A big ‘Thank You’ to all those visitors and buyers who attended the recent Olympia Arts and Antiques Fair, London. Despite the current Global difficulties, and train strikes - it came as a huge relief to discover that people were still, very willing to invest in antiques. Personally, I found that sales actually became stronger as the week progressed. We are now deep into Summer, and my next Fair will not be until the Autumn. Even so, work continues apace, on the internet, in the shop, and on the road; so please keep an eye on my website for fresh stock arriving regularly. Please remember, I am very thick skinned, so do not be afraid to make a reasonable offer for anything that may take your eye !
