Mixing antiques from different parts of the world can work very well. Not all styles mix well, but 18th and 19th century English and French furniture mixed very well.
Six from a harlequin set of eight, last quarter 18th century English elm country Hepplewhite dining chairs, with a handsome first quarter 19th century French figured elm, two plank farmhouse table.
Absolutely beautiful. Classic lines with unequalled style, well that’s my opinion.
Late 18th Century French fruitwood (cherry) centre/serving/sofa/hall/entrance table. AA1934
Of good deep proportions and fantastic overall faded colour and patination. The rectangular cleated top above a shaped frieze, housing three drawers, all the original turned handles and knotted elm drawer linings, resting on long slight shaped cabriole legs.
The serpentine shaped tilt top, retaining the original rear brass catch. Above an ebonised and gilt decorated support column, resting on shaped out-swept legs.
Still to be cleaned up, old chips black wax filled and coloured over.
The well patinated three plank moulded pear wood top, above an oak base.
The long single drawer retaining the original steel drop handle, resting on fine turned legs, joined by a matching turned ‘H’ stretcher, with a turned fruitwood central finial.
A Rare and Unusual Retro Book-Matched Figured Walnut Central Joined Adjustable Nest of Tables on turned tapered legs. The circular tops having the original coloured formica edging.
Dealing in antiques for the past 30 years and being in the trade now for 40 years, I have started to add a few contemporary pieces we create for Australian Interior Designers, Architects and Private Customers. Sometimes a customer needs something that has never been made before. The majority of my stock has always been quite unique, so why not provide a modern option of the same quality.
Take a look at mine and Andrews modern creations and consider a unique contemporary piece to mix with your beautiful antiques.
This collection immediately captures your attention with their unquestionable class, elegance, style and clean lines.
