One of the biggest antiques fairs Carmarthenshire has ever seen takes place at the National Botanic Garden of Wales this weekend (October 5-6).
There will be a huge range of stalls in the stunning surrounds of the Great Glasshouse, the regency splendour of Principality House and in the Garden marquee; and there will be some rare Nantgarw porcelain on display.
Antiques are proving very popular at the Garden with one recent weekend event clocking up a mammoth 6,800 visitors over the two days.
Organiser Brita Rogers, of Derwen Antiques, said: “The fair will feature more than 50 stalls showcasing Welsh areas of collecting including pottery, jewellery, art and furniture. There will also be paintings and textiles – with a range of Welsh blankets on display.”
Brita is promising a wonderful spectacle with a huge array of styles and themes – from ancient Chinese, retro 60s and country farmhouse.
The Antiques Fair runs from 10am until 4.30pm on Saturday October 5 and Sunday October 6. There is plenty of free parking. Admission to the Garden is £4.
