Miller's Antiques Handbook & Price Guide 2022-2023

Product Information

This year's edition features special sections on tribal art, affordable jewellery and Hornsea ceramics. Among her other obsessions she numbered dogs, Scottish rugby and – above all – Bruce Springsteen: she travelled the world to see The Boss live.

Compiled by Judith Miller, world-renowned antiques expert and co-founder of the book, the guide features more than 8,000 antiques. I was homesick for Scotland so I bought Monart glass, then I got obsessed by Ronald Stennett-Willson’s candlesticks, then Murano birds.

She wrote a monthly feature in Canadian Home and Country magazine and was a regular contributor to US Traditional Home and Country Living.

Born Judith Henderson Cairns in Galashiels, Scotland, Miller first began collecting antiques while studying history at the University of Edinburgh. She also wrote the antiques column for The Scotsman magazine and a monthly feature for the Financial Times weekend supplement "House and Home". Biographies of designers and factories give the background information you need to help date and value objects, while special ‘Judith Picks’ sections give fascinating background and valuation details for particularly interesting or unusual objects. This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees.

She is an expert on the BBC's Antiques Roadshow and co-hosts the popular BBC series The House Detectives, ITV's Antiques Trail, and Discovery's It's Your Bid. Millions were spent kitting out Chilston with bathrooms, footmen in tails, chambermaids in mop caps and 200 candles blazing each night. After my delightful event at The Blanchard Collective, I felt compelled to recommend it all to you here. In-depth features explaining how to value and become an expert along with biographies of designers and factories provide essential background information to help date and value objects.

The thrill and excitement of discovering a valuable find can also spark an interest in developing a skill and a technique for collecting. Such finds have prompted people to get their items valued, or at least checked, before making the decision to let them go. Lots of people were doing up houses at the time, so I wrote Period Details and, again, the book took off.
