    This 1970s textile artwork is a serene and finely handwoven tapestry that captures the graceful simplicity of wildflowers through a distinctly Scandinavian modernist lens.

    Depicting a cluster of white narcissi, the composition radiates calm and balance. The flowers, with their pure white petals accented by subtle blue-grey shadows and warm orange-yellow centres, rise elegantly among slender green blades of grass. The vertical rhythm of the leaves and stems gives the piece a gentle upward motion, as if the flowers are stretching toward the light.

    The earthy brown background provides a rich contrast, grounding the composition and allowing the whites and greens to appear luminous and fresh. This natural palette — of greens, whites, and browns softened by muted tones — reflects the Nordic reverence for nature’s quiet beauty and seasonal transitions.

    Mounted on a neutral linen border, the piece exudes a tactile warmth and timeless craftsmanship. The woven texture enhances the organic quality of the design, inviting both visual and tactile appreciation.

    Elegant in its restraint and evocative in its simplicity, this 1970s tapestry embodies the Scandinavian ethos of finding harmony in nature — a handwoven celebration of purity, renewal, and understated beauty.

    This vintage tapestry remains in very good condition. It is mounted onto fabric lined board, and is ready to hang. The needlepoint is very slightly irregular, which is typical for handmade or traditionally textile pieces, adding to its authenticity and charm.

    This 1970s textile artwork is a charming and whimsical handwoven tapestry depicting a newlywed couple beneath a bright sun — a joyful celebration of love rendered in the folk-modern style so characteristic of Scandinavian textile art of the period.

    At the centre stands the bride and groom, simply but expressively portrayed: the bride in a long white gown and veil, holding a bouquet of pink flowers, and the groom in a black suit and top hat. Their figures are stylised and symmetrical, framed by two tall blue flowers that echo traditional wedding motifs of purity and growth.

    The background is a deep midnight blue or black, which makes the bright colours — yellows, greens, pinks, and blues — radiate with warmth and optimism. Above, a golden sun with radiating beams shines down on the pair, while beneath them a field of cheerful yellow daisies anchors the scene in a meadow-like setting.

    Mounted on a neutral linen backing, the piece has a rustic yet refined presence. The handwoven texture and slightly naive proportions lend it a tender, storybook quality — a perfect blend of folk tradition and 1970s artistic playfulness.

    It’s a heartfelt, symbolic work that captures not just a moment but a feeling — one of innocence, warmth, and enduring joy — lovingly woven into fabric.

    This vintage tapestry remains in very good condition. It is mounted onto fabric lined board, and is ready to hang. The needlepoint is very slightly irregular, which is typical for handmade or traditionally textile pieces, adding to its authenticity and charm.

  • Under the Sea

    Under the Sea

    £65

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This 1970 textile artwork is a playful and colourful handwoven tapestry that encapsulates the cheerful modernism of Scandinavian design from the era.

    At its centre swims a stylised fish, depicted in bold geometric forms and bright hues of orange, yellow, lilac, and coral pink. Its body is segmented with rhythmic stripes, and a round blue eye pops vividly against its pale face. The fish’s form, while simplified, conveys a lively personality — it seems almost animated as it glides across the composition.

    Surrounding it is a softly variegated blue background suggesting water, with hints of movement rendered through gentle tonal shifts. Black, linear motifs rise vertically on either side, resembling underwater plants or reeds, grounding the fish within its aquatic world. Above, a few horizontal yellow dashes evoke the glimmer of sunlight filtering through the surface.

    Mounted neatly on a light linen backing, the piece balances playfulness with craftsmanship. The artist’s use of strong contrast, simplified forms, and tactile weaving brings warmth and charm to a simple subject.

    This tapestry beautifully captures the optimism and stylised naturalism characteristic of early 1970s Nordic textile art — an enchanting fusion of folk whimsy, mid-century abstraction, and childlike joy.

    This vintage tapestry remains in very good condition. It is mounted onto fabric lined board, and is ready to hang. The needlepoint is very slightly irregular, which is typical for handmade or traditionally textile pieces, adding to its authenticity and charm.

    This 1976 textile artwork is a warm, handwoven tapestry that captures the quiet beauty of nature through a distinctly 1970s Scandinavian modernist sensibility.

    Depicting a cluster of stylised yellow and ochre blossoms, the piece radiates a gentle autumnal glow. The flowers — rendered in tonal variations of golden yellow, mustard, and amber — are scattered rhythmically across a richly textured brown background. Subtle greens emerge from below, suggesting stems and foliage, grounding the composition with natural balance.

