John Andrews of Classic Antique Fairs, comments: “We are thrilled to offer such an exceptional and broad spectrum of pieces for the collector and the bargain hunter at the Autumn Fair at the NEC. The perfect excuse for a bit of Christmas shopping, secure in the knowledge that the expertise of the dealers is assured by the trade associations of BADA, LAPADA and CINOA.”
