Even though 2021 seems to be flying by, we’ve somehow found the time to update our web shop three times this month! With everything slowly opening up here in Wales and over in England, we’ve been heading out on buying trips to both old haunts and new territories.
Here’s a small selection of the freshly-picked vintage items that we’ve listed online this week. Click on each image to be taken to the individual product page.
These are the big eyes of our latest owl – in this case, a pottery money box.
They never stay with us long as these feathered friends are consistently popular in our shop.
Whether in the form of money boxes, mugs, pot stands, textile prints, pictures or book illustrations.
We’ve blogged a fair few times about the great illustrator, Kenneth Townsend. He designed the cutest owl as part of his Menagerie series – apparently the owl was his favourite animal!
Another wonderful illustrator with a thing for owls was Celestino Piatti who once said, “You can draw an owl a thousand times, and never find out its secret”.
