A dazzling collection of carnival-themed props and decorations is set to go under the hammer at Unique Auctions’ Antiques, Collectors & Toys Auction on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th May.
Among the standout items are seven large Chinese Dragon Heads, once mounted on tall masts that lined and lit a walkway in spectacular fashion. Originally illuminated with tube lighting, these striking pieces remain visually impressive — and must be seen in person to be fully appreciated.
Also in the collection are several large-scale carnival and fairground props, possibly once part of themed rides or displays, including:
-
A child in a bumblebee costume
-
Children at play figures
-
A lady figure
-
A large Chinese lantern model
Just in time for those planning ahead for festive events, there’s even a life-size Santa sleigh and reindeer — perfect for display or winter wonderland decor.
Whether you’re a collector, event decorator, or simply love the theatrical flair of fairground nostalgia, this unique offering promises a real visual treat.
