We were very excited when Antiques@TheHolt grew so much bigger in March this year! Expanding into a fourth room at The Holt gave us space for an additional seven double-sized pitches. This enabled us to invite several new dealers to stand with us at The Holt, including some who'd been waiting patiently on the waiting list for years! This page includes brief descriptions of typical items from just some of the dealers who attended. Click on the thumbnails to view enlargements.

If you are a dealer, and would like to know more about booking a table for future events, please Contact us, and we will send you the appropriate information.

Margaret Barker - Silverwares, Jewellery & Ladies' Accessories
Margaret joined us for a toe-in-the-water Sunday in November 2015, and enjoyed herself enough to come back again a year later ... and virtually sold out on the opening day! She has impeccable taste, and it shows in the top-quality stock she sells and the beautiful way it's all arranged. The image on the right featured in the Antiques Trade Gazette - the Chanel scarf is not for sale!

Tony & Donna Allen - General Antiques, Ceramics & Collectables
Tony Allen and his daughter Donna (and it's good to see the younger generation with an interest in antiques dealing!) stand every Friday at the Cirencester Antiques Market, as well as being regulars at Malvern and Ryton-on-Dunsmore. They offer a range of traditional antiques and collectables, including silver, ceramics, glasswares, the occasional clock, inkwells, prints and paintings.

Arcadia Antiques - General Antiques, Collectables and Curios
Andrew Long is one of our most determined supporters, and has yet to miss an Antiques@TheHolt. His table veritably groans with the weight of the interesting selection of antiques and curios he always amasses (plus his very individual shelving system). Expect a few clocks, a bit of Charlotte Rhead, musical instruments, glass, ceramics and some select items of militaria.

Marilyn Arrigoni - Fine ceramics, Moorcroft, Troika & Silverwares
Marilyn made her debut at The Holt a year ago. She specialises in fine 20th century ceramics, and her stock includes some fine examples of works by Moorcroft and Troika. Her Moorcroft selection is imposing, and includes pieces from the early years as well as more contemporary examples. She also displayed examples of glass, silver and jewellery.

Brook Collectables - Val Sparks
Val Sparks does us proud every time she comes to The Holt, with an impressive array of very tasteful antiques, woodenwares and curios. She also brings some select items of furniture, glasswares and ceramics. Her display beams with beautifully patinated wood, polished brass, the glint of glass, and more often than not, some flowers to highlight the wooden boxes and treen.

Val can be contacted through this website

Michael Collier - Vintage Topographical & Themed Postcards
Mike has one of the most impressive collections of regional topographic postcards we've ever seen. He is only able to bring a small percentage of his stock to The Holt - perhaps 20,000 cards in total - with an emphasis on local towns and villages in Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and the Cotswolds. He tempts us each fair with his Titanic memorabilia, but we can't afford the insurance!

Mike can be contacted through this website

Martin Cox - Items of Furniture, Boxes and Collectables
Martin put on a splendid display last time at The Holt, taking on a double pitch and filling it with tasteful furniture, ceramics and intriguing smaller pieces of the cabinet-makers art, including writing slopes, vanity boxes, tea caddies and treen. One of the stars was a snuff box in the form of a miniature shoe, beautifully created in hand-carved wood. Expect more treasures in March.

Sheena Davies - Woodenwares, Boxes and Objets de Vertu
We were delighted when Sheena first stood at the Holt, in March last year. She had to miss us in November, but returns this spring with another wonderful selection of boxes, cabinets, writing slopes, vanity boxes and sewing sets, all beautifully encased in mahogany, rosewood, walnut, satinwood and coromandel. In amongst will be dotted a tasteful selection of collectables.

Mark Ditchburn - Art Deco and Victorian Bronzes, Figures & Ceramics
Anyone who has a passion for the elegance and beauty of the classic Art Deco bronze will instantly appreciate the quality Mark's stock. His stand includes a vast array of genuine period pieces - with flappers, dancers and beautiful nudes supplemented by bronzes of dogs and other animals, as well as choice ceramics from the likes of Wallendorf, Katzhutte, Goldscheider and Hutschenreuther.

Andrew Fleming - Clockmaker, Restorer & Repairer
Based in the Cotswolds just west of Oxford, Andrew is one of the area's foremost repairers and restorers of antique clocks and timepieces. A fellow of the Fellow of the British Horological Institute, Andrew established his workshop some thirty years ago, and now deals in almost everything clockwork, from clocks, toys and music boxes to barometers and barographs.

Peter Forbes - Brass, Door Furniture, Metalwork, Tools & Gentleman's Collectables
Peter Forbes is one of those dealers that everybody knows - not only because he seems to have been around for ever, but because his stock, once seen, is never forgotten. Peter offers genuine antique door furniture, from solid brass knockers, handles and letterboxes, to coathooks, escutcheons and plates. Dotted in among will be a few choice 'Mantiques'.

Ken and Eveline Gillians - Mixed Ceramics, Glass & Jewellery
Ken and Eveline are another of our longest-standing dealers, having featured at the Holt for every one of our fairs. They represent the epitome of the traditional dealer, offering a broad spectrum of genuine antiques and collectables, from early stoneware and ceramics, lead crystal glassware and boxes, to small items of furniture and period jewellery.

