HISTORIC DECORATION CONSULTANCY SERVICE

Historic Decoration offers advice and assistance on the restoration and reinterpretation of period houses.

It can be a time-consuming task to find the correct fabric for a Jacobean drawing room, suitable handles for Georgian doors or locate an expert who can sympathetically restore a family heirloom.

We source antiques and works of art across the historical spectrum from antiquity to contemporary.

We have found antiques and works of art for a large number of satisfied clients worldwide over 30 years and have built up a wide range of contacts, which allows us to find the right piece at the right price.
