john whats your opinion on repro furnature and antiques in general? have to ask because i believe you dabble in a little.

my honest opinion is i dont like it,,,the reason i like antiques is because of the craftmenship that has gone into a peice...

maybe thats a insight into the quality of repro furnature i have come across,,,,,i really dont like vineer


by the way john did they collect the religious painting???need to look for a restorer near my area...

i am taking a stall in a newly opened antiques market before christmas that is open all week , mon-sun, may have to go part-time in my day to day job or take a chance and do the antiques full time.......

Don't quit the day job.

Hi
Furniture has been reproduced from the beginning of time.

a paneled room was taken down and coffers made out of it.

Upright Pianos where made in to display cabinets

Large sideboards made into smaller items.

Chippendale copied the Chinese

I like some re pro like I like some antiques.

Mahogany re pro furniture made in Indonesia in the 1980s by firms like Gostin of Liverpool was as good if not better than what Chippendale made.

Some of the best antiques is made with veneer wood.

I hate the East End of London look when it comes to re pro furniture.
I hate the yew wood look as well
and the spray lacquer Italian look.

PAINTING WAS NOT COLLECTED

sorry about the collection john ...i paid on wednesday for the painting to be collected on thursday between 9 and 5 ,,they have already taken the money out of my account,,,i will have to wait until monday before phoning them...sorry for any inconvienience...

john i tried tracking it with parcel force and it says 'refused acceptance',,,i dont understand,,,i will have to phone them on monday and find out exactly the problem,,,

dont miss-understand me ,,,i am just reading what it says on the website,,,........

refused

Hi

Normally when a collection is made and the van driver can not collect, he leaves a card.

No card was left on Thursday... I was in all day
When I did go out for lunch I left a note on the door saying call at the china shop ( which I also own ) just across the road.

I waited in Friday and also no collection.

What firm are you using.
We have a postal strike on in England

Do they know they are collecting from a business.
When the painting arrived they did leave it at the wrong shop.
