When we save, restore and preserve items from the past, whether furniture or jewellery or buildings, it is about giving: giving to art, to history – to the future. We are creating a legacy, so that those who come after us may better understand where they came from, as did we. We are treasuring beauty, so that we can gift it to the next generation. For when you have an antique, you never truly own it; you are merely its custodian, charged with its protection. It really is a wonderful privilege.
