From <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/the-history-of-staffordshire-dog-figurines-and-how-to-build-your-collection/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>antique Staffordshire dog figurines</a> and <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/antique-jelly-moulds-how-to-collect-and-where-to-buy/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>collectable jelly moulds</a>, to <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/everything-you-need-to-know-about-antique-dining-chairs/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>vintage chairs</a> and <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/the-history-of-toile-de-jouy/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>French fabrics</a>, there are myriad treasures to be found at your local antiques fair or flea market. And, as lockdown restrictions ease in Britain, we’ve rounded up some of the best antiques fairs and flea markets taking place around the UK (and online) this April.</p>
<h2>When will antiques fairs be open again?</h2>
<p>The British government roadmap out of lockdown explains that from 12th April 2021 non-essential retail will be open to the public, as will ‘most outdoor attractions and settings including outdoor hospitality venues, zoos, theme parks, and drive-in cinemas’. We anticipate that some antiques fairs and flea markets will go ahead as planned after 12th April 2021 (with increased safety and distancing measures), while others may delay opening until later on in the year. However, it is important to contact fair organisers or keep an eye on websites and social media for updates regarding these events as they could be cancelled or postponed at any time.</p>
<p>If your local antiques fair isn’t taking place this month, there are still plenty of other great <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/events/fairs/best-antiques-fairs/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>antiques fair organisers to have on your radar</a> for later on in the year. Plus an array of brilliant <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/the-best-places-to-buy-antiques-online/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>places to buy antiques online</a>, on <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/interiors/shopping/how-to-buy-antiques-on-instagram/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Instagram</a> or <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/events/auctions/best-auctions-visit-uk/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>at a local auction</a>.</p>

<p><b>How to shop: </b>The brocante will open at 7pm on Friday and will close at 7pm on Sunday. When the event opens you will be able to view all the exhibitors in one place on The Dorset Brocante website. They are listed in categories to make it easier for shoppers to find what they are looking for. Simply click on to each exhibitor to reach their gallery of products. From there you can follow the link to their individual website or online store to buy from them.</p>
<p><b>11th & 25th</b> <b>So Last Century Virtual Vintage Fair</b><span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span>2pm (lasting 24 hours) <i><a href=”https://www.instagram.com/so_last_century/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>@solastc</a>; <a href=”http://solastcenturyfair.co.uk”>solastcenturyfair.co.uk</a></i></p>
<p><b>How to shop: </b>Simply tune into So Last Century on Instagram from 2pm onwards and tap the stories button (the circular logo button in the top left-hand corner of your screen) where the virtual fair will unfold with images of items being offered by 30 dealers. There will be hundreds of wonderful vintage things to buy, ranging from mid-century furniture to fashion. If you see something you like, contact the dealer with a direct message to buy or ask a question. Don’t forget, you can scroll back and pause to look at something in particular for longer. The fair is live for 24 hours so there is lots of time to call in and have a look. You can also click through to the trader’s profile to find more items they may have on offer.</p>
<p><b>18th</b> <b>Clerkenwell Virtual Vintage Fair </b>11am–5pm <i><a href=”https://www.instagram.com/clerkenwellvint/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>@clerkenwellvint</a>; </i><a href=”http://clerkenwellvintagefashionfair.co.uk”><i>clerkenwellvintagefashionfair.co.uk</i></a></p>
<p><b>How to shop: </b>Browse all the stands on the Instagram feed a couple of days before the fair.

