Decorative Antiques & Textiles Fair Autumn 2010

Decorative Antiques & Textiles Fair Autumn 2010

Well-known for 25 years as the friendliest and most exciting Fair in town, the thrice-yearly Decorative Antiques & Textiles Fair is the UK’s leading antique and C20th design fair for interior decoration. Perfect for design-lovers seeking special one-off statement pieces, architects and decorating professionals sourcing the ideal item of furniture for a client, and anyone who prefers an individual look in their home; this is one of the most interesting events in the busy September design season. More than 130 dealers will gather in the famous marquee in Battersea Park to offer unusual and practical furniture, decorative accessories such as lighting, mirrors and textiles, works of art and quirky objets and collectors’ items from the 17th to 21st centuries.

For the first time ever, due to unprecedented demand for space from the antiques trade, exhibitors’ stands will occupy part of the foyer. The Kennel Club Art Gallery exhibition will take centre stage, displayed on a purpose-built exhibition space in the middle of the Foyer. Works on loan will encompass pictures, sculpture, objets d’art and unusual historical items, as well as articles from the Club’s extensive Library. The Kennel Club Art Gallery is open to the public at their Mayfair headquarters from Monday to Friday.
