THE RECLAIMERS - TONIGHT BBC2 8.30PM
See the world of salvage exposed like never before - as dealers reveal all on camera. They deal (and agree to impossible deadlines), they travel (and nearly don't come back), they buy (and reveal trade secrets), they dismantle (and damage some of the kit), they restore (and make sure there is no blood left on things), they sell (and seem unaturally happy about dropping their prices) . . . it's all there.
OK, it's easy to be cynical . . . but full marks go to Wall To Wall TV who made the programme, to the dealers who were brave enough to stick their necks above the reclaimed parapet, and to BBC Two for commissioning it.
We hope The Reclaimers is a huge success and that this benefits the trade in general as well as the featured businesses.
Please feel free to add comments you have about the programme to the Salvo Forum 'The Reclaimers' trade page.

 BEDOUIN AT THE DECORATIVE ANTIQUES FAIR
THIS is the second year that Chris Thornton of Bedouin in Sussex has exhibited at October Decorative Antiques & Textiles Fair in Battersea Park, London UK.
Over a hundred standholders include the likes of Jane Walton's garden antiques and Augustus Brandt's upmarket woodwork. This year the fair has no dateline, which adds rather than detracts to the melee of goods on offer, most of which were antique, some decidedly repro, and some designer shabby chic - but then, hey, who's counting? This show is for designers and dealers not collectors.
The fair has a small exhibition of wallpapers from 1560 to the present, from the archives of Cole & Son, which is well worth a look. It explains why the Brits lagged behind the French at the turn of the 19th century due to a wallpaper tax which lasted from 1712 to 1836. There are examples of papers made by Edward Crace and designed by Pugin for the new Palace of Westminster in 1840. And did you know that Harry Potter invented the rotary wallpaper printing machine in Darwen Lancashire, and patented on 9th December 1839.
Chris Thornton has family connections in Sri Lanka, including a tea plantation - 'It's tiny, only fifty acres, not enough tea to export,' he says - and it was his frequent visits and the Sri Lankan's quality of architectural design and their antiques which gave him the idea of dabbling in the first place. 'The Portuguese got there in the sixteenth century, then the Dutch took over and then the Brits,' Chris said, 'but the Sri Lankan's themselves have always seemed to have a good design sense and adapted to western styles like 1930's art deco minimalist with ease.'
On the Bedouin stand, brought from Sri Lanka are a Gents railway station clock from (£2,200 plus £600 to get working, from Colombo), a very old bronze and iron oil lamp, a frail termite-ridden buddha remnant, a Matisse-like carved granite group of two heads of indeterminate age but old (£875), and some nice furniture. English stuff includes an iron lattice window (£950) and some big thick glass lead-acid battery tanks (£250ea). There is also has an antique Congolese chaise-longue covered in leather, probably from an African exotic animal.
[Photo shows Chris feeling a table while a prospective trade buyer looks on
The Fair is on till Sunday 10 October

DECLAN AT DECOREX
VICTORIAN Wood Works was a major standholder at the London interior design show Decorex, held at The Royal Hospital in Chelsea last week.
Accompanied by Phil Wilson, long time sales and marketing director at VWW, and Max Edwards, recently-joined designer, MD Declan Molloy worked the floor, or rather floors, of finely finished sample panels of top quality reclaimed, seamlessly moving from Conran to Vogue to New York to Croatia, as the champagne flowed. The stand, or possibly a panel of the new Harrods floor (extreme left chevron in the bigger image), won a BIDA design award at the show, much to Phil's delight.
Mr. Molloy, recently described by a prominent home interest mag as a genial tree sprite, was effusive. 'This is the only show we do, and for us it really is the only show in town,' he said. 'That's why we make a big effort here.' Certainly, all the design mags were there (Country Homes, English Home, Grand Designs, Homes & Gardens, House & Garden, Interior Design - complete with new editor Gary Mason formerly of Period Living - and World of Interiors) as too was ACID, Chesney's (all new modern) and Stuart Interiors (all repro?).
VWW are currently working on phase one, worth £237,000, of a four-phase revamp in hand-finished oak chevron of the menswear floor at Harrods in Knightsbridge, a stone's throw from VWW's new shop (the other new outlet is in Manhattan - tel 212 247 9600).
Victorian Wood Works have shifted away from new flooring back to reclaimed. Last year around half their output was new wood, but this year that will be down to fifteen per cent. 'We ended up playing the margins, with a warehouse and machinery that was only half working, so we decided to go back to our core strength,' Declan said. Grand.