<p><b>How to shop: </b>When the event opens at 10am on the Instagram account, the dealers will be introduced one post at a time. All that shoppers need to do is click through to the dealer and browse the stock they will have posted on their own account. Message the dealer to buy something and to arrange postage and payment. You can also access all the participating dealers on The Virtual Vintage Bazaar website during the fair.</p>
<p><b>28th, 29th & 30th</b> <b>Wealden Bazaar Evening Vintage Markets<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></b>6pm–9pm<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span><a href=”https://www.instagram.com/thewealdenbazaar/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”><i>@thewealdenbazaar</i></a></p>
<p><b>How to shop: </b>Visit the Wealden Bazaar Instagram account at 6pm and browse the vintage traders who will be announced in lists in several posts the day before the market. Each list includes the trader’s Instagram name, which you can click on to reach their account and what they are selling. The organisers also use a hashtag so you can see sellers’ stock in one place, so keep an eye out for this too.</p>

Image: Jemma Watts” title=”Homes & Antiques – May 2021. Image: Jemma Watts” /> <p>Look at any of the beautiful houses in H&A and you’ll see that, while they are all individual, they are united in the way they are filled with an interesting mix of furniture from across the centuries. This layering of old and new is key to creating a home that brims character and comfort. From a gorgeously colourful Georgian townhouse in Herefordshire, to an ex-biscuit factory in Finland with exposed brick ceilings and huge windows, there is much to admire. We also welcome Willa Latham as a new columnist – she will be sharing her quest to unravel the story of English porcelain over the coming months. Elsewhere we delve into the collecting phenomena of designer handbags and perfume bottles. There’s all the usual expert advice, plus auction highlights, fairs to visit in May and tips for refreshing your bedroom for spring.</p>

Sarah-Jane Hosegood rediscovers the practical charm of a 1950s picnic set and explains how you can buy one of your own ]]>

My campaign for the new season? To bring back the picnic set.</p>
<p>After the 1920s motoring heyday saw picnics reach a decadent peak (with <a href=”https://www.fortnumandmason.com/”>Fortnum and Mason</a> regularly producing 40-person feasts of lobsters and champagne), they enjoyed a resurgence in the early 1950s as the nation emerged from the frugal years of the war. Carefree weekend outings were the order of the day.</p>
<p>As cars became increasingly available and affordable throughout the 1950s and 1960s, companies such as Brookes and Sexton (manufacturing under the name of <a href=”http://www.picnichampers.org.uk/buy-a-picnic-hamper/brexton-picnic-hampers”>Brexton</a>) began producing sweet picnic sets, such as this red one (below).</p>

</section><p>Using high quality materials, they came in small suitcases in a variety of bold colours with tableware to cater for two, four, six or eight. They neatly stored china cups, saucers and plates produced by Gray’s Pottery of Stoke-on-Trent with accessories to match the case. Cutlery, beakers, metal food tins, glass bottles and the all-important Thermos flask all had a space to be stashed.</p>
<p>Later in the 1950s the Tupperware boom saw plastic food containers replace the metal tins and containers for milk and sugar were added. I even discovered a case with a neat fold-over serving board.</p>
<p>Rexine, a new material at the time, was used to cover the outer case and consisted of a durable coated cloth resembling leather. My own set has matching dark maroon flasks coated in the same fabric. I can’t help but admire how such careful attention to detail went into the design and layout of these sets, down to the matching flasks.</p>
<p>Brextons today are highly sought-after. At the time their popularity was such that the company produced a special edition to commemorate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. Find one of these, or indeed any set in complete and pristine condition and you will have struck picnic gold.</p>

<p>Though there are many incomplete examples, I have been heartened to find the odd missing item for sale online. All the accessories were marked with the Brexton logo, which helps with identifying bonafide pieces.</p>
<p>Prices start at a modest £25 for a case but you can expect to pay £200 plus for the rarer sets in mint condition. Vintage fairs, markets and online shops are the best hunting grounds.</p>
<p>If you are looking for a piece of older picnicking history you could start your hunt as far back as 1682. The first mention of <em>pique-nique</em> appears in a French publication, where it refers to a feast where all the guests brought a share of the food. The word picnic first appeared in England in a letter dated 1748 in which Lord Chesterfield associates it with conversation, card-playing and drinking, and it comes into more common parlance after the Royal Parks were opened to the public in 1789. A Picnic Society was even formed in the early 19th Century with members sharing refreshments and no particular host.</p>
<p>It’s a challenge to find picnic sets much older than the early 1900s when the first cased sets of tableware for eating outdoors were produced. Expensive though they are, there’s a nostalgic glamour to bound leather cases by the likes of Louis Vuitton. <a href=”http://www.pullmangallery.com/”>The Pullman Gallery</a> tend to have a selection worth browsing.</p>
<p>There are also plenty of <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/interiors/shopping/what-to-buy/best-picnic-accessories/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>vintage-inspired modern picnic sets</a> available, which are perfect for spring picnics now that lockdown restrictions have eased in Britain. Now pass me the Battenburg would you dear?</p>

