The Celebrity Antiques Road Trip series filmed an episode at Oxford on High in July. Sitting on the steps of the centre are one of the BBC TV’s show’s regular antiques experts, David Harper, left, and, right, former Olympic sprinter Linford Christie, with Caroline Henney, middle, a vintage costume jeweller at the antiques centre.
Dealer Vincent Page, the new owner of Antiques on High in Oxford, which was saved from closure earlier this year thanks to a tweet from ATG news reporter Laura Chesters regarding its sale, has been busy since his purchase in August.
Talking to ATG, Page said: “The business has seen a pronounced upturn in sales in all sectors of our dealers’ stock-lines. The centre has undergone substantive changes with the counter being moved further back into the store supported by an 18th century oak dresser placed behind it against the wall. This creates a more spacious and relaxed feeling as customers walk into the shop.
