Wessex House Antiques has been trading for over 30 years and has developed an enviable reputation for selling high quality genuine antiques at honest prices to buyers across the UK and internationally.
In 2005 I was invited to write the Shire Guide to Staffordshire Figures, recently reprinted, a signed copy of which will be included with the purchase of any Staffordshire or Prattware figure. Also available by special request from the author at £5.99, including postage.

declaration
Wessex House Antiques has clarified that the Pair of Brass Boot Mantel Ornaments c.1820 (LA132721) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1820
condition
The boots have been worn to soft edging from about 200 years of polishing ! Because the brass is thick cut they still hold their shape and detailing, being very solid and comparatively weighty. They are therefore in excellent condition for their age (one just needs a bit more polishing to bring it up to the shine of the other). Please inspect the photographs closely to assess the condition and quality of these interesting items.
