Sandbanks Seagull Windmill - DGK3896

Our Sandbanks  seagulls aren't that interested in chips. There are richer pickings after a day near the beach. Their wings fly around on these wooden windmills when the wind blows in the right direction. Like the real thing, these are made of sturdy stuff with a metal pole that needs to be gently pushed up in to the seagull's wooden undercarriage.

Approx 60 cms to the bottom of the pole and approx 40 cms across. Batteries not required, just a westerly wind will do the job.

Nautical Small Decorative Chair - DGL6390

Measures 40 cms in height by 25 cms in depth and width. More for decorative purposes of the nautical style than for sitting on – due to its’ size perhaps more than most will realise this but worth mentioning. Sea styled colurs and very beachy. Maybe a good idea to purchase one of our stuffed puffer fish for the seat?

Grandmas in Swim Suits - DG55398

They’ve been in the design stage for several decades but are finally here to compete, and compete they shall, with our other large sitting ladies which have been best sellers for many years. These ladies are the next generation up and as we find with that generation, are looking sprightly no doubt from a healthy lifestyle, not much red meat and growing their own vegetables. We find it refreshing when down on the seafront in the Winter to often see several of these braving the elements and long may they continue. Made of resin and we are selling the pair, one in blue and one in red for £9.95. They stand 13 cms high. They are sitting to be placed on the edge of shelves and make a funny nautically themed gift.

Cuddly Beach Lady - DG7643

We like her purples and blues, her red hair too. With a lifering thrown over her shoulder, she's ready to take to the waves.

A good 7 inches tall and an impressive 8 inches around her circumference.  Would look particularly fetching on a bakery counter. Lauren's just asked a customer for a description..."cuddly" was the reply. Oh, and she's made made of plastic resin. That's the beach lady, not Lauren.

We also have her twin sister (not shown) who carries a ball instead of a lifering. Both make a charming and funny nautical gift.

7 inches high

£9.95 each

Galileo Thermometer

Quirky? Cool? Conversation starter, conversation finisher? We have our Galileo thermometers in several sizes and have also introduced the teardrop thermometer too.  

These sealed glass cylinders contain a clear liquid and several  coloured glass vessels of varying density. As Galileo discovered hundreds of years ago, if the density within the vessels differs they bob up and down according to the temperature and the temperature is indicated by the brass tag on the lowest vessel. Well, we think that's the theory.

For those scientifically inclined amongst our customers, we hope we have described the workings of these accurately. Our source of reference was Freddie Mercury's Bohemian Rhapsody where he says Galileo several times in a high pitched voice towards the end of the track so he must have had one of these. We've just downloaded the track on i-tunes and the lyrics don't refer to exactly how his one worked but he does seem quite excited about it.

Galileo thermometers - perfect novelty gifts to accompany "Bohemian Rhapsody" or for those who have not quite saved up enough money for a lava lamp.

Sizes and prices below:

Traditional Bathers

Standing Traditional Bather - DGSW1

Large Lady in Swimming Costume

The large lady in a swimming costume is traditionally a rather good selling line down here on the Dorset Coast. Our ever so slightly large sitting ladies come in resin with swimsuits in one of two colours. A "tongue in cheek" seaside line and these do of course shape around a shelf, like our sitting fishermen, so can reside anywhere where a drawer doesn't slam to knock them off their perch. The flatness of each derriere secures the perfect shelf sitting position for these collectible nautical ornaments.

Approx 4" high and 2" deep

These good quality cloth Captain's Hats are available for the guy or the girl who thinks he or she's in charge.

Another nostalgic piece of nautical fun that is likely to go out of stock if David Beckham gets seen in one.

£6.95 each

Nautical Themed Fridge Magnets

The ubiquitous nautical themed fridge magnet! We sell these in volume in our shop so it's only fair they have a place on our website. Found in coastal resorts throughout the UK and often over written with the name of the resort the buyer is visiting. These ones are a lot more pleasing to the eye and come in four rustic blue nautical designs. They measure approximately 3 inches in height and 2 inches in width, are made of resin and have a magnet on the back unsurprisingly. Perhaps not a future "cash in the attic" line but the best new design we've seen this year! Some customers have bought these to use as wedding favours.

Beach Hut Fridge Magnet
Lighthouse Fridge Magnet
Sea Scene Fridge Magnet
Boat Fridge Magnet

The Love Camper Van - DG6658

Metal painted model camper van and this is one of the three we are selling this year.  A decade ago when we began selling online, a long time before Etsy and the other one beginning with A we had a great pale blue camper van and it sold so well we took all our suppliers’ stock. It has since been a problem finding similar style and quality but perhaps we have it here. These measure 27 cms in length.

Metal Painted Camper Van - DG6660

A little smaller than the Love Camper van but a nice length at 20 cms  and painted in the tradition and popular pale blue.

Hanging Wooden Seagull Mobile - DGMGWD702

Back by popular demand and also called seagull flappers. Singularly the most difficult wooden animal to film in the wild as real seagulls appear from nowhere, tilt their heads sideways and adopt a breeding posture. We found somewhere quiet for the photo shoot and apologise for the poor quality of these pictures. 3 minutes photographing was long enough.

These wooden seagull mobiles hang on string, pull the string downwards and the wings flap. If you do this outside this movement is guaranteed to attract the attention of any passing gull with time on its hands.

Measures 26 inches from top of the string to base string with the small wooden bobble on it. This is the bit you pull to create flapping affect. Measures 17 inches from hanging part of string to wooden base of seagull. Wingspan is 12 inches and length of seagull is 8 inches. Great to hang from children's bedrooms ceilings as a seaside mobile, but do have string parts so not suitable to children under the age of three.

We supplied these hanging seagull mobiles for ITV's 60 Minute Makeover programme!
