Ceramic items include a group of Victorian-style humorous fairing figurines with inscriptions such as SHALL WE SLEEP NOW and MARRIED FOR, alongside a yellow ceramic teapot with a wicker-bound handle and a matching cup. The lot also contains two brass horse brasses, one inscribed HEAVY HORSE ENTHUSIAST, a set of blue-backed brushes, a two-tiered glass and chrome stand, a small black animal figurine, a vintage lighter, and several glass vanity jars with metal lids.
