Spring fair antiques show set to get underway at Birmingham NEC next month

Classic Antique Fairs is set to celebrate spring at Birmingham NEC's hall eleven on Friday, March 28 until Sunday, March 30, bringing together many of the UK’s most respected dealers, who will be showcasing some of the best-known names in the antiques and art worlds.

Classic Antique Fairs has expanded the Fairs being offered in 2025 in Hall Eleven at the NEC to also include the Summer Fair on Friday, July 4 and the Winter Fair set to take place on Friday, November 28.

“The Spring Fair at the NEC offers the collector and the bargain hunter a broad spectrum of exceptional pieces to choose from," said John Andrews of Classic Antique Fairs.

"It's the perfect excuse to treat yourself in the knowledge that the expertise of the dealers is assured by the trade associations of BADA, LAPADA and CINOA.”

To celebrate the Centenary of the Art Deco or Art Moderne Movement, the majority of the over 70 dealers exhibiting have some key pieces from the Art Deco period to show collectors, including Val St Lambert vases by Charles Graffart and Joseph Simon from Mark West Glass; Art Deco furniture by Harry & Lou Epstein, Hille, Waring & Gillow from Jeroen Markies Art Deco. Georg Jensen from Dansk Silver, signed Art Deco jewellery from Plaza Jewellery and T Robert. Lalique vases depicting Bacchantes and Ondine and sculpture by Pierre le Faguays from Solo Antiques. David Hickmet Fine Art offer exceptional pieces by Josef Lorenzl and a selection of Lalique car mascots.

"If Art Deco is not your thing, there are also pieces from the Roman period to the 1950s for sale," added Mr Andrews. 

"A selection of disciplines and dealers include Treen from Opus Antiques: 19th Century animal portraits from Blackbrook Gallery; Glass from Glass of Ages; Ceramics from Scottow Antiques and Julian Eade, Porcelain from Marmaduke’s Emporium; Art Nouveau glass from M & D Moir; Silver from Stephen Kalms Antiques and Marsh Antiques; Watches from Scarab and Les Petits Tresors; Clocks from Kembery Antique Clocks; Tea Caddies from Mark Goodger Antiques. Sculpture from Garret and Hurst, and Design items from Scottish and Scandinavian Design. Or perhaps Fabergé amethyst chick pendant from T. Robert would be the Easter present."
