25.01.2022 We have had many enquiries about rugs and carpets lately so are please to now have a couple in stock including this vintage silk runner (signed by the weaver) and a more traditional geometric pattern rug. #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #persiancarpets

24.01.2022 We have been told that these two hand painted barrels were originally for storing olives. They were converted to flower pot stands probably around the turn of the 1900 and one features flowers and the other nautical themes. #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #flowerstands #paintedbarrels

23.01.2022 Warwick Oakman Antiques will have an amazing Exhibition table made from New Zealand native timbers c 1880 at the Fair this year. Exhibition tables were made by... the best cabinet makers to both showcase their talent and ability, but to also show the extraordinary timbers native to the "new world". #tasmanianantiquesfair #exhibitiontable #wawickoakmanantiques See more

17.01.2022 Something for the horse lovers, a saddle rack and tack room pegs from St Albans Park, Victoria. Phar Lap was hidden at St Albans Park in November 1930 the night before he won the Melbourne Cup. Perhaps these items were used by Phar Lap during his stay at these stables. #longfordantiques #antiqestasmania #pharlap #melbournecup

16.01.2022 Martin McBain from The Pictorial Collection has been exhibiting at the Tasmanian Antiques Fair since we first started 20 years ago. Among some of the paintings... he will have for sale this year is this lovely Tasmanian Landscape by Gladstone Eyre titled A Quiet Riverscape, c1895. #antiques #tasmanianantiquesfair #gladstoneeyre #tasmanianlandscape See more

16.01.2022 Longford Show is on tomorrow! After your visit to the Show, come and visit Wagtails, Somerville Country Selections Gallery and Longford Antiques. Somerville Gallery is having a Big Sale...

15.01.2022 If you are looking for a great bedroom chair this slipper chair may be just the thing. Recently reupholstered in a green and white stripped fabric the cedar framed chair looks elegant with a touch of modern styling. #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #cedarcahir

15.01.2022 This two drawer side table would be perfect to hold a lamp and wine glass by your comfortable chair. It is a late Georgian piece made from mahogany with ivory knobs and has ebony stringing and fine square tapering legs with original gilt brass castors. #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #mahoganysidetable

14.01.2022 Dress up your collection of porcelain with these glittering pieces. Made in England during the early 1840, they are all hand decorated with gold in elaborate patterns. #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #giltporcelain

13.01.2022 Ebonised furniture has been around since the 16th but was most popular during the Regency and early Victorian periods. This occasional table was probably designed for use by a lady with its revolving tray on the pedestal to hold cottons and other sewing items. It is hand painted and gilded, and we think particularly lovely! #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #ebonisedfurniture

12.01.2022 Diamonds anyone? Leigh from Antique and Unique Jewels in NSW has an amazing collection of gem set jewellery to tempt you this year. Among her treasures is this exquisite diamond set bracelet. #tasmanianantiquesfair #antiquejewellery #diamonds #gems

11.01.2022 Today is the last opportunity to visit the Tasmanian Antiques Fair at the Albert Hall in Launceston. We are open from 10 and close at 4pm. come Along and have a look at the amazing collections of Antiques on offer.

10.01.2022 We have never come across a Campbells Pottery vase this size before. Made in the 1930, the vase is a staggering 40cm high and is signed John Campbell Tasmania on the base. #longfordantiques #campbellspottery #localpottery #tasmaniapottery

10.01.2022 A quick trip to the Evandale market last weekend resulted in Winnie and Holly finding the perfect dog vests made by Wagtails Workshop, a local Longford business. They think they look pretty smart and are looking forward to parading in a dog park soon! #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #pugs #wagtailsworkshop

10.01.2022 Trout fishing season is here and with the glorious weather lately you may be tempted to try your luck. This vintage wooden fishing reel may be just what you need. Made in England in the early 1900s, we are sure it would have some great fishing stories to tell! #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #fishingreel

09.01.2022 A sneek peak of this Victorian gents chair I have just finished for Longford Antiques. See it at next weekends Launceston Antiques Fair.

07.01.2022 Woolmers Estate is hosting an art exhibition by Wayne Brookes. The exhibition runs from 1 December to 14 December 2018. Wayne will be painting in the gallery ...all week, so this is a great opportunity to go and see his beautiful painting and watch the artist at work. The exhibition can be found in the Nigel Peck Gallery and is open from 11am to 4pm daily.

05.01.2022 Thank you to everyone for your warm wishes and messages after we announced we are closing the shop. We have just over a fortnight to go with our 30% clearing sale and there are still plenty of wonderful things to buy including this Victorian mahogany half tester double bed.

05.01.2022 So, maybe you were a bit overwhelmed by our last post. Join us on Sunday to hear Roger Barns (aka the knees) "Third Choice Suite", an epic programmatic work full of battle scenes, thwarted love and kinship.

04.01.2022 Warwick Oakman from Warwick Oakman Antiques is excited to be exhibiting at the Fair this year after a couple of years absence. Among his treasures is this superb Sheffield plate Regency period Egyptian revival wine cooler. #antiques #tasmanianantiquesfair #warwickoakmanantiques

04.01.2022 As I was leaving to come to the shop this morning I was torn between staying home and enjoying the glorious day in the garden or opening the shop. Somehow the shop won so I will be here until 4pm. #longfordantiques

04.01.2022 Robert and Catherine from Longford Antiques have a particularly impressive pair of ruby glasses vases featuring Mary Gregory style enamel decoration ready to bring to the Tasmanian Antiques Fair this year. #tasmanianantiquesfair #rubyglass #marygregory

03.01.2022 For the avid newspaper reader we have this fantastic newspaper or magazine stand made in solid brass. It was probably made in England in the late Victorian/Edwardian period and 4 compartments for storage. #longfordantiques #antiquestasmania #brassmagazineholder

03.01.2022 After 30 years of living in this amazing house we have decided to put the Jolly Farmer on the market.
