WELCOME everyone to our small-scale collectables collection.

US: We are non-professional enthusiasts of collectibles both supporting people downsizing and selling on behalf of private collectors.

We see TradeMe as a community with shared values such as acting with integrity, treating everyone with respect, sharing a culture of mutual honesty, communicating politely, and cooperating with us for positive outcomes.

COMBINING: We value those who close trades within 36 hours, send correctly formatted and accurately post-coded addresses and ask about combining if it’s on their mind so we know your hopes.

COURIERS FOR NI: We are always happy to oblige within the terms of the couriers, and encourage everyone to request a quote for a preferred courier in advance. For the NI (e.g. Auckland), Aramex is 11 dollars-something (they are often late, can lose items and break them) while Courierpost is 22-something but their track record is more sound.

RURAL: If you are rural, in a premium locale eg Waiheke, PO Box, please select rural shipping. We prefer you to choose an urban address and save yourself $$$.

PING IS BEST: We prefer Ping for its accountability trail. If we want to refund you, it is possible if you’ve used Ping. Ping is best for you. We recognise some opt for traditional methods, especially for combined lots.

COMMUNICATION IS KING: Please feel free to email us if there is anything wrong!

Now to the item.

This lovely lot is a Collectors' Lot: Vintage to Retro ERICA J E Heath Ltd Black White Stripe Hotel Sugar Bowl. Likely 50s item. Nice round dish. Or wee vase?

Items in very good order and most desirable, and good finish. Excellent example of Heath's porcelain retro ware.

There's no damage and each is a fine specimen and has a nice patina.

After this time, it's a nice lot, measuring 7.5 cm diameter x 6 cm deep. What a charmer. Add it to something else.
