an important and integral part of their antiques business.They
have developed a strong direct sales service and use Federal

is to supply the best examples possible of antique British
pottery and to maintain a high level of trust with trade customers
and private collectors. John and Linda work very much on a personal
basis with every customer and it is interesting to note that
over 70% of sales are from past customers. As a commitment to
this policy they are members of the prestigious British Antique
Dealers Association which have a code of practice requiring
a high quality of stock, and a depth of knowledge and integrity
from member dealers. John is Chairman of the Vetting Committee
for Pottery at the Olympia Fine Arts and Antique Fairs and is
a member of the vetting team at the NY Ceramics,BADA and NEC
Fairs. With the ever increasing volume of reproduction Staffordshire
pottery on the market it should be noted that every item sold
is guaranteed for its authenticity and any restorations are
specified. A Search and Find service is also provided where
every endeavour is made to find that specific item.
