September already!

Hi all,
Amazingly the summer is at an end and the 'dog days are over' - maybe we will have some Indian Summer sun this year?

We had an interesting trip to Amsterdam early in August and the sun shined for us but unfortunately did not get to any of the great vintage shops that are there, however, we did see the Matisse exhibition at the museum of modern art called the Stedelijk



 There is a bumper selection of findings and rescued treasures this time as there was no blog in August.
All on Etsy at MillCottageRetro already: Woods Piazza Ware jug; two Portmeirion zodiac mugs;
a Bjorn Wiinblad pin dish.a book on abstract art and a small travelling clock modelled as a yacht

Already listed: a small wooden toy elephant; a Lancraft laminated wood bowl; and a Danish style bowl

All the above plus a pair of Ravenhead glasses designed by Alexander Hardie Williamson - all already listed
The following are newer acquisitions which will be added soon:

Holkham Pottery cups, milk jug and sugar bowl

JAJ Gaiety ware serving dishes in the yellow and turquoise snowflake pattern

A German jug to the left, a Midwinter Stylecraft jug to the right and a Holkham Pottery mug at the front

Some glassware in assorted patterns

Super size orange brandy glass with three Wedgwood disc candle sticks designed by Stennett Wilson

Great album cover design on two classical music albums; a Chance handkerchief vase; a Portmeirion Totem vase and a Westclox clock


Some contemporary style jewellery

Some pretty 1920s floral brooches



These are some pictures of items to be added to our sister shop RedRococcoGarden although some of the pottery pigs are destined for MillCottageRetro












We hope that you enjoyed looking at our photos!
