Welcome
A big welcome to my website!
Robin Butler, who trades in the name of Butler’s Antiques, has been the leading
expert in the subject of antique wine accessories for over 30 years, although
his hands-on experience in the world of antiques goes back to 1963. His books (see below) demonstrate his passion for this niche subject, and he has brought all that accumulated wealth of knowledge to this website.
Butler’s Antiques caters equally for those whose enjoyment is wine as it does for those who collect antiques. It is for this reason that there is a strong emphasis on practicality - decanters that can and should be used on the dinner table, for example. Equally important is that all items on this website are what they say they are – that all dates and descriptions carry a guarantee that they are as described. It is not surprising, therefore, that Butler’s Antiques is the world leader in its field.
We strive to please our customers by providing excellent value, and friendly service. If you see something which interests you, please do enquire about it. We welcome all telephoned and e-mail enquiries, and do our best to make purchasing as easy as possible by answering all e-mails quickly, making debit card transactions quick and easy, and dispatching weekday orders within 24 hours.
