Welcome to the board Daniel. There are no marks on it I assume?  We probably need Keith for this one.

Treen / Ebonized three leg stool??
« Last post by LEGSY on January 07, 2020, 01:54:35 PM »
Hi everybody i purchased this stool recently not sure if it would be
all right to list it here as it's not really treen as such but thought i
would see if anybody knew anything more about it? I seem to remember
a stool being on the Drew Pritchard show salvage hunters which was similar
so i guess i may see it again in the future i think he described it as a reginal
piece of woodwork. Would love to find out where and when it may have been
produced thanks for looking :)

Burglars broke into one of Europe's largest treasure collections - the Green Vault in the German city of Dresden - early on Monday, police say. The popular German daily Bild says the thieves are thought to have grabbed diamonds and other jewels worth millions of euros.

Plastics / Re: Snow woman in a bikini on a lilo tree bauble.

I didn't have a camera handy at the time, but spotted something which looked as though it could have been made by the same company.  A hanging glass burger!  Not sure why anyone would want to hang a Mac.D. type burger on a bun on a Christmas tree, but there you go :bad:  In fact it didn't look too unlike the rubber ring/lilo that the figure is lay on.  I suspect very much that they are very modern.  If it is still there when I'm passing, I'll buy it and upload an image (before giving it back to the Charity Shop).
Tasteful eh ???  :o  :taped:

Is it solid piece of timber, or could it be made up of bamboo strips?

Thanks t'other Anne ;)  Apple Red describes the colour really well.  My son loved it and really wanted to get his hands on it, but fortunately for me, his wife has changed their colour scheme from red to mustard and grey tones, so I get to keep it ;D

Scandinavian & Nordic / Five arm candelabra - Hoganas Keramik
« Last post by Anne E.B. on October 20, 2019, 05:00:09 PM »
Found this yesterday ;D  This time, a large five arm candelabra made by Hoganas Keramik, Sweden.  I think it will look nice at Christmas time.
This is a previous one I had with three arms, seen here http://www.yobunny.com/pottery/index.php?topic=11653.0  I never did get a reply from them to find out a little more info.