Many of us arranged and rearranged our mantelpieces, kitchen shelves and desks, adorning them with gatherings of objects that brought us comfort – trinkets from foreign travels, gifts from cherished friends, treasures inherited from relations and mementoes from parties past. Some shared photographs of these pleasingly curated arrangements on Instagram, where they are known as ‘shelfies’. But for a small group of British artists it was business as usual: they had long been painting and drawing carefully assembled vignettes of objets trouvés and decorative antiques, their work united by a shared appreciation of vintage pieces.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>

<p>‘It’s about capturing memories,’ says ceramics collector and artist <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/sjaxelby/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>SJ Axelby</a>, who is known for creating colourful, finely drawn mixed media work inspired by her own collections as well as beautiful interiors she admires. ‘I always bring something back from my travels and my shelves become time capsules,’ she says,<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span>likening them to Victorian cabinets of curiosity. ‘The shelfie is a modern way of doing that; it’s a mini museum of special objects – things that have sentimental if not great monetary value.’</p>

It’s that other people have handled them, they come with histories. For this moment they’re in my hands, but I hope one day my son will handle them and many after him. When I come across something in a charity shop that’s 200 years old there’s always that ‘wow!’ moment, knowing it has survived all that time. It’s like finding treasure.’</p>
<p>Inspired by 20th-century female British artists working in the still life tradition, Unity’s colourful works are known for their fine detail. ‘I’m drawn to pattern and surface decoration, particularly of animals, birds and figures. Even when I paint animals they tend to be inspired by ceramics, by Staffordshire or Meissen pieces. I like the naivety of them, and the characterful decoration.’</p>

<p>Another artist noted for her detailed depictions of antique ceramics – often a hand-painted cup filled with a posy of seasonal flowers – is Yorkshire-based <a href=”https://debbiegeorge.bigcartel.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Debbie George</a>. ‘I’ve just sourced the smallest brush I can, a ‘000’, so things are about to get even more detailed,’ she quips when we speak. Growing up with an artist mother and a grandmother whose house had ‘pottery, antiques and paintings everywhere’, she knew she wanted to be an artist from the age of eight. ‘There was always a pot, always flowers,’ she says. ‘I love the shape of a flower or the pattern of a cup and want to put them together. Granny always had huge vases of flowers and Mum was a gardener, so there were always fresh flowers in the house. I loved going home and finding a little posy of flowers by the bed. Now they’ve both passed away the memories and emotions attached to those things are even stronger.’</p>
<p>As Debbie’s followers know, she is an avid collector of ceramics, with a special interest in antique children’s ware that was prompted by the purchase of a tiny cup from <a href=”http://richardscottantiques.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Richard Scott Antiques</a> in Holt two decades ago. Painted with the motto ‘Present for a Good Girl’ it was the start of an ever-growing collection. ‘It’s amazing what they put on nursery ware – poems, educational motifs and so on – but the naivety, the detail and the small scale also appeal to me.’</p>