    The artist’s approach is both abstract and organic: the blooms are simplified to essential rounded forms, their soft edges blending harmoniously into the earthy backdrop. The interplay between light and dark tones gives the flowers a quiet luminescence, as though illuminated by late afternoon sunlight.

    Mounted neatly on a neutral linen border, the tapestry exudes an understated elegance. Its palette of browns, yellows, and greens evokes a deep connection to the natural world — a hallmark of Scandinavian textile art from the era, where craftsmanship and nature coexisted seamlessly.

    Peaceful and contemplative, this 1976 work feels like a woven ode to the changing seasons — warm, tactile, and full of quiet life.

    A bright and serene mid-century still life that captures a cluster of orange daylilies basking in sunlight, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1955.

    The artist captures a fleeting, luminous moment with sunlight filtering through leaves and petals, transforming the everyday sight of blooming daylilies into something almost transcendent. There’s a sense of calm vitality here: the blooms, rendered in warm tones of orange and gold with touches of coral and crimson, rise dynamically from the cool greens of their leaves, their upward gesture bringing movement and energy to the composition.

    Rendered with thick, expressive brushstrokes, the work feels both spontaneous and deeply considered. It invites the viewer not only to look but to feel the warmth of the sun and the peaceful rhythm of a day slowly unfolding.

  • Silver Moon Folktale

    Silver Moon Folktale

    £50

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This 1970s textile artwork is a captivating handwoven tapestry that merges myth, fantasy, and modern abstraction into a richly coloured composition typical of Scandinavian textile art from the era.

    At its centre stands a regal female figure — possibly a queen or an ethereal spirit — distinguished by her long flowing blue gown, slender form, and small golden crown. Her dark hair and serene, pale face draw the eye immediately, creating a striking focal point amidst the surrounding geometry of colour. She appears to stand on a circular stage or pedestal, her form tapering elegantly as it rises, evoking both poise and stillness.

    Above her, a luminous sphere — perhaps a moon or an orb of light — glows softly, while behind her, a tapestry of vertical colour blocks in purples, blues, and greens forms an abstract forest or curtain-like backdrop. The angular, overlapping shapes lend the piece a rhythmic sense of movement and depth, as if the scene is unfolding in a dreamlike theatre.

    The palette — a harmony of cool blues, violets, teals, and greens — creates a mystical, nocturnal atmosphere, enhanced by the softness of the woven texture. Mounted on a light linen backing, the work feels both structured and ethereal.

    This tapestry beautifully embodies the 1970s Nordic modernist aesthetic — combining storytelling and symbolism with bold design and craftsmanship. The result is an enchanting, almost fairy-tale-like image that feels timeless, mysterious, and quietly majestic.

    This vintage tapestry remains in very good condition. It is mounted onto fabric lined board, and is ready to hang. The needlepoint is very slightly irregular, which is typical for handmade or traditionally textile pieces, adding to its authenticity and charm.

    This 1970s textile artwork is a graceful handwoven tapestry depicting a single red poppy in bloom — a simple yet striking celebration of natural beauty, rendered in the understated modern-folk style typical of Scandinavian textile art from the era.

    The tall, vertical composition enhances the elegance of the subject: a slender green stem rises confidently from the bottom edge, supporting a vibrant red flower with delicate gradations of crimson, orange, and coral. The poppy’s dark centre provides a point of contrast and visual depth, while a smaller, unopened bud gently bends alongside, adding a sense of life and continuity.

    The background is a soft, heathered mix of greys and creams, creating a tactile neutral surface that allows the colours of the flower to stand out vividly. A subtle yellow inner border frames the design, drawing the eye inward and giving the piece a quiet, sunlit warmth. Mounted on a pale linen base, the presentation feels both modern and organic.

    The overall effect is serene and timeless — a study in restraint and harmony. Each woven thread contributes to the tapestry’s handmade charm, where simplicity of form and richness of texture coexist beautifully.

    This work encapsulates the spirit of 1970s Nordic design: nature-inspired, soulful, and crafted with a deep respect for the tactile poetry of the woven medium.

    This 1970s textile artwork is a charming handwoven tapestry featuring a single red poppy, rendered with the clarity and simplicity characteristic of Scandinavian modern-folk design.

