songbird on rock

Written on Thursday, September 27th, 2007 :: 0 comments to this post

This little songbird is perfect for the garden and made to look like a real bronze sculpture but is in fact made from resin. She stands 4″ tall and her rock spans 4.5 inches in width. She will sit perfectly in a quiet spot in the garden and is so lifelike.

Please also see our other items for a ’singing’ version of this ornament. Just as sweet as this item, but perched on his rock with his beak poised to burst in to song.

vintage knitting needles 9 pairs

Written on Wednesday, September 5th, 2007 :: more comments to this post

These are very old and are assorted colors as photographed - mostly lovely reds, pinks and cream all as photographed with black button tops. There are 9 pairs all together all with contrast black button tops . These are for the collector.

All pairs are very old and are in remarkably good order. I have tried to take lots of photo’s so you can see them clearly if you need to ask me a question I am always happy to help but I know little about these collectors items - two pairs of pink same size gauge 9 still have their paper tag from the store so presumably never used. Sizes the cream size 7, cream 10, red size 9, red size 10 and two sets of larger red no sizes marked and so no real idea of the sizes you will have to size these two pairs using knitting needle gauge.

I have another two lots of VERY old multi coloured button top knitting needles for sale - auctions at the same time - so have a look at the others as we are always happy to combine on postage.
