Suzy's Attic

Rain ! Well I thought I'd start with the word on every ones lips and lots of it . I hope everyone has avoided it as best they can. Future fashion accessories will be what can you wear with your wellies and matching brolly !
Anyway , back to The Attic ....

This is a beautiful cup and saucer dated to around 1820 , painted in the Church Gresley Pattern on French porcelain. Very rare indeed ...



And dated from slightly earlier is this beautiful piece of Paris Porcelain , part of a set .


And from the turn of the twentieth century is this unusual bird in a gilded cage .


Thank you for the lovely feedback re my Blasts From The Past ....here is  another . Taken  in New York , I hope you like !


I agree I'm not likely to get an Oscar as yet !! but this is another slightly longer video , taken at the beautiful Beauvale Priory during a medieval weekend

And continuing with the theme of A Blast From The Past


Taken on an equally glorious day in India

Suzy's Attic

Welcome to the first of a new blog or rather a blog a shop and some pictures old and new !! ...so really combining everything .
For as long as I can remember I have been an avid antiques collector and although the idea was to buy and sell ....I seldom did .....
But , after selling some items recently and helping a friend re design the interior of their property and source some furniture .....I thought this is fun and something I really enjoy doing .

So welcome to Suzy's Attic . Should you like an item or wish me to source something for you  just let me know.




Have so far taken 2 orders for this beautiful  Suzy Chair ...available in a variety of colours and as you can see , looks beautiful .


This is an absolutely beautiful Victorian mahogany writing desk ....If you are going to write your memoirs or your love letters , then write at something as stunning as this

Heres a new one .....catching I hope not the last of the summer sunshine ....



And for the Blast from the Past .......taken in Malmo
....
I hope you will Suzy's attic. I will update as regularly as I can , with new items , new design stories and lots of pictures .....enjoy x