    The elongated vertical format gives the composition an elegant, almost poetic presence. Rising gracefully from the base, a slender green stem branches into an open poppy blossom at the top — its rich red petals softly variegated in tone, with a dark central core lending definition and depth. Beside it, a small, unopened bud bends tenderly, adding a note of natural rhythm and gentle asymmetry.

    The flower stands against a subtly textured neutral background woven in pale greys and off-whites, creating a calm backdrop that enhances the vividness of the red and green. A fine yellow border runs along the edges, giving the tapestry a touch of warmth and framing the design with understated precision.

  • Difficult Tableau

    Difficult Tableau

    £350

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

    This painting showcases Durling’s distinctive abstract vocabulary—tactile, spatially quiet, and emotionally charged through texture and colour. It feels like a visual diary entry composed of silences punctuated by vivid moments.

    Durling introduces small blocks of intense, saturated colours including jet black, fiery orange, acidic yellow, and forest green, scattered throughout the pale background like thoughts breaking through quietude. Thick, painterly textures dominate the surface. The paint is almost sculpted, making the canvas a physical object as much as a visual one. This adds emotional depth—you sense that each mark carries intention and presence.

    This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame again complements the painting beautifully—earthy and solid, grounding the delicate and expressive content within.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Lloyd is based in London and his practice is painting-based. His first international solo show was in 2010 at Golden in Chicago and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, Asia and the US. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Lloyd’s works are held in public and private collections worldwide, including the Whitworth Art Gallery and Museum, Progressive collection, America and Nomura Bank, Japan.

  • Jars & Blue Plate

    Jars & Blue Plate

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant mid-century still life captures a quiet, everyday arrangement of two earthenware jars, a cobalt-blue plate, and a few scattered lemons upon a sunlit tabletop, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The artist’s confident use of impasto brushwork brings the scene to life – thick, textural strokes of paint that reveal the artist’s hand in every movement.

    The palette is warm and expressive, balancing earthy yellows, terracottas, and muted greens with the striking contrast of the luminous blue plate that commands the centre of the composition. The interplay of these tones gives the piece both harmony and energy, while the textured surface adds a tactile, sculptural quality.

    Painted in a distinctly modernist manner, the forms are simplified and the focus is placed on colour relationships and surface texture rather than precise realism. The work evokes the quiet beauty of domestic life, elevated through a painter’s expressive eye.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a simple light wooden frame that complements its rustic aesthetic. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Shared Moments

    Shared Moments

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A beautifully atmospheric mid-century modernist oil painting depicting two figures in a quiet interior scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

    One is seated at a table, leaning gently forward, while the other stands nearby, their forms simplified and softened, inviting the viewer into an intimate moment. Light floods in from a large window in the background, casting a pale blue glow that contrasts against the deeper, earthy tones of the room.

    Rendered with expressive brushwork and impasto, the artist has used broad, confident strokes to build form and texture, giving the surface a tactile, almost sculptural quality. The muted greys, dusky mauves, and slate blues are gently warmed by accents of ochre and terracotta in the standing figure’s clothing, adding a subtle focal point to the composition.

    The scene carries a sense of stillness and familiarity – a fleeting domestic moment captured through abstraction, where emotion is conveyed not through facial detail but through posture, colour harmony, and the soft diffusion of light.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary mid-century style frame with a softly textured, linen lined surface. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Things Far and Near

    Things Far and Near

    £350

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

    This painting showcases Durling’s hallmark abstract language—minimal yet emotionally charged, textured yet airy. It’s a small piece that feels quiet but confident, introspective and balanced, like a private rhythm unfolding in colour and texture.

    As with much of Durling’s work, the surface is highly textured, with thick layers of paint that create a tactile, almost geological quality. The canvas feels worked, scraped, and layered, like time embedded in paint.

    The background is dominated by a soft minty green and pale pink base, giving the work a calm and gentle tone. Accents of bold black, vibrant orange-red, buttery yellow, and bright white interrupt the softness in bursts.

    Despite its abstraction, this piece feels personal and evocative. There’s a delicate tension between order and spontaneity, between soft space and strong marks.

    This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame is a perfect match for this kind of subtle abstraction. It provides a visual anchor without stealing any attention, and its rustic quality echoes the organic textures in the painting itself.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Lloyd is based in London and his practice is painting-based. His first international solo show was in 2010 at Golden in Chicago and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, Asia and the US.

