The first official book from the beloved hit BBC series Bargain Hunt, providing tips, advice and anecdotes from the show' s experts, to help you spot those diamonds in the rough. Bargain Hunt is a British institution, entertaining audiences for over 20 years, and encouraging us to look for diamonds in the rough at antique fairs and shops across the country. A Bargain Hunt is more than just a quest for cash, though - from traveller' s trunks and tea caddies to walking canes, coins and quirky costumes, each of the items chosen has their own story to tell, forming a small part of our collective social history. The Bargain Hunt Spotter' s Guide to Antiques is packed with essential information from the Bargain Hunt experts on identifying quality across a range of antiques. From makers' marks and tell-tale historical styles to details in foils and finials, this will be your one-stop guide to making good choices on your own bargain hunt - while also delving into the fascinating stories behind many of our favourite antiques. With a foreword from Eric Knowles and tips, advice, and stories throughout from each of the show' s experts (including ' league tables' of best and worst finds), this is the essential companion to all your future Bargain Hunts!
