Denby Stone and Teak endgrain patterned trivet or small serving board, handcrafted in Denmark

Jon Nix — Tue, 30 Aug 2022 10:00:45 +0000

A very attractive-looking butchers block-style trivet or serving board produced by Denby as part of their "Stone and Teak" range. Handcrafted in Denmark in collaboration with Digsmed, the range of products were intended to be complementary and showcase each partner's skills. In this case, there's no stone, just beautifully crafted endgrain teak in a Danish modern style, just some subtle curves to the shape in order for the wood to speak for itself.

In very good, clean, condition with some minor signs of use as one might expect from an item of this type - surface blade marks, etc. - but no chips or dents, and with plenty of life left in it. Original makers stamp to the underside. It measures approximately 25 cm by 15 cm by 2.5 cm (10 in. x 6 in. x 1 in.)

Mid-Century Large Wood Handled Stainless Steel Servers / Set of Tongs

Jon Nix — Thu, 18 Aug 2022 11:35:33 +0000

A very attractive set of Mid-Century Modern servers in stainless steel with wood - possibly teak - handles. What's nice about this set is that the servers can be used independently one in each hand or, when joined together (via a mechanism at the top of the handles), as a set of tongs which can be used in one hand. So a stylish design, yes, but also very usable especially with this clever bit of convertability.

Each server is approximately 32cm (12½ in.) in length. In very good, barely used if at all, condition and in their original box, which does have a few signs of age and wear.

1950s-1960s Piero Fornasetti Pistols Metal Serving Tray

In well-loved condition, by which it is meant that there are considerable signs of age, use, and wear and tear, this metal serving tray is nevertheless unmistakably a Piero Fornasetti design. Despite the condition, this remains a desirable example of the Italian designer, of its era and of its type.

It features - on the top surface - Fornasetti's trademark black and white illustrative style, depicting various pistols, revolvers, muskets and powder pouches, surrounded by an imitated rivet design, whilst the underneath is a faux wood effect. Both surfaces have significant wear and loss and some discoloration (please review photos carefully) and there is notable handling wear to one corner where the tray has been frequently held.

The tray is a rounded square approximately 33cm by 33cm (11 in. by 11 in.) with a depth of approximately 2cm (¾ in.).
