An immaculate and very rare French Ormolu (Gilded Metal)/ Glass Epergne depicting a small garden bird sitting on a branch with its original glass flute (see all pictures below). Although not signed there are registration numbers imprinted to the base. It is in superb condition considering its age and the gilding is still in excellent condition. Ormolu by definiton is a gilded metal alloy of copper, zinc, and tin used in France since the 17th-c for candelabra, clocks, and other decorative luxury objects, and for mounting elaborate furniture.  This really is a collectors piece and we hope it will go to a home where it will be treasured.

 

P&P to the UK is £12.50 - Optional insurance is £3.10

 

Shipping to the US/Canada is £32.50 - Optional insurance is £5.20

 

Please note we are able to offer shipping discounts on multiple purchases.

Located in the suburbs of London, we are a family business dedicated in finding unusual giftware, objet d'art and collectables for you to enjoy that are  not the "same old, same old" found in the High Street and if unique and different, are not offered at outrageous prices that only a tiny proportion can afford. We pride ourselves in finding items that have decorative value, are collectable, of the highest quality and in particular reminders of yesteryear at affordable prices. Many of our items are faithful reproductions, Limited Edition sculptures, or simply objects of beauty that have been hand crafted and/or painted by talented craftsmen, artists and sculptors. As the small Independent Shop and Stores that bought so much individuality to our homes disappear, our aim is to offer you a wide variety of decorative objects and the opportunity of paying what you feel they are worth to you.

We endeavor to answer all questions received prior to an auction. In some cases, particularly questions appertaining to items purchased at auction or estate sales, we may occasionally be unable to tell you much about their history or the materials they are made from, but we will endeavor to try. Table Lamps, which, over the years have become a major part of our business, are wired for UK Voltage, however many are sold to US customers on the understanding that an adaptor will need to be purchased or the lamps themselves simply and inexpensively rewired by a qualified electrician.

We describe our items honestly and photograph them to the best of our ability.  Should you have any questions or queries please email us in the first instance before you place your bid or should your email not be answered within 24hours due to technical reasons beyond our control, call customer services on 0208 958 0445, (0044 208 958 0445  for international calls) between 10.00 am-20.00pm GMT.

UK Winners - The preferred methods of payment are: Visa/MasterCard (Call 0208 958 0444) personal cheque, bankers draft or postal order. We accept PayPal and do not charge a surcharge for doing so.

International Winners - The only acceptable methods of payment is: Visa/MasterCard (00 44 208 958 0444) or PayPal. International money orders, bank transfers or checks will only be accepted in GBPounds due to the high cost of bank processing due to currency conversion. This payment policy is without exception!

International Bidders - please email for a shipping quotation prior to bidding if shipping costs are of concern.

Parcel Force Worldwide Airmail Services are used for all international shipping and Parcel Force 48-hour delivery service for all UK and European deliveries, charged to you at cost.

Goods in transit are not automatically insured however please note, for peace of mind we suggest adding optional insurance as offered above to the shipping/ postal charges for Parcel Force’s enhanced compensation scheme that will cover the full cost of your item for loss or damage during transit.

All items are professionally packed, from our dedicated shipping facility and every care is taken to ensure that your item will arrive in perfect condition, however we cannot be held responsible for any damage or loss incurred in transit to uninsured goods neither can we accept returned goods on the basis that they do not meet with your expectations. To ensure an item does meet with your expectation we offer a customer services hotline and will answer questions prior to auction end.
