The Estate | 7—11 March
Bidding is closing on The Estate, our ever-changing, get-it-before-it-is-gone treasure trove of antiques, mid-century and contemporary design.
The grounding presence of a sideboard is something every interior should consider and this catalogue features a few remarkable ones, including a Rosando Brothers piece taking centre stage.
No respectable mid-century home would be complete without Eames and in this catalogue we have plenty, including original high back lounger, and DSS chairs.
While fans of the playful designs of Marcel Wanders should check out this pair of ‘Cyborg’ chairs, among others.
Of course, we continue to bring an exciting range of kitchenalia including teapots and kettles, fruit bowls and more.
Explore the full catalogue online, visit us at our Mount Eden Gallery to see these items in person, and place your highest bids now.
