African adventures

We haven't quite ventured as far as Africa, but we have been getting some of our Belgian buys and other African-inspired delightful objects ready for sale.


We picked up these great African wood-carved masks during our trip to Brussels at the end of last year. These modern masks make striking sculptural pieces. We've mounted a few of them on steel stands to emphasise these qualities.






This quirky lamp dating from the 1930s, has an extra-useful bendy metal 'holder' alongside a carved elephant on a marble base. We've had our postcards filed in it for the past couple of weeks. It's a handy combination of letter rack/lamp!


Finally, this African animal hide drum is a surefire way to out-bongo all those park-dwelling bongo players this summer!
