Modernist Style Vintage Stainless Steel Rounded Square Dish

Jon Nix — Wed, 04 Mar 2020 22:01:36 +0000

A striking small stainless steel dish with more than a hint of Danish modernist style to it, but made in Hong Kong by KH. The dish, which is stamped underneath with design no. s-873, has an overall rounded square form with a circular base and interior, with bevelling to the outside lip edges and subtlely smoothed interior. In very good overall condition with minor superficial scratches and signs of wear, but nothing which catches the eye or detracts from the otherwise striking form.

The dish measures approximately 12.5 cm square (5 in.) with a depth of 2cm (¾ in.). The circular rim has a diameter of 9.5cm (3¾ in.) and the base has a diameter of 5cm (2 in.)

Funky Golden Yellow and Black EKS Kitchen Scales Made in Sweden

Jon Nix — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 08:14:17 +0000

What can be said that the photos don't say!? Bold design (1970s Ford Capri, anyone?), bright golden yellow, black and white colour scheme. A highly usable set of old school kitchen scales. Swedish. Made by EKS. That's it - just look at them! These have got to be the funkiest looking kitchen scales you've ever seen. If not, then get in touch, because the competition is on!

The scales are in excellent working condition with very minimal signs of wear or age to the plastics. They measure approximately 20cm (8 in.) by 16cm (6¼ in.) by 15cm (6 in.) when in the "stored" position shown in the photo, and approximately 24cm (9½ in.) by 16cm (6¼ in.) by 18.5cm (7¼ in.) when in use with the tray on top of the base. There is a calibration dial on the face of the scales and the weights are displayed primarily in Kilogrammes and then secondarily in Pounds and Ounces.

Arthur Salm Teak and Stainless Steel “Kalmar” Fruit Bowl Mid Century AS Sweden

Jon Nix — Sat, 13 Jul 2019 12:15:53 +0000

As much a piece of sculpture as it is a piece of tableware, this "Kalmar" fruit bowl made for Arthur Salm (AS Sweden) makes an elegant statement in stainless steel and teak about design simplicity and use of materials. Introduced in the late 1950s, the bowl consists of a main curve of steel met by teak side panels and feet with gentle curves and hinted reflections, whilst the curved edges of the wood contrast with the stark extents of metal. A superb piece of design which would grace any home, but particularly one with a Scandinavian influence.

Ours is in good condition, with some scratches to the stainless steel as to be expected from a functional item such as this, and with some minor markings to the wood panels. We should also note that the head of one of the screws underneath the feet which attach them to the main steel curve seems to have been damaged in the past. We have not attempted to remove the screw and it is unlikely that there would ever be a need to remove the feet, but the buyer should be aware of this minor defect. The maker's mark is present on the underside of the steel with some minor wear to it, but still visible.

The outer extents of the bowl measure approximately 26.5cm (10½ in.) lengthways, 25cm (10 in.) widthways, and 11.5cm (½ in.) from base to rim. The inner part, so to speak, measures approximately 22cm (8½ in.) by 19.5cm (7½ in.) by 7cm (2¾ in.)

Pair of 1950s Vinyl Covered Beech Framed Stools

Jon Nix — Wed, 21 Nov 2018 22:36:01 +0000

A matching pair of original and unusually shaped low stools, probably intended for a kitchen, with beech frames dating from the 1950s. The seats are not square, instead tapering slightly from back to front and the legs extend to very pleasing ball feet. The stools have their original vinyl covers which are intact but which are not in the best state (see photo), with some paint marks and minor tear damage. Although we loved the original covers, we have treated the stools to a fresh Scandinavian-style design in olive green, blue and brown on a white background, but left the original covers underneath should the buyer wish to use them.

The stools have been carefully cleaned, sanded and waxed.

Stool dimensions:

Maximum Width (seat rear): 38.5 cm
Minimum Width (seat front): 35.5 cm
Depth (seat front to rear): 39cm
Seat Height: 44cm

Due to the nature of these items, they are available either by collection or by prior arrangement of a courier service. Please get in touch with us before ordering if you would like to discuss collection or courier options.

Cathrineholm Lotus Enamelware Lidded Saucepans / Casserole Dish

Jon Nix — Fri, 02 Mar 2018 09:03:35 +0000

These fabulous Cathrineholm lidded saucepans or casserole dishes feature the renowned and highly desirable "Lotus" pattern, designed by Arne Clausen and made in Norway. Dating from the 1960s and made of high quality enamelware they continue to look great and work great to this day.

Ours are in a very cool retro colour green and are in excellent condition. The only minor blemishes are some very slight rusting in places on the rims and some minor wear to the bases, but as you can see from the photos, this is barely noticeable and certainly doesn't affect their look nor their functionality. There are no chips to the enamelling and the handles have retained a great shine.

We have variations available as follows:

16cm Rim Diameter, 12cm Base Diameter, 8cm height. Marked "MADE IN NORWAY". [SORRY - SOLD OUT!]

18cm Rim Diameter, 14cm Base Diameter, 9cm Height. Marked "CATHRINEHOLM OF NORWAY". [SORRY - SOLD OUT!]

20cm Rim Diameter, 16cm Base Diameter, 10cm Height. Marked "MADE IN NORWAY". [SORRY - SOLD OUT!]

22cm Rim Diameter, 18cm Base Diameter, 10cm Height. Marked "CATHRINEHOLM OF NORWAY".

Each comes with its original handle and lid which also features the maker's mark stamped into the handle underside. The handles can be removed to turn the pan into a casserole/serving dish.

Please contact us if you are interested in purchasing the entire set or a combination of sizes and we will happily discuss pricing on that basis.

Danish Paro Design candle holder

Jon Nix — Sat, 02 Sep 2017 19:27:32 +0000

Dating from the 1960s, this cast iron Danish candle holder is a stylish and decidely different addition to any decor, but particularly complements any mid-Century furniture.

Designed by Paro, its hexagon shapes accommodate 12 candles (12.7mm) and is approximately 12cm (5 in) in diameter. We think it would look equally good wall-mounted, but probably not with the candles!
