Last project this year finished, I have another set like this that needs some work, lovely set of oak drawers, with some nice details, like the little dovetail joints and brass handles, I've done some small repairs and refinished the wood.

Not much flowering in the garden at this time of year, this clematis is doing well however, Clematis cirrhosa, appropriately named 'Jingle Bells'

I'm not usually one for things like this, but this is quite nice, it dates to around 1900 very art nouveau in style, the blue glass is in great condition, and the base is silver plated and has a lovely design on it, it's a nice thing.

Recently finished mahogany case for a vintage barometer movement, the original case was not salvageable, so I made a new one from reclaimed mahogany and it now has an art deco feel, would have ended up in landfill otherwise.

Another box finished, it's a lap desk / clerks desk, quite old and handmade, I've replaced the lid support using an old piece of pine and fitted a small catch, it's a nice thing that makes a great box for an artist.

Recently acquired these two lovely little clocks, both dating to around 1900, both French and working quite well, nice things.

Easy repair for this wooden lamp base, top section has some damage (it was me) off to the lathe, the idea is to remove the damaged section, make a joining point for a new top, made of mahogany like the rest of the lamp

If you don't like spiders look away, quite a large one, and it stayed still while I took pictures, we get loads of these in the autumn, they have a habit of spinning their webs across the garden paths at face height.

Recently finished working in this antique plant table, it's made from Oak has 2 tiers and a lovely arts and craft feel, looks great with a large plant on it, or used as a display stand.

I've seen quite a few clocks of this type about, most are not working this one is, dates to between 1939 to 1950, mains powered, this version has a telltale that rotates at 15 second intervals, keeps perfect time, a lovely little Smiths mantle clock.

THis hour glass was produced in partnership with the National maritime historical society and Franklin mint to commemorate 125 years of the Cutty Sark, it is very decorative and reminds me of Jules Verne stories like 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea #steampunk #julesverne

A curious and interesting sculpture, not sure what it is meant to represent, to me I see a bird, a fish, maybe a whale, and from certain angles it reminds me of a piece of cloth in the wind, I guess that is why art is objective.

A nice vintage barometer in need of a spruce up, I've stripped it back and refinished it, and the movement was also stripped down and cleaned, if we hadn't rescued it, it may have ended up in landfill

Making some bases from reclaimed wood for some glass domes I acquired recently, these are being dyed black and should look good once they've been polished.

Another job off the list, finished turning the new base for this vintage banker style lamp yesterday, stained and polished it today, pleased with how it turned out.

Couple of projects I'm working on, a lamp that needs a new base, an old musical instrument box, which I'm converting into some kind of storage/display box, these are on a long list of stuff I'm doing
