Sadly, sadly, Sunday is the final day of the London Antique rug and Textile Art Fair, (open from 11am to 8pm till January 25th). If you are in London come visit our stand in this wonderful fair full of treasures. It's been such a treat seeing old friends of Cornucopia, meeting our subscribers and welcoming new ones.