<p>Printmaker and painter <a href=”https://www.angielewin.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Angie Lewin</a>’s fascination with ceramics began with a cup. ‘When I was about four years old I visited an elderly relative who had a collection of ceramics and she gave me a small Spode coffee cup,’ she remembers. ‘It was hand-painted with a shepherd, and a little flock of sheep. I was fascinated by it.’ That appreciation of decoration remains with Angie today. ‘If I see a coffee cup or vase, I’m drawn almost more to the design than the form,’ she says, ‘though with antiques I also like the history. I get very absorbed in the stylisation. The pieces I own often have botanical imagery on them, stylised by an artist in whichever era they were working. I like to think about how they chose to do it – I’m intrigued by their thought patterns.’</p>
<p>Angie’s characteristic nature table depictions pair antique ceramics with hedgerow and seashore finds foraged from the hills around her Speyside home, the nearby Moray coast or the landscapes she walks while visiting <a href=”https://www.stjudesprints.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>St Jude’s Prints</a>, the Norfolk-based printmakers’ gallery she set up with her husband Simon in 2005. Her work tends to start with something she’s been sketching that day – fritillaries from her garden, or a Staffordshire figure of a kilted Highlander. Then she scans her studio to find other items. A little lustre mug might catch her eye, or a feather, and pieces develop as she puts things together on the mantelpiece. ‘Evolving jumble is probably a good way of putting it,’ she jokes, though the end result is anything but jumbled – precise, detailed work that reflects her deep horticultural knowledge.</p>

<p>Bristol-based artist Joanna Wright jokes that ‘pots and pears seem to be what I do.’ A long-established exponent of the shelf-based still life, her paintings, prints and textile work often include pieces from her collection of antique and vintage ceramics, and it’s the everyday nature of these objects that appeals to her. ‘They’re the sort of things people might relate to,’ she says. ‘There’s nothing exotic or fantastical about them. You can get endless permutations with an apple and a pear and a cup, and you’ve always got those objects to hand.’</p>
<p>Crediting her mother with sparking her interest in collecting – ‘we were always whizzing off to junk shops and jumble sales growing up and I’ve inherited that gene’ – she now has a diverse collection of antique cups. Most are early 19th- century English teaware but she also owns some treasured pieces hand-painted by her mother-in-law, Star Wedgwood (a designer-decorator for <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/design-icons/design-icon-wedgwoods-jasperware/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Wedgwood</a> in the 1930s) and some mid-century pieces.</p>
<p>One of Joanna’s favourites is a three-handled 1940s jug with a wiggly leaf pattern and, crucially, a bright orange stripe at the bottom. ‘I’m glad to see colour is coming back,’ she says. ‘It cheers us up. We need orange and turquoise in our lives.’</p>

<p>The work of Brighton-based illustrator and designer <a href=”https://www.emilymaude.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Emily Maude</a> is diverse and constantly evolving, but she has won a recent following for her imagined tableaus based on what she calls her ‘dresser of dreams’ – collectable ceramic pieces set against antique fabrics and wallpapers. Vividly painted – sometimes on paper, sometimes using a reverse glass technique – her shelfie-style montages often include <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/the-history-of-staffordshire-dog-figurines-and-how-to-build-your-collection/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Staffordshire dogs</a> and pink lustreware.</p>
<p>Colour has been a relatively new development for Emily. ‘I guess those jewel-like shades come from wanting to find joy in a bleak time,’ she says. But <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/collecting-guides-antiques/the-history-of-staffordshire-dog-figurines-and-how-to-build-your-collection/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Staffordshire dogs</a> have long been a source of inspiration. ‘They’re part of the country’s folk art heritage. Like lustreware, they were made to be affordable but, although they were mass-produced, each piece is slightly different and has its own character because it was hand-painted. It intrigues me, when I pick one up, to think: “Who would have<br />decorated this?”’</p>

