A mixed group of decorative items of primarily wooden and ceramic construction. The collection includes glazed ceramic Shire horse figurines, with accompanying hand-painted wooden Vardo caravan featuring floral motifs and textile fringing, and a wooden barrel cart. Among the items is a small wooden music box or cabinet decorated with painted figures in traditional Alpine dress, featuring a metal winding key on the reverse and a single lower drawer. The assortment further features various carved wooden animal figures, including camels, a stylised bird, and hedgehog-themed bookends. Other pieces include dog-motif bookends with integrated photo frames, a segmented wooden bowl, a figurative carving of a man beside a lamppost, and a carved wooden horse-drawn barrel wagon with a driver. A wood-slice plaque is present, featuring a pyrography-style illustration of a lamb and the inscribed text He careth for you.
Condition report:
