(4 stars) - History of Interior Design in a nutshell
A beautiful high quality tape packed full of information. Shows examples of pieces to complement the narrative. Excellent for Interior Design history.

(3 stars) - Antiques intro DVD
Although quite intersting due to subject of antiques, found
the "host" rather monotous in tone and enthusiasm.Repetitive
also in some places.
Would prefer to buy "The antiques roadshow" if available.

(4 stars) - Not bad
If you've got money to spend on antiques I would buy this video. It has alot of information contained in three separate videos on one DVD. The first is a general intro to European and Australian furniture, silver, and porcelain (not in that order). The other two videos go into more detail into English and French antiques. Unless you get REAL LUCKY you will not find these pieces in the U.S. at a garage sale or estate sale. The narrator is from Sotheby's, need I say more. It' is interesting though. To get the full benefit requires more than one viewing because it's packed full of information -- no fluff here. The Antique Roadshow is much more down to earth than this video, but if your a serious collector or looking to be one, I would recommend this DVD.