<p>For painter <a href=”https://www.lottiecole.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Lottie Cole</a> it’s not the question ‘Who painted this?’ that inspires her, but rather ‘Who might have owned this?’ She approaches her interiors-based paintings by thinking about the imaginary person who might inhabit the room she is creating. She then lets herself go on an imaginary shopping spree, she explains. ‘I don’t own very much of what I paint. Painting my own house doesn’t excite me. It’s the thrill of the chase, the conjuring up, the thinking: “That parrot would be hard to dust!”’</p>
<p>The parrot in question appears in one of a series of mantelpiece paintings Sussex-based Lottie has recently been working on. ‘I didn’t want to do straight still lifes but I was attracted to mantelpieces because they’re the stage sets of people’s lives,’ she says. ‘I listened to a radio documentary discussing mantelpieces as shrines to people’s aspirations, how they hold the things we love, the invitations to events. They’re a reflection of how we’d like to be seen, perhaps, rather than how we really are.’</p>
<p>Her paintings, which often incorporate antiques, are similarly an attempt to describe the idea of home. ‘Women are so good at making a home,’ she says. ‘Often you’ll have a beautiful room, but it’s not perfect. There’s that hideous heirloom you’ve kept because you love it. That interests me. I like to imagine the story behind each item I paint. I have a pair of ceramic pheasants on my mantelpiece that I found in a junk shop. They really shouldn’t go in that room but they mean something to me and I love them, and somehow they work.’ She finds immaculate interiors hotel-like and too perfect. ‘If you look at my paintings you’ll see that small tables may be squished up too close to a sofa, or a chair may be blocking something else. But that’s how we live,’ she says.</p>

Here it brings contrast to decorative pieces with Morris & Co references and simplicity.” /> <p><a href=”https://www.vam.ac.uk/articles/arts-and-crafts-an-introduction”>Arts and Crafts</a> designer <a href=”https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Morris”>William Morris</a> may be a national treasure today – the fabrics and wallpapers designed both by him and by his company <a href=”https://www.stylelibrary.com/morris&co/”>Morris & Co</a> are regarded as agreeably familiar and comfortable. Yet, in his time, Morris was a revolutionary, and his products were purchased by trend-setters and forward-thinkers who wished to challenge convention.</p>
<p>The Victorian fashion was for chintzes or formal patterns, machine-printed using harsh, chemical dyes. Morris, a self-taught designer, worked English flora and fauna into layered patterns, and printed them by hand using natural dyes.</p>
<p>The organic nature of his prints gives them more appeal today than ever before. Trends this season hark to the natural and rustic and, when you’re providing a backdrop to much-loved antiques, soft Morris prints are ideal – allowing woods and stones in particular to sing out.</p>
<p>The great thing about Morris patterns is that they can be used anywhere. Designs range from simple, one-colour prints to intensely ornate showstoppers – something for every room.</p>
<p>Here, we explore stylish ways to incorporate his timeless prints into even the most contemporary of homes.</p>
<h3>Mix and match patterned swatches to create a colourful display</h3>
<p>Morris & Co, the firm that Morris launched in 1875, reproduces Morris designs that are faithful to the originals, alongside new adaptations. The designs complement each other beautifully so try creating a moodboard and pinning a variety above your desk.</p>

<p>As its name suggests, this ‘Bachelors Button’ design has a masculine feel and could bring a soft edge to a shapely period fireplace. Here it also brings contrast to a collection of decorative pieces with Morris & Co references and simplicity.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>

<h3>Use William Morris prints to unite a collection of antiques</h3>
<p>Why not choose a Morris pattern to provide the perfect backdrop to a collection of antiques? Theme your pieces roughly by colour (such as on this chest of drawers) and pick out a shade and print that will bring together what seem to be otherwise disparate finds.</p>

<h3>Go bold with a William Morris block print</h3>
<p>The block-printed feel and simple enlarged scale of the ‘Woodland Animal’ pattern from the ‘Archive’ collection from Morris & Co gives these archive prints a youthful appeal. Adding striped and smaller-scale leaf prints creates an informal scheme. Why not try a large-scale floral against a neutral scheme to give the print maximum impact? Pull out key colours and add texture with beautiful but useful accessories.</p>

