The antique season in Ireland is lifting off and those who get their kicks from an auction fix will find plenty of action now that January is almost done.
Immediate upcoming choices at Sheppard's Irish Auction House in Durrow, Co Laois, on Tuesday and Wednesday and at Woodward Auctioneers in Cork next Saturday include elegant Georgian and Regency furniture, marble chimneypieces, garden sculpture and furniture, longcase clocks and even an old carved stone statue of St Peter.
