Media Reviews
Offering advice on how to display that new ornament/painting/plate or rug to show off its beauty to best advantage, to mingle successfully with modern furniture and house styles, this lavishly illustrated book is for anyone with a love of antiques. Spanning both the Atlantic and the Channel, it is a culmination of ideas and styles from top designers around the world. Written by Caroline Clifton-Mogg it shows the tricks of the trade, the clever groupings, the subtle placement and the joining of old and new in perfect harmony. Covering every room indoors and out - with stunning garden rooms furnished with stone, terracotta and galvinised metal antiquities - the author succinctly explains the designers' ideas whilst the photographs of Fritz von der Schulenburg gloriously capture the settings in all their sumptuousness. Gently cluttered, contemporarily minimalist, stately or comfortable, whatever your taste in decor or antiques, there is a way to display them to their best advantage, this book being an inspirational starting-point in their successful placement. - Lucy Watson
