Should I buy from a dealer or at Auction?
The pros and cons of buying from an antique dealer
Antiques are for life, not just for bank vaults
The antiques trade can seem, at times, to be a weird and wonderful aspect of modern life. After all, dealers and collectors around the country, and for that matter around the globe, invest in objects that typify tradition and taste, and portray fantastically rich and complex social histories. This can often throw up strange things, quirky adjuncts to the recognised and the useful. For these we all visit places like Portobello market, to root out personal ephemera and private passions, and the hunt through the crowds nearly always pays off (even if it's just the pint next to the pub fire at the end of the morning's foraging).

Should I buy an antique or a reproduction?
Shopping for antiques should be fun and enjoyable. They are able to evoke a period in history in the way a reproduction never can.
