Comprising of an unusually small 17th Century English Oak low dresser with an Italian Satyr figure to the right with a Flemish ebonized mirror behind, flanked by two 19th Century Chinese Water Colours on rice paper to each side.

Brownlow Interior Design @ Milton Wine

I sub-let the shop next door to Milton Wine Bar and keep part of the garage for displays.

‘Brownlow Interior Design’ dressed this months room.

However, will stay as over the Christmas and New Year period.

Barbara and Alexandra Brownlow did a fantastic job, bringing the space to life with my furniture, Imari and art, adding their signature parrots, French Louis Style settee, Colefax and Fowler curtains, brass floor lamp, Chinese blue & white umbrella stands, Bragg & Co jungle green lamps and Behruz Studios pure wool flat weave rug.

Thanks Alex & Barb for your fantastic display.

He mostly sells them without their shelving units, because that’s what most people want.