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A quiet and contemplative still life that depicts a simple tabletop arrangement of three green pears and a small blue-grey cup, set against a softly textured background, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 2008.

    The composition is minimalist, yet imbued with a gentle rhythm and balance: the curved organic forms of the pears play harmoniously against the cylindrical solidity of the vessel.

    Rendered in a modern impressionist style, the artist employs loose, visible brushstrokes and layered applications of paint, creating a tactile surface that evokes both depth and light. The palette is composed of delicate shades of green, lemon, sky blue, and muted grey, conveying a serene and contemplative mood. The soft blending and impasto technique suggest a sensitivity to form and colour rather than strict realism, giving the work a quiet poetic presence.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

    This painting  showcases Durling’s signature abstract style—textured, atmospheric, and intuitively composed. It feels like a landscape in dream fragments, full of soft mystery and emotional undercurrents.

    Thick, expressive brushstrokes dominate the surface. The impasto technique (built-up paint) adds a tactile richness, inviting you not just to see the painting, but to almost feel it.

    Muted creams, cool greys, and powdery blues provide a soft base, broken by bold accents—a vivid orange shape, a lemon yellow, and patches of deep forest green. These pops of color create visual rhythm, like beats in a calm but layered melody.

    This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame adds earthiness and grounding to the otherwise ethereal composition. It contrasts beautifully with the soft light tones, allowing the painting’s subtle dynamism to stand out.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Fragments of a Day

    Fragments of a Day

    £805

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking modernist work that presents a scene fragmented into angular planes and interlocking blocks of colour, evoking figures and structures emerging within an imagined landscape, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1972.

    Though abstracted, one can sense the suggestion of human presence and architectural forms –  perhaps a house, a figure, and surrounding terrain reduced to their essential geometric components.

    Rendered in a modernist style, the composition is built from flat, faceted shapes that tessellate across the canvas, creating a rhythmic mosaic. The artist has employed a harmonious yet lively palette of muted peach, terracotta, sage green, browns, dusty pink, teal, and pale blues. These tones shift softly across the surface, creating subtle contrasts and spatial tension without harsh division.

    The brushstrokes are controlled yet visible, giving texture to each block of colour while maintaining an overall crispness in form. Edges are softly defined, hinting at the hand of the painter beneath the structure of the geometry. The result is a composition that feels both architectural and lyrical – an exploration of form and colour that balances abstraction with a whisper of narrative.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary simple wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition

  • Hillside Rhythm

    Hillside Rhythm

    £520

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant mid-century modernist landscape composition that captures an undulating terrain rendered in bold, sculptural brushstroke, and executed in oil onto canvas.

    The scene is abstracted into rhythmic forms where rounded hilltops and faceted slopes are expressed through confident sweeps of the brush, giving the land a sense of movement and tactile energy.

    The colour palette is rich – cool sage, olive, and moss greens intersect with muted stone greys and soft sky blues, creating a harmonious balance between earth and air. The sky is painted in a smooth gradient of pale blue, acting as a calm contrast to the dynamic, textured land below. Each stroke is deliberate and expressive, laid down with visible directionality, giving the impression of wind pushing across the hillsides.

    Painted with an almost sculptural quality, the brushwork creates volume and light without relying on fine detail – typical of the mid-century Scandinavian modernist approach, where form and rhythm take precedence over realism.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary gilt frame with an inner cream border. The painting itself is in very good vintage condition. The frame shows some age-related marks and has a section missing on the right side.

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant and pleasant modernist landscape painting that captures a sweeping view of a coastal hillside descending into a tranquil sea, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1987.

    A cluster of red-roofed houses are nestled amid rich greenery, their geometric forms punctuating the organic curves of the land. The artist has placed emphasis on the play between land and water, with the luminous greens of the sloping bluff set against the expansive calmness of the blue sea.

    The work is painted in a distinctly mid-century modernist style, marked by simplified shapes and strong areas of flat, vibrant colour. The brushstrokes are broad and assured, creating bold patches of green for the trees and fields, with subtle variations to suggest light and texture. The sea is rendered in sweeping strokes of muted blue, providing a serene backdrop that contrasts with the vivid land.

    The palette is dominated by bright greens and earthy browns, harmoniously balanced with cool blues and soft greys in the sky and water.

    The brushstrokes are confident and expressive, applied in thick, visible layers. They build up a rhythmic energy in the greenery while softening into smoother expanses in the sky and sea, striking a balance between vibrancy and calm.

