Vintage Pieces Unearthed Ahead of Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee

Vintage pieces of homeware have been unearthed by an English retro furnishings firm ahead of the celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond Jubilee.

The jubilee coincides with the London Olympics and will see a grand flotilla pass down the Thames river in the centre of London. The anniversary of the Queen’s coronation has sparked great interest in the original ceremony and memorabilia from the time leading RE-found objects to put together a special “REjoice” collection, including original crockery from the 1950’s and even earlier pieces of glassware.

RE-found Objects can be found at Bishops Yard, Main Street, Corbridge, Northumberland, NE45 5LA. Tel: ++ 44 (0)1434 634567. re-foundobjects.com
