Antiques at Home
Cherchez’s Book of Collecting and Decorating with Antiques
In this very personal book, Barbara, an
enthusiastic collector, gives practical advice
about collecting and living with antique
objects. As she says, all of these treasures
from the past are what “give a room its
personality and style and a house its soul.”
This is a wonderful look at the world of
collecting including ceramics, silver, glass,
wood, and textiles plus tips for what to look
for when buying antiques, how to care for these
objects and ideas on how to decorate with them.
There is an international source guide that
reveals Barbara’s favorite antique shops, fairs,
markets, unusual museums and historic homes. For
everyone who has already discovered the warmth
that antiques bring to our homes, as well as for
newcomers to collecting, this book will be a
treasured guide.
