Each piece of memorabilia tells a story—a snapshot of a moment frozen in time, immortalized in the hearts and minds of fans and collectors alike. Whether it’s reliving the excitement of a classic film premiere, commemorating a historic sporting event, or paying homage to a beloved musician, memorabilia collectors find joy in the memories and connections forged through their collections.

Let us help you recognise a real piece from a fake with our tips & advice!

16
Is it Genuine?

Gemstones & Jewellery present problems in identifying if they are Fake or Real ...

It is becoming increasingly important to frequent experienced and expert dealers to ensure that your collection is created from genuine pieces. Technology is being used more and more to provide a flood of fakes and imitations, sometimes called ‘reproductions’, and often circulated on the internet and then into the antique chain via auctions and collectors fairs.

The auction route is often the favourite of the fakers, since auction houses are not covered by the ‘sale of goods act’ and often rely on the vendor’s description. You may see a proliferation of fake watches being openly advertised and sold on the internet on various sites - after all, any vintage watch with a black dial is now a ‘military’ ‘watch! Technically, however, these are not too difficult to identify, but gemstones and jewellery present a different problem, and one that increasingly requires complicated and expensive equipment to identify, and the expertise to use them.

Modern equipment makes it very easy to cast copies of vintage and antique jewellery from the originals, but also provides us with the means to test and identify these pieces.

What is not so easy to identify are the synthetic and manufactured gemstones.

We already have the situation where experts estimate that 50% of modern amethyst on the market is synthetic, almost no natural opal is used in modern volume production jewellery, turquoise is normally filled or reconstituted, and the price of amber has brought out all sorts of fakes and imitations, with probably half of all sold at auction being fake – either modern or vintage.

New legislation is required to protect individuals, along with traders and dealers having an open mind to encompass the changes taking place in

the market place. It is no longer good enough to be accepting goods at face value, or ‘that’s what it was sold to me as!’ You have to be aware that the gentle art of faking is out there in every area of antiques and vintage article sales, and at every level of value. Any competent dealer has to try to keep aware of new treatments and manufacturing processes that affect his area of expertise.

Many dealers see incorrectly described items advertised on the internet almost daily, in on line auctions, and brought into their shops for evaluation. A prime example of this is the frequent attribution of jewellery to Georg Jensen on the internet because of similar hallmarks used by UK manufacturers. We have heard stories that ‘this was used by Jensen for items made in UK for their London shop!’ Rubbish! A simple phone call to the London Assay office with a description of the sponsor’s mark quickly gives the true manufacturer of items like St. Christopher’s, crosses and lockets which have none of the style or design of true Jensen jewellery.

The internet is a marvellous tool, if used correctly. But it is open to all, both expert and forger. There is sometimes limited guarantee, but if you do not know your subject, would you know if the article is fake or not? Also a large number of positive feedback comments can also mean that nobody has thought to question the goods supplied.

A bricks and mortar dealer, on the other hand, is there at a fixed location, to be seen with any queries or anything that you are uncertain about, to be talked to face to face, and to be able to advise you, not somewhere off in cyberspace with limited access, and less accountability, so with any such item, use them as the fantastic resource they rightly have become.

Reviving History

The Art & Craft of Antique Furniture Restoration & Upcycling

In a world captivated by fleeting trends and disposable goods, there’s something inherently special about antique furniture. These timeless pieces bear the marks of history, craftsmanship, and character, offering a tangible link to the past. However, as they age, many antique pieces require restoration to bring them back to their former glory. In recent years, a growing movement towards upcycling has also emerged, offering a fresh perspective on breathing new life into old furniture. Join us as we explore the art and craft of antique furniture restoration and upcycling, where tradition meets innovation in the pursuit of preserving history and creating unique, sustainable pieces for the modern home.

Restoring Heritage: The Beauty of Antique Furniture

Antique furniture tells a story—a narrative of craftsmanship, heritage, and tradition passed

down through generations. From ornately carved Victorian dressers to sleek mid-century modern tables, each piece bears the hallmarks of its era, reflecting the design sensibilities and cultural influences of the time. However, as these pieces age, they often require careful restoration to repair damage, stabilize structures, and preserve their beauty for future generations to enjoy.

Restoring antique furniture is both an art and a science, requiring a delicate balance of skill, knowledge, and patience. Expert restorers meticulously assess each piece, identifying areas of wear, damage, or deterioration before embarking on the restoration process. From repairing loose joints and replacing missing veneer to refinishing surfaces and polishing hardware, every step is undertaken with the utmost care and attention to detail, ensuring that the integrity and authenticity of the piece are preserved.

18

Embracing Innovation: The Rise of Upcycling

In recent years, a growing number of artisans and DIY enthusiasts have embraced the concept of upcycling—an innovative approach to repurposing and revitalizing old furniture. Unlike traditional restoration, which aims to preserve the original integrity of a piece, upcycling encourages creative reinterpretation, transforming tired, outdated furniture into fresh, contemporary designs with newfound purpose and style.