<h2>Where to buy affordable antiques and art</h2>
<p><strong><a href=”https://www.tat-london.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Tat London</a></strong></p>
<p>Charlie Porter started Tat four years ago as a side project to her job as an interiors stylist. She loves junk shops and car booting so, to indulge her passion, she decided to open an online shop selling what she describes as ‘low brow’ pieces. ‘I never think I specialise in anything, I buy what I like,’ she says. ‘But it would seem I like a lot of 20th-century European art and any sort of sconce – it can range from 17th-century to the 1990s. As long as you can put a candle in it, I will buy it.’</p>

<p>Scroll through the squares of Instagram seller Elizabeth Kemp’s account and you’ll find all manner of antique and vintage decorative items, from fabrics to pictures and china. Pretty vintage tins feature heavily and so too do charming antique prints. After working for several years in the art world in London, Elizabeth moved to a cottage near Frome in Somerset with her husband and decided to set up a business from home. Her grandmother is an antiques dealer and her mother (Ros Byam Shaw) writes about interiors so antiques and decorating run deep. ‘I am selling things found by my mother and my grandmother as well as by me. The only criteria are that they are things I love and would want in my own home,’ she says.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>

<p>Founded in 2006 by mother and daughter Denise and Samantha Allan, The Shop Floor Project brings together the work of brilliant makers and artists. The duo expertly curate a website full of objects worthy of keeping and passing down through generations. We’re in love with Francesca Kaye’s Delft Woman plates and Raphael Balme’s The House & Garden Party collection of oil paintings, not to mention the superb Christmas decorations.</p>

<p>We have always loved Kath Griffiths’ well-chosen selection of beautiful folk textiles from Central and Eastern Europe. You may have stumbled upon her exquisite stands at antique textile fairs. She doesn’t have a shop but she does sell through her website. Click from piece to piece of vintage dyed indigo linen through to hemp grain sacks, then cushion covers made using Hungarian and Transylvanian embroidery – and much more.</p>

<p>Cary Whitley has recently changed roles from a vintage fair organiser to an Instagram dealer. A collector for over 20 years of all things vintage with a particular interest in textiles, buttons and trimmings, she now runs her own business buying, selling and sourcing vintage and antiques. Her online shop sells everything from haberdashery, fashion accessories and jewellery to handbags, ephemera and pictures.</p>

<p>As well as standing at popular fairs such as Frock Me! and having a bricks and mortar shop hidden away in Brighton’s South Lanes, Louise Hill has an online store for her vintage fashion business Hope & Harlequin. ‘I love hearing about a dress bought from me years ago and worn to a wonderful event or how it’s become one of my clients’ favourite items,’ she says. ‘Occasionally I see the pieces again and it’s like seeing old friends.’ Louise sources her stunning collection of dresses, tops, coats and more dating from the 1920s to 1980s in the UK and around the world. <i><br /></i></p>

<p><a href=”https://masonandpainter.wpcomstaging.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”><strong>Mason & Painter</strong></a></p>
<p>Michelle Mason, who runs real-life vintage store Mason & Painter on Columbia Road in east London, home to the famous Sunday flower market, was quick to act when she saw the spring lockdown looming and launched her online atelier two days before businesses had to temporarily shut up shop. She now ships worldwide. Michelle’s carefully chosen selection of stock mixes French vintage cafe furniture, homewares, mirrors, paintings and prints with industrial salvage, ceramics and a large display of plants. Her Instagram account is a good substitute for visiting the real shop as it features dreamy photos of styled spaces in the store.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>
<p><a href=”https://cart-house.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”><strong>Cart-House</strong></a></p>
<p>Those who know about Bristol-based Cart-House, run by Ben and Cathryn Bailey, keep an eye on their Instagram account for updates on new pieces added to the site. The couple sell<br />a range of 19th to 20th-century furniture from all over Europe, specialising in cabinets, French armchairs, rugs and paintings that get snapped up quickly.</p>

