And so we have another appearance of this recent find. This time I want to show you how this beautiful gothic style gold and garnet cross pendant looks on a chain. A beautiful French creation, with the back of the bale marked with 10ct.

Not online yet, drop me a DM if you are interested before I list it. Pendant only, chain - model’s own.

Thank you 🖤❤️

Discover with me inside the old forgotten art of decent handwriting. Long before computers did this for us we had to learn the skill of holding the fountain pen 🖋️ 🪶 before even attempting to re-learn the alphabet.

So here we are, a vintage book of lessons in handwriting. This is exactly how I was taught to write at school in Canada. All my work had to be submitted in this font and in joined up calligraphy writing.
So you would think I have beautiful handwriting today….. wrong !
When I returned to school in UK I was told off for writing this way and that I had to print my words neatly. Which is ironic as this book is British.

So now my handwriting is all over the place 😂

🔸 Selling antiques is one thing. Building an antique brand is another 🔸

I've met countless antique and vintage dealers with incredible stock, years of knowledge, and a genuine passion for what they do.

Yet many are still struggling to stand out online.
Why?
Because customers don't just buy antiques anymore.
They buy stories, expertise, trust. They buy brands.

The truth is, two dealers can sell similar products, but the one with a clear identity, strong positioning, engaging content, and a memorable customer experience will almost always have the advantage.

Over the last few years, I've combined my experience in antiques, sourcing, product development, fashion, and brand building to create a consultancy service specifically for antique and vintage businesses.

Whether you’re launching a new antique venture or keen to refine your brand identity, I can help you.
