What a difference a few months make to the weather. Our customers are coming in wearing lovely summery clothes instead of being all wrapped up in coats and scarves. They are still looking for that special piece of furniture that has just the look they want and is of the right dimensions.

Of course, online sales are always useful, but it can be tricky organising delivery. We have just sent a large wardrobe to Norfolk, and a lady in Canada loved our Viennese clock, but it was around £400 to deliver it.

By the way, we are revamping the gallery side of the business, which has always been dear to our hearts, there will be more news of that in the future.

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, why not pay us a visit and see if you can find that special gift for that special Mum.

 

We have many appealing paintings by local artists. 

For example, the badger is £45.

Jewelry and scent bottles make nice gifts.  

Here are a modern silver bangle and a blue scent bottle.

And some more ideas -

The temperature has really dropped in the last few days. Our customers don't seem to mind, they are well wrapped up already, and don't need to take off their coats to try a chair for size. Of course we sell many items through the internet, especially www.sellingantiques.co.uk who were mentioned in the Saturday Telegraph Property Section this weekend.

China Cabinet

We recently welcomed a new dealer who has joined us to specialise in china and pottery items. She particularly likes Art Deco and has brought in a double cabinet full of her lovely pieces.

Edwardian Revolving Bookcase

We are always getting interesting new stock, apart from the usual chests of drawers, desks, tables, and wardrobes that are so popular. Have a look at this round double revolving bookcase, or the wonderfully tactile jade amulet.

New Vendor, Specializing in Silver

We have a new vendor in who specializes in silver items. What caught my fancy was a tiny prayer book with silver covers. The front cover has embossed angels on it.






This dealer also has a model of The Beatles Yellow Submarine - no one can accuse us of not having variety!

Some Recent Items - Showing Our Wide Range of Stock

This selection of items that have come in this month show what a variety we have in the Emporium. There is an Anglo Indian console table, a WWII helmet, two silver plate and glass storage containers from Harrods (one is for string),  and finally a vibrant new picture by the artist Tim Brooks.






Do pop in and have a look sometime.

Coins and Militaria added to our range at The Emporium

Pylle Emporium and Gallery has a new dealer who specialises in coins and Military items. He has a good selection for sale and is intending to bring more in to The Emporium in the coming months if there is sufficient interest. 

Please phone or email us if you would like more information.

Vintage Bakelite Telephones

We have just got in three more Bakelite telephones, a different model from the ones we have already. All our  phones have been converted to run on the current telephone network.

I keep seeing similar ones on the television, for example the more modern shape were in Endeavour on ITV, which is set in the 1960's.
