How much for the spin dryer ?

I can't remember Annette, but pop in, Dave who runs Junk&Gems is a great guy and I'm sure you'd get a good deal.

Herrods is over for another year, it's door has closed for the final time.

Thanks to everyone that visited the best (and probably only) art junk shop of 2013. Whether you were appalled, amused, intrigued, disinterested or amazed? always remember the Herrods motto 'Melius mihi hedum potest pingere' (bearing in mind the Herrods copywriter doesn't know the first thing about Latin).

Much gratitude has to go to Dave at Junk&Gems as well, for his leap of faith, sense of humour and hard work.

Here's a few photos of the final days...

Neogeometrist Carl Cashman's hand painted vase sold before it was even on it's display plinth. Watch out for him in 2014, he's got a full year planned with several group shows and a solo show in the US.

Carrie Reichardt, the self-proclaimed renegade potter, was a hot seller this year. And with her exhibiting at the V&A in 2014 she's giving those Romans a good run for their mosaic money.

And finally, to everyone that could be ars*d with reading this thread let alone taking the time to post, thanks. Have a great New Year and may 2014 bring you health, happiness and prosperity.

Didn't want to disappoint... the official Herrods seedy sweat shop just delivered some samples.

No mugs I'm afraid, apart from me, but here's one I produced to celebrate Queenies Diamond Jubilee.
