repurposed - Anything In Particular https://anythinginparticular.co.uk/product-tag/repurposed/ From antique to vintage, from decorative to downright bizarre. Fri, 12 Nov 2021 09:30:11 +0000 en-GB hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.10 Antique Chunky Gilt Frame with Blackboard https://anythinginparticular.co.uk/product/antique-chunky-decorative-gilt-frame-with-blackboard/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=antique-chunky-decorative-gilt-frame-with-blackboard Sun, 22 Jul 2018 08:42:33 +0000 https://anythinginparticular.co.uk/?post_type=product&p=3005 Perfect for larger notices and signs with a touch of distinction, this genuine antique gilt frame has been supplemented with a contemporary blackboard which will take a traditional chalk stick or chalk pen and wipes clean with a damp cloth or sponge. The frame itself has classical geometric decoration and beading details and certainly makes a statement. It's bold and distinctive and would certainly catch the eye, whether at home, in an event venue, or in a restaurant or retail environment.

The outer frame measures 57.5cm x 42.5cm ( 22.5in. x 16.75in.) and the blackboard (frame aperture) is 46cm x 31cm (18in. x 12in.).

There is age-related wear and tear to the frame which adds to the look and contrasts well with the blackboard, and there is some slight gaping in the mitres but nothing very noticeable or concerning.  The frame is sound and solid otherwise.  Please note: no fixings are provided with this particular frame, but there are eyelet rings already present on the frame ready for horizontal hanging if that is the buyer's preference.

The frame itself has ornate and elegant decoration of flourishes and floral motifs but is subtle enough not to be overwhelming or fussy.

The outer frame measures 36.5cm x 29cm ( 14.5in. x 11.5in.) and the blackboard (frame aperture) is 32cm x 24cm (12.5in. x 9.5in.).

There is age-related wear and tear to the frame which adds to the look and contrasts well with the blackboard. There is evidence of previous woodworm which has been treated and there is some slight gaping in the mitres but nothing very noticeable or concerning.  The frame is sound and solid otherwise.  Please note: no fixings are provided with this particular frame, but - due to its lightness and smaller size - a standard hanging arrangement would suffice for wall hanging or it could be easily stand-mounted.

]]> Coffee or Side Table made from repurposed Winsor & Newton Drawing Board https://anythinginparticular.co.uk/product/coffee-side-table-made-repurposed-winsor-newton-drawing-board/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=coffee-side-table-made-repurposed-winsor-newton-drawing-board Sun, 25 Feb 2018 18:19:59 +0000 https://anythinginparticular.co.uk/?post_type=product&p=1775 A combination of a vintage Winsor & Newton A2 Drawing Board and a nicely shaped child's table results in this somewhat industrial-looking side table or coffee table which we think breathes new life into these old pieces.

The board has been reformed so that it sits on the child's table and the latter has been sanded down and given a rough graphite grey Rustoleum furniture paint finish.  The final piece has been given a series of wax finishes to provide a durable and stylish surface. The drawing board has characterful signs of wear and use which - now waxed - adds to the attractiveness of the table.

The table top measures 40.5cm by 58.5cm (16in by 23in) and sits at a height of 46cm (18in).
