I have been in the antiques business since 1962, starting in the family business in Staffordshire.
In the early 1970’s I moved to Hertfordshire where I opened my own business and created a limited company.
Today most of my business is carried out via the internet. Any successful antiques business, and particularly mine, remains a way of life and a hobby, it continues to give me enormous enjoyment and satisfaction.
I hope this is reflected by my commitment to a very high quality of service which I have always given over the years. I prefer to deliver sold items in person where possible to ensure complete customer satisfaction.
I have reluctantly decided that after 60 years spent in this marvellous business it is, figuratively speaking, time to hang up my cheque book. I have therefore made considerable reductions to the prices of my stock. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if any items are of interest. Still able to deliver to most areas, so if I can be of any help please do not hesitate to contact me.
Excellent quality, Victorian period, walnut music or reading stand. The very attractive lyre shaped music rest can be adjusted to any angle or height as required. This is connected by its original brass pole to a turned fluted column standing on a carved tripod base. This stand is in fine strong, original condition with its old original colour and polished surface. Sizes are given overall. Very happy to give any more detailed measurements on request.
