Happy New Year to you all
2020 was not a great year for any of us, however, it would have been significantly worse without your support - thank you. 2021 is a new year and a fresh start - with the new vaccine we have every right to be optimistic and I wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. My resolution - tidy these shelves!

Brislington delft Adam and Eve charger c1690 35.6cm wide
One of the best decorated Adam and Eve chargers that I have seen - these vary quite a lot and the naivety of painting and richness of colour on this example makes it really stand out. As you will see it has had a stunning and honest rivet repair visible on the reverse, however, it's completely original and my restorer has gently tidied up any signs of this on the face - as you can see it looks fabulous!
