This issue of
Antiques to Vintage is packed with interesting, in-depth, quirky and informative features on anything and everything to do with antiques, collectables, retro and vintage.
In this issue
We admire the rogue brilliance of William Billingsley, explore a merchant’s house in Hobart and look at the brilliant comeback of the brooch. There’s a feature on vintage board games, we meet a dedicated Star Wars collector (he’s nine years old), take a look at collecting Mashman pottery and delve into the Swarovski crystal market. We’ve got collectable books, Victorian glass novelties, the toys of William Britain, the love, lust and inside stories of Cleopatra and we showcase the $40m Fabergé Winter egg (it could be yours!). There’s a story on the amazing work of penwork ladies and we serve up the history of the tea caddy.
Mid Century Modern
We savour some perfect mid-century Christmas gifts (Slinky, anyone?), the wonder of Weil jewellery, the insect-like lighting of Serge Mouille, coffee percolators (they were all the rage) and Hille Furniture’s amazing Sea Urchin chair. Plus we look at the history of women’s swimwear, showcase a Space Age designer, profile Persol sunnies, look at the glamour of the glove and investigate the Louis Vuitton Alma bag.
