About Us




My name is Sylvie Collett and welcome to my website, Sewantiques. I hope this introduction will provide you with useful information about me and the antiques I sell.

I have been involved with both antiques and needlework for many years and since 1995 have managed to combine both these interests. I specialize in antique needlework tools, including work boxes, pincushions, thimbles, lace bobbins, etuis, necessaires, tape measures, needlecases, and chatelaines. In addition to the sewing related antiques I also sell Tunbridgeware, Mauchlineware and Tartanware, hat pins, button hooks, scent bottles and occasionally, samplers and dolls.

My other stock consists mainly of small silverware including decanter labels, caddy spoons, bookmarks etc., Doulton Lambeth pottery, Georgian to Edwardian glassware including "Mary Gregory", and other objets du virtu. The items I stock are almost entirely antique and as such will usually have some signs of wear commensurate with age. Any major defects, damage or repairs will be noted in the item description.

I live in Lincolnshire, UK, but exhibit stock at a number of antiques fairs in the UK if you wish to view items. The details of these can be found under the Fairs Calendar button. I also occasionally list items on eBay.co.uk under the seller ID "sylvie.c" and there is a link to these items from the home page.

Please feel free to browse around this site. If you have comments or questions about my products or services, or simply need more information and want to contact me, click on the contact button at the bottom of the page.
