Antique Dealers
David Jones Antiques, Salisbury, UK - Specialist in 16th and 17th Century oak furniture.
Early Oak Specialists, UK - Dealer specializing in Medieval to Jacobean furniture.
Huntington Antiques, Stow-on-Wold, UK - Specialists in early furniture and art - they describe themselves as "a museum with price tags". No prices on the web page, but I suspect "if you have to ask, you can't afford it".
