A collection of decorative homewares and collectibles comprising a framed print, a ceramic tureen, and various metal and glass items. The framed print, titled Windsor Castle in the lower margin, depicts a landscape view of the castle from the river Thames in a light wood frame with a cream mount. The large ceramic tureen features a scalloped octagonal form with a matching lid, decorated with hand-painted polychrome floral motifs in blue, pink, and yellow, framed by red trellis and scroll borders.

Metalware and ceramics include a contemporary silver-toned polished ceramic sculpture in a spiral form, a polished metal tea light holder shaped as an artichoke, and a silver-toned metal ice bucket with a pair of matching ice tongs. The group also features a mirrored glass tray with a decorative crushed-glass border, supporting three faceted glass tea light holders, and a silver-toned candle snuffer with a knurled handle. The items are constructed from ceramic, glass, and polished metal. No maker’s marks or hallmarks are visible on the pieces. This lot comprises the decorative items only.
