Mid-Century 1950s Vintage Vaulting Horse by H. Hunt & Son — Liverpool
Located in Alton, GB
A rare and striking example of mid-century athletic design, this 1950s vintage wooden vaulting horse by the esteemed H. Hunt & Son Ltd, Liverpool, represents the perfect marriage of utilitarian craftsmanship and timeless form. Originally intended for gymnasium use, this solid piece bears all the hallmarks of the British educational athletic tradition—built for durability, but beautifully aged with character and grace. The branding mark on the leg—“H. Hunt & Son Ltd, Woodend Avenue, Liverpool 24”—authenticates its origin and era, placing it within the heart of British post-war industrial design. This firm, known for manufacturing high-quality physical education equipment, produced gym staples that are now coveted for their robust materials and nostalgic appeal. Constructed from solid beechwood and topped with a plush, aged tan leather or hide, this vaulting horse has gracefully weathered the decades. It separates into two distinct, fully functional components: a bench and a table—each capable of standing on its own both structurally and stylistically. The top section is luxuriously upholstered and softly worn, making it a welcoming seating option, while the lower structure transforms effortlessly into a charming coffee or display table. Whether placed in a refined living space, a high-concept retail environment, or a creative workspace, this piece adds a quiet sense of heritage and strength. It invites interaction and admiration without pretension. The mid-20th century was a golden era for British craftsmanship, where even utilitarian school and gym equipment was made to last. H. Hunt & Son Ltd was one of the key suppliers to UK schools and institutions, known for their dedication to quality and consistency. Items such as this vaulting horse were built to withstand generations of rigorous physical use, and now stand as iconic relics of British design history. Understated and evocative, this H. Hunt & Son vintage vaulting horse...

Three Sterling Silver Mounted Commemorative Horse Hoof Inkwells
Located in London, GB
These interesting inkwells were crafted in Britain between the Victorian period and early to mid-20th century. The works have been created from horse hooves, applied with sterling silver mounts. Each hoof has been set onto a silver horseshoe and features a silver top and lid. Two of the tops have been engraved to imitate real horse hair, while the third is more simple, with banded ornament. All three have been given covers, two of which feature commemorative inscriptions. One lid states, ‘The Grey/1907-1917’ — presumably the name of the favourite racehorse, whose hoof this is — and another reads, ‘Mavourneen/ Died June 29th / Aged 53’. ‘Mavourneen’ is an Irish Gaelic word meaning ‘my beloved’. The dedicatee’s age of 53 implies that they were a human, perhaps a jokey, or racehorse owner. The lids open up onto a silver-lined interior, intended to be used for storing ink as part of a desk arrangement. The inkwells are stamped, on their underside, with silver hallmarks and maker’s marks, ‘J.T.’ and ‘C & CS’. This set of three horse hoof inkwells...
