Triang Spot-On

Triang Spot On furniture was produced in 1960.  The style of this furniture being the late 1950’s The furniture made from moulded plastic and metal.  It was sold in individual boxes, with the ‘Triang’ and ‘Spot On’ Logos, on a pink and cream box.  The Range also included ‘Dollies Home’ introduced in 1962, which consisted mainly of room sets.  The boxes they were sold in were printed to represent the room, kitchen, bedroom etc. The ‘Triang’, ‘Spot On’ and ‘Dollies Home’ range continued until 1964.

Jenny’s Home

As fashion and style move on so did Triang and in 1964, they launched a new range of furniture in collaboration with ‘Homes and Gardens’ magazine.  This co-insided with the introduction of the ‘Jenny’s Home ‘ Room Boxes, many of them came ready furnished and could be joined together.  Much of the furniture of the ‘Triang’ ‘ Spot On Range’, either changed in style or bright modern colours.  Being made now completely of plastic, with the removal of the metal fittings.  The packaging also changed with a move away from pink to blue, yellow, red and orange. With a smart new logo in a red and pink heart, with Jenny’s Home in the middle, and the words ‘the home that g-r-o-w-s around it. Individual items and small room sets, now on  blister pack cards and room sets in plastic covered square flat boxes.

‘G’ GARDEN SET

The box is a bit battered, and is becoming thin along the creases, but I suppose it comes to most of us with age.

The ‘G.’ Garden Set consists of a table and umbrellas [1028], hammock seat [1027], sun lounger [1118], and 2 folding stools [1030].

 

HAMMOCK SEAT 1027

The frame of the Hammock is metal, the seat and cover are made from moulded coloured plastic.

 

GARDEN TABLE 1028

As you can see the metal pole on this Garden Table is at a rather jaunty angle.

The table has a weight in the base to stop it from falling over.

 

FOLDING STOOLS 1030

The folding stools are tiny, it is a wonder they haven’t been lost.

 

SUN LOUNGE 1118

These sun loungers came in various colours,  red, blue, green, yellow and cream.  There a few other pale colours, but I think this has happened when the colour has faded.

 

GARDEN TOYS

The garden is not just for relaxing in, but also play.  There are various garden toys, a slide, sea-saw and swing.

This rather flimsey looking sea-saw is quite stirdy.  The base is blue painted metal, the sea-saw is red plastic, but is very well made.

 

GARDEN ACCESSORIES

These include a workbench, garden tools, flowerpots, waterbutt, wheelbarrow, garden roller, lawnmower, watering can and a trug for collecting your home-grown vegetables.
