After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company. Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

Description
This rare and beautifully made early oak and wrought iron or apothecary’s chemists open ended crusher similar to a mortar and pestle is a rare survivor. The outer open ended case is made from brown oak held together with a blacksmith made wrought iron collars which are finely finished with neatly chamfered edges. This outer part held the substance against a flat surface such as wood or marble whilst the other element which is also made from brown oak was the simple hand held tool used to complete the task of crushing substances ready for use within medicines and herbal remedies.
