ANTIQUES & BABIES

Last week end saw the arrival of our annual baby geese, the proud father and the two mothers who have been sitting together for the last weeks have six little goslings.




The following morning they were taken to the top pond where they were confronted by the other geese, not a happy meeting and there was much hissing and attacking and flapping pf wings........




Back in the shop I have been shopping and these are some of the things that will shortly be arriving........

A beautiful little  Louis XV French Commode, great veneer and marble Good bronze handles and only 38.5" wide.























This desk,  though late 19th century is wonderfully decorative black lacquer with Chinese figures

 











and because I can't resist dog pictures this has a lot of charm...................
