Percy's Dad - DG3076

We all knew that Percy's dad was going to eventually
make an appearance on the Dorset Gifts website. We didn't know where and we didn't know when, but this statuesque piece
of nautical tin art has arrived on the Nautical Gifts Page and stands an impressive and proud 25 cms in height. He's 17
cms at his very very widest and 5 cms deep. Happiest when dancing (as pictured) - he enjoys watching mayonaisse being made
in the kitchen.

Sammy
The Seahorse - DG2856
|
|
We've been
out searching attractive seahorse products and this one
stands proud on a wooden base at a good 20 cms in height.
We have some real Sammy Seahorses here on the Dorset coast
(spiny seahorses). They arrive at Studland in Spring to
breed and then leave in the Autumn. So Sammy is Sammy the
Studland Seahorse really, or he could be. Numbers of the
real ones are down sadly and some believe this is due to
their natural habitat being eroded by boat anchors. We
have limited numbers of Sammy though and he looks great
out of water and in your coastal home.
Sammy's base is made of wood and Sammy
himself is textured covered shaped tin.

Wooden Ship's Wheel
- DG7335
|


|
Heard the one about the pirate who walks in to a bar with
a wooden ship's wheel attached to the front of his
trousers? The barman says to the pirate..."What's
the ship's wheel for?" and the pirate
replies "I haven't got a clue but it's driving me
nuts". Well we have now decided to sell
these Wooden ship's wheels at Dorset Gifts just so that
you can break the ice, crack the joke and not get a laugh
too. These wooden ship's wheels are a substantial 62 centimetres
in circumference and don't come polished like our others
but with a natural rustic look. Great as nautical wall
decor and a must if you are looking for nautical design
ideas but not recommended as a spare ship's wheel on your
boat! These ships wheels make great marine gifts but are
for decorative purposes only!

These beautiful enamelled cloisonne starfish are a popular nautically

starfish, we sell starfish pictures, we sell starfish gifts so we thought we'd bolt on cloisonne starfish

Fleet Review Telescope
- DG7166
|

|
The ultimate feature window piece for any home with a nautical
setting. In the early 1900s grand clifftop and seaside homes would of course have been considered incomplete
without an impressive brass and wooden telescope on the balcony to view the ships sailing past. You
can still pick the antique ones up, but they have become very expensive collectors’ pieces. More
often than not in the beachside homes you will perhaps occasionally see our reproductions which have
been specially made by a former colonial manufacturer who still produces them for his home market. These Fleet Review telescopes are of course popular and sought after due to the elegant styling and the fact that this is a functional
item, magnifying 25 times with an object lens of 45 mm. Focusing is by finger-tip twist control, from
about 40 yeards to infinity. The sheesham wood tripod, which is similar in appearance and feel to teak,
has solid brass fittings and is height adjustable on each leg to compensate for uneven surfaces. The
brass barrel length is 1 metre and the tripod height adjustable from approximately 110 to 180 centimtres.
Time to watch the ships sail past?

Set of Two Mini-tankards in Wooden Presentation Box - DG 15658
|


|
These mini-tankards in a box are a very popular nautical gift. These brass mini tankards are presented in a natural wooden box and should, in our opinion, only be filled with the Captain's spiced Navy rum! A maritime nautical feature for the office desk or home mantlepiece. These little tankards probably hold about 125 ml of fluids each.
