    Brilliant, since I stumbled across Toby’s output, I can’t stop watching. I’ve loved the Wallace Collection since a school trip in the 1950s and visit periodically, knowing little detail but bathing in the magnificence of the armour and arms exhibits. To have experienced (albeit second hand via KZread) Toby explain, share his knowledge and passion has re-lit that little schoolboy’s wonder and awe. So much so that I’ve pre-ordered his latest book on English armour. At a very young age I collected a few beautifully detailed and decorated model knights, probably 1/30th scale, die cast metal. I recall they were ridiculously expensive and weeks of pocket money’s worth for each model, the mounted knights being the most costly. When I went my first school (I must have been coming up to 5 years old) we called that ‘infant school’ in London, no nursery schools or pre-school for the working class in the immediate post-war England, I soon brought three of the small Collection to school to show them off. It was my first experience of heart break to discover at the close of play that somebody had stolen them, I was distraught. They were recovered days later after a bit of a hue and cry and the miscreant chastised by teacher but this varmint had snapped off arms, lost helmets and generally ruined these exquisite apples of my eyes, I never replaced them or asked for birthday presents of these wonderful pieces again and concentrated on Dinky Toys until “I grew out of toys”. Later, I did have an Airfix (or was it Revel?) plastic kit of the ‘Black Knight of Nuremberg’, which I painstakingly glued and assembled and my fascination with the subject has remained to this day but I do miss those wonderful little models which in the schoolboy world of post-war Britain touched me more than the recent military conflict material which obsessed schoolboys and filled our TV screens and cinemas, though being partial to models, naturally I had a large fleet of army vehicles (still got them all in the collection). Phew, apologies for,that long winded dribble, all I actually intended to say was “Thanks Toby, you’ve fanned that dim flame of a 5 year old’s interest in this amazing world”.

    If it's true 3 pieces of English porcelain predate Boettger's by about 100 years - apparently, the piece in Buck House mysteriously disappeared - I'd hazard a guess Ehrenfried Walter von Tschirnhaus purchased the process on one of his visits. Like Leibniz, whom he knew at the Royal Society, this gentleman was also a sneaky type & as early as 1704 he showed "porcelan" to Leibniz's secretary & so one naturally asks: where did it come from?

    What a magnificent video! The way both Helen and Jûrgen described and explained Boulle´s fantastic technique was a pleasure. Thanks to the Colnaghi Foundation and the staff of the Wallace collection for making these videos. Unfortunately, I will never be able to visit the Wallace collection, therefore this is a real treat. I recommend to all fine furniture lovers Alexandre Pradere´s book "French Furniture Makers" published by Sotheby's
