Ferdinand Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 (edited) This is Window Shopping as in "looking at all the things I do not need to buy".

SteamyTea Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Probably best to think of these showrooms as art galleries, where the supplier is paying for room space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferdinand Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 (edited) 6 hours ago, Onoff said: What is this? I like it. "The Last English Rose". Original owned or exhibited by Saatchi I think https://www.saatchiart.com/art/Painting-The-Last-English-Rose/393151/2446991/view "Harper & Deyong offer a range of luxury artworks suitable for every room in the house. If you like this piece but are looking for a different colour speak to the team on 01494 722 880. " If I had that sort of money to spend it would not be a print; I would be looking for an original, or to commission, or something more like an original Moore or Frink where I know it will not get commoditised or rejected later by the artist (see Banksy); I think the contemporary art market is a racket, both in galleries and auctions, and especially in IP. BTW f you sell this print on, you will have to pay 4% to the artist. Ferdinand Edited June 2, 2019 by Ferdinand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocster Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Let’s be honest 7k for a shitty print is a joke . Some of the bespoke furniture was really nice . You sit on it and go “ this is nice “ Stand up and flip over the attached label , see the price and go “ F me “ Some of the furniture was more expensive than all my glazing ?

PeterW Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 47 minutes ago, pocster said: Let’s be honest 7k for a shitty print is a joke . Depends on definition .... I have purchased both prints and originals and it’s fair to say a lot in that range will appreciate in value. Around 4 years ago I got offered a Lowry original, 6x4” pencil sketch, for £18,000........ I declines, despite it being available on 36 months interest free etc ... 18 months later it resold for £28,500...... same with Christian Hoook, originals were £2-3k and then he won Sky Portrait artist of the year and some of those original works are now worth upwards of £35k. You either buy art for investment or pleasure, never both ..!! I’d never buy from a glazing showroom either ... buy via a decent gallery or dealer and at least get the provenance on the pieces..!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocster Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 Well ! Install is due Monday ! . This is all glazing except the front door . Should be interesting!! . To avoid a crane they want to winch in the 250kg glass doors through the main doorway opening then lower to underground dungeon . Good luck with that !! Better than Xmas so won’t be able to sleep Sunday night !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocster Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 The rest of the glazing ? arrives tomorrow. So in theory all done apart from front door . Photos to follow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony C Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I will love to see IQ glass in place! I am comparing all the slim sliding doors, including IQ glass, fineline etc. The cortizo cor vision system seems to be more reasonable and still looks pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went for the Cortizo and installed a few weeks ago. Seems good for the money, will be very slim sightlines once the floor and plasterboard etc is in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
