Robert Thompson ‘Mouseman’ Oak Earlier 18″ Cow Stool, 1950s

December 30, 2024 No Comments

An excellent example of the Robert Thompson ‘Mouseman’ solid oak earlier 18″ cow / milking stool, circa 1950s. Natural ‘cats paw’ burrs visible in the subtly adzed seat and standing on three splayed and tapered octagonally carved legs which are visibly wedge jointed through the seat.

This earlier design is distinguishable from more modern examples by the use of a thicker seat and the positioning of the mouse carving on the rear outer edge instead of being at the front in the kidney shaping.

Excellent condition and aged medium fumed colour with tight leg joints.

An excellent and unusual large Robert ‘Mouseman’ Thompson solid oak monks chair with leather hide seat. It is approximately 30% wider and deeper than the standard version.

Excellent condition, solid framework, no stains or repairs, just minor expected colour fading from usage on the central part of the leather seat. Original medium fumed oak framework, clear wax finished.

Derek Slater ‘Lizardman’ 8′ Oak Dining Table, 1980s

December 23, 2024 No Comments

An impressive 8′ solid oak refectory style dining table, circa 1980s, by the Acorn Industries (Alan Grainger) trained “Yorkshire Critters’ craftsman Derek ‘Lizardman’ Slater of Crayke, near Easingwold. Features a thick planed four plank top supported on four octagonally carved legs joined by a floor level stretcher with a chamfered edge and a pair of sledge feet. Derek’s signature lizard is carved in high relief to one leg. Derek’s earlier solo work featured a fish carving.

It presents in impressively good original unrestored condition with a uniform medium oak finish and just minor usage marks on the table top surface.

We’ve unscrewed the top from the leg framework to aid transport and ensure it fits through doorways.

Superb value for the money if you are in the market for a larger sized family dining table.

November 18, 2024 No Comments

An excellent example of the  highly popular Robert ‘Mouseman’ Thompson oak standard lamp, the tapered adzed octagonally carved central column leading down to a stepped, swept and facetted octagonal base with  a mouse signature in high relief. Circa 1980s.