<p>When fairs and markets came to a halt due to Covid restrictions, Keeley Rosendale, who runs Vintage Home Show events, decided to help fellow dealers who did not have online selling platforms by setting up the Discover Vintage Marketplace. The site brings together fashion as well as pieces for the home, including mid-century dining chairs, G Plan and Ercol furniture, bamboo accessories, sunburst clocks and much more.<i><br /></i></p>

<p>A good stop on your virtual antiquing jaunt is the Vintage Boathouse, which has some strong pieces of well-priced furniture, namely mirrors, farmhouse tables, and chests of drawers sold from a barn in Petersfield, Hampshire.</p>

<p>Once you’ve lost yourself for a while poring over Emily Sizer’s beautiful Instagram account, you can click through to her shop to browse vintage jars, pots, buckets, bowls and more. Emily was born and brought up in Bakewell and spent many happy days scouring brocantes in France with<br />her parents. She chose not to go to university and now runs her business from the area, mainly selling French brocante finds, ranging from confit pots and vintage French china to wire baskets and galvanised tubs. ‘I love the sustainability of reusing and finding new purposes for time-worn pieces that have age and history to them,’ she says. ‘I’m greatly inspired by the countryside around me and can always be found foraging or at my allotment where I grow flowers, which I use in my photographs and on my stalls.’ <i><br /></i></p>

<p>Colourful wallpapers and richly patterned textiles not only give a room character and life, but they also act as foils for fine furniture, decorative antiques, vintage pieces and other collections you might have.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>
<p>Textile designer <a href=”https://mollymahon.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Molly Mahon</a>, known for her exuberant block-prints, explains the enduring appeal of layering designs and colours: ‘There’s something nostalgic about using lots of pattern,’ she says, recalling the <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/interiors/decorating/how-to-use-william-morris-prints-to-brighten-your-home/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>William Morris</a> sofas at her childhood home. Frieda Gormley of House of Hackney thinks layering pattern on pattern and embracing colour is a wonderful means of expressing one’s individuality. ‘I see pattern as a chance to imbue a space with personality,’ she says.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>

<h2>Where to start when mixing print and pattern at home</h2>
<p>Many interior designers begin by selecting a primary fabric, which they then layer with more simplified versions of the design.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>
<p>Fabric and wallpaper designer <a href=”https://www.charlottegaisford.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Charlotte Gaisford</a> says she always chooses her main fabric first. ‘Once I have my showstopper design I can find other fabrics to combine with my choice,’ she says. It amazes her that people focus only on choosing one fabric for a room. ‘It’s important to consider all the soft furnishings: cushions, <a href=”https://www.homesandantiques.com/interiors/decorating/how-to/10-ways-to-add-personality-with-upholstery/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>upholstery</a>, window seats, and so on. It would be boring if you used the same fabric for all of these. You need to think about the<br />whole scheme.’</p>

</section><h2>Always consider the scale of the prints and patterns that you choose</h2>
<p>Interior designer and broadcaster <a href=”https://www.sophierobinson.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Sophie Robinson</a> recommends ensuring there are plenty of prints in varying sizes in the mix: from slim, ticking stripes to oversized florals. ‘I tie these together with a tight colour palette,’ she explains. ‘Often, I’ll start with a hero fabric like a detailed chintz and from that spin off the colours into stripes, geometrics and other florals. Seeing them all jostle next to one another just sparks joy for me.’ <a href=”https://mollymahon.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Molly Mahon</a> agrees that scale is important. ‘It’s calmer on the eye to sit big patterns next to little patterns, rather than having lots of small designs.’<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>

