Next year will be my 30th year in the antiques trade, for a 41 year old thats a lot of years. As a child of 11 in the late 70s, I was lucky to get an after school job at the local antique shop in the May school holidays , from my first day I wanted to be a dealer, not just a restorer. My Boss & one of the mentors in my journey 'Mr John Henry Walter Cockburn' taught me my trade as a french polisher, he was an excellent old school tradesman.
Along with my schooling, I was soon working 24 hours a week, by then I knew exactly what my future would hold. I love my trade and my business, I get to meet the most interesting people from all walks of life, who all have one thing in common, an interest for beautiful furniture and decorative items.
Take a look at my site, the archive will be gradually upgraded with the most rare and interesting pieces I have carried over the last two decades of business in Malvern, I have 100s of items in stock that will be added to this site regularly.
