[QUOTE="Francisco G Kempton, post: 4295951, member: 22714"]Of course I understand now, yep. I think that was the right under my nose :) I would love to learn more about furniture. I have studied asian art but as I attend auctions just for that Chinese Qianlong teapot, I find I am as interested if not more interested in the furniture or at least sometimes, sometimes the security that comes with the porcelain market is reassuring, with furniture you have storage and space issues, it .ight be a beautiful georgian sideboard or wardrobe but where do you store it for the next decade while you wait for the market to get bullish again ( I built a store out of tarp in the backgarden just to get some space from all the furniture, it can drive me mad) I will bring it back in again of course but it is so i can breath and re-design my livign space. The attic has chairs and all the things your not meant to put there ( but our climatge is so mild it shoudl be okay for a little while. In comparison to porcelain, furniture is more substantial and can be quite beautiful. Also you need some rich mahogany to display all that chinese blue and white. I think furniture will have it's day again and it would be damn smart to learn what everything is and have a small collection to leave the grandchildren. So that is the life of a furniture junky, breaking all the rules, but really is meant to be only focused on asian art. Just cannot help himself.[/QUOTE]
