We often get asked, "So what should I buy as
a good long term investment?" If you are looking for more than
"aesthetic pleasure", perhaps you're seeking a longer
term investment in a well made piece of furniture that you can use,
what do you choose? Buy the best quality, condition and provenance
you can afford whatever the period. Investing in craftsmanship,
can provide a pleasant financial bonus in addition to the pleasure
gained from being long term caretakers of these fine pieces of work.
Investing
for tomorrow.....? We are gathering together a few stylish, highly
affordable more contemporary examples of fabulous retro on this
page that we love and are happy to live with - we believe they are
tomorrows heirlooms - maybe not to everyone's taste, but superb
design, quality and provenance nevertheless.... |
