With a long list of repeat customers, both trade and private, Mr Jolly’s is much more than just an online shop. We understand the amazing world of collectables and are always happy to help in any way we can.
Drawing on over thirty years’ experience, we can assist with the valuation, appraisal and dispersal of single pieces or entire collections.
We specialise in locating elusive individual pieces for private buyers or supplying interior designers with complete themes for bars and high street businesses.
We are also delighted to source raw materials for the ever-popular upcycling scene and enjoy working with local theatres, set designers, film companies supplying period props.
At Mr Jolly’s whatever you are looking for; mysterious or obscure, there’s a darn good chance you’ll find it.
We are dedicated to the preservation of period pieces, no matter what age, shape, size or purpose. If it has a story, it has charm and character; regardless of its value, it deserves a home.
Creating a brand-new item by repurposing used objects is tremendously satisfying; simply by combining today's technologies and your imagination, there is no limit to your creativity. Browse our upcycling section and be inspired by our exciting selection of raw materials. However, if you can’t find what you are looking for, get in touch, we love a challenge and guarantee to satisfy your creative requirements.
The great names of interior design have always been inspired by the timeless ingenuity and the craftsmanship of the past. Having a keen eye is key to spotting the elegance and beauty hidden in the humblest of vintage day-to-day objects. Mr Jolly stocks a huge range of interesting period items and is delighted to source complete collections based on your desired themes. We also specialise in large industrial statement pieces. Browse our online store or feel free to contact us to discuss your exact requirements.
Set design is also an area that we know well and we are very proud to have worked with theatre companies in and around the Midlands. Mr Jolly's is well known for its wide-ranging and diverse spectrum of interest; therefore, we are confident that we can supply virtually anything! From period everyday items to quirky, hard to find obscurities. Items are available for sale or hire. Please contact us if you can’t find what you require, have a specific request or need help with a particular project.
An area that is extremely important to us is education and the need to pass on to our future generations an understanding of the past. Especially early technology, most of which we now take for granted. We are always delighted to work with schools and community groups, offering children and young adults of all age groups an exciting opportunity to experience forgotten everyday items that once were the building blocks of today’s society. Please get in touch to discover this year’s exciting programme of events and workshops.
The role of collectors of antiquity cannot be overlooked. Without those devoted men and women bent on gathering, conserving and protecting their vintage hoards, masses of priceless information and irreplaceable tangible links to the past would be lost forever. Whether you fill modest drawers in your living room or vast museums with your precious objet d’art, we always have time for a chat... buying or selling, please feel free to get in touch and talk collectables.
