists of an assortment of vintage-style decorative items and collectibles. Included is a pair of lidded earthenware tureens or vegetable dishes, possibly ironstone, which are accompanied by matching oval stands. These ceramic pieces feature blue transfer-printed decoration consisting of floral and scrolling foliate patterns. The lids are fitted with decorative finials and the bodies feature integrated twin handles. No maker marks are visible on the undersides of the pieces. The collection also includes several advertising tins: a rectangular dark green tin decorated with a nostalgic scene of a Marks and Spencer Ltd Bazaar, a blue rectangular tin for La Mere Poulard French shortbreads featuring a central portrait, a circular tin decorated with a vintage-style world map, and a small plain red rectangular tin. Completing the assembly is a modern retro-style looking tin in the shape of a radio and a small table lamp. The lamp features a fluted, cream-coloured stone base, likely alabaster or onyx, with a cream-coloured parchment-style shade and a white electrical cord with a standard UK plug.
