Ship's Bells

While not being on the scale of Big Ben, these are very substantial, heavyweight bells and have been supplied to world navies and shipping companies as well as pleasure boaters and home owners. Each is manufactured in the finest age old tradition - sand-cast solid brass turned and polished to an immaculate sheen. These are very solid and very sonorous bells, redolent of those on ships on which you may have served. They are unlacquered so they don't discolour, but will develop an attractive and authentic patina over time.

The Fly Navy motif is exclusive to Navy Wings

Lanyard supplied separately

These bell ropes are hand-tied in natural colour cotton with traditional knots, and make the essential finishing touch to a ship's bell.

Quayside Bells

This range of bells is also traditionally made in solid brass, but to a standard weight yet still with a loud and distinct tone. Quayside bells have a slightly smaller, triangular mounting (see image).

Quayside bells are supplied with a cotton bell rope.

Bells are made to order, so there may be a short delay. 

Ideal for any aviation enthusiast. These unique bookends feature genuine aircraft gauges and parts from classic aircraft of the 60's and 70's.

It isn't always possible to be specific because many components were used in more than one aircraft type and some were alternatives to the standard type factory fitted.

Sold in pairs and made from English oak, these beautiful handmade items are treated with a wax and oil finish to bring out the pattern of the grain and to protect the wood.

Standard - Approx 19cm high x  20cm wide
Large -  Approx 29 x 20 x 22

N.B. The appearance may vary from the illustration in terms of the markings/colour of the wood and the type and number of gauges.

These are made to order, so there may be a delay in shipping.

A 30mm training or 'ballast' round mounted on a solid wood plaque. These rounds, identical in size and weight to the real thing, were used in armourers drill to replicate the feel of the real thing when practicing arming an aircraft. They also enabled pilots to fly an aircraft weighted as if fully armed.

It could easily be wall mounted and repurposed with hooks as a key holder or with fittings/holes as a pen holder for your desk.

A dramatic part of British aviation history mounted on a handmade wooden plinth.

This is a very rare, substantial and unusual statement piece for the home or office. 

The Sea Fury was the pinnacle of piston powered Royal Naval aviation and traced it's lineage back through the Typhoon and Tempest. A 2500hp power house, multi-purpose aircraft that was as capable as a fighter with four 20mm cannon as it was as a bomber carrying up to two 1000lb bombs or a complement of up to 16 rockets.

Although the Sea Fury first flew in 1945, it had the misfortune to be introduced into squadron service in 1947 at a time when jet technology was coming of age. Its service life was consequently brief. It was retired from the Fleet Air Arm in 1953, but not before it had played a noteworthy role in Korea where one aircraft shot down a MiG15 jet fighter.

With a maximum speed of c.460mph and superb all-round performance, this sleek and eye catching aircraft has become an icon.

A very few remaining airworthy examples are on the display circuit or are used for racing at Reno.

615 were produced for the Fleet Air Arm with c. 250 more providing good service for the navies of  Canada, Australia and the Netherlands.

N.B.

1) Please note that these are black on one side and silver on the other

2) Each propeller stub is in excess of 20kg.

This intriguing lamp incorporates part of a jet aircraft. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to pin down exactly what it is due to a lack of part numbers, although our engineers have a suspicion that it might be from Sea Harrier.

That notwithstanding, it is a fabulous design. A great addition to your living room or study and a real talking piece.
