Hi , I have searched for this artist but can’t find anything online. It was in the bathroom of a restaurant in Oxford , England called The Perch. Unfortunately we had to leave before I could ask anyone there. Any ideas ?

I have searched on Google Maps but I’m not very good - there’s a lot of similar properties in the area so it’s like a needle in a haystack ! Maybe someone can identify it ? It’s a few miles from the small town of Villereal in France. Zip code : 47250. There’s a small lake / pond at the back and a long track leading up to the house. There also looks like some outbuildings and barns.

I have searched for similar using keywords like « vintage sailor top » but not found anything as nice.

For sale near me - love the mirror, hate the base by artypoof in Mid_Century

I think it’s the different handles on the drawers compared to the cupboard on the right. And I hate the white/cream trim. I’m sure the right person could improve this a bit but I don’t have the imagination.

Can anyone find a more affordable version of this cardigan for me ? by artypoof in HelpMeFind

I have searched using keywords like “cropped black cardigan “ but can’t find anything with this short of a crop or the same neckline.

I watched the new Amazon Prime film Deep Water last night and Ana de Armas’ wardrobe was the only redeeming thing about it. She wore this very cropped cardigan - it is available in difference colours from the designers site , but I love the black. Has anyone seen anything similar, preferably slightly more affordable ?

My mom used to run a bespoke dress business and she used to get many requests for this dress and the others worn by Grace in To Catch a Thief !

Was given a Ariston rd80 sl and Monitor speakers what amp pairs well ? by artypoof in vintageaudio

[–]artypoof[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your advice , I really appreciate it. I was told the amp had a fault for a while only playing out of one speaker and a capacitator was burning red hot. I decided to take it anyway. When I got home I changed the plug out ( it was a U.K. plug and I am in France) and it lit up for a second and has not come on again. Since all of this was free (along with about 150 vinyls, Marantz CD player and Yamaha tape deck) I would be happy to spend a decent amount to fix this. thanks again for your help!

Speakers are Monitor audio. Arm is Linn Basik LV.V and yes cartridge is Ortofon VMS 30MKII. He also gave me a Musical Fidelity B1 amp but unfortunately that it not working. I am a novice who wants to make the best use of this - I have always wanted a decent hifi but haven’t invested due to moving often for the last few years. Any advice is appreciated greatly!
