19th/20th Century Design

Welcome to our 19th & 20th Century Decorative Art and Design department. The market for 19th and 20th-century furniture and decorative art is experiencing a surge in popularity. There is a high demand for renowned names such as Charles and Ray Eames, Ercol, G-Plan, Arne Jacobsen, Mouseman, and Martin Ware amongst many others.  We hold dedicated sales and single owner collections throughout the year.

Ceramics and studio pottery by celebrated artists like Hans Coper (1920-1981) and Lucie Rie (1902-1995) have become highly sought-after in the studio pottery market. We recently achieved remarkable results in our auctions, including an 8-inch high stoneware Spade vase selling for £26,000, a 7-inch Thistle vase for £18,000, three porcelain footed bowls fetching over £70,000, and a 15-inch high Hourglass form vase realizing £82,000.

If you're interested in consigning a work to one of our 19th/20th Century Design sales, we'd be delighted to offer you a complimentary valuation.
