Someone came in and said that last week’s centrepiece from my window display (two Newlyn square vases in yellow and blue, with black horses on them) had been sold by him at Mallams, where I bought them. He then recognised another couple of things he’d sold, and announced that I obviously had very good taste! I suggested that if he had anything else, he might like to bring it straight to me and we would then both save on Mallam’s commission!
