Gathered together for the first time ever, these articles cover a wide range of important antiques, from the very earliest rare 17th and 18th century woodens to popular 19th century china heads, mysterious English waxes and the classic, precious French bisques. Always a champion of personal expression, Mr Noble pays equal homage to home-made cloth creations and paper dolls of the past, finding them evocative examples of folk art, and a key to understanding social history.
