Sam — Mon, 21 Sep 2026 16:03:01 +0000

A lovely Le Creuset boxed screwpull Activ Ball corkscrew.

A classic design by Le Creuset, France.

You simply keep turning and the cork comes out due to the ball holding the cork in place (not tested).

Comes on its original mount and boxed.

Of some vintage – maybe 20 years old.

I think it’s model number GS-200 – please check pictures.

16cm tall.

Shiny black with contrasting textures black. Branding to one side.

Good with a few small marks.

Steel screw is a metallic bronzy colour.

Caithness Canisbay 'Peat' wine glass, 13.5cm tall. Vintage retro 1970s barware

Sam — Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:01:01 +0000

A fab retro Peat (smoky brown) small wine glass, designed by Colin Terris in the 1960s/1970s for Caithness, Scotland.

From the Canisbay range.

Colin was heavily influenced by Scandinavian design, and this series colouring is influenced by the Scottish landscape – this colour is Peat.

I’m pretty sure it’s model no 4060/WI (wine).

Chunky quality item in very good condition.

A tiny scratch (which I couldn’t then find), but very good.

Wobbles to the rim from being handmade/mouth blown – very good rim with no fleabites.

13.5cm (5.5″) tall with a solid glass base.

Apx 160ml, so ideal for a 125ml measure of wine.

Weighty!

A pair of Dartington handmade crystal content glass (double) shot glasses.

About 70ml capacity.

Stamped to bases with etched ‘Dartington’.

Flat polished rims.

Quality, mouth blown in the UK.

Both great.

9 vintage Finnish cocktail coasters 1980s, black retro drinks mats. Finland tin

Sam — Wed, 26 Aug 2026 16:02:01 +0000

A super set of six retro drinks coasters.

Likely vintage 1980s, these are by GWS (Oy G. W. Sohlberg Ab.) and are made in Finland.

Made for the British market so just labelled ‘foreign’.

Each mat depicts a different mixed cocktail, to the reverse is its name and recipe with (old school) measures.

We have Bacardi, Manhattan, White Lady, Gin Fizz, Singapore Sling, Paradise, Bloody Mary, Grasshopper and Old fashioned.

The coasters are flat and round with a small lip.

Black with retro prints.

Each one is 8cm x 6mm high – quite petite and perfect for a mid century/retro home bar.

Flat inners are about 7.3cm wide (please check they suit your glasses).

Good condition coasters with some crackling to the lacquer on each.

Bottom right one has some rust.

A bit of 80s fun for the home bar.

4 HOLMEGAARD Glasses, Canada smoke. 3 Cocktail 9cm & Liqueur shot glass. Danish

Sam — Wed, 26 Aug 2026 16:01:01 +0000

A set of three smoke (retro greeny/grey) vintage ‘cocktail’ glasses in the ‘Canada’ design by Per Lutken for Holmegaard, Denmark.

The design dates from 1955, and they were in production until 1990.

These could date from any time from the 1950s to 1980s, but most likely to be 60s/70s vintage.

‘Canada’ is a Danish Modern classic design.

The smoke version of Canada is often referred to as Scanada because the original boxes used S for smoke as a prefix before ‘Canada’.

Three of these are the 10cm size Canada glasses – the ‘9cm cocktail glas’.

They would hold a double shot or a mixed drink or a small stronger wine etc.

Along with the 9cm slim 8cm tall ‘snapsglas’.

Perfect for smaller single shots.

Unsigned.

Being handmade they vary very slightly, see photos.

Larger glasses are excellent usable examples – great to add to a set.

Little one is also very good.
