This collection comprises an assortment of traditional workshop hand tools and a group of six porcelain figurines. The tools include several bench planes: a Stanley Bailey No. 4 smoothing plane with a cast iron body and wooden handles, a Record smoothing plane, and an Acorn smoothing plane with a red-painted base. A Stanley No. 78 duplex rebate and fillister plane is present, with the base marked No 78 MADE IN ENG. Other items include a Stanley No. 60 adjustable spokeshave marked with the patent date FEB.9.86, a wooden-framed bow saw with a central tensioning strut and cord mechanism, and a try square featuring a steel blade and a brass-faced wooden stock. An additional plane base marked No 4 1/2 MADE IN ENG is also present. The porcelain group features six figures. A seated accordion player bears a blue backstamp for the Dulevo Porcelain Works, Russia, including Cyrillic characters. Five further figurines, including a pair of grape harvesters, a cavalier in a blue foliate-patterned frock coat, and a pair of equestrian figures depicting riders leading rearing dappled horses, bear blue crossed line marks to the bases in the style of Meissen or Dresden. These items are likely 19th or 20th-century factory productions, such as those by Samson of Paris. Each figure is finished with hand-painted polychrome enamel decoration and gilt highlights.