Ken and Eveline can be contacted through this website.

Glad Bags - General Antiques, Collectables and Vintage Handbags
Gladys Arnott came back to the Holt for both days in November. She always achieves an eye-catching mix of vintage and traditional antiques, with a generous smattering of top quality 'ladies accessories', ceramics, glass, silverwares, pictures and jewellery. Gladys also stands at the monthly Benson fair, organised by Joy O'Meara.

Jean Harwood - Ceramics, Glass, Antiques & Collectables
Jean has been a regular at The Holt since the beginning, and says she wouldn't miss it "for the World", so we're delighted that she's with us again in March, bringing more of her carefully selected items. Among her favourite stock items are pieces of art glass (especially blue-green Mdina), porcelain, prints, paintings, silver, jewellery, platedwares and art pottery.

Peter & Janet Herbert - Glass, Ceramics, Silver & Jewellery
Allowing for the upheaval of their recent house move, we were honoured that Peter and Janet went out of their way to join us at The Holt, even if only for the Saturday. Their beautiful array of jewellery and silver always adds a sparkle to the room, and is tastefully off-set by some choice examples of English and continental porcelain and glass.

Dittany Morgan - 18th Century English & Chinese Porcelain
Although Dittany’s passion is for early English and Chinese porcelain, from the 18th Century or before, her stock has broadened in recent years to include later examples of top-quality ceramics, particularly teawares, as well as Mauchlineware, crystal glasswares, curios and the occasional Ming dynasty ginger jar, and items of feline interest.

Pete & Tina Morgan - Art Deco in Print
Pete and Tina have been collecting original Art Deco advertising, posters and stylised artwork for over 20 years, and eight years ago turned their passion into a business. Their extensive stock covers a wide range of subjects, including transport, travel, perfume, food & drink, as well as iconic brands of the period. All are guaranteed original and are hand mounted and framed.

Paul & Judy Norman - Furniture, Ceramics, Glasswares and Collectables
Paul and Judy are one of the hardest-working dealers on the circuit, stalling out at two or three fairs almost every week. They return to The Holt with another fine selection of period furniture bedecked with fascinating antiques and collectables. Expect a few writing slopes, some tantali, silverwares, figures, mixed ceramics and some glass.

Mel Osment - Oriental Works of Art and Collectables
We were delighted that Mel could join us once again. His array of mainly Oriental works of art is a constant source of wonder - ranging from intricate carvings in jade and ivory, through delicate porcelain and ceramics, to imposing bronzes, wooden carvings and militaria. Mel also finds space for some Art Deco pieces, as well as a few religious artifacts.

John Piper - Glassware, Metalwares and Collectables
John will be a familiar face to many fairgoers, as he stands at most of the major events in the westcountry, including Malvern, Cirencester and, of course, @TheHolt. Known as "John the Glass" to many of his colleagues, his stock invariably glistens with polished stemware, crystal and imposing examples of the glassblower's art ... alongside equally gleaming pieces of brass and copper.

Recollections - Mixed Antiques & Collectables
Tony and Jill Worthington came back to their usual pitch for November, and offered another characteristically exquisite selection of items. Jill has a penchant for scent bottles and glass, with a special interest in 'Uranium' pieces, while Tony's contribution tends to be focused on ceramics and silverwares, especially Royal Doulton and Poole and Objets de Vertu.

Farhad Shakouri - Fine Jewellery, Silver and Collectables
Farhad has been dealing in antiques and fine jewellery for over 20 years, and offers some remarkably beautiful stock, ranging from rings, necklaces and brooches, to silver and fine porcelain and ceramics. He has a passion and an eye for top-quality gems. He also offers carefully selected period bronzes and collectables.

Stephen Rees - Collectables
With more than 20 years' experience as a dealer in collectable antiques, Stephen's stall is a treasure trove of the kind of fascinating items that visitors can't walk by without a good "ruttle". Penknives, pieces of treen, militaria, vintage watches, medals, carefully selected ceramics, brassware, silver, leathergoods, lighters, pieces of jewellery, and much more.

Michael & Rosemary Wyber – Jewellery, Ceramics, Pictures & Collectables
Michael and Rosemary will be familiar to many Cotswold-based collectors, who will have encountered their attractively-presented stock at fairs across the region, including the Friday market in Cirencester. Rosemary has a keen eye for decorative items, with "ladies' accessories" vying for attention alongside jewellery, glass & ceramics.

Marylyn & Ray Wood – English Ceramics, Glass, Silver and Coins
Marylyn and Ray will be making their debut at The Holt this March, and bringing with them a selection of English porcelain, including early pieces from the mid-18th century, as well as later examples of ceramics, glass and silverwares. Ray also has an eye for treen and an interest in coins and fossils, ensuring a broad mix of antiques and collectables.

Edwin Woodley – Mixed Antiques & Collectables
Edwin's intriguing stock has always been admired whenever he's appeared at The Holt - and was a particular favourite with Charlie Ross back in 2015. Edwin's eclectic mix includes silverware, ceramics, glasswares, painting & prints, examples of Victorian and Edwardian woodenwork, cut glass and bronze & spelter figures.
