20 Antiques We Love This Month
A Pair Of Armchairs
This pair of 19th century French Napoleon round-backed armchairs from Blanchard Collective have been recently upholstered in a modern, versatile fabric. Ideal for any style of living space, we love the soft curved arm rests, supportive high back and dark wood feet.

A Decorative Bench
Either in a hallway or as a kitchen seating option, this European bench has a weathered look, perfect for adding a touch of warmth and texture to any home. Simple yet elegant, it has just four spindles on its back, reeded central carving and notched arms.

A Glazed Cabinet
This Eastern European wooden glazed cabinet is a classic example of a storage solution from years past. This one has been repainted in a matte, light grey colour and comes with a natural pine interior with three chunky shelves, newly glazed doors and locks. The cabinet frames are close to 100-years-old, so do expect to see some signs of wear.

A Large Sideboard
Both a practical and stylish choice for a dining room, this 18th-century Gustavian period sideboard features rounded corners with a shaped bottom profile. On the doors, you’ll find a rare, original hand-carved Scandinavian mythological folklore centre panel, featuring a Norse third eye inside a diamond, which symbolises wisdom. The piece dates from c.1790, too.

A Bobbin Chair
Ideal for a corner in a bedroom, this 19th-century chair features bobbin detail on the legs and back rest. It’s an antique item, but one which is in good condition, plus it’s been carefully restored to minimise the few marks which are consistent with its age.

A Library Cabinet
Ideal for extra storage, this solid, early-Victorian mahogany library cabinet is of the highest quality. The two large doors open up to an adjustable shelved interior, while the cupboard comes with the original key and locks, both of which work perfectly.

A Detailed Coffee Table
We love the rope twist detail on this high-quality coffee table, which dates back to the late 20th century. It has a thick frame and a large glass pane, both of which are in very good condition, while the design as a whole looks similar to a selection done by Fratelli Boffi.

A Bedside Cabinet
Made from pitch pine with bamboo details and a marble top, this Victorian bedside cabinet is in great condition. It’s stamped ‘Posschelle-Delalou, Bruxelles’ and is certainly different to anything typically British of its time. There’s plenty of storage, too, including two shelves and a drawer.
