"Blue and White" -  24th July

24/7/2017

0 Comments

 
Our theme for July was 'blue and white' and we had  a very nice display ranging from Op Shop items  to Spode and Wedgewood, all of which had some meaning to the Collector.   There were other items as well, including a miniature porcelain sewing machine, a set of Bakelite canisters and Teddy Bears.

Our theme for August  is Jewellery.

    About the Collectors' group


    ​Do you enjoy 'Antiques Roadshow' and 'Bargain Hunt' on TV?  Have you a collection or the beginnings of one?  ‘Collectors’ is for people who enjoy collecting and seeing the collections of others.   Sessions take the form of ‘show and tell’, with participants bringing along an item or a collection to share with others in the group.  Items shown last year ranged from the quirky to the beautiful.  They may be inherited, be valuable antiques or items purchased from the Op Shop but which you enjoy.  It is hoped to have a guest speaker for one session to help us develop skills in identifying and valuing our purchases.  Please bring along to the first session one or two of your favourite items and be prepared to ‘show and tell’.
