4A Georgian mahogany pembroke table. (32in x 38in x 27.75in) - This is a pretty little pembroke table with two rule-jointed drop flaps. The top has been refinished at some stage. The edge of the table has reeding. It has an oak lined frieze drawer opposing a dummy drawer, mounted with brass rosette handles. It is decorated with boxwood stringing on square tapering legs with brass cappings and casters. It shows signs of old repairs, where the legs have been dowelled but a good clean table. : £200-300 (Furniture)

7A pine art room table with three drawers with brass cup handles, raised on square column legs joined by rectangular stretchers. (57.5in x 72in x 35in) - : £100-150 (Furniture)
8A Victorian mahogany Scotch chest of drawers.

It is generally in clean condition, although the odd bit of veneer is missing here and there. It is mahogany sided, and the sides are cracked. : £300-400 (Furniture)
12A Victorian pine rocking horse. (40in x 33.25in). - This is an original rocking horse with leather saddle, bridle, etc. It is covered in pony skin and has a padded body. The eyes are glass. The mane is absent and the fringe has been cut and so too the tail. The bridle and tack look in tact but the leather is quite brittle. The pine base has been stripped in a tank at some stage and so it is without paint and looks very dry. The columns that support it are cracked but it is a solid, pegged structure and just needs restoration. All the iron mounts are there and original although the rails are possibly upside down.It is on a platform with cross stretchers which again are all complete and original with no woodworm so just needs painting and restoring. The legs look solid, the skin is peeling away showing the hessian in places particularly where the rider’s legs have brushed against the sides. : £150-200 (Furniture)
