antiques fair

A strong opening day for the majority of exhibitors got the Spring Decorative Fair, held in Battersea Park from 7-12 May, off to a flying start. The week brought serious buyers, decorators working on projects, and trade customers looking for fine and unusual furniture, mirrors, lighting and elegant C20th furnishings. Art in various disciplines sold well including sets of prints; modernist objects and works of art proved very popular, with a notable interest in Brutalist designs; traditional English antiques and upholstery was in demand.
