Product description from their website:

Inspired by the collection of Grotesques filling the Monk's Parlour in the crypt area of the Sir John Soane Museum. It was with mixed feelings that Soane watched a rising public fashion for the Gothic style. He designed this playfully sombre space, the Monk's Parlour to satirise this style.  

Taken from the medieval carvings found upon the misericords and supporters within the choir stalls of Exeter Cathedral. This carving is of a goblin, similar in appearance to that of a gargoyle but carved from wood and found indoors. This reproduction carving stands proud when hung upon a wall and makes a most attractive and interesting focal point.

Oakapple Designs Ltd are the only company in the UK with permission to take moulds from original medieval carvings from within the Cathedrals of Britain and to then reproduce them for sale. These reproductions are cast from a resin composite and then stained to give the product all the fine detail, feel and authenticity of the original carving.

Fitted with a ring for hanging. Size is approx 90 mm x 70 mm

Product description from their website:

During the Second World War, London was transformed at night by the sounds of sirens, falling bombs and crackling fires, and the spectacle of searchlights scanning the skies. At dawn, sights appeared that shocked but also stirred the creative spirit.

Wartime London in Paintings shows how the artists of the 1940s responded to the drama of London under attack. Drawing on IWM’s unmatched collection, this richly illustrated book delves into how 36 artists recorded scenes of the city while at the same time enduring the privations of war.

Hardback, 192 pages

From our Mrs Dickens's range, this caramelised onion chutney brings you the taste of the Victorian pantry. Onions are blended with dates, apples, spices and malt vinegar to create a gorgeously sweet and tangy chutney. Made exclusively for the Charles Dickens Museum, it’s the perfect gift, savoury treat or souvenir.

Catherine Dickens, nee' Hogarth, was the wife of Charles Dickens from their marriage in 1836 till Dickens's death in 1870, though the couple separated in 1858. A renowned hostess and gregarious entertainer, Catherine published her own 'book of fares' in 1852 called 'What Shall We Have For Dinner?' Containing recipes and menus for groups of 2 to 12 people, it not only demonstrates Catherine's canny ability to host parties of all sizes, but it offers us a rare glimpse into what the Dickens family themselves often ate. 

This delicious chutney is made in England.

The Whole Course of Chirurgerie by Peter Lowe. Being a Facsimile of the First Edition of 1597, with Engravings from the Second Edition of 1612. Classics of Medicine Library in collaboration with the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, 1981.

This work by Peter Lowe, founder of what is now known as the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, is the first complete treatise on surgery to be written in English and the first to be designed with the student in mind. The work outlines the surgical operations carried out in the 16th century, within the context of humoral medicine. The illustrations of medical instruments at the rear of the book are taken from the second edition of 1612. They are similar to those of the great French surgeon, Ambroise Paré, who may well have exerted a strong influence on Lowe's surgical education.

Hardback.
