The historic Shakespeare family homes will reopen this summer, the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust has announced.
LOOKING for something a little different or edgy perhaps to decorate your home? Look no further; an up and coming auction of a ‘curious collector’ may well be just what you need. A painting, ‘Frolics in the harem’, a cow horn day bed, a pair of ‘fully inflated Porcupinefish’ (blowfish) and a ‘Gharial Crocodile head mount’ are all included. Described as ‘The Curious Collector Sale’ the items were all amassed by one man to furnish a private residence. There are more than 400 items up for sale offering what Tennants Auctioneers describe as an ‘eclectic mix’ including fine art, design led furnishings, taxidermy and curios.
