Description
Coffin Carrier – Original Devonshire Cart
Completely original coffin carrier cart. Located in a barn in the Devon countryside this is an amazing piece of rural or village history.
Whether this is destined for a rural museum or as a prop in a show or film. We could also imagine this being used as a retail display piece or even as a table base. Either way there’s certainly something about this old cart and it comes with a somewhat macabre history, if only it could tell you it’s story!
Not sure of it’s age, possibly 19th C or early 1900’s but it’s only a guess.
Dimensions~
180cm long by 80cm wide and around 600mm height.
Priced individually as it’s unique piece.
Our aim at GB Salvage is to create stunning industrial furniture made with parts from planes, boats, subs and heavy industry. This aim inevitably means we buy a lot of stock that is very time consuming and costly to convert into finished furniture. Therefore in this category you will find parts and components. You can then ask us to convert these items for you or we’ll happily help you do it. Alongside rusty parts we haven’t yet had time to convert, you’ll also find our finished projects. We have a range of beautiful seats, tables and mirrors.
We hope that showing our raw materials will help inspire project and furniture ideas you’ll want to discuss. As you’ll see we also sell the components ready for conversion.
Under certain circumstances, we also offer a rental service for film companies, sets, props and one off events. So please get in touch if you’d like to come and see all our stock and discuss a project.
A range of military parts sourced from the MOD ranging from a small cog right up to missile bases, bombs and 6m long fuel tanks. We focus on British military goods but do occasionally find foreign military pieces of interest. And we also specialise in modern era militaria but do have the odd antique gunsight for example on offer.
We convert and restore every item we can but occasionally have to offer our components for sale to generate space. Therefore in this section you’ll find items we haven’t yet got to. We’d love to discuss your project idea and can convert items to your specification. We undertake work for private and commercial clients.
Under some circumstances we will rent or hire out stock, this tends to be for film companies to use on set as props. Having said that these days over sized furniture is very fashionable so we will also consider requests for retail, open homes and commercial events. Please get in touch to discuss your idea.
