Thought to be an apprentice piece from the 1940's or 1950's, this brass jug is remarkably heavy for it's size. It looks great and went on sale in my shop today.

New In-Store Today ~ Smaller than than another I currently have on sale this is also a very RARE! original 1930's vintage enamel ware water jug/pitcher or vase.

With it's brass top plate which seals the jug it struck me that it would make the perfect storage for loose change... The plate when closed would prevent access by spiders and other bugs which seem to end their days in such places!

The story of how it was done, why and the reason I decided to write about it...

A step by step tutorial and a very enjoyable canalware project for me and my first true commission from a customer. A vintage canalware flour bin is reborn.

The last clock for 2018 ~ I'm hoping to create some more unique examples in 2019 but for now I've run out of plates...

No two are ever the same! Both attractive and with a practical use these 'Carishei Canal Art' canalware clocks are among my favourite creations... This is the latest and available in-store now...

This watering can is to be featured in the national magazine 'Landscape' and is on it's way to them. Really thrilled to have been invited to do this and can't wait to see the end result. It will be back in store once they've finished and returned it to me.

Some great new items listed last week. Very pleased with these larger unused items... The ornamental milk churn could have a hundred uses while the coal scuttle comes with a nested shovel to make an ideal gift.
