A stunning URANIUM GLASS lamp. This lamp originally started out its life as an oil lamp with a chimney in the middle but has been converted into an electic lamp. The fact that the glass in this lamp is uranium dates it to pre-1930s, but I am not sure how long ago it began its journey....it could well hve been a Victorian lamp. The lamp stands 48.5 cms tall. The glass, which is valuable in itself is in excellent condition. If you wanted, you could restore this lamp to being an oil lamp again, but I like the fact that you can put an ultra violet light in it and watch the glass glow.

I have heaps of uranium glass for sale under "Uranium Glass" and another stunning bronze lamp listed under "Ornaments"...well worth a look. I have also recently started a category caled "lamps" but most of these (not all though) are old vinatge and antique oil lamps.

A lovely old kitchen table c1880-1890 in pine and oregon. Note this table has nice thick legs. Would look great with a little work. If you are not handy we can arrange restoration for you at an approximate cost of $200. Tables like this restored sell for over $1000. The table is approximately 150 cms x 93 cms. There is also a little drawer, inserted some time ago, presumably for storing some cutlery. Offered at a very reasonable $380.

A lovely Edwardian c1900 pine trunk/kist...in excellent condition, with dovetailed corners...81 x 45 x 35 cms.

This is an original Australian colonial cedar rocking horse. It is a bit difficult to date but I would say it is mid-to-late-1800s, say 1850-1870...it may well be older. It still has its original paint although much of it has fallen off. The important thing from a collector's point of view is that it has never been painted. It also appears to have been hand-made probably made by the father for his children in tough colonial times. The horse stands about 61 cms high and is about 91 cms long. It is definitely made of Australian cedar...early Australian colonial furniture is my forte.
