Three mismatched vintage heavy ironstone bowls.



The smallest bowl measures 5" in diameter by 2 1/2" tall. It has a makers mark on the bottom that reads "Jaxon" which indicates it was made by the Jackson China company somewhere between 1914 - 1930s.




The medium bowl measures 5 3/4" in diameter by 2 1/2" tall. There is no makers mark.




The largest bowl measures 6" in diameter by 3" tall. This bowl is footed. There is no makers mark.




The bowls have a nice heft to them. There are no chips or cracks on any of the bowls, but there are characteristic utensil marks and light staining from a lifetime of use.


SOLD!

I love this vintage farmhouse table with it's chippy old white paint and weathered charm. It's the sort of piece you'd see in a country decorating magazine or a cottage style coffee table book.


The table is very sturdy and is loaded with tons character from a lifetime of good use.



Overall dimensions are 36 1/4" long by 17 1/2" wide by 28 7/8" tall.

Antique European goat cart - potato wagon or hay wagon, c. early 1900s.

Used on farms and in gardens throughout Europe during the early 20th century. These handmade carts were used primarily for hay and to transport feed and produce to and from villages. They were multi-functional and are known by different names. Some refer to them as goat carts while others call them potato wagons or hay wagons. These days they are used primarily for decorative purposes. They are lovely when filled with gourds and pumpkins in a fall display or with potted spring flowering plants spilling over the edge on a front porch or in a garden.

This cart is in great condition for the age. The hand-hewn wood is weathered and the metal components are rusty. There is one small chunk of wood missing and an early repair ( see the fourth photo). This is characteristic of something of this age that was heavily used and it only adds to the charm of the piece. All and all this primitive piece of farm equipment has been well care for over the years.

The cart is approximately 39" long by 24" wide by 22" tall.

The pull handle is 31" long.

The front wheels are 14" in diameter.

The back wheels are 16" in diameter.

PLEASE NOTE: For shipping purposes I may need to remove the the pull handle. It's held on with a single nut and bolt and will be very simple to reattach when it arrives. The assembly is fairly self-explanatory.

SOLD!

Pair of beautiful decorative pillow covers from vintage German mangle cloth linen.

Casual elegance is the most appropriate description for these large pillow covers. These would work well in most any decor from sleek modern loft to rustic farmhouse. They have been constructed using vintage German mangle cloth. The khaki linen fabric is accented with red and white stripes and is extremely soft and lightly faded from a lifetime of use. They are designed in an envelops style and feature 100% cotton twill tie closures.

These pillow covers are being sold as a pair. They are large, 20” x 30” and will fit queen size inserts (not included).

Antique European Mangle Cloths were used to help iron items in mangle machines (ironing machines), and are made from pure linen fiber which is durable enough to withstand the high temperatures these machines required.

The cloths used in creating these pillow covers originate from Germany and range in age between 60 to 80 years old.

SOLD!

This is a wonderful pair of old rusty farm wire baskets or cages. Actually, we were told that these were used to cover galvanized bowls of chicken feed, to prevent the chickens from climbing into the bowls, but we're not sure. Whatever they were used for gave them a great rusty patina. 

Wouldn’t these be lovely lined with moss and planted with Paperwhites this winter? They would also be perfect if made into rustic style pendant lamps. The decorative potential of these seems endless!

They are rusty with a few minor bends to the wire.

They each measure 8” in diameter by 8 3/4“ tall.

c. 1940’s