Upcycling involves a myriad of techniques, from painting and staining to decoupage and upholstery, allowing artisans to unleash their creativity and breathe new life into old furniture. Whether it’s giving a weathered dresser a vibrant coat of paint, repurposing salvaged materials into statement pieces, or combining disparate elements to create eclectic designs, upcycling offers endless possibilities for reinventing and reimagining antique furniture for the modern home.

Preserving History, Creating Futures: The Impact of Restoration & Upcycling

Beyond the aesthetic appeal, antique furniture restoration and upcycling carry significant cultural and environmental implications. By restoring and preserving antique pieces, we honour the legacy of craftsmanship and design that defines our cultural

heritage, ensuring that these treasures continue to be appreciated and cherished for generations to come.

Similarly, upcycling offers a sustainable alternative to disposable furniture, reducing waste and minimizing our environmental footprint. By repurposing old furniture and salvaging materials that would otherwise end up in landfills, we contribute to a more eco-friendly approach to home décor, promoting the principles of reuse, recycle, and repurpose.

Blending Tradition with Innovation

In the ever-evolving world of home décor, antique furniture restoration and upcycling offer a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, where the past meets the present in a celebration of creativity and craftsmanship. Whether restoring a cherished heirloom to its former glory or transforming a forgotten relic into a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, the art and craft of antique furniture restoration and upcycling inspire us to look beyond the surface and uncover the hidden beauty of history. So, the next time you come across an old piece of furniture in need of some TLC, consider the transformative power of restoration and upcycling—it’s not just about preserving the past, but also creating a brighter future for generations to come.

The Timeless Appeal of Militaria

In a world marked by shifting borders, conflicts, and alliances, the artefacts of warfare hold a unique fascination. From antique weapons to military uniforms, medals, and equipment, militaria offers collectors a tangible connection to the triumphs, tragedies, and sacrifices of the past. But what drives individuals to collect these relics of war, and what treasures lie waiting to be discovered in the world of militaria?

Unveiling the Enigma of Militaria

Militaria encompasses a vast array of objects spanning centuries of human history. From ancient swords and armour to modern firearms and battlefield relics, these artefacts offer a window into the evolution of warfare and the cultures that shaped it. For some collectors, the allure of militaria lies in its historical significance, providing

Article Generated by AI
“Providing insights into history”

insights into military tactics, technology, and the experiences of soldiers on the front lines. For others, it’s a matter of preserving the memory of past conflicts and honouring the sacrifices made by those who served.

The Art of Militaria Collecting

Collecting militaria requires more than just a passion for history; it demands a keen eye, meticulous research, and a deep respect for the artefacts and the stories they hold. Here are some essential tips for aspiring militaria collectors:

1. Educate Yourself: Before diving into collecting militaria, take the time to educate yourself about different eras, conflicts, and the objects associated with them. Books, documentaries, online forums, and museums are valuable resources for learning about military history and identifying authentic artefacts.

2. Focus Your Collection: Given the vastness of militaria, it’s essential to narrow your focus to specific eras, regions, or types of artefacts that interest you most. Whether you’re drawn to World War II memorabilia, Civil War relics, or ancient weaponry, having a clear focus will help you build a cohesive and meaningful collection.

3. Verify Authenticity: With the proliferation of reproductions and fakes in the militaria

market, verifying the authenticity of artefacts is paramount. Look for distinguishing marks, manufacturer stamps, or provenance documentation to confirm the legitimacy of an item. Consulting experts or joining collectors’ communities can also provide valuable insights and authentication assistance.

4. Respect History: As custodians of history, militaria collectors have a responsibility to treat artefacts with care and respect. Proper storage, handling, and conservation techniques are essential for preserving the integrity of these objects for future generations. Additionally, be mindful of the ethical considerations surrounding certain types of militaria, such as items with controversial symbols or associations.

5. Connect with Fellow Collectors: One of the joys of militaria collecting is the sense of camaraderie and community among enthusiasts. Whether you’re attending collectors’ shows, joining online forums, or visiting historical reenactments, connecting with fellow collectors allows you to share knowledge, exchange stories, and expand your understanding of militaria.

The Rewards of Militaria Collecting

Beyond the thrill of acquiring rare artefacts, militaria collecting offers a deeply enriching and meaningful experience. Each piece in a collection represents a chapter in the larger narrative of human conflict, shedding light on the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of those who served. By preserving these artefacts and their stories, collectors play a vital role in honouring the past and ensuring that future generations never forget the lessons of history.

