For over ten years I had a shop in Camden Passage in Central London. For the last ten years I have traded by appointment from my studio and gallery in the grounds of my home in North Warwickshire. I also currently exhibit at the UKs foremost International Fine Arts and Antiques Fair, Olympia. WHO BUYS FROM ME ? My customer base is highly diverse and I operate at all levels of the quality end of the market. It includes discerning individuals sometimes with limited knowledge of art and antiques, who wish to make a "one off purchase" with complete reassurance, perhaps for investment or to mark a special occasion such as a birthday, anniversary or retirement. Naturally it also includes Serious Collectors at all levels (novice to expert), International Dealers, Interior Designers/Decorators, Museums, and increasingly, Corporate and Investment Business. Whatever your requirements, whether it is a single item, or building an entire collection,I am happy to work with you to achieve your specific aims. Because I handle all aspects of each transaction myself, you can be assured of prompt, efficient, "stress free" service and of course, the very best professional advice and expertise. If you are looking for a particular item which is not on the following pages, it is always worth contacting me. I may have it in stock, if not I may be able to locate it via my extensive network of contacts. TERMS OF BUSINESS AND REFUND POLICY I welcome all potential buyer enquiries. I am happy to provide additional high resolution images and detailed information where there is genuine and serious interest. The reservations of customers who would like to to purchase special and expensive items via the internet are perfectly understandable. It is my experience that buying from electronic images can work very well once trust is established. It is especially suited for those with hectic schedules or located outside the UK. I am obsessional about my professional reputation - which is one of the reasons why I am happy to personally guarantee the authenticity and condition of each piece when sold "sight unseen". Prospective buyers must remember that manufacturing flaws are commonplace even in the highest quality original Pre-war and antique Art Glass, especially with the moulded glass of Rene Lalique and the irridescent glass of Loetz. Moderate shelf wear commeasurate with age and use is also acceptable and can even be a good indicator of age and authenticity. All of my items are available for personal inspection by prior appointment. As much as I would like to, I cannot offer sale or return services without prior agreement. I cannot offer refunds for "buyer remorse" alone. Where the grounds for refund are agreed, goods must be returned at purchasers expense in the same way that they were shipped originally. They must be in original condition and returned within 7 days. A BRIGHT MARINE BLUE VASE "MOISSAC" BY RENE LALIQUE C1930 ![]() CONTACT DETAILSJan Afford,Afford Decorative Arts.
