environment to display both traditional and decorative antiques. We will be
pleased to help you select an area which will best display your stock.
Ground Floor Showroom

have maintained standards in quality antiques and collectibles, and have
enforced a 1959 dateline.
Enquiries will be welcomed from dealers in the following areas:
Furniture; English, Continental and Oriental Pottery and Porcelain; Glass;
Silver; Metalware; Textiles; Oils, Watercolours, Prints; Books; Rugs and
Carpets; Lighting; Clocks, Watches, Scientific instruments; Jewellery; Objets
D'art.
First Floor
The market in decorative antiques is growing with
expanding interest in interiors and today's furnishing ideas incorporate a
wide variety of items. There is a new generation of antique buyers interested
in the best of 20th century art and design, and our contemporary jewellery
centre offers a stylish complement to the quality antique jewellery displayed
on the Ground Floor.
Modern reproduction items will not be accepted. The date-lined section will
be clearly marked and we ask that all items are clearly dated on the ticket
and marked with an accurate description.