In a world marked by rapid change and uncertainty, the study and collection of militaria provide a sense of continuity and perspective. By exploring the artefacts of war, we gain a deeper understanding of the human experience and the enduring legacy of those who came before us. So, whether you’re a seasoned collector or a newcomer to the world of militaria, consider embarking on your own journey of discovery and reflection. Who knows what treasures and insights await you along the way?

After 20 years on the Market Place in Olney, Leo Antiques has now moved into new premises just inside the charming Rose Court, literally next door to where we were. Still on the first floor, but well worth the short staircase to our cosy new premises.

In Rose Court, we have the popular Courtyard Brasserie, Valeria C Ladies Boutique, and the colourful Olney Flower Shop. So now with antiques, its a great place for a spot of shopping along with a cuppa or even lunch.

We are open as usual Tuesday to Sunday 11am to 4pm and on Bank Holidays too.

We are pleased to be part of Olney Loves Dogs Group of shops & restaurants! So your 4 legged companions are most welcome, along with 3 hours free parking in the Market Place. Why not make Olney your day out destination!

PHILATELY FOR BEGINNERS

The definition applies in its strictest sense to those devoted to the collection of postage stamps, but in a broader sense can also apply to the study and collection of postal history items from postcards to letters and much more. Traditionally these would be displayed in order of area and date issued, but more and more collectors are following a less linear approach to both collection and display.

The genre is absolutely vast, so many beginners tend to start with a theme of sorts, which is a very satisfying way of collecting as you begin to follow down various paths of study. Thematic philately appeals to many, as interests from other areas of your life can allow for a richer vein of collection. You might like wildlife, a particular country, a period in history or a military campaign which is of interest. Some collectors choose to cover a wider range of objects based perhaps in a small village or town of origin. Over time this might develop as postal routes and family link is become clearer. If you choose a theme which is somewhat familiar, you should have a certain knowledge which will help you to begin researching and the direction your collection will go in.

Postage stamps, postage due stamps, where a stamp has been under paid and requires payment on delivery and airmail postage stamps are all great places to start. It is impossible to collect absolutely everything, so a field of study should give you a focal point to begin your stamp collecting journey.

Start by visiting stamp fairs, and a good local

dealer should be able to point you in the right direction as to where to begin your searching. Local philatelic societies are also an enormous help, top find you most relevant group visit the Association of British Philatelic Societies’ website at www.abps.org.uk or visit the National Philatelic Society website for a larger group at www.ukphilately.org.uk.

Your collection will likely grow apace, and many philatelists particularly enjoy exhibiting their finds. You may like to look at specialist display albums to display your stamps and documents, and some collectors like to take this even further into the field be exhibiting and even competing in front of likeminded philatelists in the more formal field of exhibiting. The exhibitions are usually a friendly, information filled environment filled with like-minded collectors and are usually a mine of information and research, providing excellent sourcing ideas and hidden knowledge. The act of exhibiting itself, and planning how to display your wares and the story that they tell is for many as much of an enjoyable as ownership in itself.

A Numismatic Journey

The Fascinating World of British Coin Collecting

In the realm of numismatics, few endeavours capture the imagination and historical significance as collecting coins does. Among the myriad of coinage traditions, British coins stand out for their rich history, diverse designs, and cultural significance. Embarking on a journey to collect British coins is akin to diving into a treasure trove of centuries-old stories, royal portraits, and national pride. Let’s explore the captivating world of British coin collecting, where every coin is a piece of history waiting to be discovered.

Unveiling the Heritage: The history of British coinage dates back over two millennia, beginning with ancient Celtic tribes minting their own currencies. However, it was during the Roman conquest of Britain that the island saw standardized coinage introduced, featuring the likenesses of emperors and symbols of power. Over the centuries, the evolution of British coinage mirrors the nation’s political, economic, and cultural transformations, from the Anglo-Saxon pennies to the iconic Tudor sovereigns and the modern decimal coinage system introduced in 1971.

A Tapestry of Designs: One of the most captivating aspects of British coins is the diversity of designs reflecting the era in which they were minted. From the majestic portraits of monarchs like Queen Victoria and King George VI to the symbols of British heraldry such as the rampant lion and the Tudor rose, each coin tells a unique story of its time. The intricate details and craftsmanship exhibited in coins from different periods showcase the artistic prowess of minters and engravers throughout history.

Key Collecting Themes: Collecting British coins offers enthusiasts a wide array of themes to explore. Some collectors focus on acquiring coins from specific reigns or monarchs, aiming to complete a comprehensive collection spanning centuries. Others are drawn to coins featuring notable historical events, commemorative issues, or rare minting errors. The beauty of British coin collecting lies in its versatility, accommodating collectors with varying interests and budgets.

The Thrill of the Hunt: For many collectors, the thrill of the hunt is an integral part of the hobby. Whether scouring flea markets, attending coin fairs, or browsing online auctions, the quest for elusive coins adds an element of excitement to the collecting experience. Discovering a rare variant or a coin with a unique backstory can be immensely rewarding, fuelling the passion for numismatics and the desire to expand one’s collection.

