Beautiful Antique Plaque "The Rixon House Shield", Authentic English Antique Pieces, 1928, 20th Century on solid oak background!!
This substantial commemorative plaque is constructed as a shield-form trophy mounted on a solid oak backboard, centered by a cast and gilt metal escutcheon. The shield is surmounted by a heraldic crest featuring a knight’s helmet, mantling, and armorial bearings, all rendered in high relief with blackened and gilt detailing. Beneath the crest is a scroll bearing a Latin motto, reinforcing the academic and heraldic character of the piece.
The main shield is fitted with a series of horizontal brass nameplates, originally intended to record annual winners or honorees. The engraved title reads “The Rixon House Shield 1928,” with later engraved dates including 1957 and 1959, indicating continued use over several decades. The surface shows an attractive aged patina consistent with long-term institutional display.
Historic Context
House shields such as this were commonly commissioned by British schools, universities, military academies, and athletic or debating societies during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. “House” competitions—inter-house sports, academics, or leadership contests—were a central feature of British educational culture, and trophies like this served as permanent records of achievement and tradition.
The quality of casting, heraldic styling, and formal inscription strongly suggest an origin connected to a British public school or collegiate institution. The continued engraving into the mid-20th century reflects the enduring ceremonial importance of such awards, which were typically displayed in halls, common rooms, or refectories.

Toughness & Durability that Carhartt is known for.
Size: One Size, Color: Carhartt Brown (Bifold)
This wallet is working out very nicely. It is comfortable and fits many cards without feeling bulky. I would buy again. Of course, it has the typical toughness/durability that Carhartt is known for and it matches my backpack. :)

Top Class Watch
Color: sliver band blue face-G5885G
I really love this watch, its very bright in the night, it was very easy to set the time on it, I also love the weight of this watch, it's definitely of top class quality, thankfully I didn't need the tool to adjust the band because it fit perfectly fine, plus the quartz system is working quite well, hasn't missed a second since I set it. Time keeping is amazing. Overall, I love this watch so much, I'm thinking of buying the black face one as I bought the blue face one.

Tracking Process & Quality of Product
Color: Black Watches for Men/Black Dial-2870
I don't know where to review the tracking process so I will do it here. I just love the fact that they list stop by stop where your order is. I ordered this for my son for his graduation present and was very excited to give it to him. I was able to see how many stops the driver had before he got to me which allowed me to not only have a better idea of its arrival time, but I was also able to enjoy a buildup of excitement as it got closer and closer.
As for the quality of the product ~ both my son and I are very impressed and more than satisfied with the watch so far. I was very trepidatious as so many items, especially jewelry items, look stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, high quality in the pictures online and are nothing short of utterly disappointing when you get them. This watch renewed my belief that there are honest sellers out there. I will say that we just got the watch today so this is purely about the initial presentation and look of the watch.
So, the packaging was super nice, high-end quality. Each piece (bands, watchface) were separately wrapped in nice, thick plastic to protect from scratching. The boxes (box for watch & slip cover outer box) were great quality (you know, so many companie's packaging falls apart at barely a touch, which makes me wonder about the quality of what's inside). Thorough, grammatically correct (mostly) directions included; also had tools for taking out links along with fairly easy to follow pictured & written directions. We did have to use a separate pin with a head (like tailors use to mark hem points) to push out the pins bcz the one included bent.
One thing I really appreciate is that the company said they are there anytime and to please let them know of any issues. Usually companies do all they can to make it as hard as possible to be contacted.
I couldn't stop looking at the watch! It DEFINITELY looks SO MUCH MORE expensive than it was! And the workings move like a Rolex (smoothly), not jumpy like the workings of normal watches. Even my husband remarked on how "Rolexey" it looked. I ordered the all black watch.
Again, we've only just gotten it, but if the initial presentation is any indicator of its performance, WE'VE GOT A WINNER!!
