Furniture; English, Continental and Oriental Pottery and Porcelain; Glass; Silver; Metalware; Textiles; Oils, Watercolours, Prints; Books; Rugs and Carpets; Lighting; Clocks, Watches, Scientific instruments; Jewellery; Objets D'art.

First Floor

The market in decorative antiques is growing with expanding interest in interiors and today's furnishing ideas incorporate a wide variety of items. There is a new generation of antique buyers interested in the best of 20th century art and design, and our contemporary jewellery centre offers a stylish complement to the quality antique jewellery displayed on the Ground Floor.

 
Modern reproduction items will not be accepted. The date-lined section will be clearly marked and we ask that all items are clearly dated on the ticket and marked with an accurate description.
