✨ JUST IN — AND WHAT AN INCREDIBLE FIND! ✨

The moment we saw these, we fell in love with them. After carefully researching their construction, distinctive brass fittings and fascinating history, we discovered just how special they are.

This is a rare matching graduated pair of early-to-mid 20th-century Korean Nong/Morijang cabinets, believed to date from approximately 1920–1950.

Their elm-faced panelled fronts are decorated with traditional brass butterfly fittings—symbols of happiness, prosperity and harmony. Both cabinets retain their paper-lined interiors and individual fitted stands, while the taller cabinet also provides four useful upper drawers.

Shorter cabinet: 76 × 89.5 × 46 cm
Taller cabinet: 86.5 × 89.5 × 46 cm

Beautiful, practical and filled with cultural history, this is a genuinely striking pair that would completely transform a room.

Pieces like these rarely appear together—don’t miss your opportunity!

✨ JUST IN – AND ALREADY RESTORED! ✨

We spent the whole night carefully cleaning, treating, repairing and reviving this magnificent Continental three-piece dressing suite, dating from around 1910.

The suite comprises an impressive connected triple-mirrored dressing unit and two matching bedside cabinets. Its beautifully aged original mirrors have wonderful natural patina, giving the entire piece tremendous character and authenticity.

Finished with marble-effect resin tops, decorative gilt mounts, elegant drop handles and ceramic-lined bedside pot cupboards, this is a remarkably complete and eye-catching antique suite.

We have preserved its history and natural character while bringing the rich timber and beautiful decorative details back to life. A truly special statement piece that deserves to be admired.

🔥 **WHERE ONCE THERE WAS A PARAFFIN FLAME, THERE IS NOW LIGHT** 🔥

Here at **The Gavel Antiques & Collectables**, we don’t only buy and sell unusual pieces—we also **design and create our own bespoke lighting** from genuine vintage items.

This unique statement lamp began life as a genuine **Monitor brass paraffin pressure stove**, manufactured in Birmingham by **Monitor Engineering & Oil Appliances Ltd.**

Dating from the mid-20th century, these substantial pressure stoves were built for domestic and outdoor cooking. Surviving Monitor examples are increasingly uncommon and sought after by collectors, particularly those retaining their distinctive brass tanks and original fittings.

We have carefully transformed this wonderful piece of British engineering while celebrating its history rather than disguising it.

The aged brass tank, pressure fittings, steel supports and industrial framework have all been retained. We fitted a quality brass lamp holder and crowned it with a spectacular oversized smoky-amber spiral LED globe.

When switched off, the mirrored globe has a rich bronze appearance. Once illuminated, the glowing spiral resembles a flame rising from the original burner position.

This is not a modern reproduction made to look old. The history, ageing and character are genuine—and the finished lamp is an entirely **one-off creation made here at The Gavel**.

✨ Genuine vintage Monitor stove
✨ British-made in Birmingham
✨ Uncommon surviving original
✨ Designed and converted by us
✨ Original character and patina retained
✨ Oversized smoky-amber LED globe
✨ Unique functional statement lighting

We love finding forgotten vintage objects and giving them a completely new purpose while preserving the character and history that make them special.

🏇 RARE GEORGE BUTLER & CO. SHEFFIELD MULTI-TOOL POCKET KNIFE 🏇

A very special piece of Sheffield cutlery history has arrived at The Gavel.

This remarkable antique George Butler & Co. multi-tool pocket knife dates from the late 19th / early 20th century and is a wonderful survivor from the golden age of Sheffield cutlery.

Made by George Butler & Co. of Trinity Works, Sheffield, it carries the desirable “ART” trademark and retains its genuine period ivory handle scales, beautifully aged with the warm colour and natural character that only comes with time.

What really makes this piece stand out is the extraordinary number of specialist implements contained within one knife. It includes multiple blades, saw, corkscrew, file, reamer, screwdriver and numerous other specialist tools, including implements associated with practical use by horsemen and sportsmen.

The knife remains in wonderfully honest antique condition. We have deliberately left it unpolished and unrestored, preserving the original patina, signs of use and character accumulated over more than a century.

⭐ George Butler & Co. – Sheffield, England
⭐ Trinity Works “ART” trademark
⭐ Genuine period ivory scales
⭐ Extensive multi-tool configuration
⭐ Horseman’s & sportsman’s specialist implements
⭐ Original age-related patina
⭐ Late Victorian / early 20th-century Sheffield craftsmanship
⭐ A highly unusual collector’s piece

This wasn't simply an ordinary pocket knife. It was a serious working multi-tool, produced during an era when Sheffield was internationally renowned for some of the finest cutlery and toolmaking in the world.

For collectors of Sheffield cutlery, antique pocket knives, equestrian memorabilia or unusual Victorian craftsmanship, this is a particularly impressive piece and one we're delighted to have at The Gavel Antiques & Collectables.

📩 Message us for further details, photographs or to arrange a viewing.

Please note: This antique incorporates genuine ivory. Its sale, transport or export will be handled only in accordance with any applicable ivory and wildlife-trade regulations.
