Welcome Friends
Autumn
Dear Friends, I can’t believe we are already into Autumn with our September 1st newsletter. Summer has flown by, and we are now beginning to see the Autumn weather with some showers and cooler temperatures hanging around.
At Jacksons Antique, we try to work through the summer months hunting for the next latest pieces, and then we have a break over the first few weeks of September. As our business has been progressing over the last couple of years, this has been our busiest summer ever, with sales coming from all our outlets, including a huge surge from our stand in the Guardroom at Hemswell Antique Center.
We are seeing huge demand in Japanese Satsuma both for clients who collect and for clients looking for prime decorative value so thank you all for your continued support. I can confirm we have several ‘irons in the fire’ and that some new Satsuma is coming in imminently. As mentioned above, we will be travelling across the pond for the first few weeks in September, and therefore, any orders placed between now and our return will be dispatched when we arrive back. We will confirm this directly with any clients making purchases during the next few weeks. Thank you for your understanding.
This month, we have added a nice selection of new objects to our collection, ranging from bronze sculptures to a large glass perfume bottle. Our favourite pick of the week has to be the Dutch Solid Silver Sugar Sifter in the form of a Snipe Bird. Hallmarked in multiple places, the bird stands upon a purpose-made plinth, stating that it was given as a gift from the ‘Officers of the 60th Rifles’. The 60th Rifles became The King’s Royal Rifle Corp,s and the snipe was presented to Major J Le Coq on the day of his wedding in 1954. The head of the snipe is removed to access the sugar sifter, which is a pierced silver section for sprinkling sugar. The Snipe is finished with two glass eyes, giving it an overall naturalistic look with high-quality casting and realistic shaped feathers.

My grandfather handed me an antique clock, it was missing its minute hand and hour hand
I guess that’s what happens when you get a second hand clock
