The Great Antiques Treasure Hunt: Test Your Knowledge of Antiques and Collectibles and Learn While You Search (A Marshall Edition)

by Anna Selby (Author), PaulAtterbury (Author)

Synopsis

For the antiques lover, there can be few greater pleasures than delving into the dark corners and back rooms of junk shops, searching for treasures that no one else has recognized. Who can resist the excitement of spotting a treasure selling for a fraction of its real value, putting a maker's name to an obscure object or spotting an expensive fake? This book is piled high with tables and chairs, china and glass, jewellery and silver, clocks and watches - and much more. Each of the book's 12 intricate full-colour collages covers a major category in collecting. A "decoder" tells readers about each item - what it is, where it came from, when it was made and what it's worth. Armed with this knowledge - and some of your own - you can tease out the solutions to the experts' riddles.
