What a difference a few months make to the weather. Our customers are coming in wearing lovely summery clothes instead of being all wrapped up in coats and scarves. They are still looking for that special piece of furniture that has just the look they want and is of the right dimensions.

Of course, online sales are always useful, but it can be tricky organising delivery. We have just sent a large wardrobe to Norfolk, and a lady in Canada loved our Viennese clock, but it was around £400 to deliver it.

By the way, we are revamping the gallery side of the business, which has always been dear to our hearts, there will be more news of that in the future.
