Vintage Leather Effect Wood and Board Desktop Paper or Letter Tray with Lid

Definitely vintage, possibly antique, but certainly only befitting of someone important with a desk to match their status. This large leather effect paper or letter tray has a leather effect finish and a burgundy lining to the base and the underside of the lid. The lid itself is sturdy and ensures no papers are allowed to escape the confines of the tray. It's a combination of wood and a kind of compressed paper board, whilst the knob on the lid is solid wood, so it's solid in construction and feels like it has some quality to it. It has signs of wear and age throughout, but that only adds to the charm and makes it more appealing in situ.

It measures 23.5cm (9¼ in.) across the front, 36cm (14¼ in.) from front to back, and has a height of 6cm (2½ in.).

Pyramid Enamel Two Handled Lidded Dish with Flowers and Butterflies Design

A very attractive piece of enamelware made by Hague & McKenzie in their "Pyramid" range, this white lidded pot with two handles features a flowers and butterflies design in purple-blue, blues, yellow and olive green offset by a lid in a purple-blue tone. It's _very_ vintage in style but probably dates from the 1970s and is complete with its original labels affixed to the base and also to the inside of the pot and also original tag tied to one of the handles.

It therefore appears to have never been used at all, but unfortunately it has nevertheless suffered some slight damage to the inside of the rim. This shouldn't affect normal use and it's not terrible from an aesthetic point of view, but it needs to be noted. It could be easily "touched up" if so desired.

The dish measures approximately 18cm (7in.) in diameter on the rim and 14cm (5½ in.) at the base, with the handles protruding 2.5cm (1 in.) either side. Without the lid, it is approximately 8 cm (3¼ in.) in height, and with the lid adding approximately 4cm (1½ in.) to that.
