Mothers Day

I love my mum. She has been a great support in my adventures throughout life so I dedicate this blog to all lovely, supportive and beautiful mothers out there. At Alfies we have a wide selection of items for funky mums. Let mum have a night out, with our without dad, in this 1950s Kelly green bubble bottom cocktail dress from The Girl Can’t help It



The glamorous mum would love this stylish Victorian set containing a 15ct gold brooch and a pair of earrings garnished with seed pearls and garnet,



presented in their original fitted box, c.1860 from Marie Antiques.

For the more ethnic conscious mum, Victor Caplin offers matching bracelet and earrings



containing Mediterranean precious red coral, or mum may like to be gifted with impressive African textiles from Duncan Clarke such as this Yoruba women's wrapper cloth, early 20th century, woven from hand-spun indigo-dyed thread and magenta trans-Saharan silk with cotton.



For mums who like to sew and make clothes themselves, June Victor offers textiles, lace and these gorgeous Victorian cape fasteners, which mum can utilize to make a trendy cape.



Mums who want to have a cosy time, can enjoy this cute 19th Century Terracotta Victorian Ridgway & Abingdon cup & saucer and the Samuel Alcock jug to make a brew to soothe the stresses of daily life from W & L Antiques



Or if mum really feels she wants to splash out on a fabulous dinner, she can serve her sumptuous cooking with this blue and white 'Aster' patterned Minton Dinner Service
