Free: round occasional table - upcycling project (Risinghurst OX3) 60 cm diameter at top, 46 cm high, lower shelf 45cm diameter, 19 cm high. The frame is constructed of solid oak, the shelf and top are birch plywood and veneered with a dark stained oak veneer. There are 2 small patches missing at the top. It's a functional piece, rather than a show-off piece of furniture. I used the table with a table cloth, so the damaged veneer did not show. With some filler and a bit of paint this could be quite a nice table. I have re-arranged the furniture in this room and now the table is surplus to requirements.

Free: Footbed sandals - indoor slippers (Risinghurst OX3) Esmara from Lidl, size 37. I was a bit too enthusiastic at a bargain - my feet take a size 38, so these are a tat too small. They are in reasonable condition, should certainly last for a summer season. One of the straps shows a bit of wear, but is still intact, see last photo.

Free: hand crafted pyramid mirrors (Risinghurst OX3) Withdrawn This was a project of a batch product of a newly qualified furniture maker with the intention of selling these through galleries. The base is MDF, the mirror is a standard 30cm mirror tile, the body is veneered with fine quality veneers. The one showing in the photos has a birds eye maple veneer. The pyramid can stand on different sides to alter the angle of the mirror facing the viewer. I have 4 of these to give away. Each one with a different veneer, you are welcome to choose the one that you like best. First come first served. It could have pride of place on a dressing table or on a hall table.

Free: cabin bag/luggage bag (Risinghurst OX3) Gifted This luggage bag has the following dimensions: 60x39x20cm and should be fine for the occasional use or for storing items in the loft, just probably not suitable for very frequent travel, as the zip has a flaw at one end. However, if used at the opposite side, it will not affect its use. The bag has 2 wheels, instead of 4 which seems to be more common these days. The extendable handle works fine, just retracting it needs a little kick. Maybe WD40 would solve that issue.
