I'm never sure what to write in these intro threads so I will just say I'm from Yorkshire and hi to everyone
Welcome, uksweetheart! How about sharing your areas of interest? Do you have a special love in the antiques world or are you a generalist? What got you interested in old stuff? What were you looking for when you found us? (Just to get you started. )
Welcome uksweetheart, as Bakersgma said we would love to hear what your areas of interest are regarding antiques!
Since we seem to have an "old home week" going on up there, let me add that a set of my 4th great grandparents were from Yorkshire too! Married in Birstall St Peters in 1816, lived in Drighlington, then emigrated (with all 7 children) to New York in 1841.
I guess you could say I'm a generalist even though I love antiques I have no expert knowledge, I have always had a liking for "old stuff" from being young, it fascinates me wondering what it's gone through over the years and what stories it can tell. The reason I found this forum was because of some pottery I knew was quite old but wanted it IDing, I think I might have something else to ask about that I was given about 40 yrs ago and have never known what it is but I love it
