November is now gone and despite deciding not to take part in this years November Fine Art and Antiques Fair at Olympia, business has been steady. We have been able to spend more time marketing the business and sourcing new stock.
Finding good pieces of stock is proving more and more difficult, however it is the better pieces of objects, lighting and furniture that for us seem to be selling the best. Clients and decorators are maybe buying slightly less but are definitely deciding to choose the top end pieces. Though initially more expensive to invest in, these items are more likely at least, to hold their value or at best to increase in value.
The festive season can be a mixed one for dealers. There are so many sales offered in the big retail outlets, it is naturally tempting to buy the bargains. However for those seeking the individual presents buying from dealers is often the most interesting, exciting and best place to shop.
We have just added a good selection of vases which make beautiful presents. If you are based in London or just outside we will get your purchases delivered on time for Christmas. Do not forget to look at our paintings website as well www.galeriedekerangal.com
We wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you at the next Battersea Decorative Fair starting on the 24th January 2012