    This oil on canvas is presented in silver wood frame with decorative detail. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    This painting portrays a vast, windswept beach under a dramatic, cloud-streaked sky. The horizon is low and dark, with rolling hills framing the edge of the sea, while the expansive sky dominates the upper half of the canvas in shifting tones of blue and grey.

    Scattered across the wet sand are small, loosely rendered figures, their reflections faintly mirrored on the glistening surface. The central figure draws the viewer’s eye and lends a quiet narrative to the scene. The broad, gentle brushstrokes and subdued palette evoke a fleeting, introspective mood — capturing the stillness and solitude of a moment suspended in time.

    The painting conveys the feeling of being immersed in nature’s vastness, where human presence is small but meaningful, and the world unfolds slowly in light and shadow.

    This painting is unframed, but can be hung as is. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Quiet Pasture

    Quiet Pasture

    £545

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A tranquil and refined mid-century modernist abstract landscape painted in oil onto canvas.

    This painting distils a pastoral scene into its most essential forms – three geometric sheep resting within an expanse of green, beneath a horizon softened by the meeting of land, sea, and sky. Two abstracted tree forms rise in the distance, their masses built from diffused tones of moss, teal, and yellow.

    The artist employs a restrained and harmonious palette — muted greens merging into turquoise blues – evoking both serenity and space. Broad, matte brushstrokes and delicate transitions of tone give the surface a meditative quietness, while subtle traces of underpainting and warm orange edges reveal the artist’s hand and the passage of time.

    Balancing figuration and abstraction, the work speaks to the essence of landscape – not as a literal depiction, but as an emotional and atmospheric impression of stillness, solitude, and the beauty of open space.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary grey wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition

    The Hidden Cove

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric and expressive costal composition, painted onto  canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

    The painting captures a serene and intimate stretch of coastline, where a rugged cliff descends into a secluded bay. The composition leads the viewer’s eye from the grassy, windswept foreground down to the white surf curling against the rocks, and out across the vivid turquoise sea.

    The brushwork is loose and expressive, giving movement to the sea and texture to the land. Shades of teal, sea green, and cobalt blue dominate the palette, evoking freshness and clarity, while subtle earthy tones add contrast and depth to the coastal terrain.

    The painting evokes a sense of discovery and peaceful isolation, as though stumbling upon a quiet, unspoiled corner of nature. It’s a contemplative, windswept scene that invites viewers to pause and take in the rhythm of the sea.

    This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • The Meeting

    The Meeting

    Sold

    SOLD

    A large and evocative mid-century figurative composition that depicts a group of seated figures gathered around a long white table, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The figures’ forms have been rendered in simplified, almost sculptural blocks of colour. The figures, distinguished by subtle variations in hair colour, posture, and attire are shown in quiet communion, while a standing figure at the head of the table adds a sense of hierarchy or occasion.

    The artist has adopted a distinctly modernist approach: the scene is pared back to its essential geometry, the narrative implied rather than explicit. The palette is warm yet restrained, with browns, blacks, and muted greens dominating against a rich golden background that imbues the work with both warmth and gravitas. The surface bears visible, expressive brushstrokes, creating a tactile sense of movement and texture.

    The overall effect is one of quiet introspection: a timeless study of human gathering, presence, and form.

    This oil on canvases is housed in very well suited wood and gilt frame.

    Size:  cm (including frame)

    Free domestic (UK) shipping. As this artwork is very large, it is unlikely that we will be able to ship it internationally. If you are very interested and are located outside of the UK, please contact us and we will see what we can do.

  • Moonlit Silhouettes

    Moonlit Silhouettes

    £885

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An introspective mid-century modernist painting, executed in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish artist Fabian Lundqvist (1913-1989), whose works have been represented in many public collections in Sweden.

    A serene and poetic scene unfolds beneath a pale blue evening sky, where two simplified figures stand in quiet conversation beside a cluster of whitewashed buildings. Rendered in a distinctly modernist style, the composition is reduced to pure geometric forms – the gabled roofs forming clean angular shapes against a flat expanse of blue.

    The colour palette is restrained and atmospheric: powder blue for the sky, soft off-white for the buildings, deep charcoal for the ground and rooftops, and a delicate touch of brighter blue in the garment of the standing figure. A pale circular moon hangs in the sky, adding a gentle sense of stillness and introspection.