SALVO LONDON HELPLINE 020 7749 9948
Call the Salvo London Helpline on 020 7749 9948 to raise a theft alert for architectural or garden antiques stolen in London. The Salvo London Helpline is sponsored by LASSCO.
What is a theft alert? Each theft alert contains details of an incident of the theft of architectural and garden antiques which has been reported to the police. The theft alert is sent by email to hundreds of dealers, a quarter of UK police forces, specialist auctioneers, and security professionals in the UK and overseas. The theft alert is also placed on www.theft-alerts.com and is printed in SalvoNEWS.
Salvo theft alerts do not contain victims' names, addresses or phone numbers, nor identifiable images of people, nor names of police officers (although police ID numbers are used).
What items can be included on theft alerts? Any fixture or fitting from a house or garden, architectural antiques, bathrooms, bygones, carpets, church and churchyard fixtures, doors, flagstones, furniture, garden ornament, millstones, mirrors, roof tiles and slates, sculpture, statues, staddlestones, stained glass, tapestries, troughs, and war memorials.
What is the chance of a recovery? The recovery rate between 1995 - 2001 was 14 per cent. Since 2001 the recovery rate seems to have dropped (although Salvo has not kept statistics since 2001). This may be because items stolen are now harder to identify, e.g. flagstones, millstones, staddle stones, and mass-produced iron seats.
In November 2003 Salvo approached LASSCO to support the creation of our first city helpline for victims of architectural theft in the London area. LASSCO, the London Architectural Salvage & Supply Co Ltd, based in Shoreditch London, was established in 1979 and is one of the the best known architectural salvage business in the UK. Adrian Amos, founder of LASSCO, was on the trade steering committee from 1993 to 1995 which agreed to what eventually became the Salvo Code, and they were the first to join it in 1995.
Why have a helpline? Salvo receives very few theft alerts from London so we thought a telephone helpline could encourage more people to raise theft alerts. This may result in more recoveries, which may act as a deterrent to theft. Also Salvo theft alerts in London will now be free of charge, thanks to LASSCO. (Salvo theft alerts are free in other areas of the UK where the police subscribe.) Two weeks ago Scotland Yard was informed of the establishment of the helpline and the art and antiques squad immediately agreed to receive all Salvo Theft Alerts by email.
How will it work? Firstly, a London theft must be reported to the local police. After reporting the theft to the police the helpline number is telephoned and arrangements made to send details by email, post or fax to LASSCO. This can be done by the victim, by the police, or by someone who knows the victim, or a professional such as an insurer or solicitor. LASSCO will then raise a theft alert on the Salvo Theft Alert system, which will be emailed out to all Salvo subscribers (including other police forces, the Art Loss Register and Trace), will be printed in SalvoNEWS and will be sent to the Metropolitan Police Art and Antiques Squad for their information. The local police will also be informed so they know a theft alert has been raised.
The following information is needed to raise a theft alert:
- Date the item was last seen.
- The approximate location of the theft (eg W6 or Hammersmith)
- Description of the item, age, colour, material, repairs, alterations, and approximate size.
- Police station contact details and ID of responding officer or CID
- Police crime number or case number
Rewards may be offered, but only subject to conditions which require the goods to be returned and arrests made, unless permission is obtained from the Chief Constable to vary these conditions. Salvo and LASSCO will not take any part of any reward offered in the event of a recovery.
Recoveries take place when the police seize stolen items identified by a dealer or auctioneer, or at a trade fair, or seized on suspicion. Occasionally, if the goods are of high value, insurance companies handle the recovery. The Art Loss Register and Trace also handle recoveries. Salvo and LASSCO do not take part in recoveries. If items in a Salvo theft alert are recovered we ask the owner to inform Salvo or LASSCO so that the theft alert can be cancelled.
Salvo London Helpline 020 7749 9948
The link below is to a web page where it is possible for London victims to fill in a theft alert form online. This can be used by dealers, the police or anyone else on the victims behalf, provided all the information is known. This information will not appear immediately on the internet, but will be intercepted by LASSCO's staff who will raise a theft alert.

TRUDIE Coster died at home on the 1st April 2004, aged 52. She was Sam Coster's much-loved partner in life, and in their business at Mongers in Hingham, Norfolk, which they started together six years ago.
Trudie was friendly, witty, colourful and outgoing. Prior to moving to Norfolk she worked as a cloth agent in London. A magazine quoted Trudie as saying, 'Young handsome boys do the lifting - to which my manicured fingers bear witness'. Aside from the aesthetic qualities of old architectural pieces, she was a staunch salvageur from a practical point of view. 'We make compost and recycle wine bottles but the emphasis put on recycling is misplaced; it is better to reuse than recycle. If we were recycling we would be get an EU grant, but as dealers in salvage encouraging reuse we are viewed with suspicion and assumed to be conmen!'
Trudie was a kindred spirit amongst whose friends in the trade was the late Hazel Matravers. The last time I saw her was at H's funeral. One of my children commented, 'If there is a heaven, Trudie and Hazel will be up there drinking a glass of red wine in a sunny garden somewhere.' Be strong Sam. [TK]
The funeral will be held on Wednesday 14th March 2004 at 2.30pm at St Andrews Church, Hingham.
Cheques made payable to 'W C Littleproud Donations Account' sent to W C Littleproud & Son, Hale Road, Bradenham IP25 7RA, Norfolk, will go to the Cancer Ward at Norfolk and Norwich Hospital, and Macmillan Nurses.
