Bruton 2017 filled up immediately with a blend of eager returning and new exhibitors and the show promises to be an exciting mix of C18th – C20th decorative antiques for the home and garden, architectural reclamation, humble English Folk Art – early pottery, samplers, walking canes, CMid furniture and accessories, lighting, textiles, grand painted furniture from local country houses, mirrors, dazzling jewels and even desirable vintage designer handbags.
The recent £6million extension to The Haynes International Motor Museum, with its spacious interior and extraordinary raspberry red futuristic facade, just outside Bruton and very hi viz from the adjacent A303, provides the perfect venue for this new firm fixture in the decorative fairs calendar.
On Saturday 14 October, BBC Antiques Roadshow expert and author Mark Hill will add some celebrity sparkle to the fair with his “Mark Hill Selects” tour – using his expert knowledge to inspire visitors with tips on using traditional and decorative antiques in the modern interior for a cool century mash-up! Mark will also be selecting some collectors’ pieces – he has an eye for obscure objects and visitors can look forward to a fun and engrossing event. Mark’s tour will be streamed live on social media from 1 pm.
The organisers have also teamed up with celebrated local restaurant Roth Bar & Grill for a competition to win a culturally enriching lunch with wine for two people.
