Vintage Denby Pottery and Teak Salt and Pepper Pots Set – Danish Design

Jon Nix — Sat, 24 Sep 2022 21:05:33 +0000

A pair of vintage and extremely uncommon Denby salt and pepper pots, combining Denby's stoneware expertise with the Danish design of Kurt Franzen of Digsmed to give these teak-bodied condiments a mid-century flavour. The fixed pottery tops - we think these were designed as part of the "Romany" range or at least would be a good match for it - have a grey-brown speckled gradient and are perforated with an "S" and a "P" in the top. The rounded teak bodies have a plastic stopper in the base for re-filling.

Measuring approximately 10cm (4 in.) in height, and with a maximum diameter of approximately 6.5cm (2½ in.), they are in very good used condition - the salt pot has a firing defect which has been glazed. They individually weigh approximately 220g.

Large Modernist Stainless Steel Salt and Pepper Pots by WMF Germany

A pair of - frankly - oversized salt and pepper pots made by WMF (the artist formerly known as "Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik") of Germany. They are beautifully sculpted from stainless steel with a form which resembles something like a brutalist hourglass, and they are indeed large (almost 8cm / 3in. in height and 6.5 / 2½ in. in diameter). They're a bold statement.

There's not much more to be said - you'll probably either love them or hate them. They are in good condition with the odd surface scratch, and a screw stopper base to allow for re-filling. And just in case you are wondering, the two pots are indeed different from one another in terms of which is salt and which is pepper. The former has larger holes from which it dispenses...

Vintage 1939 French “Ripolin” Paint Illustration and Price List

Jon Nix — Mon, 12 Oct 2020 11:14:04 +0000

A French paint price list and accompanying letter dated January 1939 which, on the reverse side, features a very attractive and frame-able black and white illustration of various paint pots from the manufacture Ripolin. The illustration measures approximately 26cm (10½ in.) by 23cm (9 in.) with the letter on the reverse and folds out to reveal the price list/catalogue on the inside.

The paper is yellowed with some minor creasing, but is in good condition considering it is over 80 years old.

Vintage Pyramid Aluminium AGA Lidded Pans

Jon Nix — Sun, 11 Mar 2018 17:34:15 +0000

Vintage aluminium ware made by Pyramid for use on AGA and other stove tops. We have a 5-pint and a 7-pint capacity pan/pot available. Both are in usable condition but with signs of wear consistent with use and age. You should expect there to be dints, scratches, deformations and other marks but the pans are sound and functiona - the handles are sturdy and strong. The insides of both pans have some staining and pitting, but we see no reason why they cannot be used in anger (perhaps that's the wrong phrase! -- Ed.) or indeed be used for decorative purposes.

The 5-pint pan approximate measurements:
Diameter: 18cm / 7in. (27cm / 10½ in. including handles)
Height: 12cm / 4¾ in.

The 7-pint pan approximate measurements:
Diameter: 19.5cm / 7¾ in (28.5cm / 11¼ in. including handles)
Height: 13cm / 5¼ in.
