The Top 5 Fun Pieces of Restored Vintage Furniture & Accessories
Fun furniture isn't a new invention. Ever since the first caveman carved an amusingly-shaped chair out of an old log and some mammoth tusks, people have looked to make kooky and intertesting looking furniture. So it should be no surprise that a canny buyer can pick up some real bargains when it comes to interesting restored furniture and accessories...
The Top 5 Pieces of Fun Vintage Restored Furniture (For Under £100)
Number One - The Gardeners Handbook, 1944
In the forties, people in Britain were being told to "Dig For Victory!" as the Second World War rumbled on for half a decade. So it's no surprise to learn that a few gardening accessories still remain. The "Good Housekeeping Gardening Calendar) was published in 1944 for 1/6d and remains as relevant today as it always has. The home vegetable gardener will find it indispensible!
While not necessarily a piece of furniture, The Gardeners Handbook would look amazing framed on a kitchen wall - especially as a counterpoint to some forties themed furniture.
Number Two - Vintage Deckchair with Retro Fabric
Most people have a memory of scorching summers spent on sunny beaches - so relive those memories in the comfort of your own home with a beautiful vintage wooden deckchair with vibrant retro Designer's Guild fabric.
Perfect for reclining with a cocktail on your decking or lawn, a retro deckchair is a great way to capture a summer holiday feel in your garden. And, best of all, there's not going to be a man coming round to ask you for 50p to rent the seat every time you sit down in it!
Number Three - Vintage Wooden Dice Roller
The best thing about an antique table is playing a retro board game on it. And most games need dice to play them properly.
So what better way to show off a table's lighter, more playful side than with a vintage dice roller? Made from olive wood with brass inlays, it's the perfect way to make sure that overenthusiastic rollers won't lose all of your dice!

Bookshelves can be boring, but an antique book end can easily brighten them up, while keeng your books safe and secure.
A pair of scotty dog book ends from the 1950s are perfect for children and dog lovers alike - especially if their shelves leave a lot to be desired in the fun and fashionable stakes!
