BUTLER & WILSON - VINTAGE GILT HOOP EARRINGS - CLIPS
Here's a pair of 1980's gold tone, hollow, hooped earrings from Butler & Wilson. I do like their older pieces. These are large and have aged well. The hoops are intricate and hollow - so they are not too heavy. See full description on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com - ref: 2574 B131/30 - price £120. ( A bit expensive but they are hard to find!) I always try to have some vintage Butler & Wilson in my shop at Grays Antiques in central London.

JACQMAR LONDON WALL SCARF BY ARNOLD LEVER
No I am not lucky enough to have this scarf! I went to Alfies X-mas Party last night and Lesley Verrinder - a vintage specialist - had just bought it! I was so excited to actually see it - as they are so rare! I think they were made in 1942 for Jacqmar and it was designed by Arnold Lever. It is in the book - Scarves - by Nicky Albrechtsen and Fola Solanke - published by Thames Hudson. It is far out of my price range - but lovely to look at! www.gillianhorsup.com

TOBOGGAN BROOCH - WITH 2 RIDERS - WOOD & EARLY PLASTIC
A vintage brooch depicting a wooden toboggan with two riders. This is probably 1940's. The yellow, early plastic riders have red painted decoration (some of the red paint has rubbed off). This looks like bakelite - but is not testing as such with Simichrome cream. It has red plastic 'ropes'. Full description on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com - price £88 reference B128/35 just love this! #tobogganBrooch #1940sBrooch
