Fine Welsh art and pottery, quality jewellery and 17th century Welsh oak furniture take centre stage for the January Antiques Fair at the National Botanical Garden of Wales (January 9-10).
Fans of collectibles, curios and classics should make their way to the various Garden venues – including the Lord Foster-designed Great Glasshouse – and all this for a knock-down admission price of just £3.
Organiser Brita Rogers, of Derwen Fairs, said: “The fair has proved to be a recipe for success, increasing in size to over 60 inside stands and many more outside. Demand is high so our Botanic Gardens series of fairs now includes an extra date in April making three fairs a year.”
As well as stalls in the Great Glasshouse, there are plenty of tempting offers to be had in Principality House (the old servants’ quarters), the Garden marquee (for period oak furniture and rare books) and Theatr Botanica.
Brita explained: “The fair will be showcasing Welsh areas of collecting including Welsh pottery, Welsh art and furniture.”
The Garden is open from 10am to 4.30pm with last entry at 3.30pm.
Admission to the Garden for Antiques Weekend is £3. Entry is FREE for Garden members and parking is FREE for all.
