The business was founded in Bath by Andrew James Dando in about 1915 and continued by his son Gordon who became one of the leading provincial ceramics dealers. Now in the third generation the shop has been run since 1993 by Andrew Dando and his wife Janice, and displays a large selection of antique pottery & porcelain dating from 1700 to about 1870, with a price range of £20 to £ 10,000.

During August 2002 the business was moved to new premises in the centre of Bradford on Avon, just 7 miles from Bath, but without the parking and traffic problems associated with Bath.

Andrew trained with his father Gordon for 15 years and now serves on the vetting committees of many of the leading Antiques Fairs in the UK, including : Olympia (June & November), and is currently Chairman of Ceramic Vetting at the NEC Birmingham 'Antiques for Everyone' fairs.

Members of the British Antique Dealers Association (BADA) since the mid 1950's (both Gordon & Andrew have served as regional representative), the business has always been run to high standards of integrity and all items are fully guaranteed in both authenticity and condition.
