Base of a small oil lamp (Kennington OX1)
Base of a small oil lamp. At least I think that's what it is, although I have no idea how you could actually fill it! The base is the size to fit on the palm of your hand and sounds as though it's filled with something like gravel. It still has a wick, and the winding mechanism works.

Useless 3/4 size violin (Kennington OX1)
Gifted
Useless 3/4 size violin in case. This belonged to a friend. It's a cheap Chinese made violin with a broken bridge and a plastic bow that has snapped and been glued back together. I have looked into getting it working but it would cost more than just buying a reasonable brand new student outfit. Best use would be as decoration or something like that. The case is ok but only 3/4 size so no use to me either! Collect from Kennington please say when you could come.
