Howzat? Oak cricket table knocks £950
01 September 2004Originality and patina are key factors in the price of oak furniture.

31 October 2001WHILE it was worrying that Phillips’ main Midlands saleroom could find only 100 furniture lots worthy of their main autumn sale, and that only five of those took more than £3000, such is the drought of quality goods in the provinces at the moment that the trade were determined to make the best of any opportunity.
