HAPPY SHOPPING!

We have previously sold items to a Bargain Hunt team and last night one of our Ruskin vases appeared on the BBC Antiques Master program. This show, in case you haven’t seen it, is a kind of Mastermind for antiques – contestants have to answer questions on both their specialist antiques subject and on a wide variety of other antiques. They are then gradually eliminated to leave one winner, who will go through to the final of the series. It is presented by Sandy Toksvig with expert advice from Eric Knowles.

Last night’s episode featured our blue Ruskin Pottery vase in the final round of the show – a ‘fingers on buzzers’ round where the final two contestants battle it out. The Ruskin question did not relate specifically to our vase; the two contestants were asked in which decade the Ruskin Pottery was founded (the 1890s). Both contestants got it wrong unfortunately, but we knew!

The vase in question is a fairly late piece of Ruskin that is undated but probably dates from the 1920s. It has an impressive bulbous shape, stands 9″ tall and is decorated with a mottled matt and gloss blue glaze.

For full details and more pictures of this Ruskin vase, click here.

Antiques Master is on BBC2 on Monday nights at 8.30pm – last night’s episode can be viewed on iPlayer until the 29th August – click here to see our Ruskin vase on Antiques Master.

On here we’ve reviewed the books we’ve used and include links to all of the full in-depth reviews in one place to make it easier for you to read all about them! You’ll find the link to the Perfect Pieces Books page in the top menu bar on the Perfect Pieces website, labelled as – Books (see below!).

One of the most popular place to buy books from is Amazon. They usually offer a pretty good service, and have a very wide range of Antique and Collectable books on offer from Price Guides, detailed Pottery books to general collector’s books and are certainly worth a look if you’re trying to find a certain book to purchase.

If you know of an interesting book we haven’t yet reviewed or indeed if you’ve written a book you think is related to the world of Antiques & Collectables and would like us to review it then do get in touch!
