This piece was made by Kensington Pottery in England. The mark on the bottom was used from 1937-61 but the art deco style of the chair likely dates this piece to the late 1930s. The deep well of the seat would make an excellent trinket dish, or it could be used as an ashtray.
It is 4.5″ wide, a little over 3.5″ front to back and 2.75″ high at the back. It has overall crazing but otherwise it is in excellent condition. It has some wear on the gold of the arms but I don’t think it was ever used as anything other than an ornament.

Re shipping. When you check out you will be quoted a price for the shipping based on your address and the estimated physical size and weight of the package.
All items destined to any country outside of Canada (including USA) will have tariffs applied (percentage of the item’s value depending on the country of origin) and brokerage fees (approx $2).
Items destined to the USA require a label or mark stating the country of origin – in many cases vintage items aren’t marked and I may have to physically attach such a label myself.
I use Chit Chats, a Canadian shipping company that shops around for the best rates from both public and private sources worldwide.
All items are packed carefully and securely. I use recycled materials wherever possible. Most shipments are insured.
I will combine shipping on multiple purchases whenever appropriate in order to save you money. I will refund the saving when the items are shipped.
If you live or work in the vicinity of Whitby, Ontario, you can pick up your purchase and save the shipping charges. You could also drop by and view the items we’ve listed in person. See address below.