    Brushwork is intentionally minimal and smooth, favouring broad, even planes of colour with softened edges that blur very slightly, giving the piece a dreamlike quality. The figures are reduced to silhouettes – faceless, quietly present – allowing the viewer to project their own story into the scene.

    This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary frame linen lined frame with a silver border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

    Zennor Coastal

    £745

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed contemporary landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

    The painting presents a sweeping view of the rugged Cornish coastline near Zennor, interpreted through a loose, expressive style. The artist uses a subdued, cool palette of soft greys, whites, muted greens, and hints of blue to evoke the windswept drama of this natural landscape.

    Foreground brushstrokes suggest rocky outcrops and coastal vegetation, leading the eye toward a winding shoreline or inlet that curves through the midground. The hills and cliffs in the distance are rendered in hazy, blended tones that capture the atmospheric light and shifting weather typical of Cornwall. The sky, expansive and heavy with cloud, adds a moody, contemplative tone to the scene.

    Overall, the composition conveys a strong sense of place—wild, remote, and elemental—while maintaining a lyrical abstraction that emphasises feeling over detail.

    This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Quiet Expanse

    £510

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very atmospheric contemporary abstract composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

    The painting captures the serene, meditative quality of a wide, open coastal scene. Soft brushstrokes and a muted palette of pale blues, greys, and sandy beiges evoke the stillness of a tidal flat or beach at low tide, where sea and sky blend almost imperceptibly on the horizon.

    The composition is horizontal and spacious, with distant, darkened headlands framing the scene and guiding the viewer’s eye gently toward the center. The foreground is rendered in translucent layers, suggesting wet sand and shallow pools reflecting the soft light above. There is a sense of vastness and calm, where time seems suspended.

    Overall, the painting conveys peaceful solitude and the quiet grandeur of nature, using minimal detail and harmonious tones to evoke a deeply contemplative atmosphere.

    This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    St Michael’s

    £765

    A beautifully framed large landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

    This painting portrays a striking coastal view of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall. Rendered with expressive, fluid brushwork, the artwork captures the tidal causeway and surrounding seascape under a vast, luminous sky. The distant silhouette of the mount—its castle and chapel just discernible—rises gently from the horizon, serving as a calm focal point against the expanse of water and sky.

    Foreground rocks and textured brushstrokes evoke the movement and shimmer of tidal pools and wet sands, with tones of soft blue, white, and muted earth colors suggesting the meeting of land and sea.

  • Garden Gathering

    Garden Gathering

    £450

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A lively mid-century modernist oil painting that presents a group of figures gathered in a semi-abstract outdoor scene, by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

    The arrangement suggests a social gathering – figures standing and seated together, framed by architecture on one side and lush garden foliage on the other.

    Executed in a modernist style, the piece blends figuration with abstraction. Strongly simplified forms and flattened planes dominate, with outlines and shadow blocks creating sculptural presence. The absence of facial detail recalls both cubist reduction and expressionist distortion, allowing colour and rhythm to take precedence over narrative realism.

    The palette is bold yet harmonious, with deep navy and forest greens offset by vibrant pinks, oranges, and sky blues. Light falls diagonally across the canvas, producing rich contrasts between shadowed areas and illuminated patches. The brushstrokes are broad, gestural, and confident, with layered pigment applied in sweeping movements that build both depth and dynamism.

    This oil on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffing.

  • Green Pears on Table

    Green Pears on Table

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and characterful still life composition executed in tempera on board in 1979, by the established Swedish artist Eric Cederberg (1897-1984), whose artworks have been represented in several public and museum collections across Sweden.

    The painting presents a neat arrangement of five bright green pears – four whole and one sliced open to reveal its pale, almost translucent interior. The fruits are evenly spaced across a deep brown tabletop, their rounded forms casting bold, graphic shadows that anchor them to the surface. Scattered leaves add a touch of organic movement, their linear veins painted in stylised strokes.

    The palette is wonderfully restrained yet vivid: fresh greens for the pears, muted earthy browns in the background, and stark black accents used for shadow and seed detail. The brushwork is clean and deliberate, with flat planes of colour and minimal blending, giving the piece a graphic, almost poster-like quality. Each pear is painted with a confident simplicity, allowing form and silhouette to take precedence over realism.

    This still life celebrates simplicity and bold shape, making it a striking decorative piece with strong visual character.

    This painting on board is presented in a complementary gilt frame with an inner cream border.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some marks and paint loss as shown.
