WHERE TO SEE THIS UNIQUE
FREEHAND PAINTED CHINA
"Quite
possibly nothing like these miniature pieces has been produced
on china since the painting of china began well over 1000
years ago".
|
-
Pieces
take very many hours to complete, so the annual output is too
small to cater for a large number of retailers.
- Steve
and Terry have tried to provide a good geographical spread to give
as many people as possible chance to see their work.
-
All
the retailers offer worldwide mail order facilities, with no charge
for insured delivery.
- One
additional retailer, preferably covering the west/south west of
England, will be recruited in due course to complete the group.

n' Wife 7 Market Street, Carnforth,
Lancs. LA5 9JX 01524 732053 WEBSITE
Keith
and Anne Moore have, over the last 30 years, built up an impressive
business with three floors of high quality merchandise in
the delightful North Lancashire town of Carnforth. If you
are travelling up the M6 to the Lake District or Scotland
their deceptively spacious shop is an Aladdin's cave and is
just five minutes drive from junction 35 on the motorway.
Recognising the potential, they were the first retailer to
stock Steve and Terry's pieces, but they also keep a huge
stock of Moorcroft Pottery (more than 300 pieces) and a full
range of collectables and giftware. They specialise in high
quality cookware and tableware from the main maufacturers.

Ken
Fish at Felbrigg Morley has many years experience in selling
china, art pottery and giftware in North America. He stocks
some of Steve and Terry's UK editions but also has some pieces
exclusive to Canada, which can be seen on his dedicated website.
Ken is enormously enthusiastic and feels there is a huge market
in North America for wildlife art, especially paintings on
china plaques, which are innovative and rarely seen. He offers
free delivery to the UK, USA, Australia and New Zealand, but
please remember that local taxes may be charged on entry and
the carriers may also collect a small handling charge.

PLEASE
NOTE: These stockists provide a first class friendly
service and are a pleasure to work with. If you live too far
away to be able to examine the pieces "in the hand",
and perhaps have reservations about buying your first piece
by mail order, don't worry. I am sure they have such confidence
in the product that they would be more than willing, if asked
at the time of purchase, to make a refund if you were in any
way disappointed. I cannot forsee that being the case - your
main worry should be whether the retailers have any pieces
in stock or on allocation to offer you!
