South Country Antiques

Based in the beautiful county of Sussex, England, we offer a curated collection of antiques and decorative pieces that blend timeless craftsmanship with modern style.
What began over twenty years ago as a passion for collecting objects rich in history and character has grown into a refined selection of pieces chosen for their quality, beauty, individuality and yes a bit of quirkiness. Each item tells its own story, from elegant furnishings and original artworks to unique curios that add depth and distinction to contemporary interiors.
We believe true luxury lies in authenticity and craftsmanship. Every piece in the collection is thoughtfully sourced to bring heritage, artistry, and a sense of understated sophistication into today’s living spaces.

Description
Early 20th Century Hand Painted “For Sale” Sign
A wonderfully characterful early 20th Century hand painted estate agent’s sign, executed on a solid oak board and displaying superb period typography. The bold red “FOR SALE” header immediately catches the eye, while the remainder is finely hand-lettered in black, advertising the joint sole agents E.J. & R.S. Ashby and Woods & Co., both based in Northampton.
The sign features charming period details, including the old street addresses 81 Sheep St. and 18 Castilian St. as well as early telephone numbers. The painted surface shows attractive age related wear, scuffs, and patina consistent with long outdoor use, giving it an authentic, timeworn look without compromising legibility.
Sign is painted on a thick oak board with a naturally weathered finish, this piece has a fantastic decorative presence ideal for interiors with industrial, rustic, or vintage commercial themes.
Condition: Showing heavy dusting with surface wear, minor losses and fading to paint, solid and stable.
Sign is: 60cm by 45cm by 2.5cm in thickness.
