RARE EARLY ROBERT MOUSEMAN THOMPSON 3.8cm NAPKIN RING 1950s WITH SIGNATURE MOUSE

Posted by admin On January 15, 2025

RARE EARLY ROBERT MOUSEMAN THOMPSON 3.8cm NAPKIN RING 1950s. A rare, early Robert’Mouseman’ Thompson napkin ring dating to the 1950s. These little napkin rings are few and far between. They measure just 3.8 cm, so much smaller than the later napkin rings that got bigger and bigger as the decades went on, eventually measuring 5 cm. I’ve taken a picture of this early napkin ring with a later example so the size can be compared, the vintage example is not included in the sale. Regarding condition, it has a split (see pictures) with a dark line running over it. Other than that, the condition is excellent. The mouse is particularly well carved with no damage, the colour is beautiful, and it has wonderful patina. Finding any early, rare Mouseman piece under 200 pounds is practically impossible, so it’s great to be able to bring something like this to the market which has age and rarity. It is also still very useable today.

SUPERB RARE EARLY ROBERT MOUSEMAN THOMPSON TEA TRAY WITH 2 SIGNATURE MICE 1940’s

Posted by admin On October 28, 2024

RARE EARLY ROBERT MOUSEMAN THOMPSON TEA / DRINKS TRAY WITH 2 SIGNATURE MICE – 1940s. A superb hand carved Robert’Mouseman’ Thompson tea tray, dating to the 1940s. These rectangular shaped trays are very highly sought after by collectors as they are quite rare to the market, normally they are kidney shaped. It has 2 well carved early signature mice either end of the tray. It is a beautiful dark oak colour with wonderful patina. It has also been hand adzed to the top as well as all around the rim. It is in very good condition with just some minor wear to the rim (please see pictures) and some water staining to the top and bottom. Other than that, it just has wear consistent with the age of the piece, which is to be expected as it is now approximately 80 years old. A lot of these early trays are heavily stained and warped due to drinks spillages. This one is in nice condition, a good example. It measures 55.5 cm (including mice handles) x 31.2 cm. Buyers are welcome to collect, I live just a few miles north of Durham. I have quite a few Mouseman pieces for sale, including a bespoke lamp, and an early stool – please see my other items.
