Vintage Old Hall English stainless steel Toast Rack & glass butter & jam dishes

It holds four slices and there are two decorative frosted-glass dishes for your butter and preserves. The handle is just off-parallel, not major but only polite to point it out. There is a chip to an inner edge of one of the dishes, which isn't too noticeable due to the frosted glass, there are little pinpicks and small bubbles here and there in the glass.  The base of the rack is approx 24 cm (9.5 inches) by 12.5 cm (5 inches). Height is approx 10 cm (4 inches) to top of the handle. Underneath, maker's mark states "18 / 8 Stainless Steel, Old Hall, England". Underneath is showing signs of age and there seems to be a little tarnishing or staining around the maker's mark where a price label was removed - this is tiny and looks worse in the photo than it is. Overall, with stated is in VERY GOOD condition. Please ask any questions you might have. 

We dont have this listed on Etsy yet, but if you want it, convo or tweet @collectini and we'll list it. If you are known to us we'll arrange meet and collect.

Cream & green enamel vintage shabby chic kettle

I think this is a judge brand kettle, as it has a logo of a judge on the lid-knob. This one is ready to fly the nest and is available. Sorry this one has gone.

A first attempt at uploading a picture - Vintage Tower Scales

Not very technical, me!

But here we go, here is a first attempt at uploading a picture to the new blog. I have no idea of how or where this will sit on the page!
This is a wonderful set of scales we got a while back, when that "duck-egg-blue" was all the rage. Not only do they look very attractive, they actually work. Many a dainty scone came to fruition through the use of these. Hope you enjoy the piccie as much as we enjoyed the scones.
