London, day three: Sightseeing and relaxing
We had the opportunity to visit our customer Lord Rumi Verjee, who owns and operates Thomas Goode & Co., purveyor of dishware for the Queen of England. He gave us a behind the scenes tour of his shop, and I really regret not photographing the old catalogs, with their hand painted patterns.
Very cool, an old timey automatic door. Step on the platform and counter weights open the doors.
Another stop was The New Craftsmen. It was nice to see new British design and craft.
We passed by Marble Arch station every day, and I couldn’t help but really enjoy these designs on the tube walls.
We visited the Victoria and Albert Museum. Love these David Kirkness chairs.

A cute little street, a nice family and lovely evening.
