It is stunning, but all the details your praysed is in Al-hamra palace that been built in 1273 and it was not gothic it was arabic architecture it is a shame to prays something stolen and i advise you to read 'stealing from the saracen' book
Loved this video. Does anyone know if they still there and please let me know exactly where it is. In 1969 i was in Wales and we bought a tapestry anorak which was lovely. I am from South Africa
You used to get your dog groomed at Glenda Johnson’s in the 1990s I remember you said you had two professional washing machines, I was staggered you could get a Welsh Quilt into a washing machine. Also about the quilters, many travelled to peoples homes and stayed for a few weeks at a time to quilt new quilts for the family, this from Mrs Nansi Evans of the Old Rectory, long gone alas.
Classic. A gem. 25 years old but still informative and fun. Great to see so many different places and types of antiques enthusiasts with so many different skills. A quality forerunner of many inferior antiques series that followed in its wake.
Thank you for this video. The hand work is exquisite. I find that today’s quilts that are quilted by a computerized machine look rather like cheap mattress pads. A friend of mine who recently passed away was teaching me how to do piece-quilting. She was extremely talented and knowledgeable about the history of quilting and the fabrics used in the past, etc. She had a long-arm quilting machine that was NOT computerized and her quilting was lovely. She hand guided the machine for the entire quilt and planned her design for each individual quilt. They were superb and did not look like mattress pads. I do miss her dearly. Her name was Dee Brandvig! She lived and I live in a small community in the White Mountains of Arizona at 7,000 ft elevation.
Verry amazing how the stile and collor of the frontdoor comes back in the cupboards , as if done on purpose . The house gives me a real immage of togetherness , of ballance and beauty . Morris and Webb built a " gesamtkunstwerk " even before the German term was invented !
Very nice. England is beautiful and we have brought many things home to the US when my father was still here. If you are in the US take a look at the US based ebay store of: Merseyglo Cheers : )
Although i love this programme at the end of this series i would have loved to see what they brought for the house and how they look ed in the house that was disappoing
I have visited Gavin in his shop on Portobello Rd. We had a great chat about gilded Empire French clocks. He is knowledgeable and very forthcoming with his expertise. Enjoyed the video very much.
It was a very educational experience for me. I love antiques from the Georgian and Regency period in particular. I have a couple of samplers from the Regency and William IV periods. I never realised that they were teaching aides as such I just thought it was just something to pass the time and show the owner's talent. Thank you very much. I have thought about trying to get them cleaned but then again it may be a sacrilege to interfere in anyway. They are very brown and l can see the colours underneath the murk but should l have them cleaned? I honestly don't know.
Beautiful presentation, very extravagant. I wish you all lasting happiness, success and progress in your work. Health and Safety with sincere thanks and respect.💕💜💕

I wish we could have heard about the one that has the trick drawers that hide the cards inside. That's really cool. I've never seen anything like that before.
My thanks, appreciation and respect to you. I wish you permanent happiness, success and progress in your wonderful work. Health and safety to you all, with my sincere thanks and respect. Greetings.
