The Connoisseur’s Choice
The 46th Annual Buxton Antiques Fair
The Pavilion Gardens, St John's Road, Buxton, Derbyshire SK17 6BE
13th – 16th May 2010

A fabulous collection of antiques and works of art go on sale at The 46th Annual Buxton
Antiques Fair at the Pavilion Gardens, from 13th – 16th May 2010.
‘We have something for everyone,’ says organiser Sue Ede, who successfully re-launched
this annual event last year. ‘From fine Georgian furniture to historic oil paintings,
Continental porcelain, contemporary art, sculpture, fine silver, English pottery, stylish Art
Nouveau metalwork, chic 1940s jewellery and all kinds of fascinating objets d’art.’
Now in its 46th year, The Buxton Antiques Fair is one of the most prestigious events of the
antiques calendar. ‘The fair has always been one of the highlights of the spring season for the
whole of the UK art and antiques market,’ explains Sue. ‘Visitors come from across the
north and west of England to view and buy. And this year I am delighted to be bringing a
number of new exhibitors to add an extra dimension to the range of art and antiques for sale’.
Sixty specialist dealers occupy room-set style stands within the charming setting of The
Pavilion Gardens building, with its adjacent restaurant and coffee bar.
Everything Vetted
All exhibits on sale at the fair are vetted for quality and authenticity by a committee of
experts. Exhibits are offered in a condition ready for people's homes and private collections.
'This ensures that buyers can make their purchases with confidence and is the mark of a good
quality fair,' explains Sue, who appreciates that anyone who invests in fine quality antiques
needs that kind of reassurance.
