Here’s everything you need to know before joining us for our last three-day show of the year.
To get you in the mood, we’re looking back at Jonny from @chapter2fineliving at our last Show, talking us through some incredible oak tables he had for sale. The oak had quite the story… sourced from a Royal Estate after the tree was struck by lightning and salvaged back in the 1960s. It’s the stories behind the pieces that make these shows so special!
The good news is Jonny will be back exhibiting with us at @ripley_castle_estate this weekend. You’ll find him in Marquee 4, with plenty more beautiful finds to discover.
