The National Glass Collectors Fair
(U K), is organised and run by
Specialist Glass Fairs Ltd. |
| |
 |
| |
| The company was established by Patricia Hier in 1991,
to meet the demand for an antiques and collectors’ fairs that
catered for people with a specialist interest in glass. |
| |
| At its inception our fair was the only antiques and
collectables fair to specialise in glassware. Because of our dedication
to putting on a premium event, we have attracted exhibitors that sell
some of the best examples of glass available. In fact many of our
dealers have chosen to exhibit exclusively at our events. |
| |
| The success of our fairs can be attributed to our insistence
that we do our utmost to put on the best events possible. Whether
it’s our selection of dealers, the quality of stock we insist
upon, or the presentation of exhibitors stands, we aim to provide
visitors to our fairs with a rewarding experience. The consistency
in the quality of glass on display continues to attract visitors each
year, including a number of collectors from overseas. |
| |
We have long realised that one of the most important
factors in running an
all-glass fair, is the variety of glass available. Because of the
varying tastes and demands of dealers and collectors, we are careful
to select exhibitors that will offer the greatest variety and balance
of merchandise. By necessity, this has meant adapting to the increasing
scarcity of the more traditionally popular types of glassware. As
our exhibitors have had to adapt their stock to include quality examples
of 20th Century glass, it has been necessary for us to include more
exhibitors who specialise in this type of glassware. These dealers
tend to sell anything from Art Deco and Art Nouveau through to 50’s,
60’s and 70’s Studio Glass. Although we do not allow the
sale of modern reproductions, we are extremely keen to exhibit the
work of contemporary artists. Consequently, visitors to our fair have
never had such a variety of choice, and our reputation has become
such that many dealers, from both Europe and the United States, are
eager to exhibit at our fairs. |

| It is hoped that the same dedication that has gone
into running the National Glass Collectors Fair, will create an equally
successful Website to compliment our events. |
| |
| Of course this will not be possible without feedback
from visitors to this site. Those of you with comments or suggestions
