We have always endeavoured to give a first class postal service by using Royal Mail,however they have now not only increased prices,but further complicated things by adding size restrictions.
Previously all we had to do was calulate weight to arrive at a price.We can no longer go on weight alone and it is impossible now to price accurately.
Parcels will now be sent a variety of ways,some by post,others,particularly weightier ones,by courier.
Price bands are now as follows:-
Up to 100g......Free
Up to 1 Kilo £5
Up to 1.5 Kilo's £8
Up to 2 Kilo's £12
Over 2 Kilo's £18
You can always calulate postage cost before checkout as before.
Overseas charges are still calculated by weight but anything over 2 Kilo's please ask for a quote.
We love what we do and have been around long enough to know what quality and customer service actually means.
Due to the scarcity & unique nature of the stock we hold, we can never guarantee to supply quantities,matching sets or repeats.Most items are simply one-offs never to be seen again (although we're always happy to search for you, if you send us your wants list)
We restore everything in-house and supply in full working order where applicable.
Brass items are supplied polished and unlacquered.
All ironwork is given a protection against rust,this acts as a primer for painting if desired.
Please read descriptions for any deviation to the above.
Remember we exist for the purist who wants absolutely correct & original fittings.
Many will remember us from The Victorian Ironmonger in Brinklow Warwickshire,well we now have a new location in beautiful South Shropshire.
We are delighted to welcome customers old and new BY APPOINTMENTto our Elizabethan farmhouse & ancillary buildings to view our stock of period house fittings and associated antiques.
We are happy to freely advise on your door furniture problems or offer advice as to the correct fittings for your property.
We constantly search for additional stock (add your wants to our search list below) or if you have similar items surplus to requirements please contact us.
We are here to help.
"There is hardly anything in the world that someone cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price alone are that person's lawful prey.
It is unwise to pay too much, but it is also unwise to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money, that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything because the thing you bought is incapable of doing the thing you bought it to do.
The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot... It can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder it is well to add something for the risk you run. And if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better."
attributed to John Ruskin (1819 - 1900)
