Product Description
We are all familiar with the idea of collecting antiques for the home, but there are also a huge variety of antiques available for your garden. A well-positioned statue, sundial, bench, or bird bath can transform an outdoor living space, and this practical book concentrates on a wide assortment of factory-made items from the 19th century onwards. Here are the most important makers, along with identifications of their marks and guidance on the key points to look for or avoid.
About The Author
Jackie Rees was previously head of the Garden Statuary department at Sotheby's and is now retired. Rupert van der Werff is the head of the Garden Statuary department at Sotheby's.
Reader Reviews
Miller's Garden Antiques is an interesting read and also a good picture book for those interested in creating a "look" around horticulture or just around the poolside or patio. It may be difficult for one to actually garner the prices quoted for each piece in the book (especially if one doesn't live in a market that caters to these types of antique garden pieces). I'd like to say that there are better garden antique books available; yet, in reality, there is something to be derived from all of this type of book. Not a lot of hard information but an interesting picture book.
