Silver & Gold Bi-Metallic Cigarette Case Gifted to Prince Axel of Denmark
Welcome Friends
Summer Time
We made it: time to sit back, relax and enjoy the British summertime. It is a month of holidays, family time and enjoyment as we approach the height of the summer season. At Jacksons Antique, we are enjoying the sunshine while travelling the country and finding some beautiful new objects to add to our collection.
Amid the last few year’s turmoil and the uncertainty of fairs popping up and cancelling throughout the country, we decided to trail a ‘stable base’ and make the very best of the current climate. We have taken a space at Europe’s Biggest antique centre, Hemswell Cliff, just north of the beautiful city of Lincoln. Our stand is showcased in the Guardroom and features a select mix of objects from our collection. Several of the objects are available exclusively at Hemswell, and we have been pleased with the progress in taking sales every week since we started at the beginning of July. The footfall is fantastic, and the centres are open 7 days a week, nearly all year round.
We would highly recommend a visit if you are in the area, as there truly is something for everyone. The Centre has several buildings filled with multiple stories of antique goodies. From antique English furniture to jewellery and everything in between, there really is something for everyone, and most importantly, it caters to all budget levels.
It is a great day out, and the centres also have a fully serviced cafe/restaurant that serves food throughout the day. You can find our stand in the Guardroom, which is the first building as you enter the property on the left-hand side. We are straight up the stairs, turn right and follow it to the end. Our space is located on the fire exit aisle and has plenty of viewing space.
Featured this month
This week, we are featuring this Bi-Metal Cigarette Case, which was given as a gift to the late Prince Axel of Denmark. It features Silver and Gold alternating strips with an inscription to the inside reading “To Prince Axel from his very affectionate neighbour Helge” dated 01/05/1921
We also have a beautiful dome-topped Strut Clock dating to the late 19th century, likely an English example with a hand-painted porcelain dial featuring cherubs, Roman numerals and a romancing couple to the lower third. The clock is cased in a thick gauge brass with engraved decoration and strong bracket for desk top or mantle positioning.
