We are full of the joys of spring as we look forward to a year ahead of brilliant events and plenty of antiques-buying opportunities!
Our UK Fairs Special rounds up the major events to have in your diary for this year and beyond so you can plan your trips. And while we’re talking trips, you’ll want to bookmark six of the best historic shops around the country, from Laings in Glasgow to The Egyptian House in Penzance – each is a great place to look for Mother’s Day gifts.
Our collecting guides, meanwhile, cover a range of fascinating and eclectic areas: rugs, 17th-century oak furniture, John Ogilby’s maps, typewriters and Sunderland lustre. Celia Rufey reveals the history behind Spitalfields silk, plus we travel to Maastricht in the Netherlands to experience the many gems the city has to offer.
And, as ever, our houses are all delightful in their individual ways – read how these homeowners have restored and decorated a Wiltshire farmworker’s dwelling, a former village reading rooms in Suffolk and a classic Cotswolds cottage.
