London shares - midday features

The internet has been a godsend for collectors, Links of London Jewellery opening up a global market in a cornucopia of categories, from stamps to coins, porcelain figurines to vintage toys. One of the best destinations is iCollector - stylish, compact and resourceful, it has links to 350 of the world's leading auction houses, Links of London Charm with the facility to bid live at "real-time" auctions. You can browse individual catalogues or pinpoint specific items at regular dealers with the powerful search facility: if it's art you're after, go to the UK's Marlborough Fine Art Gallery and pick up a John Piper screenprint (Foliate Heads II costs Pounds 1,800). Graphics-heavy, slow-loading pages are notorious on auction sites, but iCollector manages to keep the visuals up to speed. A must for any collectorBlack & Pink Friendship Bracelet.
