He is searching for a ceiling. Not just any old ceiling but an exuberant work of art in lath and plaster fashioned by master craftsmen in the first decade of the 17th century. Today it ought by rights to be a museum piece, preserved for the nation. Instead, it has disappeared. There's something decidedly funny going on here. The ceiling in question has been missing since Britain's national treasures were hidden away in secret locations at the outbreak of the Second World War to protect them from destruction during the blitz or pillage in the event of enemy invasion. But how on earth do you lose a full-sized Jacobean ceiling?!!" IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH. Codice articolo 2304