In the world of numismatics, collecting British coins holds a special allure, offering a gateway to the rich tapestry of British history and heritage. From ancient Celtic coins to modern decimal currency, each coin represents a chapter in the story of a nation. As collectors delve into this fascinating realm, they embark on a journey of discovery, exploration, and preservation—a journey that transcends mere hobbyism and becomes a lifelong pursuit of knowledge and appreciation. So, whether you’re a seasoned collector or a curious novice, consider delving into the captivating world of British coin collecting— you may just uncover a treasure trove of history waiting to be explored.

British Military Medals

Campaign and military medals can be a helpful tool for researchers looking to understand military history and can give a fascinating insight into military careers and imperial history. For more than 200 years, the British have, like many nations,

marked wars, campaigns and battles; fought, won and lost, by the award of medals. Sufficient numbers have made collecting medals a practical and enjoyable pastime. They are also a great size and style for collectors; relatively easy to care for,

90
“Medals can give a fascinating insight into military careers and imperial history”

simple to store and attractive as a display. Prices vary quite significantly meaning that beginners can start their collection relatively easily.

Roughly split in to two groups – official campaign medals awarded for service in active operations; and gallantry medals which have been awarded for specific acts, medals are a well established part of British military tradition, and have been collected by enthusiasts for almost as long. The hobby has in recent years become more than just about a collection, instead concentrating on the background of the recipient, and in some cases a military genealogy which can follow several generations of an entire family. This is commonly the case with medals for the World Wars of 1914-18 and 1939-45; few families escaped some military involvement in the great

conflicts of the 20th Century. Other collectors may concentrate on a particular regiment, or perhaps both sides in a specific battle awarded to opposing forces. Depending on the providence of your medals, you may be able to find out some fascinating information on the original recipient which can truly bring campaigns and battles back to life. Many will be inscribed with the name of the recipient which can be a good starting point; others may be sold by descendants or knowledgeable dealers who can give you the detail.

The CWGC (Commonwealth War Grave Commission) and OMRS (Orders, Medals and Research Society) are great places to start searching for information about the original owner of your medals.

A Beginner’s Guide to Metal Detecting

Metal detecting isn’t just a hobby—it’s an exhilarating journey of discovery that takes you through time and terrain, unveiling treasures and stories hidden beneath the surface. If you’re new to this captivating pursuit, fear not! Here’s a beginner’s guide to help you embark on your metal detecting adventure.

1. Get the Right Gear: Before you venture out into the field, you’ll need the right equipment. Invest in a quality metal detector suitable for beginners, ensuring it’s easy to use and has adjustable settings to suit different environments. Additionally, don’t forget to bring along essential accessories like headphones, a digging tool, and a finds pouch to keep your discoveries safe.

2. Know Where to Look: Choosing the right location is crucial for a successful metal detecting outing. Start by researching public parks, beaches, and other recreational areas where people gather. Always obtain permission before detecting on private property, and be mindful of any local regulations or restrictions regarding metal detecting in certain areas.

3. Learn Your Detector: Familiarise yourself with your metal detector before heading out into the field. Read the user manual thoroughly and practice using the device in your backyard or a nearby park. Experiment with different settings and learn to interpret the signals emitted by the detector, distinguishing between valuable targets and common debris.

4. Start Small: As a beginner, it’s important to manage your expectations and start with realistic goals. Begin by focusing on high-traffic areas where you’re more likely to find coins, jewellry,

and other common items. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t strike gold on your first outing—metal detecting is as much about the journey as it is about the discoveries.

5. Take Your Time: Metal detecting is a patient man’s game. Take your time and thoroughly cover each area, sweeping your detector methodically in overlapping patterns. Pay attention to subtle changes in tone and depth, as valuable targets may be buried deeper or hidden beneath layers of soil and debris.

6. Respect the Environment: Always practice responsible metal detecting and leave no trace behind. Fill in any holes you dig and respect the natural environment and wildlife around you. Follow the principles of “leave only footprints, take only memories” to ensure that future generations can enjoy the same outdoor spaces you explore.

8. Have Fun: Above all, remember to have fun! Metal detecting is a rewarding hobby that offers endless opportunities for adventure and discovery. Enjoy the thrill of uncovering hidden treasures, exploring new places, and immersing yourself in the rich history that lies beneath your feet.

As you embark on your metal detecting journey as a beginner, remember that every beep of your detector is a step closer to uncovering a piece of history. With the right gear, knowledge, and mindset, you’ll soon find yourself immersed in the exhilarating world of metal detecting, where every outing holds the promise of new discoveries and unforgettable experiences. So, grab your detector and start uncovering the adventure that awaits beneath the surface!
