Our recent sale included uplifting pieces to transport us away from our rainy London saleroom into a more colourful haven. This included a bold Caribbean market scene of tropical fruits for some sunny inspiration and inspiring Nigerian Gelede artwork, in celebration of the importance of femininity and womanhood. Yesterday’s sale also featured more classically European interiors, with an emphasis on beautifully marble-topped chests and French designed Gueridons.