<h2>Observe how patterns behave on different materials</h2>
<p>‘The thing to understand,’ says interior decorator and antiques dealer <a href=”https://www.robertkime.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Robert Kime</a>, ‘is that on a fabric you won’t always see pattern the way you see it on a wallpaper. Patterns on wallpaper are viewed flat, so they have a different effect and impact than fabric, which is often gathered.’</p>
<p>Although it breaks the traditional rules of decorating, and takes confidence and a good eye, top-to- bottom entirely matching schemes are having something of a moment. This approach not only makes a serious statement, but it can result in a wonderfully cocooning effect, which is especially good in a bedroom or bathroom. ‘I’m a<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span>great proponent of covering all the surfaces of a room – walls, ceilings and upholstery – in matching wallpaper and fabric to feel enveloped in the most cosseting way,’ says <a href=”https://www.soane.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Lulu Lytle of Soane Britain</a>. <a href=”https://www.houseofhackney.com/uk/” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Frieda Gormley</a> is also a fan of this ‘surround-sound’ look. ‘Our approach is totally fearless,’ she says. ‘But if you’re on a budget, just wallpaper the ceiling and paint the walls – the effect will be dramatic, unexpected, and utterly mesmerising.’</p>

<h2>Combine patterned wallpapers and textiles for a harmonious look</h2>
<p>The real secret to combining a number of richly patterned wallpapers and textiles successfully, Frieda says, is by ‘creating beauty and harmony through a cohesive colour palette<br />in each room. Print-on-print looks great when the tones are similar. Alternatively, you could use the same print in contrasting colours to create depth and interest, say by toughening up soft pink with petrol blue or black.’ She also suggests picking out the tonal highlights in a print and painting woodwork the same shade.</p>
<p><a href=”https://mollymahon.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Molly Mahon</a> suggests choosing a selection of colours that are uplifting and to simply shrug off any so-called rules about colour combinations. ‘Some people can take colour more than others,’ she says. ‘I can live comfortably with lots of colour. I love red and pink. People say certain colours clash, but do they? Do they clash, or do they sing?’</p>
<p>If you keep differing patterns the same colour, you can clash these with bolder colours elsewhere in a room, says Charlotte Gaisford. ‘Although my drawing room has lots of pattern, I actually used a fairly simple concept. I chose contrasting colours of green, red and gold for a strong, dramatic effect, but I put together six different patterned fabrics in the curtains, cushions and lampshade, using the same colours.’<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>

<h2>Use different textures to add depth to a scheme</h2>
<p>Texture is another part of the puzzle when playing with pattern, and it is the key to layering and essential for adding depth to a scheme. ‘It’s always good to try to incorporate patterns of different textures, such as weaves, heavy linens, stripes and florals,’ says interior designer <a href=”https://www.pennymorrison.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Penny Morrison</a>. ‘I always try to include some vintage textiles, maybe on the cushions or<br />on a single armchair.’<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>
<h2>Mix and match patterned accessories for an eclectic look</h2>
<p>Accessories such as cushions and lampshades also allow for experimentation without a hefty price tag. ‘Pops of pattern and colour make a huge difference,’ she says. ‘This can be patterned lamps, or lampshades, cushions and rugs over the back of a chair or sofa. I like vintage Swedish rugs in particular, but any rug can pull a room together and they are so easily changed.’ <a href=”https://www.robertkime.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Robert Kime</a> agrees. ‘We start every project and room with the rug and<br />go up from there. An antique rug can carry a space and provide a kind of base – colour is more directional, but a rug fully sets the tone.’<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>
<p><a href=”https://mollymahon.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Molly Mahon</a> finds that people become braver and bolder as they begin to introduce more pattern to their interiors. ‘We always suggest that you start with a cushion or two<br />and build from there. Then add a lampshade, which will add instant interest. It’s a good way to adjust to living with more pattern and colour.’ <a href=”https://www.charlottegaisford.co.uk” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Charlotte Gaisford</a> heartily agrees. ‘Add pattern slowly, and enjoy shopping for the different elements. Make the room an experience in its own right.’<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span></p>
